A Semiotic Approach to Russian Military Map Symbology and Terms
(2021)Modern Russian military maps may comprise any combination of over 1,000 map symbols and 3,000 Russian terms. These symbols and terms identify tangible aspects such as locations, unit/equipment type, numbers, etc., but ... -
Biomass Burning and Its Relationship with Water Cycle Dynamics of the Chari-Logone Catchment of Lake Chad Basin
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2018)The present study investigates the effect of biomass burning on the water cycle dynamics of the Chari-Logone catchment, which is the primary water source of Lake Chad, in central sub-Saharn Africa, providing approximately ... -
Data-Driven Modeling of the Lake Chad Basin Hydrologic Systems
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2019)The drying of the Lake, located in Central Africa, is one example of a water crisis, which requires more research and studies. The lake has been progressively shrinking since the 1960s due to climate change and anthropogenic ... -
Detection of diesel leakage from underground storage tank using time domain reflectometry
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-22)The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established regulations concerning the construction and maintenance of an underground storage tank (UST) system. These regulations also define the means and methods required ... -
Effect of Earthquake and Human Migration on Land Cover and Mass Wasting from The 2010 Haiti Earthquake
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2016)The 2010 earthquake in Haiti displaced millions of people and drastically induced mass wasting. The purpose of this study is to explore comprehensive relationships between population displacement and landslide frequency ... -
First Principles Method for Complex Cement Structure and High Entropy Alloys
(2021)The ultimate objective of this dissertation contains two different areas of materials – secondary of Portland cement structure and high entropy alloys (HEAs). Similar concept of the computational method was applied to ... -
Geostatistical analysis of land use/land cover changes and population growth trends in the Komadugu-Yobe River Basin in Nigeria
(University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012-06-14)The Komadugu-Yobe River located in northeastern Nigeria is an important tributary of Lake Chad. Since the 1970s, the Komadugu-Yobe basin has experienced significant changes in population density and land use/land cover. ... -
Geostatistical integration of core and well log data for high-resolution reservoir modeling
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-01)Analyzing data derived from well logging and core plugs to understand the heterogeneity of porosity in geologic formations is paramount in petrological studies. The well-log data and core-plug data are integrated in order ... -
Hydrologic Response to Prescribed Burning in the Flint Hills, Kansas
(2023)This research paper presents a pioneering pilot study aimed at investigating the impacts of prescribed burning on crucial parameters of the hydrologic cycle in the Flint Hills region of Kansas. The study introduces the ... -
Impacts of Precipitation, Land use Land cover and Soil type on the Water Balance of Lake Chad Basin
(2013)Lake Chad Basin (LCB) has experienced drastic changes in land cover and poor water management practices during the last 50 years. The successive droughts in the 1970s and 1980s resulted in a decrease in surface water and ... -
Increasing Equitable Food Access Within Food Deserts in Urban Areas: A Case Study of the Kansas City Metropolitan Area
(2022)There has been growing interest in the factors that contribute to poor health outcomes, particularly in areas where health disparities are pronounced. The locations of food deserts, or unhealthy food environments, correspond ... -
Seismic characteristics and strain of coal during the sorption of CO2 and CH4
(2013)Coal has been studied for its extensive capability of adsorbing CO2 in exchange for coalbed CH4. Various sorption models have been developed and enhanced in order to precisely understand the implications of carbon ... -
The Impact of Climate Variability and Land Cover Change on Groundwater Resources in The Niger River Basin
(2021)The Niger River Basin (NRB) has experienced severe droughts and floods under a significant change of the land use and land cover (LULC) with increasing population over the years. The present study is to understand the ... -
VELAS: a fully-distributed daily hydrologic feedback model with emphasis on vegetation, land cover, and soil water dynamics
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012-06-15)We present a daily hydrologic feedback model, VELAS (the VEgetation- LAnd cover-Soil water dynamics), to simulate daily responses of hydrologic processes including interception, runoff, evapotranspiration, infiltration, ...
