Baugh, Lauren, Laughton, Sara, McKnight, Cassandra, Walker, Rebecca, Paslawski, Teresa
Interactions with animals have long been shown to improve human health through improved mood, increased physical activity, and decreased anxiety and social isolation (Fine, 2015). These effects have been harnessed in healthcare through therapeutic approaches such as animal-assisted therapy (AAT)....

Sutter, Kendra, Simioni, Andrea, Skriver, Crystal, Alain, Jill, Ostapowich, Desiree, De Leon, Michelle
Adults with neurological communication disorders have the potential to benefit from the materials, technology, and services available at their local libraries. The purpose of this project was to analyze and revise the form, content, and use of a materials pamphlet intended to facilitate access to...

Assessing the Preconception Dietary Intake of Canadian Adults using a new, short dietary assessment tool: The PREP’D Study
DownloadFall 2021
Background: A self-administered, 24-question dietary tool, called the Diet Screening for Adults in Canada (D-SAC), was chosen for use by the Canadian, Healthy Life Trajectories Initiative (HeLTI-Canada). Assessment of the reproducibility and comparability (to another dietary assessment tool) of...

Inconsistent results have been reported in studies investigating the relationship between serum vitamin D levels and respiratory outcomes. In this thesis, data from the Canadian Health Measures Survey were used to examine the relationship between serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and...

Broccoli sprout supplementation during placental insufficiency confers structural and functional neuroprotection to the fetal rat
DownloadSpring 2010
Background: Perinatal ischemic brain injury leads to developmental disability (DD), which accounts for 30% of disabilities in children. Antepartum risk, or risk occurring prior to birth occurs in more than 90% of cases. This study investigated whether maternal ingestion of a natural health...

Longrich, N. R., Currie, P. J., Erickson, G. M., Horner, J. R.
Background: Tyrannosaurus rex was one of the largest terrestrial carnivores of all time, and consequently its ecology and diet have been the focus of much discussion. However, there is little direct evidence of diet or feeding habits in this species. Methodology/Principal Findings: Examination...

Climbing simulated vegetation to heights of ungulate hosts by larvae of Dermacentor albipictus (Acari: Ixodidae)
Download2000
Samuel, W. M., Shostak, A. W., McPherson, M.
Abstract: Larvae of winter ticks, Dermacentor albipictus (Packard), ascend vegetation in autumn and form clumps that attach to passing ungulate hosts. We tested the hypothesis that vegetation height determines the height of clumps. During the vegetation-to-ungulate transmission period (early...

Comparison of the open‐closed separatrix in a global magnetospheric simulation with observations: The role of the ring current
Download2010
Kabin, Konstantin, Lu, J. Y., Rankin, Robert, Gombosi, Tamas I., Watt, Clare E. J., Ridley, Aaron J., Toth, Gabor, Milan, Steve E., Zhang, Jichun, Rae, I. Johnathan, Clauer, C. Robert, De Zeeuw, Darren L., Fenrich, Frances
The development of global magnetospheric models, such as Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF), which can accurately reproduce and track space weather processes has high practical utility. We present an interval on 5 June 1998, where the location of the polar cap boundary, or open-closed field...

We present Van Allen Probes observations of modulations in the flux of very energetic electrons up to a few MeV and protons between 1200 and 1400 UT on 19 February 2014. During this event the spacecraft were in the dayside magnetosphere at L⋆≈5.5. The modulations extended across a wide range of...
