Gallium nitride, indium nitride, and heterostructure development using the MEAglow growth system
(2014-12-11)
This thesis presents an in depth study of semiconductor development using a new process termed Migration Enhanced Afterglow (MEAglow). The MEAglow growth reactor is housed in the Lakehead University Semiconductor Research ...
Tracking habitat use by boreal toads in disturbed forest on the boreal plain in Alberta
(2014-12-05)
Radio-telemetry is an effective way of collecting detailed information on the behaviour of a great many species. However, the presence of the radio-transmitter may influence the behaviour of the subject, an effect for which ...
Applications of golay complementary sequences in mc-cdma and compressed sensing
(2012-11-10)
This thesis consists of two separate topics involved with Golay complementary sequences. In the first part, we present results of an experimental investigation where the distribution of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) ...
Nonlinear transient analysis based on wave digital filters
(2014-01-22)
Simulation of large circuit networks is a CPU-time and memory consuming task. Computer clusters and multi-core processors have become common but algorithms must be parallelizable to fully take advantage of these architectures. ...
Wireless sensor network scheduling schemes
(2012-11-10)
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) consists of small sensing devices with constrained power and resources. It is widely used for environment monitoring. WSN usually works in hostile environments and performs critical tasks, for ...
The sharing of traditional aboriginal knowledge of pipe carriers from Winnipeg, Manitoba and the implications for the health of Aboriginal Peoples living in urban centers
(2013-02-01)
Aboriginal peoples are part of the history and culture of Canada. The history is a tragedy as the Europeans exerted control of the land, resources and Aboriginal peoples themselves. The years of control, oppression and ...
Does this count for marks? : a mixed methods analysis of teacher opinion of counting a large-scale assessment toward class grades

The objective of this research was to gain insights on teacher opinions related to the practice of counting a portion of a large-scale educational assessment (LSA) for students' grades. [The author] anaylized the responses ...
Polar bears: the conservation of an arctic icon in a warming climate
(2014-12-16)
Subpopulation growth rates and the probability of decline at current harvest levels were determined for 13 subpopulations of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) that are within or shared with Canada based on the most recent ...
Electrochemical methods and membrane bioreactor approach for wastewater treatment and water quality assessment
(2014-01-22)
Severe water scarcity, high health standards, and strict disposal limits have necessitated the development of novel and robust strategies for wastewater remediation and water quality analysis at lower cost with reduced ...
