The minimum protein requirement for growing dairy heifers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1918)
with such large farm animals as dairy heifers. Consequently the results cannot be entirely satisfactory from a scientific standpoint. Yet if such experiments are properly controlled they should give results of value both scientifically and practically."...
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...
Effects of supplemental amino acid and grain processing on nutrient disappearance and nitrogen and energy balance in cattle
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
each segment of the alimentary tract. A series of experiments were conducted to evaluate changes in efficiency of nutrient use between different substrates. Experiment 1 used bottle-fed Holstein calves across two experiments to evaluate...
Education For All: A Descriptive Case Study of the Educational Experiences of First-Generation College Graduates
(2015-06-19)
at American colleges and universities; for this particular research, first-generation college graduates are those whose parents and grandparents did not graduate from an institution of higher learning. The purpose of this descriptive case study was to describe...
Extraction, optimization, and characterization of chia seed mucilage as an emerging biopolymer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
), achieving a higher amount of yield with less extraction time compared to other similar studies, which were validated experimentally. As the CSM naturally has a very low density, novel approaches were used to incorporate it in experiments, such as FTIR...
Multi-scale analysis of urban wetland changes using satellite remote sensing techniques
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-01-10)
This study investigates urban wetland-cover changes in the Kansas City metropolitan area with analyses at various spatial and temporal scales. Not many studies fully addressed multi-scale urban wetland-cover dynamics in ...

Reciprocal exchange: understanding the community partner perspective in higher education service-learning
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-08-27)
This study investigates service-learning from the community partners' perspective,
especially in terms of reciprocity. As a central construct in the theory of service-learning,
reciprocity for community partners is ...

by the Department of Regional and Community Affairs of the University of Missouri-Columbia and are documented by sources and dates. There are 20 regional planning districts in the State of Missouri. The Missouri Department of Community Affairs, Jefferson City, acts...
Characterization of soybean rooting depth in response to different environmental conditions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Soybean (Glycine max (L.) is currently grown throughout the world because it has been adapted to many environments and because of the high protein and oil content...
The ethology of the Arizona Chuckwalla (Sauromalus obesus tumidus)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1971)
knowledge of these animals and their behavior. With the development of agriculture man's dependence on wild animals decreased . A secondary interest in the behavior of animals developed much later and may be related to man's basic curiosity. Today, animal...
Effects of riparian buffer width on stream salamander populations in the southern Appalachian Mountains
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Salamanders in the Appalachian region have been extensively studied, but the majority of research assessing the impacts of logging has focused on terrestrial species that are not dependent on stream habitats for egg ...
Bayesian spatial data analysis with application to the Missouri Ozark forest ecosystem project
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
posterior distribution. We then present a Bayesian spatial methodology for analyzing the site index data from the Missouri Ozark Forest Ecosystem Project (MOFEP). Our results show that aspect class and soil depth are both significant while land type...
Atrazine transport through a glacial till aquifer in north-central Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Although the claypan of North Central Missouri is traditionally believed to protect the groundwater from contamination, low concentrations of the herbicide atrazine have been detected in a shallow glacial till aquifer. The fate of the atrazine...
Volatile and sensory analysis of raw soy slurries and aged-bean soymilk produced from novel soybean cultivars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 12/1/2024] The introduction of soy-based products to the United States has contributed millions to the economy. The cow milk alternative, soymilk, has been an important product in the continued growth of ...

Making the Frontier’s Anatomical Engineers: Osteopathy, A. T. Still (1828–1917), his Acolytes and Patients
(2020)
in Kirksville, Missouri, the school saw massive growth during the period from 1892 to 1898. Using student ledger books, I analyze the first students to determine who became osteopaths. Many of these students came to osteopathy as a second career, after having...
Drainage water management practices affect water quality, soil properties, and crop production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
Several agricultural management practices such as terrace construction, cover crops (CC), drainage water recycling (DWR), free drainage (FD), and 4R nitrogen (N) management can influence water quality, soil properties, and crop production...
Place names in the southwest counties of Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1930)
Counties: Barton, Cedar, Dade, Greene, Jasper, Lawrence, Newton, and Polk...
"This thesis is a record of a careful research into the origin of the place-names in eight of the counties in the southwest part of Missouri. These counties are Barton, Cedar, Dade, Greene, Jasper, Lawrence, Newton, and Polk. These counties lie...
