Gilmet, Teryn Evelyn Renee McFarlane
Broiler breeders require feed restriction to maintain high production rates of hatching eggs. However, feed restriction, conventionally managed during the rearing period through skip-a-day feeding, creates welfare concerns as broiler breeders exhibit behaviours indicative of hunger and...

Beyond the host plant: Multi‐scale habitat models for a northern peripheral population of the butterfly, Apodemia mormo (Lepidoptera: Riodinidae)
DownloadSpring 2013
The Mormon metalmark (Apodemia mormo) butterfly is widely distributed throughout western North America. It is listed as threatened, however, in Saskatchewan, Canada because of a small population size within a restricted habitat. To most effectively manage for this species, land managers and...

The conservation of species requires preservation of natural habitats. Where the integrity of natural habitats has been upset, species go extinct. All natural habitats are continuing to decline, both inside and outside of reserves. Habitat change is partly a natural process (e.g., succession),...

NFRF-T LOI awarded in 2020: The scope of the project is novel in its combined concern with the well-being of Indigenous Peoples and the conservation of biodiversity; it is also unique in its intention to build capacity within Indigenous communities to document and mobilize knowledge about...

Black-tailed prairie dog declines in northwestern Mexico: species-habitat relationships in a changing landscape
DownloadFall 2009
One of the three largest systems of black-tailed prairie dog (BTPD) colonies is located in northwestern Chihuahua, Mexico. During the last two decades, the area occupied by these colonies has been highly reduced and fragmented. Previous studies suggested that agriculture, poisoning, cattle...

Comparison of Sleep State Classification Performance Using Random Forests, Hidden Markov Models, and Non-homogeneous Hidden Markov Models
DownloadFall 2020
In this work, the CF00N polysomnograph data of 75 patients, with ranging severeties of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), is presented and analyzed in terms of sleep state classification. The pre-processing and cleaning of each polysomnograph recording were performed in R (R Core Team, 2019) using...

Concrete deep beams with small shear span-to-depth (a/d) ratios are common elements in structures. However, there are few experimental results on the behaviour of FRP reinforced concrete deep beams and no specific modelling techniques exist in design codes for such members. The objectives of this...
