Assessing Alternative Options for Energy Cost Reduction in Greenhouse Industry
(2014-01-10)Nova Scotia has over 100 commercial greenhouses covering an area of 186,245 square meters. Heating costs have become the largest energy expenditure in greenhouses mainly due to increasing fuel prices and the use of imported ... -
Assessing and Improving the Reliability of Models of Molecular Evolution
(2021-12-17)The site models of codon substitution used to detect positive selection at amino acid sites first use a pre-screening likelihood ratio (LR) test for positive selection at the level of the protein. Due to statistical ... -
Assessing and Predicting Distribution Shifts of Canopy-Forming Marine Macrophytes in the Northwest Atlantic with Remote Sensing and Species Distribution Models
(2017-12-12)This thesis quantified the distribution of several ecologically and commercially important canopy-forming marine macrophytes in the Northwest Atlantic using species distribution models (SDM) and satellite remote sensing. ... -
Assessing Aquatic Ecosystem Health Benefits Arising from Activities Associated with Community-Based Monitoring
(2015)In Canada, government funding cutbacks have decreased the capacity for government- sponsored water quality monitoring. In response, many community-based water monitoring (CBWM) organizations have been established that have ... -
Assessing Changing Baleen Whale Distributions and Incidents Relative to Vessel Activity
(2023-08-28)Baleen whales in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean (NWA) are increasingly affected by human pressures related to vessel activity, fisheries entanglement, and climate change. Vessel strikes and entanglement in fishing gear, in ... -
Assessing climate-impact risk to Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus melodus) breeding sites in Nova Scotia, Canada
(2022-12-16)The Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus melodus) is a shorebird assessed as 'Endangered' by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada. They nest in coastal habitats and are vulnerable to climate change ... -
Assessing Depression Severity From Speech: The Role of Clinical Intuition and Artificial Intelligence
(2023-07-20)Automated speech analysis methods are used to estimate depression severity. However, it is unclear how these compare to the intuition of expert clinicians using the same information from speech. We distributed 1-minute ... -
Assessing Driven Steel Pile Capacity on Rock Using Empirical Approaches
(2012-08-28)Methods of determining pile toe capacity for both small displacement driven steel piles and drilled sockets were collected. Working in conjunction with a local consulting firm, records of previous pile driving sites were ... -
Assessing Durability of Cement Kiln Dust Manufactured Aggregates
