Refocusing the focus on adherence to antiretroviral therapy using a community-based participatory research approach
DownloadFall 2014
Adherence to antiretroviral therapy is critical to treatment success. Using an epidemiological and community-based participatory research approach, my thesis reports on two papers related to antiretroviral therapy success (and subsequent failure). My thesis also includes a third paper which...

Seeing the forest for the soil: topographic controls on soil carbon dynamics in the boreal mixedwood forest
DownloadFall 2018
Boreal forest soils store an estimated 272 Pg of carbon. Due to a high degree of spatial heterogeneity, there is a wide range in carbon stores in this ecosystem. Changes in topography and forest structure are important to carbon distribution, influencing the soil microclimate and the chemical...

Transition Metal Oxide Nanoparticles Decorated Carbon Nanomaterials as Earth-Abundant Electrocatalysts for Zinc-Air Batteries
DownloadFall 2022
As awareness of global warming increases and the geopolitically influenced energy supply fluctuates, the global economy is in dire need of a transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. Although renewable energies are sustainable and have favorable environmental impacts, they suffer...

With climate change rapidly affecting northern forests and wetlands, mercury reserves once protected in cold, wet soils are being exposed to burning, likely triggering large releases of mercury to the atmosphere. We quantify organic soil mercury stocks and burn areas across western, boreal Canada...
