SSHRC Awarded IDG 2017: Despite Canada's policies for encouraging immigration of the highly educated, and despite international students being described as 'designed to stay', we know little about how, when, or whether international students decide to stay in Canada. We know little about...

Digital Visualization of Transnationalism: Mapping Historical Migration of Hong Kong Migrants in Canada During the Handover of Hong Kong Period
DownloadFall 2016
Human migration is a global phenomenon driven by two factors: individual needs or desires, and changes in the economics and politics in the society from which the migration stems. Human migration usually involves people crossing international borders, but the impact is often felt locally, in the...

disPOSSESSION is a body of work that explores the accumulation of wealth of few and the displacement of many with a focus on the expansion of soy and beef production, ensuing environmental, social, and economic consequences, as well as connected indigenous land rights and peasant food sovereignty...

Disturbance has lasting effects on functional traits and diversity of grassland plant communities
Download2022-01-01
Ellen A Smith, Emily M Holden, Charlotte Brown, James F Cahill Jr
Background Localized disturbances within grasslands alter biological properties and may shift species composition. For example, rare species in established communities may become dominant in successional communities if they exhibit traits well-suited to disturbance conditions. Although the idea...

Early emergence of structural constraints on code-mixing: evidence from French-English bilingual children
Download2000
Genesee, F., Nicoladis, E., Paradis, J.
Does young bilingual children's code-mixing obey the same structural constraints as bilingual adults' code-mixing? The present study addresses this question using code-mixing data from 15 French±English bilingual children ®lmed in conversation with both parents at six-month intervals from the age...

Personality has been documented in diverse taxa and growing attention is being directed towards the ecological implications of consistent variation in individual behaviour. These implications include the rise in habituation behaviour by wildlife living in human-disturbed areas, which has resulted...

Effects of forest harvesting and fire on fish assemblages in Boreal Plains lakes: A reference condition approach
Download2003
Scrimgeour, G.J., Lange, M., Prepas, E.E., Westcott, K., Aku, P.K.M., Paszkowski, C.A., Tonn, W.M.
To assess the impacts of forest harvesting and fires on lentic fish assemblages in the Boreal Plains ecoregion (Alberta, Canada), we applied a reference condition approach to 37 lakes in burned, logged, or undisturbed catchments. Fish assemblages in the reference lakes were classified into two...

Human food production activities can dominate natural systems, altering ecological and evolutionary aspects of the environment. Disease-mediated interactions are of particular concern. For example, parasites may "spill-over'' from farms to wildlife. Parasites isolated on farms can evolve...

Efficient algorithms for least squares wave equation migration and source signature estimation
DownloadFall 2017
Estimating accurate images of the subsurface is one of the end products of seismic data processing. Numerical solutions to the wave equation allow designing linearized forward operators. The adjoint of the linearized forward operator is used to image the interior of the earth. The adjoint...
