GIS-based analysis of environmental justice and compound natural hazards in the built and natural environment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 8/1/2024] Infrastructure design connects people and the built environment with the natural world; thus, accessible, equitable, and sustainable infrastructure is critical for community resilience. As changing climate patterns present...
Changing landscapes : environmental quality through research, extension and teaching at the University of Missouri--Columbia (2001)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2001)
Like so many in science today, MU research and outreach personnel are involved in the study of, and education about, the environment at many scales -- from the molecular to the vastness of the atmosphere and beyond. This publication is but the first...
A GIS protocol for enhancing the selection of agricultural runoff sampling locations and predicting the locations of potential pollutant transport in the upland environment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
This study presents an ArcGIS geoprocessing protocol for quickly processing large amounts of data from publicly available government sources to consider both water quality standards (WQS) and nonpoint pollution source (NPS) control, on a watershed-by-watershed...
A multi-configuration evaluation of the soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) in a mixed land use watershed in the central U.S.A.
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Distributed watershed hydrologic/water quality (H/WQ) models are ubiquitous tools for watershed management. Despite advancements, there remain impediments for end-users. This study presents a practical framework for use of the soil and water...
Cross-walks, fire geography, and GIS at Mesa Verde National Park : a watershed approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
hectares (or approximately 30 acres) have previously occurred. This information is valuable to decision-makers regarding the fire geography of Mesa Verde National Park and their GIS knowledge of LULC data such as NLCD and LANDFIRE....
Climate change impacts on hydrologic components and occurrence of drought in an agricultural watershed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
of Goodwater Creek Experimental Watershed (GCEW) and experimental field (Field1) were assessed using climate datasets from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) and Agricultural Policy Environmental...
Water source development for forage irrigation systems (2013)
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2013)
This guide is designed to help forage producers determine the feasibility of developing an irrigation system by evaluating water sources and exploring their capital costs.
Development and application of vegetative buffer width modeling using geographic information systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
of performance could potentially require wider or narrower buffer widths in order to meet certain stormwater management criteria. This method was successfully demonstrated within the LaBarque Creek watershed located southwest of St. Louis, Missouri for three...
An assessment of the light and nutrient regimes constraining phytoplankton dynamics in Missouri reservoirs
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
support for additional consideration of light and N. Having critical implications for watershed management throughout the region, these results are particularly useful within watersheds experiencing high agricultural nutrient loading. Results inform...
Agroforestry buffer, biomass crop, and grain crop effects on soil quality and soil water use
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Soil degradation, impaired water quality, and reduced soil organic carbon have become major concerns in the management of degraded claypan soils with their associated ecological...
MSDIS
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation provides an introduction to the Missouri Spatial Data Information Service. It is a spatial and tabular data retrieval and archival system. MSDIS is responsible for data storage and access, standardization of both digital...
MSDIS (No Graphics)
(Missouri Spatial Data Information Service, 1999)
This presentation provides (with fewer graphics than the similarly-named file) an introduction to the Missouri Spatial Data Information Service. It is a spatial and tabular data retrieval and archival system. MSDIS is responsible for data storage...
Prehispanic agriculture and climate on the Pacific slope of Guatemala
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
The relationship between agriculture and social complexity is a complicated one through both time and space; this is no less true in prehispanic Mesoamerica. Human occupation of the Pacific Coast of Gualtemala prior to ...
Development and evaluation of a technique for evaluating riparian vegetation change in the tallgrass prairie
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2004)
occurred before the onset of modern ecological inventories. As a result, managers, planners, and policy makers often make decisions that impact riparian vegetation without sufficient information regarding presettlement vegetation. To provide data that can...
Simulation and optimization of low impact development for mitigating combined sewer overflows associated with climate change
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Modeling rainfall runoff can help to understand what is happening throughout the system, how can control of water to prevent flood, and how much the quality of runoff can change...
Characterization of disinfection by-product precursors from Missouri streams
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
spectroscopy were used to characterize NOM from thirty eight Missouri state streams, and the relationship with the THM and HAA formation potentials was investigated. The samples that were collected during the months of March, June and Sept-October of 2006 were...
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...
