An Intersectional Perspective on Experiences Inspiring Transition to University Among First Nations Learners
DownloadFall 2017
The literature on the university participation of First Nations (First Peoples of Canada) learners pointed to historic K 12 challenges and competing demands that hinder their transition to university. Although learners’ attendance is rising steadily, more females than males attend university. ...

Anterior and Middle Cranial Base Growth and Development Changes as Assessed Through CBCT Imaging in Adolescents
DownloadFall 2015
Introduction: In this study three dimensional Cone beam computed tomography is used to evaluate intra-rater, inter-rater and accuracy of selected 3D landmarks of anterior and middle cranial bases. Growth related dimensional changes of anterior and middle cranial base structures are then assessed ...

Application of a biomechanical finite element spine model to the vicious cycle scoliosis growth theory: evaluation of improved FEA geometry and material assignment
DownloadFall 2009
Scoliosis is defined as the abnormal three dimensional curvature of the spine with 80% of all cases being idiopathic in nature. If left unchecked, this condition can cause cardio-pulmonary complications and occasionally death. Currently, the most common method of treatment of scoliosis is through...

Best Management Practices for Implementing Ultra-Early Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Growing Systems on the Northern Great Plains
DownloadSpring 2023
Ultra-early planting of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) between soil temperatures of 0°C and 7.5°C on the northern Great Plains allows the exploitation of longer growing seasons and the avoidance of the onset of extreme heat later in the season during sensitive physiological growth stages,...

Co-Fermentation of Wheat and Whey Permeate for Ethanol Production and Chemical Characteristics of the Resulting Dried Distillers' Grains with Solubles
DownloadFall 2014
The vast majority of global bio-ethanol production uses food crops as the primary feedstocks, which leads to the high dependence of ethanol production cost on the price of the crop-based carbon resources. The demand, and interests, to use cheaper non-crop-based carbon sources for the ethanol...

Competition Impacts on Hybrid Poplar and Implications for Alternative Establishment Systems
DownloadSpring 2015
The effects of different vegetation control practices on tree-weed interactions and associated establishment and early tree growth were investigated in 1-3 year old hybrid poplar plantations containing Walker poplar (Populus deltoides x (P. laurifolia x P. nigra)) and its progeny Okanese poplar...

Fall 2015
The existing literature debates whether selling, general and administrative (SG&A) spending is on average beneficial to shareholders as an asset-like investment or detrimental to shareholders as the result of empire building. I address this debate by examining the behavior and consequence of SG&A...
