Total hydrocarbon emissions from lumber dry kilns

Creator:: Lavery, Mark Robert
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Nitrate and pesticide transport under pear production in clay and sandy soil

Creator:: Cao, Weidong
Abstract:: Groundwater contamination on irrigated land is of concern in this nation and around the world. In order to reduce the potential of groundwater contamination by agricultural practices such as irrigation, fertilizer and pesticide application, vadose-zone monitoring and sampling are needed. The main objective of this study was to evaluate impacts...

Nitrate leaching and model evaluation under winter cover crops

Creator:: Minshew, Hudson F.
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Agricultural production can have significant impacts on environmental quality. Understanding the underlying

Harvestable moss : communities, hosts, and accumulation

Creator:: Peck, JeriLynn E.
Abstract:: With the increased recognition of moss as a secondary forest product has come an increased concern for the ecological ramifications of moss harvest. Three issues of primary concern are (1) characterizing the epiphyte communities impacted by harvest, (2) assessing the host preferences of these epiphytes, and (3) describing the availability...

Organic pesticide modification of the species interactions in an annual plant community

Creator:: Pfleeger, Thomas G.
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: under current federal regulations, but reduces the environmental heterogeneity common in most field

Metal and organic emissions from RDF and large volume contributor combustion

Creator:: Lee, Taejin, 1961-
Abstract:: The use of municipal refuse (RDF) as fuels has received widespread attention for reason of its energy equivalence and the increasing lack of available landfill sites. The principal obstacle to the construction of combustion facilities is that RDF produces toxic compounds, including heavy metals and such organic compounds as PCDD...

Biomass and nutrient dynamics associated with deforestation, biomass burning and conversion to pasture in a tropical dry forest in Mexico

Creator:: Steele, Michael D.
Abstract:: The effects of deforestation and biomass burning in tropical dry forests (TDF) remain a little studied phenomenon. We quantified total aboveground biomass (TAGB), carbon and nutrient (N,S,Ca,P,K) loss under two separate fire severity scenarios; one early when the fuels were higher in moisture content, one later when the slash fuels...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Dynamic pollution regulation with endogenous technological change

Creator:: Jaspin, Michael D
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the dynamic efficiency of emission standards and Pigouvian taxes in the regulation of pollution where research and development (R&D) and the technology level are endogenous. A key element of the analysis is a comparison of the efficiency between instances in which the regulator can and cannot commnit...

Peppermint irrigation and nitrogen management for the reduction of nitrate loading to groundwater

Creator:: Smesrud, Jason K.
Abstract:: The agricultural production of peppermint has been shown to contribute significant quantities of nitrate-nitrogen to groundwater recharge. In an effort to provide new tools for increasing nitrogen efficiency within peppermint production, three research questions were proposed: i) How should plant tissue samples be collected to achieve the greatest precision when...
