Triallate Efficacy to Suspected Herbicide Resistant Wild Oat (Avena fatua L.) in Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Herbicide-resistant weed populations have increased because of continuous use of the same grass herbicides. Several collections of wild oat with resistance to ACCase and ALS herbicides have been documented in North Dakota, ... -
TriPeaks Montessori
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Blending architecture with landscape is not a new feature in design. For the Montessori schooling system, directly relating the natural world into the school’s methods of teaching is crucial for the development of the ... -
Trust and Anti-Autonomy Modelling of Autonomous Systems
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Human trust in autonomous vehicles is built upon their safe and secure operability in the most ethical, law abiding manner possible. Despite the technological advancements that autonomous vehicles are equipped with, their ... -
Tuolumne Meadow: Conservation of Yosemite's Meadows through Recreational and Educational Planning
(2016)Alpine meadows are delicate ecosystems that are being damaged and declining. In Yosemite only 3% of the park is considered meadow habitat. Through this thesis I am exploring the question; how can we conserve these alpine ... -
Turf Quality of Creeping Bentgrass Using Foliar Fertilization Tank-Mixed with Sprayable Organic Amendments
(North Dakota State University, 2013)The use of foliar fertilizer applications on creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) is a popular method of achieving quality turfgrass. Tank-mixing foliar products may increase turfgrass quality, reduce amount of ... -
Turfgrass Responses and Rootzone Media Characteristics as Affected by Salinity
(North Dakota State University, 2011)Utilization of salt-tolerant species or cultivars is one the most effective methods to address salinity problems in turfgrass management. The relative salt tolerance in 26 commercial creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) ... -
Turning Visual Noise Into Hardware Efficiency: Systems of Viewer and Content Aware Power-Quality Scalable Embedded Memories With ECC-Adaptation for Big Videos and Deep Learning
