Metapopulation viability analyses of woodland caribou in the Lake Superior range
(2022)Woodland caribou populations in the Lake Superior range have deteriorated. The caribou’s decline follows industry growth since the 1900s. Islands like those in Slate Islands Provincial Park, Michipicoten Island and Caribou ... -
Method for demonstrating aesthetic preferences within artistic pictures
(1985)Berlyne (I97I, pp. 28-29) acknowledged that "Reactions to artificially simple sights and sounds are admittedly a long way from appreciation of art." However, a concern regarding the use of art is an absence of control ... -
Method optimization and gene expression analysis for interferon Kappa mRNA in HPV-associated cervical disease / by Correne A. Decarlo.
(2008)Interferons (IFNs) are a common biological treatment option for many cancers as well as for human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated diseases, but current IFN treatments have not been optimized as disease progression subsists ... -
Methods for finding wolf (Canis lupus) kill sites using location clusters: a study in Grand Portage Indian Reservation, Minnesota
(2020)Wolves have profound effects on the ecosystems around them. As large carnivores, they can significantly manipulate ecosystems by controlling potentially overabundant ungulate populations. This study attempts to find predation ... -
Metrization and sigma bases
(1969)In this thesis, we use the concept of sigma base to study the metrizability of various topological spaces. Chapter 1 is devoted to the definition of basic terms, a proof of Urysohn's Metrization Theorem, and an introduction ... -
Microbial methylation of mercury in the North Harbour of Lake Superior
(2019)Mercury is a known contaminant in the North Harbour of Lake Superior due to the decommissioned “Thunder Bay Fine Papers” pulp and paper mill. The cause for concern for organisms in the lake and for humans occurs when ... -
Microbial production of value-added products from wood hemicellulose prehydrolysate
(2020)Hemicellulose, the second most abundant polymer in nature, has the great potential to be used for the production of biochemicals under the concept of biorefining. As hemicellulose is watersoluble, it can also be easily ... -
Microbial toxicity assessment and biodegradation of triclopyr using Arthrobacter globiformis and Pseudomonas pictorum
(1990)Triclopyr (3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinyloxyacetic acid) was investigated for biodegradation using Arthrobacter and Pseudomonas sp. bacteria. No evidence of the proposed major metabolite, 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol was found ... -
Microscopic modeling of high-field charge transport in amorphous selenium
(2014-01-22)Avalanche multiplication of charge carriers as a result of successive impact ionization has led to the development of solid state avalanche photo-detectors. Crystalline based avalanche photodiodes have found a variety of ... -
A Microstructural study of Musselwhite Mine and Hammond Reef shear-zone-hosted gold deposits
(2011)Musselwhite Mine and Hammond Reef are shear-zone-hosted gold deposits located in Northwestern Ontario, in the Western Superior Province of the Canadian Shield. A detailed microscopic investigation of three gold-hosting ... -
Microwave interferometer for measuring dielectric properties of low-loss solids
(1974)An X-band microwave bridge-interferometer is constructed for measuring the permittivity of solids. Using simple theory, the system is first tested with several materials of known permittivity (e.g. ertalon, plexiglas ... -
Middle holocene archaeology and paleoenvironments of the Thunder Bay region, Lake Superior basin
(2012-11-10)This thesis describes the analysis of a deeply buried peat deposit discovered in a cutbank along the Kaministiquia River near Thunder Bay, Ontario. This exposure yielded a large sample of well-preserved plant macrofossils ... -
