Tensile strength, shear strength, and effective stress for unsaturated sand
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
It is generally accepted in geotechnical engineering that non-cohesive materials such as sands exhibit no or negligible tensile strength. However, there is significant evidence that interparticle forces arising from capillary ...

Queering CoMo : an exploratory case study of queer geographies in Columbia, Missouri between 1991-2021
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
In an effort to continue bringing light to underrepresented queer histories and experiences, this exploratory project investigates and maps the queer geographies of Columbia, Missouri from 1991 through 2021. I argue that Columbia is an ideal site...
Spatiotemporal variation in Lake Sturgeon movement and habitat selection in Missouri river tributaries : implications for the management and recovery of populations at range margins
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
over 3.5 years and 187 age-0 juvenile Lake Sturgeon during the fall/winter of two years. Missouri River tributaries were important habitats for adult and subadult Lake Sturgeon throughout the year. Lake Sturgeon use of the Osage River was greater in all...

A methodology for evaluation of research animal diagnostic and investigative laboratories
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1974)
"The objective of this study was to design, develop, and test a method for evaluation of the effectiveness of Research Animal Diagnostic and Investigative Laboratories (RADILs). This includes identifying and measuring the ...
A transcriptomic approach to uncovering the molecular mechanisms of maize nodal root growth maintenance during drought stress in the field
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
of this work. To understand this phenomenon, we are utilizing transcriptomics to explore changes of the maize nodal root growth zone under irrigated and water-limited conditions in two inbred lines, FR697 and B73. These lines have contrasting abilities...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This phenomenological study examined lived experiences of learning communities among pre-service teachers within online undergraduate college courses from a new literacies...
Bioethicists in the news : the evolving role of bioethicists as expert sources in science and medical stories
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
and 2006. A quantitative content analysis of 456 stories, a qualitative framing analysis on a subset of that coverage, and interviews with a science or medical reporter at each newspaper provided converging lines of inquiry. This study finds that one...
Efficient closed-form estimators in multistatic target localization and motion analysis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
an object location estimator. Two measurements are sufficient in 2-D and three in 3-D to yield a solution if they are consistent. The derived minimum measurement solution is exact and reduces the computation to the roots of a quadratic equation. The solution...
Effects of continous administration of low-dose of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide in chicks and poults fed non toxic doses of aflatoxin B1 and T-2 toxin
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Six studies (three with broilers and three with turkeys) were conducted to determine if E. coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) would enhance the effects of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and the T-2 toxin (T-2) in chicks and poults fed from hatch to 21 days of age...

Elucidation of the genetic control of carbohydrate partitioning in Zea mays
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
-dominant gain-of-function mutant Carbohydrate partitioning defective1 (Cpd1) (Chapters 3 and 4). All three mutant's hyper-accumulate carbohydrates in their mature leaves due to decreased sucrose export. The cpd28 and cpd47 mutations decrease the amount...
Exploring the symbiotic relationship of plants and microbes by mass spectrometry imaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Current practices in agriculture make use of chemical inputs including nitrogen fertilizers to provide high crop yields since nitrogen is often the limiting nutrient in field soil. However, nitrogen fertilizer use has negative impacts; such as due...
Environmental drivers of Northern bobwhite fall and winter survival and resource selection in Southwest Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
, while there was a negative effect of grass on winter resource selection. Woody cover was an important component of vegetation contributing to fall and winter survival and resource selection of bobwhite in Missouri. More specifically, proximity to shrubs...
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)
employed by the protocol allow for its use in various geographic regions. The methodology has been performed on sites in Linn County and Boone County, Missouri, and produces results consistent with those expected from other widely accepted methods...
Development and evaluation of pattern recognition habitat models for the ruffed grouse, gray squirrel, and fox squirrel in Missouri
(University of Missouri -- Columbia., 1987)
Pattern recognition (PATREC) models are single-species models that use habitat characteristics to arrive at an estimation of population abundance. Currently, personnel of the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri are using this type of model as a...
