Quasi-empirical and Spatio-Temporal Vulnerability Modeling of Environmental Risks Posed to a Watershed
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Water quality assessment is crucial in investigating impairment within agricultural watersheds. Seasonal and spatial variations on land can directly affect the adjoining riverine systems. Studies have revealed that ...
Alluvial Fans in the McMurdo Dry Valleys: A Proxy for Melting Along Terrestrial Margins of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Surface melting along Antarctic ice sheet margins is the most poorly understood input in models of future sea level rise. Alluvial fans in the McMurdo Dry Valleys originate from meltwater produced from high-elevation ...
Impact of Artificial Aeration on Nutrients in a Small Eutrophic Lake
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
The Heinrich- Martin Dam Impoundment (HMDI), located in northcentral LaMoure County, North Dakota, is an important water body for fishing, boating, and other recreational activities. To eliminate the thermal stratification ...
Population Genetics of the Western Prairie Fringed Orchid
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
The Western Prairie Fringed Orchid (WPFO) Platanthera praeclara is listed as a federally threatened species in the United States. The habitat of the WPFO is highly fragmented, causing the possibility of genetic isolation ...
Interactions between Ultraviolet Light and Soybean Aphid, Aphis Glycines Matsumura (Hemiptera: Aphididae)
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Global increases in ultraviolet (UV) radiation have led to greater interest in its current and potential effects on organisms, including insects and plants. Here we report the short-term effects of UV on soybean aphids ...
Seasonality of Some Arctic Alaskan Chironomids
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Arthropods, especially dipteran insects in the family Chironomidae (non-biting midges), are a primary prey resource for many vertebrate species on Alaska’s Arctic Coastal Plain. Midge-producing ponds on the ACP are ...
Economic Analyses of Agricultural Land-Use Change and Agro-Ecosystem Services for Waterfowl in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Understanding the relationship between crop production and wildlife habitat in North Dakota - which contains a large portion of the Prairie Pothole Region - will be essential to the continuation of both in a region facing ...
Does Relative Energy in Sport Undermine Bone Health?
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) is a term expanded from the female athlete triad the is inclusive to males and females and the negative physiological symptoms impacting athlete health and performance from low ...
Interval Training Methods to Increase Performance Markers and Load Carriage in Tactical Professionals
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Load carriage is an inherent part of the military and other tactical occupations (e.g., law enforcement, firefighters). Variation in load carriage ranges from 7-60 kg and can increase energy expenditure as well as lead to ...
The Effect of 5% Hypohydration on Muscle Cramp Threshold Frequency
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Many clinicians believe exercise associated muscle cramps (EAMC) occur because of dehydration and electrolyte losses. Experimental research supporting this theory is lacking. Mild hypohydration (3% body mass loss) does not ...
