A Model for the Solubility of Minerals in Saline Aqueous Fluids in the Crust and Upper Mantle
DownloadFall 2018
Quantifying and predicting the dissolution of minerals in complex (multicomponent) aqueous fluids across wide ranges of P-T space is critical for interpreting geologic processes that involve water-rock interactions in the Earth’s crust and upper mantle. Here, we define a new thermodynamic model...

Mathematical models have been widely applied to perform chemical risk assessments on biological populations for a variety of ecotoxicological pro- cesses. In this paper, by introducing a dose-dependent mortality rate function, we formulate a toxin-dependent aquatic population model that...

We have isolated and characterized regions important for expression of the mouse NaGraphic/HGraphic exchanger gene. A 1.1-kilobase fragment upstream of the 5′-untranslated region contains specific DNA motifs characteristic of promoter and enhancer elements including a TATA box, two CAAT boxes, an...

Background: Heart transplant is life-saving for children with end-stage congenital heart disease or acquired heart failure. Critical illness following transplantation can include acute kidney injury (AKI). There is little data on the epidemiology of, risk factors for, or impact on outcomes of...

Application of SWAT-MODFLOW Software to Evaluate Groundwater-Surface Water Interaction in West-Central Alberta
DownloadFall 2018
Responsible watershed management is emerging as a key issue as humanity continues to place increasing demands on water resources. To meet future demands, it has become imperative that water resources be managed as a holistic system rather than solely focusing on individual aspects....

Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) hatching in the Hudson Bay system: Testing of the freshwater winter refuge hypothesis
Download2022-01-01
Schembri, Sarah, Deschepper, Inge, Myers, Paul G., Sirois, Pascal, Fortier, Louis, Bouchard, Caroline, Maps, Frederic
Buoyant Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) eggs are found at the surface or at the ice-water interface in winter. While winter temperatures in saline waters fall below 0 degrees C, the temperature in areas affected by under-ice river plumes is slightly higher. Under-ice river plumes may therefore...

COUP-TF1 antagonizes Nkx25-mediated activation of the calreticulin gene during cardiac development
Download2001-01-01
Guo, Lei, Lynch, Jeffrey, Nakamur, Kimitoshi, Fliegel, Larry, Kasahara, Hideko, Izumo, Seigo, Komuro, Issei, Agellon, Luis B., Michalak, Marek
Calreticulin, a Ca2+ binding chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum, is also highly expressed in the embryonic heart, and knockout of the calreticulin gene is lethal during embryogenesis because of impaired cardiac development. The protein is down-regulated after birth, and elevated expression of...

The impact of parasites on hosts is invariably negative when considered in isolation, but may be complex and unexpected in nature. For example, if parasites make hosts less desirable to predators then gains from reduced predation may offset direct costs of being parasitized. We explore these...

Development of a Model using Machine Learning Intended to be Embedded in a Wearable Device to Detect Muscle Fatigue based on sEMG Data Associated with a Sustained Single 80% Maximum Voluntary Contraction
DownloadFall 2021
Background: Muscle fatigue is the progressive reduction in a muscle's ability to contract and exert force when performing a sustained task. Muscle fatigue may prevent the task from being complete and increase the risk of injury. Eventually, the performance of individuals during athletic...
