Impacts of municipal wastewater effluent on seed banks, chemistry, and microorganisms of soils excavated from wetland impoundments designated for wildlife
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
To evaluate the effects of municipal wastewater effluent (WWE) and Missouri River water (MOR) as irrigation sources on soil chemistry, seed banks, and microorganisms, a field study was conducted in conjunction with a set of greenhouse studies...
Methods for high-resolution soil-landscape modeling in midwest upland landscapes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
. These methods were tested in the upland landscapes of northern Missouri. Sensors, especially DRS, successfully estimated profile clay and organic carbon. Peak functions were valuable for modeling profile clay content and covariates of clay. Coherent depth...
A tall tower wind investigation of northwest Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
With energy needs on the rise and our current energy consumption methods polluting the atmosphere, it is the right time to look at alternative forms of energy production. Six Tall Tower wind observation sites were studied in Northwestern Missouri...
Polyacrylamide amendment for erosion and runoff control on soils of differing characteristics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The use of anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) as a soil amendment is an emerging conservation practice. However, guidelines have not been developed with considerations of soil properties and topographic characteristics. The ...
Use of slow-release N fertilizer to control nitrogen losses due to spatial and climatic differences in soil moisture conditions and drainage in claypan soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
urea in relation to crop N uptake and environmental N loss under four drainage/irrigation treatments in a claypan soil in northeast Missouri. The treatments consisted of: 1) no irrigation or drainage (NIN), 2) no irrigation and drainage (NID), 3...
Elemental concentration changes in soil and stockpiled tall fescue leaves after liming
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
of stockpiled tall fescue. Others have predicted that liming will increase P and decrease aluminum (Al) availability to plants in the types of soils used in this study. Study sites were located at the University of Missouri's Southwest Center (SWC) and Bradford...
