Bed degradation of the lower Missouri River
(2013-06-04)
The phenomenon of bed degradation can be due to a multiplicity of causes, but ultimately reflects a change in either the sediment input or sediment transport capacity of a system. Causes for the accelerated rate of degradation of the lower Missouri...
Understanding the influence of a contextual factor, stigma consciousness: a barrier for underrepresented students in engineering
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
on racial/ethnic stigma consciousness on the indirect effect via engineering self-efficacy. A series of ANOVA and MANOVA were also conducted to determine whether demographic and contextual variables could explain racial/ethnic stigma consciousness, coping...

A test of differential GPS correction methods at Fort Huachuca, Arizona
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
in differential correction has previously proven unreliable. The effectiveness of base data acquired through use of a second field unit as an on-site base station was compared with the use of CORS. The accuracy of data differentially corrected using base data...
Delta soils of southeast Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2020)
"The Mississippi River Alluvial Valley is called the Delta region. The Delta includes parts of Missouri, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana. This report focuses on the Upper Delta in Southeast Missouri. It is one of the most fertile...
Development and evaluation of a site stormwater analysis calculator intended for the State of Missouri utilzing regional best management practices
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
impacts for their proposed development and redevelopment scenarios. The calculator utilizes the precipitation data from all weather stations in the State of Missouri reporting data to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA...
Materials study supporting thermochemical hydrogen cycle sulfuric acid decomposer design
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
A laboratory scale sulfuric acid decomposer simulator was constructed at the Nuclear Science and Engineering Institute at the University of Missouri- Columbia. The simulator was capable of producing the temperatures and corrosive environments...

Entrainment and transport of coarse stream bed material in a fluviokarst watershed, south-central Missouri : a tracer particle study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Plateau of south-central Missouri, and Bear Cave Hollow (BCH), one of TCC's surface drainage streams, bed load entrainment and transport dynamics of mainly siliciclastic material, was evaluated using hydrological measurements and 670 painted tracer...
The Effects of Anthropogenic Warming on Changes of Extreme Precipitation Over Kansas City Metropolitan Area
(2021)
an estimated $3 billion dollars in damage. These initial simulations used different landcover inputs to represent present-day, i.e., control, and historic land use as the other initial simulation. Then a suite of sensitivity experiments was designed...
Making the Frontier’s Anatomical Engineers: Osteopathy, A. T. Still (1828–1917), his Acolytes and Patients
(2020)
in Kirksville, Missouri, the school saw massive growth during the period from 1892 to 1898. Using student ledger books, I analyze the first students to determine who became osteopaths. Many of these students came to osteopathy as a second career, after having...

, degree of saturation, and sample conditioning method. Based on an analysis of significant factors reported in the literature, in this study, a series of procedural and functional changes were proposed to better describe F-T durability as a function...
Performance of Steel Pipelines Backfilled with Controlled Low-Strength Material (CLSM) under Seismic Wave Propagation and Reverse-Slip Fault Rupture
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
Seismic events may drastically damage buried pipelines affecting economy and
public safety. Traditionally, buried pipelines are bedded and backfilled with compacted
soils, which is labor intensive, time consuming, and ...
New slip and stress distributions hold implications for the next great earthquake in Cascadia
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Over the past decade, advances in detection of seismic tremor and slow slip have revealed a new spectrum of fault behavior in subduction zones around the world. These phenomena live between the mechanisms of brittle failure ...
Developing and Utilizing Multivariate Stochastic Wireless Channel Models
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)
Developing accurate channel models is paramount in designing efficient mobile communication systems. The focus of this dissertation is to understand the small-scale
fading characteristics, develop mathematical tools that ...
Quantifying suspended sediment loading in a mid-Missouri urban watershed using laser particle diffraction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
/water-quality stations were installed in a nested-scale watershed study design to capture differing land-use type influences on SSC. Mean SSCs were estimated to be 66.0, 70.0, and 86.0 [mu]l/l for the headwater (agricultural), suburban (mixed land-use), and urban sub...
