Interaction of metsulfuron and nitrogen fertilizer in Tall Fescue forage systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Tall Fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus) is an introduced cool-season bunch grass that is a vital component of forage systems that support beef cattle production in Missouri and much of the eastern United States. This cool-season grass is known...
Morphological and biomechanical predictions of cranial kinesis in reptile evolution
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Feeding is a complex behavior that all tetrapods engage in on a regular basis to procure energy and survive. The reptilian feeding apparatus includes many types of feeding behaviors including multiple methods of engaging ...
Deep learning bandgaps of topologically doped graphene
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Manipulation of physical and chemical properties of materials via precise doping affords an extensive range of tunable phenomena to explore. Recent advance shows that in the atomic and nano scales topological states of ...
Spacetime measurements in Kaluza-Klein gravity
(arXiv, 2000)
We extend the classical general relativistic theory of measurement to include the possibility of existence of higher dimensions. The intrusion of these dimensions in the spacetime interval implies that the inertial mass ...
Text selection and students' motivation to read
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
This study explores the relationship between features of the books students selectfor independent reading and their motivation to read. After spending 15 to 20 minutes reading self-selected texts, participants (n = 340) ...
Socialization activities and professional competencies within a graduate social work program
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
This quantitative research project was premised on two emerging trends in graduate social work education: competency-based assessments and students developing a professional social work identity. Competency-based assessments ...
Correlates of pet-keeping in residence halls on college student adjustment at a small, private, midwestern college
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
A limited number of colleges and universities permit pets other than small aquariums in residence halls. No studies have been published documenting the effect of pets in residence halls. A matched two-group comparison of college students (N = 50...

Through the looking-glass: how scientists view journalists and science news
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
This research aims to better understand the relationship between scientists and journalists from a scientist's point of view, how scientists view science news, and how this view has changed or stayed the same over twenty ...

Interpreters of Chicago : a study in American regionalism
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1932)
The second discovery of America came when the writers discovered the interesting elements in the varied communities which made each of them unique. A like discovery had been made in England years before by George Eliot, ...
The development and implementation of a heuristic for teaching reflective scientific skepticism within a socio-scientific issue instructional framework
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Science ideas are frequently miscommunicated or distorted. In our digital age, a social media post may provoke an emotional response triggering a cascade of replies that spread...
Temporal trends in the Holocene: exploring implications for conservation paleobiology through quantitative assessment of marine mollusks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Conservation paleobiology is a relatively new field which applies the theories and analytical tools of paleontology to problems concerning the conservation of biodiversity. The use of data from stratigraphy, sediment or ...
Fault evolution and earthquakes : a finite element study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ) in central United States is a good example of intraplate seismicity, which cannot be readily explained by the plate tectonics theory and remains poorly understood. I have developed a 3D ...
Achieving a coherent curriculum in second grade : science as the organizer
