300-million-year-old soils and their implications on predicting ancient climate conditions
(Wichita State University. Graduate School., 2005-04-22) -
A model of the effect of interspecies competition for light on dry-matter production
(CSIRO Publishing, 1983-12)A model of the effect of interspecies competition for light on the daily dry-matter production of competing species is developed. It describes the absorption of light by the component species, accounting for their different ... -
A simulation model assisted study on water and nitrogen dynamics and their effects on crop performance in the wheat-maize system: (II) model calibration, evaluation and simulated experimentation
(Springer Verlag, 2009-05)The test on the model with data collected from two years ' field experiments revealed an ability to satisfactorily simulate crop parameters such as LAI, biomass accumulation and partitioning, yield, and variables influencing ... -
A simulation model-assisted study on water and nitrogen dynamics and their effects on crop performance in the wheat-maize system I: The model
(Springer Verlag, 2007-04)Based on data collected from field experiments, a comprehensive model was built on the Ithink (a registered trademark of iSee Systems) platform to simulate the dynamics of water and nitrogen, and crop performance in the ... -
A test of a model for light interception by mixtures
(CSIRO Publishing, 1984-12)Predicted and observed data for the amount of light energy intercepted by mixtures of clover and ryegrass are compared, in an additional test of a model which relates competition for light to crop dry matter production. ... -
Adaptive scaffolding toward transdisciplinary collaboration: Reflective polyvocal self-study
(Springer International Publishing, 2022-12-16)Contemporary global challenges require experts from various disciplines to work together. Since every field of knowledge has its unique language and discipline-based culture, collaborative inquiry presents an additional ... -
Age and structure of the fish hatchery stock, lower Rapid River Canyon, west-central Idaho
(Wichita State University, 2018-05)The Salmon River Suture Zone of west-central Idaho records Mesozoic accretion of island arc terranes to the western margin of Laurentia. Located west of the suture zone, exposures near Riggins, Idaho, represent accreted ... -
Agricultural science education on the internet
(Science and Education Centre of North America (SCENA), 1996-01) -
An introduction to global learning
(EdItLib, 2003) -
Assessment strategies for global learning: I theory
(Association for the Advancement of Computing in Education (AACE), 2003)Global Learning is best achieved through project-based or other active approaches to learning by teams of people living in countries with vastly different cultures. The definition of "global learning" used here is the ... -
Assessment strategies for global learning: II case studies
(EdItLib, 2003)The processes of assessment have begun to take pride of place in considerations of online teaching and learning. As the technological means become more robust for bringing students together online, designs of various kinds ... -
Cage Painting within the fifth discipline of learning organisations
(Inderscience, 2008-12)Learning organisations face new challenges in the 21st century. Increased flow of trade in commodities, manufactured goods and information as well as mobility of people have led to increased global interdependence, ... -
Calling Palestine: Enriching learning in women's studies
(EdItLib, 2003)This presentation explores how the use of inexpensive technologies, enriched student learning about Arab Women and the Middle East. The goal was to understand that the meaning of gender emerges within disparate political ... -
Cave-Fill Deposits in Pre-Atokan Paleocaves in the Mississippian (Osagean) Burlington-Keokuk Limestone in Southwestern Missouri
(Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2011-05-04)Two siliciclastic-filled (sandstone and shale) paleocaves in the Mississippian (Osagean) Burlington-Keokuk Limestone are exposed in roadcuts in Dade County, Missouri. These caves formed in pre-Atokan time as suggested by ... -
Co-constructing intercultural communication competence through an online cage painting simulation and scenario repository: A theoretical perspective
(2006)Increased migration and international travel, the connectivity and information access provided by the Internet, and reduced trade barriers are some characteristics of a world that we refer to as being borderless. The world ... -
Comparison of quantitative X-ray diffraction methods for characterizing composition and yield between distilled water and dispersant-aided extractions
(Wichita State University, 2019-07)This research attempted to quantify the relative advantages and disadvantages of competing methods for extraction and characterization of mineral colloid material (effective spherical diameter 100 - 1000 nm) in soils. ... -
Complexity and Ecology
(Springer Netherlands, 2005-12)Covering an area of more than 6 million square kilometres, the Amazon Basin dominates northern Brazil and forms a large part of the South American continent. The richness of its biodiversity, and the hostility of its natural ... -
Complexity in landscapes
(Springer Netherlands, 2005-12)In the previous chapter, we saw that interactions between organisms lead to complexity in ecosystems. Interactions between organisms and their environment also contribute. Soil formation, for instance, involves a combination ... -
Concept system analysis of the ThirdPlaceLearning theory
(2014-06)The ThirdPlaceLearning (TPL) frame and its sub-frames, constructed by Cognitive Linguistics methods, is a visual representation of the interconnected concepts. A list of defined terms and their underlying concepts were ... -
Considering the formation of hematite spherules on a Mars by freezing queous hematite nanoparticle suspensions
(Elsevier B.V., 2017-04)The enigmatic and unexpected occurrence of coarse crystalline (gray) hematite spherules at Terra Meddiani on Mars in association with deposits of jarosite-rich sediments fueled a variety of hypotheses to explain their ...
