Overstory density and its effect on oak regeneration abundance and oak understory height growth in the Missouri Ozark Highlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
This study examined how overstory density affects regeneration abundance and understory height growth in the Missouri Ozark Highlands. Data were collected on three different treatment types, no harvest management, uneven-aged management, and even...
The effect of age and condition on the mineral composition of the ash of the bovine
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1916)
and in most cases incomplete. Furthermore, a great deal of the data as presented by various investigators cannot be compared because of lack of uniformity in reporting results as well as in the selection of samples for analysis. Forbes in his bulletin on "The...

Three essays on phosphorus runoff and water quality
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Water pollution caused by nutrients, and the resulting eutrophication, have increased over time. This water pollution is increasingly caused by non-point source pollution, both...
A multi-scale investigation of ecologically relevant effects of agricultural runoff on amphibians
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Modification of landscapes for agricultural production can introduce agrochemicals into surface waters and degrade aquatic habitats used by many amphibians for breeding and larval development. Although many ecotoxicological studies have shown...
Simulating the effects of riparian zone delineation and management practices on landscape pattern and timber production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2004)
Best management practices (BMPs) are essential to giving the forest manager guidelines to follow that result in the least amount of negative impact on the forest landscape and corresponding riparian areas. The purpose of this research project...
Plant community response during establishment of woodland silvopasture in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Disturbance-mediated oak (Quercus spp.) woodlands were formerly a prevalent community type in Missouri, and their restoration is a key objective of land management agencies and conservation organizations. Over one-third of wooded land in Missouri (2...
Three essays on biofuel policies and aggregate supply curve
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
The first essay investigates the impacts of Brazil's new biofuel policy, namely RenovaBio. RenovaBio aims to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the transportation sector through expansion of biofuels by requiring ...
Impacts of municipal wastewater effluent on seed banks, chemistry, and microorganisms of soils excavated from wetland impoundments designated for wildlife
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
To evaluate the effects of municipal wastewater effluent (WWE) and Missouri River water (MOR) as irrigation sources on soil chemistry, seed banks, and microorganisms, a field study was conducted in conjunction with a set of greenhouse studies...
Delineation of critical management areas at plot, field, and watershed scales for claypan soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
and water quality and given rise to non-point source pollutants. The claypan soil region of Missouri has a high runoff potential that increases the possibility of transport of non-point source pollutants to downstream sites. The Agricultural Policy...
Adoption of Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin and Farm Profitability : Does Farm Size Matter?
(AgBioForum, 2010)
This article analyzes the adoption and profitability of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rBST) in the United States. Probit model results show that location of the farm, farm size, operator age and education, and other ...
Integrating cover crops into crop rotations in upstate Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
"There is an increasing emphasis on management strategies such as reduced tillage, use of cover crops, and implementation of conservation practices (i.e. terraces, no-till, and cropping systems) in Missouri cropping systems. By combining best...
Effects of forest fragmentation on reproductive effort and productivity of Indigo buntings (Passerina cyanea)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
and offspring quality, I measured maternal condition and reproductive output of Indigo Buntings breeding in a fragmented and a contiguously forested landscape in Missouri. Renesting females had lower body condition than those that nested once successfully...
Wildlife response to spatial and temporal changes in forest habitat
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
A common goal in land-management planning is to describe the relationship between management actions, vegetation and wildlife habitat conditions for large landscapes. Achieving this goal can be challenging because ecological ...
The effects of overstory retention on species composition and height growth following clearcut and group selection regeneration harvests in the Missouri Ozark Highlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
The objectives of this study focus on whether treatment and aspect significantly influence tree regeneration. This study utilizes data from 16-year-old clearcuts and group openings within the Missouri Ozarks to assess the height and quantity...
