Stout, Madeleine, Collins, Damian, Evans, Josh
Weather is an elementary and fundamental characteristic of place. In any given place we encounter the materiality of weather, local meanings attached to weather, and practices adopted in response to living with weather. Winter cities are places defined by their weather—long, cold winters that can...

Housing First (HF) is an increasingly widespread and influential response to chronic homelessness. Programs using a HF approach typically rely on market apartments to house homeless clients as rapidly as possible. This reliance means HF programs are dependent on the availability and affordability...

This article investigates how Housing First (HF) is practiced in Alberta, Canada, with a focus on the concept of graduation. The dominant HF model, Pathways, holds that client support should be time-unlimited. However, HF is highly mobile and increasingly characterized by ambiguity and drift away...

Wind-forced depth-dependent currents over the eastern Beaufort Sea continental slope: Implications for Pacific water transport
Download2018-01-01
Dmitrenko, Igor A., Kirillov, Sergei A., Myers, Paul G., Forest, Alexandre, Tremblay, Bruno, Lukovich, Jennifer V., Gratton, Yves, Rysgaard, Soren, Barber, David G.
Pacific water contributes significantly to the Arctic Ocean freshwater budget. Recent increases in Arctic freshwater flux, also affected by the Pacific-derived Arctic water, impact the Atlantic overturning circulation with implications for global climate. The interannual variability of the...

Wildfire risk and response in Jasper National Park, Alberta: Application of an adaptation readiness framework
Download2021-06-23
Halabut, Rechelle, Birchall, S. Jeff
Environmental change associated with warmer temperatures is creating unprecedented conditions in natural regions and ecosystems. In Jasper National Park, Alberta, climate change, historical fire management practices, and the mountain pine beetle infestation are combining to increase the risk of a...

Severson, Meryn, Collins, Damian
This chapter focuses on wellbeing research in health geography and the ways in which health geographers have made important contributions to understanding the socio-spatial and place-based dimensions of wellbeing. We seek to answer two key questions: What is wellbeing? And why is it important? To...

Rahman, Md Mustafizur, Canter, Christina E., Kumar, Amit
A life cycle assessment (LCA) is an extremely useful tool to assess the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with all the stages of a crude oil’s life from well-to-wheel (WTW). All of the WTW lifecycle stages of crude oil consume energy and produce significant amounts of GHG emissions. The...

Donnelly, Chris, Myers, Paul G.
Objectively analyzed surface hydrographic fields and NCEP–NCAR reanalysis fluxes are used to estimate water mass transformation and formation rates in the Labrador Sea, focusing on Labrador Sea Water (LSW). The authors estimate a mean long-term transformation of between 2.1 ± 0.2 and 3.9 ± 0.3 Sv...

Hughes, Kenneth G., Klymak, Jody M., Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G.
Strong spatial differences in diapycnal mixing across the Canadian Arctic Archipelago are diagnosed in a 1/128 basin-scale model. Changes in mass flux between water flowing into or out of several regions are analyzed using a volume-integrated advection–diffusion equation, and focus is given to...
