Habitat Use Of Urban Bats In Springfield, Missouri, Sarah Jane Robertson Jan 2002

Habitat Use Of Urban Bats In Springfield, Missouri, Sarah Jane Robertson

Graduate Theses/Dissertations

During the summers of 1998-2000, the Anabat II bat detector system was placed in a mosaic of habitats within Springfield, Missouri and surrounding rural areas in southern Missouri to compare the activity indices of nine bat species between urban and rural environments. A total of 1,876 echolocation call sequences was recorded, identified to species and analyzed; 1,066 were from 42 Springfield sites, and 810 were from 22 rural locations. For all species combined, urban bat activity tended to be higher than rural activity, but those differences were only significant at the reading taken 3 hours after sunset. Eptesicus fuscus activity …

Effet De L'Endommagement Sur La Stabilité Des Excavations Souterraines En Roche Dure, Michel Aubertin, Li Li, Richard Simon Jan 2002

Effet De L'Endommagement Sur La Stabilité Des Excavations Souterraines En Roche Dure, Michel Aubertin, Li Li, Richard Simon

Rapports de recherche scientifique

Le comportement de la roche et du massif rocheux autour des ouvertures souterraines dépend de nombreux facteurs. Pour les roches dures, l'amorce de la propagation des fissures, qui peut éventuellement conduire à une rupture par excès de contrainte, représente une propriété fondamentale - appelée ici seuil d'endommagement. Ce seuil, comme la résistance à court terme de la roche, est représenté à partir d'un nouveau critère multiaxial dans l'espace des contraintes. Dans une forme extensionnée aux massifs rocheux, le critère proposé, appelé MSDPu, permet de tenir compte des principaux facteurs qui influencent la stabilité des excavations, soient: la résistance …

Bradyrhizobium Japonicum And Soybean Symbiotic Response To Glyphosate In Glyphosate-Tolerant Soybeans, Jodie M. Scheele, C. Andy King, Marilynn K. Davies, Larry C. Purcell Jan 2002

Bradyrhizobium Japonicum And Soybean Symbiotic Response To Glyphosate In Glyphosate-Tolerant Soybeans, Jodie M. Scheele, C. Andy King, Marilynn K. Davies, Larry C. Purcell

Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences

Soybean (Glycine max) grain contains approximately 40% protein and 6.5% nitrogen (N) on an elemental basis. Therefore, the plant requires an abundant N supply throughout its life cycle, and symbiotic N fixation of soybean with Bradyrhizobium japonicum provides 40 to 85% of the soybean N. Although soybean cultivars have been genetically engineered to withstand the herbicide glyphosate, B. japonicum grown in culture is sensitive to glyphosate. We hypothesized that glyphosate applied to glyphosate-tolerant soybean would inhibit nodulation by B. japonicum unless B. japonicum could also be selected for glyphosate tolerance. Cultures of B. japonicum were challenged with sublethal doses of …

Education Faculty Publications and Presentations

This study is part of the on-going program evaluation of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Model Schools Initiative and Model Districts Initiative in the state of Washington. In developing the Teaching Attributes Observation Protocol (TAOP) a conceptual framework was identified based on extensive literature on constructivist teaching. From this framework and the foundation’s written materials we identified important components and indicators of constructivist teaching and implications for the classroom. We then produced an observation protocol with 7 lesson components and a number of indicators under each component. The content validity of the instrument was then checked against the literature …

Performing Multiple Identities: Guillermo Gómez-Peña And His Dangerous Border Crossings, Juan Velasco Jan 2002

Performing Multiple Identities: Guillermo Gómez-Peña And His Dangerous Border Crossings, Juan Velasco

English

Guillermo Gómez-Peña is one of the few Mexican performance artists who, since he came to the United States in 1978, has been able to create and explore the merging of visual language and text in the complexities of cross-cultural identities through controversial issues. Labeled by some as one of the most significant performance artists of the late twentieth century, he uses multiple media: video, performance, installation art, and bilingual poetry. In his "Performance Diaries" he explains the process of performance in his work as "a vast conceptual territory where my eclectic and ever-changing ideas and the ideas of my collaborators …
