(Eventual) Stability and Change Across Partnerships
2019-01-01
Johnson, Matthew D.; Neyer, Franz J.
Does a new partnership differ from its preceding one? This study investigates whether relationship dynamics change as people transition from one partnership to another and examines a number of predictors that might explain variation in change trajectories. We draw on data gathered from 554 focal...

A 15,800-year record of atmospheric lead deposition on the Devon Island Ice Cap, Nunavut, Canada: Natural and anthropogenic enrichments, isotopic composition, and predominant sources
Download2007
Zheng, J., Fisher, D., Krachler, M., Shotyk, W.
Abstract: Using appropriate clean methods for handling and preparation, 57 ice samples from the Devon Island Ice Cap, representing the period 134 to 15,800 years before present (BP), were analyzed for Pb, Sc, and Pb isotopes (Pb-206, Pb-207, Pb-208) using ICP-SMS. The greatest Pb concentrations...

S., Lafleur, P., Kucharik, C., Black, T.A., Izaurralde, R. C., Arain, M. A.
Abstract: Our current understanding of terrestrial carbon processes is represented in various models used to integrate and scale measurements of CO2 exchange from remote sensing and other spatiotemporal data. Yet assessments are rarely conducted to determine how well models simulate carbon...

Harrington, J.B., Flannigan, M.D.
Long dry spells (sequences of dry days) are rare events, but they are important because they correlate significantly with the area burned during bad wildfire years. Previous attempts to model the frequency of dry spells have been successful for spells of short duration, but have failed for...

A model-data comparison of gross primary productivity: Results from the North American Carbon Program site synthesis
Download2012
Anderson, R., Poulter, B., Matamala, R., Lokipitiya, E., Chen, J.M., Verbeeck, H., Davis, K.J., Weng, E., Curtis, P.S., Tonitto, C., Munger, J.W., Ricciuto, D., Chen, J., Gu, L., Humphreys, E., Desai, A.R., Price, D.T., Raczka, B.M., Zhou, X., Peng, C., Torn, M., Hollinger, D.Y., Riley, W.J., Roulet, N., Black, A., Bolstad, P., Baker, I., Thornton, P., Monson, R., Jain, A., Law, B., Gough, C., Margolis, H.A., Dimitrov, D., Grant, R.F., Liu, S., McCaughey, J.H., Hilton, T.W., Sahoo, A., Dietze, M., Schaefer, K., Williams, C., Dragoni, D., Tian, H., Vargas, R., Schwalm, C.R., Richardson, A.D., Oechel, W., Kucharik, C., Barr, A., Altaf Arain, M.
Accurately simulating gross primary productivity (GPP) in terrestrial ecosystem models is critical because errors in simulated GPP propagate through the model to introduce additional errors in simulated biomass and other fluxes. We evaluated simulated, daily average GPP from 26 models against...

A Review of Alberta’s Economy in 2019 and Overview of Ways to Eliminate Fossil Fuels Using Marxism
Download2020-03-01
This discussion is an overview of the Albertan economy in 2019 with suggestions to eliminate fossil fuels from the equation. With the current state of the climate, shifting towards sustainable energy will be integral in prolonging the success of our species. The Albertan economy is based heavily...

A study of the relation of meteorological variables to monthly provincial area burned by wildfire in Canada 1953-80
Download1988
Harrington, J.B., Flannigan, M.D.
The relation between meteorological variables and the monthly area burned by wildfire from May to August 1953-80 in nine Canadian \"provinces\" was investigated. A purely statistical approach to estimating the monthly provincial area burned, using meteorological variables as predictors, succeeded...

Aging of high-performance fibers used in firefighters' protective clothing: State of the knowledge and path forward
Download2023-06-10
Md. Saiful Hoque, Patricia I. Dolez
High-performance fibers developed since the 1960s have a wide range of appli-cations including firefighters' protective clothing. Firefighters' protective cloth-ing made of inherently flame-resistant high-performance fibers offers excellentprotection in the new condition. However, these fibers...
