Decadal mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from satellite radar altimetry and its contribution to global sea level change
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] In this research, we estimated the decadal mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet using the European Space Agency's ERS-1 and ERS-2 satellite radar altimeter data over the time...
Ligands for the sigma receptor and the mu-opioid receptor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The sigma receptor is a unique receptor family with two subtypes: sigma-1 and sigma-2. In order to conduct structure-activity relationship studies (SAR), a series of specific 1-phenylpropyl-4-benzylpiperidine and 1-phenylpropyl-4- benzylpiperazine...
An ERP investigation of cognitive control in bilinguals
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Bilingualism is known to impact both language processing and cognitive abilities. The effects on cognitive abilities have been found to be generally positive suggesting...
Adjusting organizational structure for cooperative longevity : Missouri farmers association, 1920 - 1950
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The objective of this qualitative exploratory study is to analyze the process which led Missouri Farmer Association (MFA) to dramatically change its organizational structure...
Household labor and marital quality : perceived partner responsiveness as a buffer for unfair divisions of labor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
of household labor and global marital quality. The sample consisted of married or cohabiting adults from the third wave (2012) of the National Survey of Midlife Development in the United States (MIDUS) study (N = 1923). Hierarchical regression analyses...
Quasi-metric geometry : smoothness and convergence results
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
, and smoothness of quasi-metric spaces, and the second dealing with Euclidean geometry, namely the role geometry plays in analysis, particularly in the characterization of Lipschitz domains via cones, domains of class C[superscript 1], [superscript w], where w...
The clothing and textile research base: an author cocitation study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
This is a study of the clothing and textile research base using author cocitation analysis. The study uses a custom database from a 15 year period, containing all citations in the field's leading journal: the Clothing and ...
The Division of Animal Sciences : University of Missouri, 100 years
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Part I: The synthesis of chenodeoxycholic acid derived macrocyles and cage compounds. Part II. Sonogashira coupling for the synthesis of well-defined π-conjugated arylene ethynylene oligomers as blue-light-emitting materials
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-20)
time that CO2 has been directly introduced to the steroid molecules by organic synthetic method. It also provides a potential methodology to synthesize 14C labeled bile acid derivatives to explore the transport mechanism of hASBT. Secondly, a series...

Pluton source varition over two magmatic pulses in the white-inyo range, central-eastern California : implications for paleozoic and mesozoic tectonic reconstructions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This dissertation uses compositions of plutons in the White-Inyo Range (WIR) of central-eastern California, which is an important tectonic boundary as it is the easternmost...
Numerical solutions to the Poisson equation in media surrounding multiple arbitrarily shaped bodies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The dissertation describes a general, efficient, and parallelized approach to solving the Poisson equation in the volume surrounding multiple, arbitrarily shaped bodies. Green...
Investigation of CO2 capture systems, Lewis acid-base pairs, and oscillating reactions with electronic structure theory and kinetics-based approaches
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
published in the literature. A careful read of the literature clearly showed early on that experimental and theoretical reports on F3B[arrow]PH3 are entirely inconsistent. It took years to explain what was actually measured, namely the compound F2B-PH2...
Occupancy modeling of forest carnivores in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
My research used infrared remote cameras, trackplate boxes, and scat transects to survey for carnivores at 53 sites throughout the southern forested region of Missouri. Cameras and track-plates both detected Eastern spotted skunk (Spilogale putorius...
Technetium and rhenium schiff base complexes for nuclear medicine
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
This dissertation investigates the synthesis of rhenium and technetium Schiff base complexes for potential applications in nuclear medicine. In Chapter 2, a series of mixed ligand Re(III) complexes of the form trans-[Re(PR3)2(tmf2en)]+ were prepared...
