Investigating productivity and foliar nutrient status in second growth white spruce (Picea glauca) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides)
(2012-11-10)
This thesis synthesizes two related papers investigating competitive interactions of second growth white spruce (Picea glauca [Moench] Voss) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) at the Fallingsnow Ecosystem ...
Integrated solar electrokinetic remediation of soil contaminated with copper
(2012-11-10)
Electrokinetic remediation is an emerging in-situ technology for cleaning contaminated soil. The contaminants are mobilized by passing a low-level direct current between a row of positively charged electrodes (anode) and ...
The role of personality in predicting unsafe driver behaviour in young and older adults
(2012-11-10)
Traffic-related collisions represent a considerable social and economic burden on our society. In Canada, drivers aged 16 to 19 years and 70 years or older are consistently overrepresented in victim statistics. Identified ...
A role and attribute based encryption approach to privacy and security in cloud based health services
(2012-11-10)
Cloud computing is a rapidly emerging computing paradigm which replaces static and expensive data centers, network and software infrastructure with dynamically scalable “cloud based” services offered by third party providers ...
Tunable high-power fiber laser and its application to produce Brillouin fiber lasers
(2012-11-10)
A tunable continuous wave single-longitudinal-mode fiber laser is proposed and
developed. A saturable absorber, as well as, an all-fiber Fabry-Perot filter was used in the
laser cavity to reduce mode-hopping. The laser ...
Peak power analysis of MC-CDMA employing Golay complementary sequences
(2012-11-10)
l\!Iulticarrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) combines
both orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and code
division multiple access (CD lVIA) techniques. It inherits the advantages
of these two ...
Preservice teacher beliefs about teaching language arts and literacy
(2012-11-10)
Preservice Teacher Beliefs about Teaching Language and Literacy describes the findings of a qualitative study conducted with a Junior/Intermediate language arts methods course in a Faculty of Education at a University in ...
Recreation specialization, avalanche training, and avalanche safety practices of backcountry skiers in the Canadian Mountain National Park
(2012-11-10)
Knowledge of demographics, avalanche training, and avalanche safety practices of backcountry skiers in the mountain national parks of Canada is of great importance to Parks Canada, the Canadian Avalanche Association, ...
The Impacts of forest management practices on mercury contamination in small stream biota
(2012-11-10)
Mercury is a contaminant of global concern as it is present in all biota and ecosystems around the world. Small streams are influenced by the terrestrial systems that feed them. I examined the presence of mercury in small ...
Modeling of a high frequency field effect transitor on indium gallium nitride: the metal oxide semiconductor capacitor 1=channel model
(2012-11-10)
Quantum devices are an important class of modern heterostructure devices in which quantum effects are exploited directly. A Gallium Nitride high frequency field effect transistor (FET), the subject of this work, exploits ...
