Entrainment and transport of coarse stream bed material in a fluviokarst watershed, south-central Missouri : a tracer particle study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
percentage of material (0-59.1%) during similar flows (2-29% of bankfull) and frequencies (less than 3.59 years). The use of the Shields (1936) criteria tends to over predict the critical shear stress required for entrainment of the largest mobilized grain...
Estimation of demand parameters : an empirical analysis of consumer behavior in the United States
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
is insufficient for the estimation of a large number of the required parameters. Recent studies of the theory of consumer behavior have provided a number of empirically useful hypotheses concerning the separability of the consumer’s utility functions...

This thesis describes the methods and results of an experiment carried out by the author to discover what affect diet has on the composition of beef cattle.
Nutrients, chlorophyll and bacterial fecal indicators in coves and open water areas of Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Urban development and use of septic tanks in porous soils of Lake of the Ozarks poses a threat to public health via leaching into drinking wells and coves used for swimming. During 2 summers, phosphorus (TP), nitrogen (TN), chlorophyll (Chl), fecal...
