Space use and resource selection by Eastern spotted skunks in the Ouachita Mountains, Arkansas
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
of western Arkansas. During two years of field work we collected locations at 28-hour intervals for 33 eastern spotted skunks. Using kernel-based utilization distributions and the volume of intersection index analysis, we found significant seasonal...
Rivers running through : an urban environmental history of the Kansas Cities and the Missouri River
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] An environmental history of Kansas City and an urban history of the Missouri River, this dissertation shows how interconnected the city and the river were through the twentieth...
The Division of Animal Sciences : University of Missouri, 100 years
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Rheological and morphological evolution of basaltic lava flows
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
question of how pre-existing topography controls lava flow system structure in volume-limited flows (Soldati et al., accepted). I concluded that a steep slope results in a single, stable channel, whereas a gentle slope results in an unstable, braided...

Polycystic ovarian syndrome
(Family Physicians Inquiries Network, 2010)
This issue of eMedRef provides information to clinicians on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and therapeutics of polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Photoacoustic detection of circulating tumor cells
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
based on the change in refractive index was developed to detect individual melanoma cells. The sensitivity of the optical based detector was high and has the resolution to determine the presence of extremely low number of metastatic and cultured cells (2...
Assessing the Impact of Changing Climate on Agriculture in Missouri and the use of Crop Insurance as Adaptation Strategy (1980-2010)
(2015)
as an adaptation strategy by farmers in Missouri is driven primarily by the volume of crop production and not vulnerability to changing climate....
Use of main channel and shallow-water habitat by larval fishes in the lower Missouri River
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
I developed a series of research objectives organized in a spatial hierarchy to characterize larval fish nursery habitat within the lower Missouri River. Native carpsucker spp./buffalo spp. (Carpiodes spp./Ictiobus spp.) and chub spp. (Macrhybopsis...
Nectar in nicotiana : pollinator associations, sources of variation, and evolutionary consequences
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
significant heritable component was detected for nectar volume and energy, as well as corolla tube length, in an experimental population of Nicotiana alata. Although phenotypic correlations were significant for all measured traits, only two correlations had a...
Mathematical problems from cryobiology
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Cryobiology is the study of life anddeath at low temperatures and provides a fascinating setting for applied mathematics. The interdisciplinary nature of cryobiology mirrors the diversity of applications ranging from animal ...
Geostatistical integration of core and well log data for high-resolution reservoir modeling
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-01)
-plug porosity data was generated from well-log data with random number generation. The GS model requires basic histograms and variogram models for scaling the computerized tomography (CT) plug data to well log scale as well as integrating the data in a...
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...

Designing a LANDIS PRO harvest module and examining the effects of temporal resolution on simulation outcomes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
and testing of a disturbance module that simulates harvest events in the LANDIS PRO model. The design operates on quantitative attributes such as number of trees and basal area to control harvest events, giving the user the ability to parameterize harvest...
Theoretical and experimental study of an evaporative cooler embedded with parallel plates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] In the current investigation, a theoretical model predicting the temperature variation of ambient air flowing through an evaporative cooler embedded with parallel plates...
Watershed-level Analysis of Urban Raingarden Performance
(2013)
Urban flooding became to be a big issue for many cities in the world due to the urbanization. Best Management Practices (BMP) are considered to be an economically friendly solution for the urban storm water problem.
