The Ripley Landslide is one of the smallest among the 12 landslides at the Ashcroft-Thompson River Valley, located approximately 10 km south of Ashcroft, B.C. Since it was first identified in 1951, it has been studied by numerous researchers to understand the kinematics controlling its behaviour....

Based on recent evidence of genetic differentiation in the Alberta contact zone of the Warbling Vireo, an ~85km stretch of land in Barrhead County, we sought to classify the Eastern subspecies (Vireo gilvus gilvus) and Western subspecies (Vireo gilvus swainsoni) through bioacoustic analysis. Our...

Radiocarbon dating — the process of finding the age of a material by using the radioactive isotope carbon-14 — is an important tool in observing and inferring past ecological events and changes. However, it is not without its uncertainties. While contamination and poor treatment in the lab can...

Despite universities attempting to adopt more EDI (equity, diversity, and inclusion) friendly policies and increasing encouragement for women and marginalized groups to pursue STEM, there continues to be underrepresentation of these individuals in STEM fields and tenure-track faculty positions....
