An anaerobic microcosm study of TCE transformation by microbes stimulated from the Gilbert-Mosley site, Wichita, Kansas

Creator:: Pon, George
Abstract:: A mix-culture of methanogenic and sulfate-reducing bacteria was capable of degrading trichloroethylene (TCE) to dichloroethylene (DCE). The culture was incubated under anaerobic conditions within a soil sample taken from Gilbert-Mosley site, Wichita, Kansas. To stimulate the growth of indigenous bacteria, a carbon and energy source was added in this microcosm...

Evaluation of precipitation data applied to hydrological simulation using MMS-PRMS for the Whitewater River Basin in Kansas

Creator:: Lin, Wei
Abstract:: Precipitation is one of the most important components contributing to hydrological dynamics. Spatially distributed precipitation data can be obtained by satellite, radar, rain gages, etc, to serve various purposes. Currently, the most commonly used precipitation data still rely on gage-based measurement techniques that provide timely precipitation information with high quality...

Spatial relationships between aquifer depletion and irrigated cropland in Southeast Ford County, Kansas

Creator:: McCarty, Kevin
Abstract:: Irrigated crop production is a stabilizing element in the agricultural economy of Southeast Ford County, Kansas. The important role irrigation plays in the local economy creates a need to carefully consider the potential impact of aquifer depletion. An examination of the spatial and temporal characteristics of aquifer depletion in relation...

Prevalence and distribution of calicivirus neutralizing antibody in selected U.S. cattle

Creator:: Boyt, Peter M.
Abstract:: Serum samples from 1,046 Kansas cattle were examined for the presence of neutralizing antibody to caliciviruses known to be circulating in the marine environment. All sera were from farm-origin cattle, with the number tested being proportionate to the total number of cattle in each county. These sera were selected in...

Niche partitioning by lesser prairie-chickens Tympanuchus pallidicinctus and ring-necked pheasants Phasianus colchicus in southwestern Kansas.

Creator:: Hagen, Chrisitan A., Pitman, James C., Robel, Robert J., Loughin, Thomas M., and Applegate, Roger D.
Abstract:: We conducted this 2-year study to determine if lesser prairie-chickens Tympanuchus pallidicinctus and ring-necked pheasants Phasianus colchicus used the same habitats where their ranges overlapped in southwestern Kansas. Telemetry locations of 50 transmitter-equipped lesser prairie-chickens and 28 pheasants were used to monitor habitat use by the two species. Additionally, vegetation...

Internal helminth parasites of the lesser prairie-chicken Tympanuchus pallidicinctus in southwestern Kansas: incidence, burden, and effects

Creator:: Robel, Robert J., Walker, Thomas L. Jr, Hagen, Christian A., Ridley, Robert K., Kemp, Kenneth E., and Applegate, Roger D.
Abstract:: We conducted a 3-year study of helminth parasites to assess their effect on the lesser prairie-chicken Tympanuchus pallidicinctus. Helminth parasites were found in most of the examined wild prairie chicken carcasses: 95% had eye worm Oxyspirura petrowi, 92% had stomach worm Tetrameres sp., and 59% had caecal worm Subulura sp....

Natural resource characteristics as related to the pattern of agricultural income in certain specified areas of the United States

Creator:: Norman, D. W. (David W.)
Abstract:: The main objective of the study was an attempt to obtain a general explanation for the geographical pattern of agricultural income. This was undertaken in the belief that certain possible determinants of agricultural income, specifically those related to natural resource characteristics, have not been satisfactorily considered in investigations up to...

Lesser prairie-chicken fence collision risk across its northern distribution

Creator:: Robinson, Samantha G., Haukos, David A., Plumb, Reid T., Hagen, Christian A., Pitman, James C., Lautenbach, Joseph M., Sullins, Daniel S., Kraft, John D., and Lautenbach, Jonathan D.
Abstract:: Livestock fences have been hypothesized to significantly contribute to mortality of lesser prairie-chickens (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus); however, quantification of mortality due to fence collisions is lacking across their current distribution. Variation in fence density, landscape composition and configuration, and land use could influence collision risk of lesser prairie-chickens. We monitored fences...
