Nitrogen and Spacing Requirments for Advanced Chipping Selections ND7799C-1 and ND7519-1
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
To understand the best agronomic practices, including nitrogen fertilization rate and within-row spacing for two potential cultivar releases of NDSU, a study was carried out in 2018 and 2019 for the advanced chipping ...
Synthesis of Small Silicon Carbide Nanocrystals in Low Pressure Nonthermal Plasma
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Nanoparticles have attracted much attention because of their unusual physical properties. This work represents original, incipient research into small crystalline silicon carbide nanoparticles synthesized in a low-pressure ...
Lead Halide Perovskite Nanocrystals: Photophysical and Photochemical Dynamics
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Lead halide perovskites nanocrystals (LHP NCs) are a recent novel material of ‘high-defect tolerance’ that has been synthesized which have provided a new platform for opto-electronic devices, such as photovoltaics and ...
Conceptual Cost Estimation Models for Bridge Projects
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Conceptual cost estimating is typically completed early in the project lifecycle when little design work has been completed. Because little information is known at this early stage, the estimate usually deviates substantially ...
Characterization of Mechanical Adhesion Failure in Epoxy Nanocomposites by Acoustic Emission Method
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Polymeric nanocomposite coatings are used to protect metallic components in a variety of civil structures from corrosive agents. The adhesion between a coating and its substrate is not yet fully understood. In this study, ...
Pollinator Response to Annual Forb Plantings and Self-Pollinating Dry Bean Crops in Agroecosystems
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Intensive agricultural systems have had several ecological effects on the surrounding ecosystem, including contributing to widespread pollinator declines. In order to help supplement bee communities and potentially improve ...
Invasions in the Prairie Pothole Region: Addressing the Effects of Exotic Plants on Wetland and Grassland Ecosystems and Restoration Efforts
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Three wetland restoration methods: seeding, seeding + hay mulch, and seeding + hay mulch + vegetation plugs were compared via the plant community within a formerly cropped wetland in southeastern North Dakota. Arrangement ...
Application of Biochar for Carbon Sequestration Mitigating Impacts of Climate Change: An Analysis of Detention Basins in Fargo, North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Biochar can be used for many purposes beyond its use for carbon sequestration and is a multifunctional substance. Detention basins are primarily a one-use area utilizing large spaces to hold stormwater, allowing the ...
The Effect of Climate Change on the Predatory Success of Sharks
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
This literature overview focuses on how shark species, are faring with the anthropogenically induced climatic changes. The ocean is drastically affected by this, which has major implications on the aquatic life. Some effects ...
Scenario Development for Niger Environment Based on Risk and Effect Analysis With Drought, Drought Response, and Population Growth as Drivers
(North Dakota State University, 2021)
Niger is a landlock country located within the Sahara Desert and Sahel region. The region is subject to extreme climate conditions including heat waves, droughts and floods. Rapid population growth together with institutional ...
