COMPARISON OF FAT SOURCES ON DIGESTION AND RUMINAL BIOHYDROGENATION IN CATTLE CONSUMING A FEEDLOT RATION
(2014-01-15)
Supplemental fat is predominantly fed in feedlots to increase the energy value of the ration. Feedlots utilize supplemental fat to replace energy from grains because of its lower cost per unit of DE. Our objective was to ...

APPLICATION OF CARBOHYDRATES AND PHENOLS AS BIOMARKERS TO STUDY DISSOLVED ORGANIC MATTER RESERVOIRS IN ARCTIC RIVERS.
(2014-01-22)
Arctic rivers are the dominant pathways for the transport of terrestrial dissolved organic carbon to the Arctic Ocean, but knowledge of sources, transformations and transfer of organic carbon and nitrogen in Arctic river ...
Comparison of Three Digestibility Markers in Beef Cattle Fed Finishing Rations Containing Different Sources of Supplemental Fat
(2014-01-22)
Beef cattle production is profoundly dependent on the diets provided to the cattle and their ability to promote growth. Dietary markers significantly aid beef cattle nutritionists by providing an index to measure diet ...
Analyzing Volunteer Geographic Information Accuracy and Determining its Capabilities for Scientific Research Data
(2014-02-28)
The primary purpose of this research project is to develop, test, and evaluate a volunteered geographic information (VGI) based approach for collecting data in order to assess its accuracy and relativity to a field of ...
THE EFFECT OF GREYWATER IRRIGATION ON THE HYDRO-STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL
(2014-12-17)
As population increases, resources critical for human existence - water, food, and energy - become increasingly scarce, making it imperative to conserve, reuse, and recycle these resources. A largely untapped, non-conventional ...
ACCOUNTING FOR SOIL ORGANIC CARBON IN ESTIMATING SOIL HYDRAULIC PROPERTIES
(2014-09-22)
Soil scientists and agronomists know that increases in soil organic matter change the way that soil and water interact. Soil high in organic matter develop stronger aggregation and soil structure resulting in increased ...
The Feline Skin Microbiome: The Microorganisms Inhabiting The Skin of Healthy And Allergic Cats
(2014-09-02)
The skin in inhabited by a multitude of microorganisms. In order to further understand how disease and the microbiome are related, we propose to set a standard for what the commensal bacterial microbiome is on the skin of ...
Using a Motor Imagery Training Program to Reduce Fall Risk Among the Elderly
(2014-09-18)
Falls contribute to the elderly’s highest number of unintentional injuries. Clearly, falling has significant implications in our aging population. Reach movements typically performed by the elderly are linked with fall ...
Enhancing Osteochondral Regeneration Using Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells
(2014-10-02)
An osteochondral defect is a joint injury characterized by the loss of cartilage along with a thin layer of bone beneath it. The cause of this condition is attributed to a number of factors, including repetitive trauma ...
