Self-determination is a core concept framing the historical and ongoing efforts of Inuit in Nunavut seeking to align the territory’s social and political institutions with Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit (IQ), or Inuit ways of knowing, being and doing. Educational self-determination represents an...

"The GNB3 825T allele encodes a product that has enhanced activation of heterotrimeric G proteins in vitro and could play a role in adipogenesis. We therefore evaluated the possibility that the GNB3 825T allele was associated with obesity in a sample of 213 healthy Canadian Inuit. We found that...

Ice-Atmosphere Interactions on the Devon Ice Cap, Canada: the Effects of Climate Warming on Surface Energy Balance, Melting, and Firn Stratigraphy
DownloadSpring 2014
In order to better constrain the magnitude of projected sea-level rise from Canadian Arctic glaciers during the 21st century warming, it is critical to understand the environmental mechanisms that enhance surface warming and melt, and how the projected increase in surface melt will translate into...

Identifying seasonal Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) movement patterns and habitat selection in the South Saskatchewan River Basin
DownloadFall 2016
Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens Rafinesque 1817) have experienced population declines throughout their range. In Alberta, low density age-class distributions, irregular recruitment, critically low spawning potential ratios and other factors led to a 2007 designation of “Threatened” for this...

Impacts of a six year old pipeline right of way on Halimolobos virgata (Nutt.) O.E. Schulz (slender mouse ear cress), native dry mixedgrass prairie uplands, and wetlands
DownloadSpring 2016
Reclamation of native prairie ecosystems is of growing importance as they continue to be impacted by anthropogenic disturbances. Since European settlement, Alberta grasslands have declined by 61 %. Grasslands are agriculturally important, act as a carbon sink, and many species depend upon them....

Long-Term Impacts of Severe Wildfire and Salvage Logging on Macroinvertebrate Assemblages and Food Web Structure in Rocky Mountain Headwater Streams
DownloadFall 2019
Wildfire is an important natural disturbance on forested landscapes influencing both physical and biological processes. The Lost Creek wildfire in 2003 was one of the more severe on Alberta’s eastern slopes and provided a unique opportunity to assess the long-term impacts of wildfire on northern...

Modeling the carbon balance of Amazonian rain forests: resolving ecological controls on net ecosystem productivity
Download2009
de Oliveira, R. C., Munger, J. W., Wofsy, S. C., Hutra, L. R., Grant, R. F., Saleska, S. R.
Abstract: There is still much uncertainty about ecological controls on the rate and direction of net CO(2) exchange by tropical rain forests, in spite of their importance to global C cycling. These controls are thought to arise from hydrologic and nutrient constraints to CO(2) fixation caused by...
