Fall 2014
This thesis is focused on the Si-based anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) as well as biomass-derived carbons for LIBs and sodium-ion batteries (NIBs). In our first attempt we investigated the effect of the support growth substrate as well as of aluminum coating layers on the...

Simulated impacts of relative climate change and river discharge regulation on sea ice and oceanographic conditions in the Hudson Bay Complex
Download2021-01-01
Lukovich, Jennifer V., Jafarikhasragh, Shabnam, Myers, Paul G., Ridenour, Natasha A., de la Guardia, Laura Castro, Hu, Xianmin, Grivault, Nathan, Marson, Juliana, Pennelly, Clark, Stroeve, Julienne C., Sydor, Kevin, Wong, Karen, Stadnyk, T. A., Barber, D. G.
In this analysis, we examine relative contributions from climate change and river discharge regulation to changes in marine conditions in the Hudson Bay Complex using a subset of five atmospheric forcing scenarios from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), river discharge...

Social vulnerability and climate change adaptation: The critical importance of moving beyond technocratic policy approaches
Download2021-10-01
Kehler, Sarah, Birchall, S. Jeff
Planning policy can play a key role in effective, equitable climate change adaptation; however, its capacity remains undermined by technocratic approaches reliant on hard measures, discounting significant research on addressing sources of social vulnerability for successful adaptation policy. Not...

Soil Organic Carbon Content and Stability, and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Three Agroforestry Systems in Central Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2016
Western Canada’s prairie region is extensively cultivated for agricultural production, which is a large source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Agroforestry systems are common land uses across Canada, which integrate trees into the agricultural landscape and could play a substantial role in...

Spatial and temporal stand dynamics of mature lodgepole pine forests of the Canadian Rocky Mountains
DownloadFall 2015
In forest ecosystems, structure and species composition change over time as a function of ageing and minor disturbances and it is important to understand these changes for predicting forest productivity and habitat suitability for other plant and animal biota. Disturbances play a major role in...

Spatial and Temporal Variations in Tree Growth, Mortality, and Biodiversity in Alberta Forests
DownloadSpring 2014
Understanding the spatial and temporal variation of tree demographic rates and biodiversity is essential for predicting the dynamics of forest ecosystems and their responses to changing environments. This thesis contributes to that understanding through modeling the long-term change in tree...
