Dynamic stability of axially loaded beams on elastic foundations
(2019)
Beams on elastic foundations have received great attention of researchers for its
importance in civil engineering. The present work can be applied, for example,
to the study of dynamically loaded finite columns which are ...
Using trail camera imagery to develop a habitat suitability index (HSI) For moose (Alces alces) In the English River Forest, ON
(2019)
Moose are a valuable economic and ecological resource in Ontario. Understanding their spatial distribution throughout the forest is essential for managing populations and preserving habitat. One method of identifying the ...
Using planet labs imagery to track caribou: a pilot study
(2019)
Using satellite imagery from an earth imaging company called Planet Labs, this
study aimed to see whether Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) could be
tracked through a disturbance path left by migrating herds. ...
A longitudinal evaluation of an on-reserve methadone maintenance therapy program
(2019)
Canada’s First Nations population experiences elevated rates of opioid use and negative opioid-related
consequences. These rates stem from the long history of colonization that First Nations
populations have faced, which ...
Re(righting) mathematics education: changing students' attitudes towards mathematics through Indigenous knowledge and worldview
(2019)
This study explored the impacts of incorporating decolonizing, Indigenous focused lessons and pedagogies in a grade 9 (Ontario) locally developed (LD) classroom on students’ attitudes towards mathematics. A reform-based ...
The economic value of recovering the town of Oakville's urban forest after the impacts of the emerald ash borer
(2019)
The Town of Oakville is responsible for maintaining some 2,016,500 city trees planted within boulevards on the city’s streets (UFORE 2016). Prior to the emerald ash borer, ash trees represented the top 5 most trees planted ...
Exploring the potential to minimize forest road cost in Ontario with LiDAR and RoadENG
(2019)
The objective of this study was to determine if light detection and ranging (LiDAR) and RoadENG could produce a more cost-effective road design than a field-based road design. A Triangulated irregular network (TIN) was ...
North American pinewood nematode disease in China
(2019)
The pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) is an important alien
invasive species in China. This pinewood nematode poses a serious threat to Chinese
forests. It does have an important impact on forestry, including ...
Classification of red pine stands using remote sensing techniques
(2019)
Red pine is a historically important species for forestry in the boreal forest. Its large diameter and straight and knot free form has made it ideal for many purposes, including construction. With the new sudden turn towards ...
Developing an experimental setup for Thunder Bay waste pollution control plant (WPCP) to evaluate UV lamp performance
(2019)
An automated experimental setup was developed to measure the spectral irradiance of new low pressure (LP) ultraviolet lamp (UV). The experimental analysis was performed by the measurement of the UV intensity along the ...
