Spring 2020
Accurate assessment of how animals distribute themselves across the landscape is an essential component of ecological research. Ecologists often conduct surveys to subsample a representative portion of an area of interest and extrapolate their findings to a larger region. Acoustic surveys are...

Character behaviours in computer role-playing games have a significant impact on game-play, but are often difficult for story authors to implement and modify. Many computer games use custom scripts to control the behaviours of non-player characters (NPCs). Therefore, a story author must write...

Anthropogenic disturbance is known to have negative population consequences and alter animal behaviour, and a growing body of research on the effects of anthropogenic noise is finding similar negative impacts on wildlife. Noise in natural environments can mask important acoustic signals used for...

Using Biomolecular Recognition to Selectively Self-Assemble Microscale Components onto Patterned Substrates
DownloadSpring 2015
Modern nanofabrication technology in the 21st century has continued year after year to push the boundaries of what is possible at the nanoscale. With the advent of molecular electronics, single electron devices, nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS), and other nanotechnologies, the near future...

Using biosolids as a water source in non-catalytic hydrolysis reactions for biofuel production
DownloadFall 2017
Biosolids are residues produced from the treatment of municipal sludge and are rich in organic materials. The growing volume of biosolids and concerns over microbial safety highlight the difficulties associated with biosolids disposal. Canada generates about 660,000 dry tons of biosolids...

Resource constraints, e.g. lack of time and human resources, is a major issue in software testing practice. In short, testers have limited time to test software systems. Therefore, managers are expected to spend more resources on software components that are likely to contain many defects. To...

Using clinical growth-based antimicrobial susceptibility tests as a sensitive indicator of oil sand process-affected water toxicity
DownloadFall 2024
Current approaches for petroleum extraction in northern Alberta oil sands use heat, agitation, chemicals, and water to separate useable bitumen from oil sand deposits. During this process, caustic chemicals and sequestered compounds of environmental concern become concentrated in these waters....
