Stream Crossings in the Western Boreal Forest: Assessing Impacts and Prioritizing Restoration for Native Freshwater Fishes
DownloadFall 2015
Growing anthropogenic development in response to rising demands for natural resources is a major concern for freshwater fish, particularly in resource rich regions such as Canada’s boreal forest. Expanding networks of industrial resource roads has led to the installation of hundreds of thousands...

Synthesis and degradation of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) under different nutrient combinations in the alphaproteobacterial methanotroph, Methylocystis sp. Rockwell
DownloadFall 2023
Methane emissions and plastic pollution are two distinct environmental issues that arise from human activities. The ongoing increases in methane emissions and its atmospheric concentration pose a major environmental threat as methane is a potent greenhouse gas, with a warming effect 28 times...

Towards optimization of thickness, hardness, and porosity of low-pressure cold sprayed WC-Ni coatings.
Download2021-01-01
Jibran, Wania, Hogan, James D., McDonald, André
In this study, a 33 full factorial design methodology was used to analyze the effects of spray parameters on the thickness, hardness, and surface porosity of low-pressure cold-sprayed WC-17Ni coatings. Three levels were selected for the spray parameters included in the design which were the...

Tradeoffs Between Forestry Resource and Conservation Values Under Alternate Forest Policy Regimes: A Spatial Analysis of the Western Canadian Boreal Plains
Download2007
Cumming, Steve, Jagodzinski, Robert, Weber, Marian, Schmiegelow, Fiona, Adamowicz, Wiktor, Hauer, Grant
An important element of resource management and conservation is an understanding of the tradeoffs between marketed products such as timber and measures of environmental quality such as biodiversity. In this paper, we develop an integrated economic -- ecological spatial optimization model. The...
