This study takes place in an endangered peatland within the city of Thunder Bay Ontario. The study area, William Bog, is one of a few remaining peatlands in the Thunder Bay district which have developed on abandoned Minong ...

Dielectric absorption of aromatic and aliphatic molecules containing the rotatable substituent group and of some analogous rigid molecules in $olutions of polar solutes dispersed in an atactic polystyrene matrix are ...

The work described in this thesis is part of an ongoing effort in these laboratories to determine in more detail how a variety of factors, particularly the nature of added ligands, affects the type of products and the ...

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 ...

Newer techniques of phosphole synthesis, particularly those which lead to simple phospholes substituted with active functional groups, are briefly surveyed. A detailed account of chemical, physico-chemical, spectroscopic ...

The electrical conductivity of n-type InSb in the temperature range 77K - 300K has been calculated by using the Boltzmann equation with a relaxation time ansatz. The tv/o dominant scattering mechanisms in this temperature ...

This thesis contains a study of higher dimensional numerical quadrature, especially two dimensional Gregory quadrature. In Chapter I, we discuss the problem of approximation and integration, the reasons why numerical ...

Dielectric absorption studies of a variety of polar solutes containing rotatable groups and of some analogous rigid molecules dispersed in atactic polystyrene have been carried out. Preparation of the solutions as solid ...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of two different strength training methods, (concentric and eccentric) on strength, retention and bilateral transfer. Subjects were 22 male volunteers, aged 16 to 17. ...
