The interaction between a capsule (bubble or droplet) and a flow structure of the continuous phase can affect the properties of the liquids, cells, and particles transferring within the capsule. Channel geometry is a common example of the flow structure influencer. Investigating the effect of...

Capillary microfluidics is gaining popularity due to its role in recent advances in life science applications. Designing a new and optimized microfluidic platform, as well as having a broader understanding of its function and fundamental physics, are still significant technological problems....

The forward and inverse displacement problems (FDP, IDP) are solved for a 4-DOF hybrid cable-driven parallel manipulator. This manipulator uses three cables and one extensible rod to manipulate the mobile platform, and shares some kinematic similarities to the well-studied Stewart-Gough...

Z-axis tipper electromagnetic (ZTEM) and broadband magnetotelluric (MT) data were used to determine three-dimensional (3-D) electrical resistivity models of the Morrison porphyry Cu-Au-Mo deposit in British Columbia. ZTEM data are collected with a helicopter, thus allowing rapid surveys with...

In this article, we examine atmospheric and river discharge conditions within the Hudson Bay Complex for the BaySys 2016-2018 field program time frame. Investigated in particular is a subset of European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) Re-Analysis - Interim (ERA-Interim)...

The long-term trend of increasing phytoplankton net primary production (NPP) in the Arctic correlates with increasing light penetration due to sea ice loss. However, recent studies suggest that enhanced stormy wind mixing may also play a significant role enhancing NPP. Here, we isolate the role...

Baffin Bay exports Arctic Water to the North Atlantic while receiving northward flowing Atlantic Water. Warm Atlantic Water has impacted the retreat of tidewater glaciers draining the Greenland Ice Sheet. Periods of enhanced Atlantic Water transport into Baffin Bay have been observed, but the...

The Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) stores the largest amount of freshwater in the Northern Hemisphere and has been recently losing mass at an increasing rate. An eddy-permitting ocean general circulation model is forced with realistic estimates of freshwater flux from the GrIS. Two approaches are...

We use an eddy-permitting, 1/12° regional configuration of the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO) model to examine water mass subduction rates in the Labrador Sea for the 2002–2013 period. An instantaneous kinematic subduction approach is implemented to calculate the subduction...

The Hudson Bay Complex is the outlet for many Canadian rivers, receiving roughly 900 km3/year of river runoff. Historically, studies found a consistent cyclonic flow year-round in Hudson Bay, due to the geostrophic boundary current induced by river discharge and cyclonic wind forcing that was...
