Adapting drinking water treatment strategies to changing source water quality under the stress of climate impacts
(2020-08-20)Over the last few decades, noticeable chemical and microbiological changes in water quality have been observed in Atlantic Canada lakes as a result of recovery from acidification and climatic drivers. This has multiple ... -
ADAPTING TO SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ARCHITECTURE: AN INTEGRATED COMMUNITY HUB FOR MOSHUPA VILLAGE, BOTSWANA
(2011-08-16)The thesis explores the role of Architecture in enhancing a sustainable rural livelihood in Botswana. Moshupa village is analyzed and assessed to create an alternative, self-sustainable model for rural development that can ... -
Adapting to the Island: the Architectural Reuse of a once active British Naval Facility for Bermuda
(2011-04-08)This thesis explores the possibilities of adaptively reusing an existing site to provide new services and work spaces for the local artistic community within a once heavily used Brit- ish naval ship building and repair ... -
Adapting Tristram Shandy
(2011-09-07)Laurence Sterne’s The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman, has been noted as an unconventional eighteenth-century novel and it has long been considered unadaptable and unfilmable. In the last decade, however, ... -
Adaptive and neutral genetic variation in spring- and fall-spawning herring (Clupea harengus L.) in the Northwest Atlantic
(2020-09-11)Understanding the factors influencing the spatial distribution of intraspecific diversity is both a fundamental goal in evolutionary biology and necessary for the design of robust management strategies for harvested species. ... -
Adaptive and non-adaptive plasticity and fine-scale genetic variation in life-history reaction norms in Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
(2012-12-11)The persistence of a species in the face of environmental change is a function of the extent to which populations respond differently to changes in their environment and the spatial correspondence between the scale of ... -
Adaptive capacity of marine other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) in an era of global climate change: a case study analysis of Canada and the Scotian Shelf
(2023-12)Marine protected areas (MPAs) are often designed and managed with limited consideration of climate change and its impacts, potentially undermining their long-term efficacy. Other effective area-based conservation measures ... -
Adaptive Clinical Pathway Using Semantic Web
(2012-07-31)Internship report - Winter 2005 It is commonly believed that the quality of healthcare can be improved by taking advantage of the latest medical knowledge and best practices. This is especially true when designing clinical ... -
Adaptive Function Value Warping for Surrogate Model Assisted Evolutionary Optimization
(2021-08-24)Invariance to strictly monotonic transformations of the objective function is an important feature in the design of black-box optimization algorithms. For this reason, ordinal surrogates have been established as an attractive ... -
