The Behaviour and Interactions of the Silica/Water Interface Studied through Nonlinear Optics
DownloadFall 2020
The chemistry of silica in contact with water is rich and diverse. These two substances are among the most ubiquitous on the surface of the Earth. Yet, despite many investigations into the interactions between silica and water, there is still more to discover. In aqueous solution, the silica...

The biosphere as an increasing sink for atmospheric carbon: estimates from increased nitrogen deposition
Download1993
Estimates of carbon uptake and storage based on global nitrogen deposition, C:N ratios for typical terrestrial ecosystems, and recent ecosystem-scale nutrient studies indicate that 1.0- 2.3 Gt C yr-1 of carbon storage may be stimulated by anthropogenically caused increases in nitrogen deposition...

Fall 2010
Anthropogenic noise is increasingly widespread as human development continues. Noise can negatively affect humans and wildlife, but the most deleterious effects are incurred by species that rely on vocal communication for mating, territory defence, and other vital functions. Songbirds are...

The Influence of a Railway on Grizzly Bears (Ursus arctos) in Canada’s Rocky Mountain Parks
DownloadSpring 2019
Linear features such as roads and railways threaten wildlife directly through collisions with vehicles. Although the adverse effects of roads on wildlife have been extensively studied resulting in widespread mitigation measures (e.g. fencing and highway crossing structures), far less attention...

The role of microtopography in vegetation colonization and early forest development on mine reclamation sites
DownloadSpring 2023
Microsite heterogeneity is an important variable that drives biodiversity in forests. Current forest reclamation practices often do not incorporate site heterogeneity in their practices which might pose a challenge to the reclamation goals of restoring disturbed sites to resilient and sustainable...

The role of terrestrial vegetation in atmospheric Hg deposition: Pools and fluxes of spike and ambient Hg from the METAALICUS experiment
Download2012
Graydon, J.A., Harris, R., St. Louis, V., Sandilands, K.A., Rudd, J.W.M., Kelly, C.A., Richardson, M., Emmerton, C.A., Lindberg, S.E., Tate, M.T., Asmath, H., Krabbenhoft, D.P.
As part of the Mercury Experiment to Assess Atmospheric Loading in Canada and the U.S. (METAALICUS), different stable Hg(II) isotope spikes were applied to the upland and wetland areas of a boreal catchment between 2001 and 2006 to examine retention of newly deposited Hg(II). In the present...

Unsaturated Flow Model
2019-06-06
Xiaochuan Tony Zheng, Tony Zheng
The un-saturated flow sub-model is based on a previously developed infiltration-drainage model. This research improves the original model by adding capabilities of handling dynamic boundary conditions and inter-layer overflow mechanisms. Additional validation cases are conducted to build...

Artemyev, Anton V., Vasko, Ivan Y., Rankin, Robert
We consider electron acceleration by kinetic Alfvén waves in the equatorial inner magnetosphere and plasma sheet boundary layer. The competition between the accelerating effect of the wave parallel electric field and mirror force acting on particles in an inhomogeneous background magnetic field...

Reid, R.E., Sherstabetoff, J.N.
Syncrude Canada Ltd. is producing synthetic crude oil from a surface mine on the eastern portion of Syncrude Lease 17. Hardy Associates was commissioned to describe and map the vegetation types and to assess forest productivity on the adjacent Lease 22 in order to add to Syncrude's baseline...
