Numerical modelling of the Arctic and North Atlantic exchanges with NEMO: Focus on freshwater and dynamics
DownloadFall 2018
The Arctic is currently undergoing significant changes due to increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gases causing atmospheric warming. The impact of this warming is clearly visible in the Arctic: reduced sea-ice cover, enhanced land-ice melting, increased frequency of extreme weather, etc....

Fall 2023
As internal tides propagate in the ocean, they carry and dissipate energy over hundreds and even thousands of kilometers. We perform fully nonlinear simulations to examine the evolution of horizontally propagating, vertical mode-1 internal tides in non-uniformly stratified fluids, as it depends...

Ichnology concerns the study of interactions between organisms and both soft and hard substrates. Actualistic observation of a modern day river channel molluscan assemblage including unionid and sphaeriid bivalves and gastropods within the Saint John River, Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada...

Offsetting approved harmful anthropogenic impacts in the 21st century – Insights into global offsetting practices, habitat banking as an alternative offsetting mechanism and application of habitat enhancement in northern boreal lake systems
DownloadFall 2022
Land-use change via human development is a major driver of biodiversity and habitat area loss and ecosystem function impairment. To reduce these impacts, billions of dollars are spent on environmental offsets, aimed to compensate for authorized negative impacts. Studies evaluating offset project...

Ridenour, Natasha A., Hu, Xianmin, Sydor, Kevin, Myers, Paul G., Barber, David G.
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...

Simulated impacts of relative climate change and river discharge regulation on sea ice and oceanographic conditions in the Hudson Bay Complex
Download2021-01-01
Lukovich, Jennifer V., Jafarikhasragh, Shabnam, Myers, Paul G., Ridenour, Natasha A., de la Guardia, Laura Castro, Hu, Xianmin, Grivault, Nathan, Marson, Juliana, Pennelly, Clark, Stroeve, Julienne C., Sydor, Kevin, Wong, Karen, Stadnyk, T. A., Barber, D. G.
In this analysis, we examine relative contributions from climate change and river discharge regulation to changes in marine conditions in the Hudson Bay Complex using a subset of five atmospheric forcing scenarios from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), river discharge...

Fall 2013
This thesis presents the numerical simulations related to freshwater processes within the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA) using a coupled ocean and sea ice pan-Arctic model based on NEMO v3.1. In this study, two major routes for the export of Pacific water to the North Atlantic, via either Fram...

The role of North Atlantic Current water in exchanges across the Greenland-Scotland Ridge from the Nordic Seas
DownloadSpring 2011
The circulation and gradual transformation in properties of oceanic water masses is a matter of great interest for short-term weather and biological forecasting, as well as long-term climate change. It is usually agreed that the Nordic Seas between Greenland and Norway are key to these...
