(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)We consider two algorithmic processes used to sample uniformly from a wide array of combinatorial classes. First, the recursive method which uses the recur- sive decomposition of a class in addition to tables of large ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)This research created spatially resolved exposure simulations for 4457 galaxies in the eXtreme Deep Field for CASTOR and WFIRST and Euclid bandwidths. This next generation of space based observatories will improve on Hubble ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)The Cogmagun River salt marsh was a Ducks Unlimited impoundment that CB Wetlands and Environmental Specialists restored by reintroducing tidal flow in 2009 by removing part of the dyke embankment. Since the initial restorative ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2018)The lack of efficiency of current methods for bacterial screening has prompted an increasing interest in developing a cost-effective, rapid and sensitive alternative for applications in all sectors of society. This project ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)The purpose of this project is to use the concept of Etuaptmumk Two-Eyed Seeing to discuss the history and impacts legacy gold mine tailings have on the environment. This was done through a plant bioaccumulation study, the ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)The full potential of biological control agents, such as the two-spotted lady beetle, Adalia bipunctata L., against insect pests greatly depends on the ability of the control agent to successfully mature to adulthood. ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)The Revenue Au occurrence, located in Dawson Range, Yukon, Canada is a complex magmatic-hydrothermal system comprised of at least three styles of mineralization with distinct mineral assemblages and textures, though the ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)The purpose of this thesis was to determine whether Canadian news media relied on racist tropes and stereotypes of black people in their portrayal of black men who had died as the result of police violence. Additionally, ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Rapid advances in computing power have given computational analysis and simulation a prominent role in modern scientific exploration. Differential equations are often used to model complex scientific phenomena. In practice, ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Within the northeastern Cobequid Highlands (CH), Nova Scotia, Canada recent bedrock mapping and bulk rock geochemistry have identified a potential epithermal Au system. The Warwick Mountain area shows the most potential ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Parent-offspring communication mediates feeding rates through begging by nestlings, which is energetically expensive and may alert predators to the nest’s location, but benefits the nestlings by increasing body condition. ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)This thesis is a fluid inclusion study on poorly understood cobalt-nickel-rich sulfarsenide (+Au,Ag,Bi) quartz veins hosted in the Silurian Kentville Formation metasediments, which outcrop at the Nictaux Falls Spillway, ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Jurassic- to Cretaceous-age gold mineralization at the Goldy and Irene showings in the Dawson Range, Yukon Territory occurs in intrusive igneous bodies and metasedimentary rocks of the Yukon-Tanana terrane. Petrography, ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Offspring that are a product of inbreeding often have reduced fitness, known as inbreeding depression. Though our understanding of the impacts of inbreeding depression in wild populations is in its infancy, it is thought ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Environmental stresses often disrupt and alter the growth of plants and their life cycles. This causes molecular responses to upregulate gene expression, inducing important stress responsive genes. Dispersal and continuous ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Coniferous forest uplands and wetlands are abundant in Nova Scotia. Tree growth in wetlands is known to be stunted compared to uplands. The objective of this study was to compare the growth of black spruce trees in wetlands ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Parasites can impose fitness consequences onto their hosts by reducing their reproductive success or offspring survival rates. Carnus hemapterus are external parasites that feed on the blood of European Starling (Sturnus ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Applications of Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed extracts (ANE) in a liquid formulation improves yield in some crops by increasing nutrient uptake. However, the repeated applications of liquid formulations needed to induce these ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)The majority of vertebrates reproduce sexually, but a small percentage can reproduce clonally (asexual reproduction). The Common killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) and Banded killifish (Fundulus diaphanus) are found along ...
