Patient transportation in Canada’s northern territories: patterns, costs and providers’ perspectives
Download2019-05-25
Young, T. Kue, Tabish, Taha, Young, Stephanie K., Healey, Gwen
"Canada’s northern territories are characterized by small, scattered populations separated by long distances. A major challenge to healthcare delivery is the reliance on costly patient transportation, especially emergency air evacuations (medevacs). The purpose of this study was to describe the...

Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) microgel-based etalons and etalon arrays for determining the molecular weight of polymers in solution
Download2013
Serpe, Michael J., Islam, Molla R.
Positively and/or negatively charged poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)-based microgels were deposited on a single substrate and isolated regions of Au overlayers were deposited on top of the microgels. Each spatially isolated Au overlayer region had a different thickness to make an etalon array. We...

Records of atmospheric mercury deposition and post-depositional mobility in peat permafrost archives from central and northern Yukon, Canada
DownloadFall 2017
Environmental archives provide a feasible means for studying the biogeochemical cycling of heavy metals including mercury (Hg). Although many temperate peat bogs have been successfully used to reconstruct natural and anthropogenic atmospheric Hg deposition fluxes, northern circumpolar permafrost...

Spatiotemporal Patterns and Population Characteristics of Harvested Wolverine (Gulo gulo) in Yukon
DownloadSpring 2017
Wolverines (Gulo gulo) are harvested for fur in Yukon, Canada, but little is known about the sustainability of their harvest. In the absence of population data, harvest management relies on harvest data to assess the efficacy of regulations and harvest sustainability. I examined the...

Study of multipactor suppression of microwave components using perforated waveguide technology for space applications
Download2017-01-01
Ye, Ming, Li, Yun, He, Yongning, Daneshmand, Mojgan
With the development of space technology, microwave components with increased power handling capability and reduced weight have been urgently required. In this work, the perforated waveguide technology is proposed to suppress the multipactor effect of high power microwavecomponents. Meanwhile,...
