A comparison of passive monitoring methods for gray wolves (Canis lupus) in Alberta, Canada
DownloadSpring 2019
Remote camera traps are often applied to large mammal conservation and management programs because they are cost-effective, allow for repeat surveys, and can be deployed for long time periods. Additionally, statistical advancements in calculating population metrics, such as density, from camera...

A discrete flow (S,X) is a semigroup S acting on a set X where both S, and X are equipped with the discrete topology. Amenability of semigroups is a topic that explores the existence of measures that are invariant under the semigroup multiplication. The goal of this thesis is to generalize these...

Beyond Viscosity—How Density, Vibration and Interfacial Tension Affect Solvent Aided Bitumen Production
DownloadFall 2016
Bitumen and heavy oil comprise a significant percentage of proven oil reserves globally. The environmental impacts of producing these resources with current technologies is a concern for environmentalists, oil producing companies, resource rich jurisdictions and society at large. Dilution of the...

Biology of Caloptilia fraxinella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) on ornamental green ash, Fraxinus pennsylvanica (Oleaceae)
Download2009
Abstract: The ash leaf cone roller, Caloltilia firaxinella (Ely), is a leaf-mining moth that has recently become a significant pest of horticultural ash, Fraxinus L., species in communities throughout the western prairie provinces of Canada. The study examines the spatial and temporal within-host...

Density, strain rate and strain effects on mechanical property evolution in polymeric foams
Download2022-03-01
Bhagavathula, Kapil Bharadwaj, Meredith, Christopher S., Ouellet, Simon, Romanyk, Dan L., Hogan, James D.
This study presents a comprehensive experimental study of the evolution of Poisson’s ratio and tangent modulus of polymeric foams during rate dependant uniaxial compression. In this study, polyurethane foams with densities of 195 kg/m3, 244 kg/m3, and 405 kg/m3 obtained from PORON (XRD series)...

Wilson, A.J., Pemberton, J.M., Coltman, D.W., Kruuk, L.E.B., Pilkington, J.G., Mifsud, D.V., Clutton-Brock, T.H.
There has recently been great interest in applying theoretical quantitative genetic models to empirical studies of evolution in wild populations. However, while classical models assume environmental constancy, most natural populations exist in variable environments. Here, we applied a novel...

Wright, Darren M., Watt, Clare E. J., Rae, I. Johnathan, Rankin, Robert
We present results from self-consistent simulations of the electron response to shear Alfvén pulses in the presence of non-uniform magnetic fields and the associated mirror force. We discuss how energies of resonantly accelerated beam particles are affected by the local phase velocity of the...

Modeling the Impacts of Global Change on Tree Growth and Stand Density of Boreal Forests in Canada
DownloadFall 2022
Abstract Global change of environment and human activity has profoundly impacted boreal forests in structure, dynamics and function, imposing serious challenges for maintaining forest growth and yield in Canada. In this thesis, I address three questions important for understanding and predicting...

Several studies have documented elevated rates of nest predation for passerines and grouse in small forest patches and near anthropogenic edges. We examined patterns of predation on artificial nests in aspen (Populust remuloidesw) oodlots and fencerows surrounded by agricultural land in Alberta....
