Stage structure must inform recovery in fish populations: a case for lake sturgeon in the Namakan River, Ontario
(2018)Lake sturgeon are a large bodied, slow maturing, intermittently reproducing acipenserid native to central North America. The species is a conservation concern range-wide because of population declines during the 19th and ... -
Stakeholder perspectives on climate change and adaptation in expedition cruise tourism in Nunavut
(2011)Climate change and tourism change are global phenomena (Keskitalo, 2008; Page, 2003). As climate change becomes more pronounced and the tourism industry continues to be susceptible to changes in climate (Coombes, Jones, ... -
Stakeholders' experiences of an interpretation accreditation system : a case study in Banff National Park, Canada / by Rosanna L. Maunder.
(2007)Previous research suggests that guided interpretation in nature-based settings has the potential to develop positive attitudes towards conservation and can foster appropriate visitor behavior in parks and protected areas. ... -
Stand age structures of single and mixed-species of fire-origin boreal stands in central Canada
(2006)Keywords : biodiversity, bimodal, boreal forest, cover type, developmental stage, old-growth, reverse-J, stand age structure, time since fire, wildlife habital, [disturbances, spruce budworm, wind, harvesting, logging]. -
Stand density management implications on the woody quality of yellow birch (Betula alleghaniensis Britton) in the Sault Ste. Marie MNR District of Ontario
(2014)Creating quality tolerant hardwood stands through intensive silviculture and mapping their properties is considered a means for optimizing the value chain in Northeastern Ontario. A comprehensive literature review was ... -
Stand structural dynamics of boreal conifer, mixedwood, and broadleaf fire- and clearcut logging-origin stands in central Canada
(2006)Stand structure has been linked to forest regeneration, nutrient cycling, wildlife habitat, biodiversity, and climate regulation. A review and synthesis of literature indicated that boreal forest stand structure is ... -
Stand structure differences resulting from post-harvest silviculture in boreal mixedwoods
(2007)Under the Ontario Forest Accord, several parcels of land have recently been designated as protected areas reducing the area available for forest management. As a result, forestry companies will likely have to intensify ... -
State and the reproduction of capital : urban renewal in Thunder Bay, 1965-1973
(1985)The purpose of this inquiry is to examine the relationship of the state to the reproduction of capital. The thesis will consider the question of the relationship of the state to capital at the theoretical and empirical ... -
State of Northwestern Ontario secondary school programming for students affected by alcoholics
(2005)The purpose of this study was to examine programming available in Northwestern Ontario (NWO) secondary schools to support students who are affected by someone else’s drinking. Data on programming available in NWO secondary ... -
State variable harmonic balance analysis of nonlinear circuits based on waves
(2013-02-12)Circuit simulation involving nonlinear elements can be a challenging task. From these challenges rises a demand for finding better and more efficient ways of solving such problems. This work provides a novel approach for ... -
Static dielectric properties of an ensemble of restricted one-dimensional oscillators
(1984)Deviations from constancy of the Clausius-Mossotti function, C[subscript M], with changes in density and temperature are considered on the basis of a one-dimensional oscillator model of the atom in which the valence ... -
Status of turtle populations in Point Pelee National Park
(2003)Loss of biodiversity has been an irrepressible consequence of growing human populations and resource use. Some groups, such as turtles, are especially vulnerable because of their natural history. Turtles are threatened ... -
Steady state analysis of oscillators
(2010)A common method used for steady-state analysis of oscillators is called Harmonic Balance. Harmonic balance finds the steady-state solution directly in frequency-domain. However, Harmonic Balance is very sensitive to the ... -
Stem analysis : sampling techniques and data processing
(1983)Stem analysis is a common forest mensurational technique used to gain individual tree information for various growth attributes. Interest in stem analysis has been renewed with the availability of computer technology, and ... -
Stem wood structure of four Ghanaian Khaya species
(1997)Four closely related Ghanaian Khaya woods were studied for differences in anatomical, chemical and physical properties to enable clear identification o f the species. The species were Khaya cmthotheca (Ka), Khaya ivorensis ... -
Stephen Crane's impressionism : a step back
(1995)This thesis focuses primarily on Impressionism in three of Stephen Crane's works: Maggie: A Girl of the Streets. The Red Badge of Courage and "The Monster." Impressionism is the most appropriate hypothesis to describe ... -
The stereochemical impact of chiral ionic liquids on [2+2] photochemical cycloadditions and aldol reactions
(2020)Eight chiral ionic liquids have been prepared for use as solvents to test whether they can induce enantioselectivity in both photochemical [2+2] cycloadditions and aldol reactions using a variety of starting materials. ... -
Stigma associated with seeking help for psychological distress: how public and self-stigma, help-seeking attitudes and intent, self-compassion, and empathy relate
College and university students experience high levels of psychological distress and would likely benefit from accessing mental health services. However, the stigma associated with seeking help as well as the stigma ... -
Stigma resistance versus self-stigma in university students with mental health problems
(2023)Self-stigma is the process by which an individual is aware of, agrees with, and internalizes demeaning societal stereotypes and prejudices. Stigma resistance is when an individual may be aware of societal stigma, yet ... -
