A multiscale analysis of factors influencing the distributions of birds in the southern Great Plains.
(1998)I studied the influence of local- and landscape-level habitat factors on breeding-bird communities in a prairie landscape in southwestern Oklahoma, U.S.A. Local habitat characteristics were sampled at study plot transects. ... -
A multiscale analysis of nest-site choice, nest success, and population abundance in the scissor-tailed flycatcher (Tyrannus forficatus).
(2000)I used BBS data and habitat maps to examine associations of landscape structure and composition with the relative mean abundance of the scissor-tailed flycatcher. Routes were scattered over most of the breeding range. ... -
Multiscale analysis of seismic event source parameter resolution and characterization
(2021)Earthquake source parameters such as stress drop help us understand the underlying physics of tectonic stress loading and releasing associated with the occurrence of earthquakes, and the influence of human activity on the ... -
A Multiscale Investigation of the 26–27 April 2011 Tornado Outbreak
(2021-12)One of the most prolific tornado outbreaks ever documented occurred on 26–27 April 2011 and comprised three successive episodes of tornadic convection that primarily impacted the southeastern United States, including two ... -
Multiscale modeling of fractured reservoir stimulation and induced seismicity
(2020-12-18)Natural fractures and fracture networks characteristics significantly influence the success of reservoir stimulations. Subsurface and surface investigations consider various geophysical techniques to probe and measure ... -
Multiscale Modeling of Hybrid Structural Composites Enhanced by Aligned Zinc Oxide Nanowires
(2022-05)Interfacial properties between fibers and matrix can significantly impact the overall performance of the composite structures. One pioneering approach to enhancing the interfacial properties is growing nanostructures on ... -
Multiscale Modeling of Nanoparticles Transport, Aggregation, and In Situ Gelation in Porous Media
(2017)Nanoparticle applications in the petroleum industry have grown recently especially in EOR and well stimulation. Transport of nanoparticles in porous media involves different interaction mechanisms either between nanoparticles ... -
MULTISCALE NATURAL FRACTURE CHARACTERIZATION WORKFLOW FOR UNCONVENTIONAL SHALE, WOODFORD AND BARNETT SHALES AS EXAMPLES
(2019-12-13)This research presents an integrated methodology and workflow to characterize, interpret and predict natural fracture occurrence in different scales for unconventional shales using the Devonian-Mississippian Woodford and ... -
MULTISCALE RESPONSES TO PERTURBATION IN THE CONTEXT OF A HIGHLY CONTAMINATED FIELD SITE
(2024-05-10)Microbes and microbial communities are ubiquitous in the environment and responsible for the cycling of carbon, sulfur, nitrogen, phosphorous, and more, while also being subject to variable conditions ranging from seasonal ... -
MULTISCALE SIMULATIONS OF HEAT TRANSFER IN NANOCOMPOSITES
(2012)The field of nanotechnology has been expanded by the discovery of fullerenes and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the 20th century. Geim and Novoselov won the Nobel prize in 2010 for their work on graphene sheets (GSs). Those ... -
Multiscale, multiphysics modeling of subsurface engineering applications
(2020-12)Fluid flow, particle transport, and chemical reactions in porous media play a vital role in various disciplines, including hydrology, medicine, and engineering. In particular, in the petroleum industry, subsurface engineering ... -
A multisectoral analysis of the business cycle /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1970) -
Multistatic Passive Weather Radar
(2020-05-08)Practical and accurate estimation of three-dimensional wind fields is an ongoing challenge in radar meteorology. Multistatic (single transmitter / multiple receivers) radar architectures offer a cost effective solution for ... -
Multivariate analyses of traffic accidents at bridge approaches and their relationships to geometrics of roadways /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1971) -
A multivariate analysis of first graders' print awareness as related to reading achievement, intelligence and gender.
(1982)Not confirmed were the hypothesized individual effects of reading ability and intelligence on print awareness scores. With intelligence controlled, individual measures of reading accounted for less than 20% of the variance ... -
Multivariate analysis of salinity effects on mayfly distributions along a complex river continuum.
(1982)The association between the benthic community structure and the river gradient as described in the river continuum concept is evaluated in the saline stressed Washita River. Physical, chemical and biological variables were ... -
Multiwavelength analyses of a small sample of nearby spiral galaxies: The radio and X-ray connection.
(2006)Included is a preliminary report on radio analyses of M101 and NGC 3184. The deep radio observations of M101 yield 28 compact radio sources. A shorter set of observations for NGC 3184 yield the detection of 10 radio sources. ...
