Assessing Spatial and Temporal Variation in Source Water Quality and Drinking Water Treatability Across a Gradient of Forest Harvest on Vancouver Island, BC
DownloadFall 2021
On Canada’s Pacific Coast, forestry is integral to society. Although economically important, harvesting practices may alter source waters that originate in forested watersheds through changes in suspended solids (SS) and dissolved organic matter (DOM). Each of these metrics has the potential to...

Caribou hunting at ice patches: seasonal mobility and long-term land-use in the southwest Yukon
DownloadSpring 2011
Recently documented ice patch sites in the southwest Yukon are ideal for evaluating precontact hunter-gatherer land-use patterns in the western subarctic. Located in the alpine of the mountainous regions of the boreal forest, ice patches are associated with well preserved hunting equipment,...

This thesis explores the market efficiency in the US and Canadian corporate bond markets through examining the profitability and time variations of two widely studied asset pricing anomalies, i.e., the momentum effect and the return seasonality. The momentum effect refers to the abnormal gains...

Variation in the temporal pattern of vulnerability can provide important insights into predator-prey relationships and the evolution of antipredator behavior. We illustrate these points with a system that has coyotes (Canis latrans) as a predator and two species of congeneric deer (Odocoileus...

The critical domain size problem determines the size of the region of habitat needed to ensure population persistence. In this paper we address the critical domain size problem for seasonally fluctuating stream environments and determine how large a reach of suitable stream habitat is needed to...

Seasonal patterns of mortality for boreal caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in an intact environment
DownloadSpring 2020
Seasonality is an important component in shaping the dynamics that influence ecosystems, including mortality. Animals experience temporal variation in vulnerability to mortality due to interactions among environmental conditions, nutritional condition, age and life stages, and changes in their...

The influence of morphological variation on migration performance in a trans-hemispheric migratory songbird
Download2015-01-01
Lam, Lawrence, McKinnon, Emily A., Ray, James D., Pearman, Myrna, Hvenegaard, Glen T., Mejeur, James, Moscar, Lauren, Pearson, Mackenzie, Applegate, Kelly, Mammenga, Paul, Tautin, John, Fraser, Kevin C.
For long-distance migratory songbirds, morphological traits such as longer wings and a smaller body size are predicted to increase migration efficiency. Due to previous limitations in our ability to track the long-distance journeys of small-bodied birds, the relationship between morphology and...
