Effects of the nitrogen deposition on the forest ecosystems: an overview
(2023)Human activities exacerbate the production and emission of reactive nitrogen and lead to the increase and globalization of nitrogen deposition. At present, the interference of human activities in the global nitrogen cycle ... -
The effects of the Red 003 Fire on woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) habitat in the Sydney Range
Disturbances, including forest fires, are considered a primary driver of population decline in boreal woodland caribou populations across Canada. The Sydney Range in northwestern Ontario has been assessed as not self-sustaining ... -
The effects of therapeutic patellar taping techniques on lower extremity kinematics during running in individuals with and without patellofemoral pain syndrome
(2016)The effectiveness of patellar taping techniques for Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS), including McConnell’s Medial Glide and Mechanical Correction Technique with Tension in the Base, remains controversial, with no ... -
The Effects of Therapeutic Tape on Pain, Range of Motion, Power, Balance and Strength in Physically Active Individuals with Patellar Tendinopathy
(2015)Patellar tendinopathy is a common injury found among active populations. Typically, tendon pain and tenderness are the most prevalent symptoms associated with patellar tendinopathy and can range from mild to severe. This ... -
Effects of timber management practices on the use of aquatic feeding areas by moose (Alces alces) in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence and boreal transition forests of Central Ontario
(2003)During spring and summer in Ontario, moose are commonly observed at sites known as moose aquatic feeding areas. Feeding on aquatic vegetation is thought to be an important source of sodium for moose at this time of year. ... -
Effects of two training methods on flexibility
(1977)The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two different flexibility training methods, 3S (Scientific Stretching for Sport) and SS (Slow Active Stretching). Warmup effects, differential joint responses, and ... -
Effects of ultra violet and visible light on bacterial survival / by Natasha Vermeulen.
(2006)The optical dose in mJ/cm[superscript]2 for causing mortality of Escherichia coli, using wavelengths between 230-375 nm in the UV and 400-532 nm in the mid-visible spectral regions, has been determined in this study. ... -
Effects of unilateral resistance training on sexagenarians : an examination of functional, histochemical, biochemical, and morphological changes
(1997)The purpose o f this study was to investigate functional, histochemical, biochemical and morphological properties associated with resistance training in the elderly. Ten (8 females, 2 males), moderately active sexagenarians ... -
Effects of variable rate aerial application of Vision on moose (Alces alces) winter browsing and hardwood vegetation
(1993)Experimental aerial treatment of 7 mixedwood areas in late summer for conifer release with Vision® at 0.80, 1.06, and 1.60 kg a.e./ha, decreased living hardwood stem densities after ten months by 42, 61 and 42% ... -
Effects of various additives on regulated emissions of modern diesel engines
(2017)Increasingly strict emissions regulations along with man-made global warming has peaked interest in clean burning diesel engines. Renewable biofuels such as biodiesel are being investigated to reduce carbon monoxide (CO), ... -
Effects of various leg positions at the catch on the force of the rowing stroke
(1978)The purpose of this thesis was to test in isolation various leg and body movements in the rowing action and to relate them to forces created on the oar handle. The subjects were four senior oarsmen. The independent ... -
Effects of visual perspective, ball position and distance on the accuracy of a putted ball in golf
(1991)The influence on putting accuracy due to the position of the eyes relative to the ball, the position of the ball relative to the stance and the distance of the putt was determined. Putts were performed by thirty ... -
Effects of water availability, longer photoperiod, and elevated [CO2] on the potential of the northward migration in trembling aspen (populus tremuloides michx.)
(2019)Based on climate envelope models, boreal tree species may migrate to higher latitudes (approximately 10˚N toward the north) in response to rapid climate changes by the end of this century. Multiple factors will likely ... -
Effects of water depth increases on the production and growth of wild rice, Zinzania aquatica L.
(1987)Wild rice, grown in plastic buckets suspended from specially designed rafts, was subjected to increases in water depth during the submerged-leaf, first floating-leaf, second floating-leaf, and the first aerial-leaf ... -
Effects of water-based exercise on activities of daily living in Parkinson's disease patients
(2006)Physical exercise plays an important role in reducing the physical and psychological symptoms of those who suffer from Parkinson’s Disease (PD). One form of exercise, water exercise, is a relatively untested means in ... -
Effects of wind induced soil moisture stress on the germination and early growth of Pinus banksiana Lamb. on three soil texture types
(1988)A controlled environment wind tunnel was used to produce three wind speeds and hence three soil drying rates in order to study the effects of soil moisture stress on seeds and germinants of Pinus banksiana Lamb, planted ... -
Efficacy and optimization of molecular techniques for sexing skeletonized human remains
(2003)Forensic anthropologists and bioarchaeologists are often confronted with the problem of sex determination in poorly preserved, skeletonized, adult, human remains. This thesis tests the ability o f newly developed DNA ... -
