Spring 2017
Fluxgate magnetometers are an essential tool for solar-terrestrial research and monitoring or forecasting space weather. They provide high precision measurements of the Earth’s magnetic fields and can be used to infer the currents that transport energy and momentum through the magnetosphere and...

Canadian Public Perspective of the Canadian Psychological Association's Code of Ethics for Psychologists Principle Ranking
DownloadSpring 2015
A professional code of ethics guides professionals in their ethical decision-making, and is also intended to protect the public from harm that may result from the activities of that profession. The Canadian Psychological Association (CPA) created a Code of Ethics for Psychologists with four...

Comparative Analysis of the Anatomy of the Myxinoidea and the Ancestry of Early Vertebrate Lineages
DownloadFall 2012
The question of whether a hagfish is a true vertebrate or not has profound implications about the ancestry of the clade. New anatomical evidence allows a test of their systematic position. With dissections and serial sections of original specimens, and with a literature review, a comparative...

Rankin, Robert , Degeling, Alex W., Watt, Clare E.
We introduce a new methodology that allows the construction of wave frequency distributions due to growing incoherent whistler-mode waves in the magnetosphere. The technique combines the equations of geometric optics (i.e., raytracing) with the equation of transfer of radiation in an anisotropic...

Samson, J. C., Rankin, Robert, Wei, C. Q., Frycz, P.
A three-dimensional compressible resistive magnetohydrodynamic simulation code, with inclusion of the fully generalized Ohm's law, has been developed to study the nonlinear evolution of field line resonances in Earth's magnetosphere. A simple Cartesian box model of an inhomogeneous plasma with...

Homology in comparative, molecular, and evolutionary developmental biology: The radiation of a concept
Download2003
The present paper analyzes the use and understanding of the homology concept across different biological disciplines. It is argued that in its history, the homology concept underwent a sort of adaptive radiation. Once it migrated from comparative anatomy into new biological fields, the homology...

If It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Fix It: the Unintended Consequences of Large Language Model Code Repairs
Download2024-08-01
Nowadays, we heavily rely on ChatGPT to generate content, including writing code. But have you ever thought about the scenario where you input the correct content while GPT outputs a bug? This project aims to explore the unintended consequences of code repairs made by large language models. By...

Increasingly Parallel Pressure Anisotropic Ballooning Instability: A New Mechanism for Magnetospheric Substorm Onset
DownloadFall 2019
Geomagnetic substorms are a process through which energy stored in Earth’s magnetosphere is suddenly and violently released. On the ground, this process is largely observed as a vibrant and dancing display in the aurorae and is well documented, while the sequence of events that occurs in the...
