Predicting Soil Health and Function of the Barnes Catena Using Evapotranspiration, Vegetative, Geologic, and Terrain Attributes in the Eastern Glaciated Plains of North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
The benchmark Barnes soil series is an extensive northern Great Plains upland Hapludoll that is vital to the region. Accelerated erosion has degraded Barnes agricultural soil quality, but with unknown extent or severity. ...
Assessment of Watershed Health on Intermittent Watersheds in Southwestern North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Watersheds are complex systems that are influenced by many factors including geomorphology, climate, soil, vegetation, and land management. Due to this complexity, a watershed assessment that evaluates both the riparian ...
Screening Hard Red Spring Wheat Cultivars for Reduced Phosphorus Fertilizer Requirement
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Phosphorus (P) is a common macronutrient required for hard red spring (HRS) wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growth and yield expression, and is a significant expense for farmers. The objective of this study was to screen 89 ...
Sugarbeet Yield and Quality Response to Nitrogen Fertilizer Rate and In-Season Prediction of Yield and Quality Using Active-Optical Sensor
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Nitrogen (N) management is one of the important factors in sugarbeet production. Under-application of N-fertilizer results in lower root yield while over-application of N-fertilizer can result in decreased sugar concentration ...
Fundamental Studies of Interfacial Forces Acting on Thin Films
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
A thin film is a material that is many orders of magnitude thinner than it is long or wide. They are commonly found in many forms and have been adapted to a wide variety of uses. The art of origami uses thin films(sheets ...
Utilization of Interdigitated Microelectrodes and Dielectrophoresis for Biosensing, Bio Molecule Manipulation and Biomanufacturing Therapeutic Cells
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Microelectrode arrays (MEA) and microfluidic systems are two of the most used technologies in Lab-on-a-chip (LOC) applications. These integrated and miniaturized systems are said to offer significant advantages in medical ...
The Battleground for the American Past: The Influence of the Vietnam War in Contemporary Memory
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Commemorative programming for historic anniversaries reveals an interpretive and narrative evolution between public memory and history. The divisiveness of the war and the public’s ambivalence about its meaning allowed for ...
Patch-Burn Grazing in Southwestern North Dakota: Assessing Above- and Belowground Rangeland Ecosystem Responses
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Rangelands are heterogeneous working landscapes capable of supporting livestock production and biodiversity conservation, and heterogeneity-based rangeland management balances the potentially opposing production and ...
The Effects of Agricultural Factors on Foodborne Bacterial Pathogen Isolation, Attachment, and Survival
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
The pathogens enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), Salmonella enterica, and Listeria monocytogenes are prominent causes of foodborne illness. If they reach the pre- or post-harvest environment of produce, they can ...
The Effect of Fatty Acid Unsaturation on Properties and Performance of Monomers and Latex Polymers from Plant Oils
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
The interest in renewable natural resources, including plant oils, has become increasingly appealing due to the oil abundance, availability, and wide range of applications for polymers and polymeric materials thereof.
