Quantifying the temporal and spatial variation of atmospheric particles on Dalhousie Campus – a pilot study
(2009-04)Outdoor air pollution is a broad and complicated issue that poses a real threat to human health and the environment. Past research demonstrates a link between urban air pollution and increased rates of mortality and morbidity ... -
Quantifying Transport of Aquaculture Particulate Wastes
(2019-04-08)Scientific understanding of aquaculture interactions with the environment is limited, especially with regard to the far-field transport and possible impacts of particulate wastes. Both modelling and field studies have ... -
A Quantitative Analysis of Deglaciation as a Possible Earthquake Mechanism in Canada.
(1985-04-15)With the exception of earthquakes occurring along the Pacific coast, earthquakes in Canada cannot be explained by plate tectonic theory. Deglaciation has been proposed as a possible cause of non-tectonic Canadian ... -
QUANTITATIVE APPROACHES FOR THE ANALYSIS OF MORTALITY IN MARINE FISH POPULATIONS
(2018-02-20)Fisheries science has historically focused on recruitment variability and fishery landings as key drivers of dynamics in populations exposed to fishing. However, comprehending the persistence of these populations and ... -
QUANTITATIVE AQUATIC TOXICITY MEASURES OF PHARMACEUTICALS AND PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS (PPCPs) AND THEIR SUBLETHAL AND LETHAL EFFECTS IN AQUATIC ORGANISMS
(2020-08-28)Little is known about sublethal and lethal effects of exposures of PPCPs, individually or synergistically, on specific aquatic organisms. To understand the toxic implications of PPCPs on aquatic organisms, a literature ... -
Quantitative Determination of Carbon Dioxide Content in Organic Electrolytes by Infrared Spectroscopy
(The Electrochemical Society, 2019-07-09)CO2 has been shown to be an effective additive to improve the cycling characteristics of silicon negative electrodes for Li-ion batteries. However, a quantitative technique for measuring the CO2 content in electrolyte is ... -
Quantitative electron delocalization in solids from maximally localized Wannier functions
(American Chemical Society, 2018) -
QUANTITATIVE EVALUATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF AUTOGENIC DRAINAGE IN HEALTHY ADOLESCENTS
(2020-09-11)INTRODUCTION: Autogenic drainage (AD) is a breathing pattern comprised of 3 phases of tidal volume (Vt) breathing distinguished by low, mid, and high end-expiratory lung volumes (EELV). AD increases FVC and clears clinically ... -
Quantitative fatty acid signature analysis: A new method of estimating predator diets
(2004-05)Accurate estimates of the diets of predators are required in many areas of ecology, but for many species current methods are imprecise, limited to the last meal, and often biased. The diversity of fatty acids and their ... -
The quantitative genetics of aggression in the juvenile American lobster, Homarus americanus: Applications for aquaculture.
(Dalhousie University, 1982) -
Quantitative genetics of postponed senescence in Drosophila melanogaster.
(Dalhousie University, 1990) -
Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cellular Density with TurboSPI
(2012-08-14)Magnetic Resonance Imaging can now detect cells that are labeled with contrast agents such as superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO). Quantitative monitoring, which is desirable for evaluating cellular therapies, remains ... -
Quantitative Measurement of Compositional Inhomogeneity in NMC Cathodes by X-ray Diffraction Postprint
(IOPscience, 2023-08-14)A novel X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis technique is described for quantitatively measuring compositional inhomogeneity in Li[NixMnyCoz]O2 (NMC) cathode materials and NMC precursors. Single-phase rock salt precursors with ... -
QUANTITATIVE MODELLING OF AUTOPHAGY-RELATED PROTEIN DYNAMICS AND CLUSTERING ON PEROXISOME SURFACES
(2015)Autophagy is an important process for the degradation of large cellular substrates, such as organelles. Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles ranging in size from 0.1-0.8 μm. There can be hundreds of peroxisomes in a ... -
A QUANTITATIVE RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR DUST AND HYBRID MIXTURE EXPLOSIONS
(2012-07-17)Dust and hybrid mixture explosions continue to occur in industrial processes that handle fine powders and flammable gases. Considerable research is therefore conducted throughout the world with the objective of both ...
