Identifying Prognostic Factors for Adverse Outcomes in Adults with Bacteremic Pneumococcal Pneumonia
DownloadSpring 2016
Bacteremic pneumococcal pneumonia (BPP) is a severe form of invasive pneumonia that continues to cause significant morbidity and mortality worldwide, yet large-scale studies identifying prognostic factors for adverse outcomes in patients with BPP is significantly lacking. Furthermore,...

Identifying seasonal Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) movement patterns and habitat selection in the South Saskatchewan River Basin
DownloadFall 2016
Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens Rafinesque 1817) have experienced population declines throughout their range. In Alberta, low density age-class distributions, irregular recruitment, critically low spawning potential ratios and other factors led to a 2007 designation of “Threatened” for this...

Collisions of motorized transport with wildlife impact a wide range of species and can cause injuries and economic losses to people. On roads, vehicle collisions with animals have been studied extensively, resulting in mitigation measures that reduce collisions by segregating animals and...

Squires, J.E., Estabrooks, C., Gustavsson, P., Wallin, L.
Background: Interventions that have a better than random chance of increasing nurses' use of research are important to the delivery of quality patient care. However, few reports exist of successful research utilization in nursing interventions. Systematic identification and evaluation of...

Low intensity surface fire instigates movement by adults of Calosoma frigidum (Coleoptera, Carabidae)
Download2011
Jacobs, J. M, Work, T. T., Spence, J. R., Bergeron, J. A. C.
Abstract: The genus Calosoma (Coleoptera: Carabidae) is a group of large, sometimes ornate beetles, which often voraciously attack caterpillars. Many studies have reported Calosoma beetles being highly conspicuous during defoliator outbreaks. Based on observations of individual beetle behavior,...

Migration and survival of Parnassius smintheus: Detecting effects of habitat for individual butterflies
Download2004
Hanski, I., Roland, J., Matter, S. F., Moilanen, A.
We examined the migration and survival of the butterfly Parnassius smintheus in a heterogeneous landscape consisting of 21 habitat patches imbedded in a matrix of meadow and forest habitat. We modified an existing mark-release-recapture model to account for multiple habitat types and fit the...

Minimally-invasive assessments of the behavioural and physiological effects of enriched colony cages on laying hens
Download2011
Korver, Doug R., Schaefer, Allan L., Cook, Nigel J., Feddes, John J. R., Church, John S., Haley, Derek B.
The well-being of laying hens in cages of 5, 10, 20 and 40-birds/cage, and enrichment with perches, nest boxes and scratch pads, was assessed using behavioral and physiological parameters. Laying hens were Lohmann Brown (n = 360) and White Leghorns (n = 360), housed from 17 to 65 weeks of age....

Movement and settlement patterns of animal offspring, along with the costs of occupying familiar and unfamiliar habitats, have been inferred frequently, but rarely have they been documented directly. To obtain such information, we monitored the individual fates of 205 (94%) of the 219 offspring...
