Hydroclimate Changes to Arid regions subjected to Impact of climate change, human activities, and Large-scale climate patterns
DownloadSpring 2020
In recent years, many regions worldwide have suffered from natural hazards related to the impact of human activities and climate change, such as floods and droughts, sea level rise, extreme weather events and an accelerated hydrological cycle. In Africa, the driest continent on Earth, climate...

Assessment of energy efficiency improvement opportunities and the long-term potential for greenhouse gas mitigation in industrial sector
DownloadSpring 2019
Concerns about climate change have resulted in a global agreement on the need for collective actions to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In Canada, the 9th largest global GHG emitter, the industrial sector is a major source of GHG emissions, accounting for 37% of the national...

Phytochemicals as mediators for host range expansion of a native invasive forest insect herbivore.
Download2019-01-01
Mountain pine beetle (MPB, Dendroctonus ponderosae) has recently breached the geo-climatic barrier of the northern Rocky Mountains and invaded novel jack pine (Pinus banksiana) forests in western Canada. This breach signifies an unprecedented climate change-induced invasion of a new plant biome...

Consequences of distributional asymmetry in a warming environment: Invasion of novel forests by the mountain pine beetle
Download2017
Burke, Jordan Lewis, Bohlmann, Joerg, Carroll, Allan L.
The range of many Holarctic forest insects does not comprise the entire range of their hosts, as they are often limited to more southern latitudes by the adverse effects of cold temperatures. Global climate warming has led to the increased potential for forest insects to invade novel habitats of...
