North Dakota Wetlands: Changes over Five Years in Prairie Pothole Wetlands and a Description of Vegetative and Soil Properties in a North Dakota Fen
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Wetlands provide ecosystem services such as water quality, flood attenuation, primary productivity, biodiversity, and provide habitats for wildlife. Land use conversions from natural to agricultural and urban landscapes ...
Performance of a Retrofit Detention Basin in Fargo, ND
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
“The Fargo Project” located in Fargo, North Dakota, is an 18-acre stormwater detention basin that was retrofitted in 2015 to include an earthen-channel, sediment forebay, and various native vegetation within the floodplain ...
Plant Community Composition of Douglas Creek Training Area, North Dakota Army National Guard: 1999-2015
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
A vegetation monitoring study was conducted from 1999 to 2015 at Douglas Creek Military Reservation (DCMR), Garrison in McLean County, North Dakota to assess how climatic and military training disturbance affects plant ...
Non-Thermal Plasma Synthesis of Luminescent Silicon Nanocrystals from Cylclohexasilane
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
In this report we establish cyclohexasilane (CHS) as a reliable precursor for non-thermal plasma synthesis of high quality photoluminescent silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs). We demonstrate that this synthesis approach can ...

About 75% of human food in the 21st century consists of just 12 crops, though specific crops vary among nations. Modern technology has allowed development of innovative food and non-food uses for these commodities. For ...
The Effects of Doping on the Lithium Ionic Conductivity of LLZO Solid-State Electrolyte
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) employing solid-state electrolytes are considerably safer and might potentially generate a higher energy density compared. The goal of this thesis is to investigate the synthesis and stability ...
Prairie Response to Canada Thistle Infestation, and Native Forb Response to Aminocyclopyrachlor
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Prairie response to Canada thistle invasion was evaluated by comparison of forage yield between aminopyralid treated and non-treated infestations in North Dakota. In general, forage production was unaffected by Canada ...
