An Assessment of the Socio-economic and Marine Environmental Impacts Associated with the St. Kitts and Nevis Geothermal Energy Project [Graduate Project].
(2015-03-03)Caribbean islands, St. Kitts and Nevis inclusive, are suffering from high fuel cost to produce electricity. The cost of electricity has been stifling economic development and standard of living. Fortunately St. Kitts and ... -
Assessment of Water Usage and Conservation Concerns on Carleton Campus, Dalhousie University
(2013-04)The primary objective of this research project was to determine the amount of water being wasted though dripping faucets, due to mechanical and behavioural error, on the Carleton Campus at Dalhousie University. In addition, ... -
Assimilating long-term hydrographic information into an eddy-permitting model of the North Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, Washington, DC, 2006-09)No abstract available. -
Association between access to neighbourhood greenness and physical activity in Nova Scotia youth
(2015-04)Physical activity is an important factor of child growth and is expected to reduce the prevalence of obesity. However, despite these benefits many youth in Nova Scotia do not meet the recommended physical activity ... -
Asymmetric Dipyrrin and F-BODIPYs Conjugated to Terminal Alkynes and Alkenes
(American Chemical Society, 2017) -
Asymmetric oxidation of 2-(arylsulfenyl)pyrroles
(2008-07)The asymmetric oxidation of prochiral 2-(arylsulfenyl)pyrroles has been investigated. A marked electronic effect within the substrate significantly influenced the degree of enantioselectivity obtained, with very high enantio ... -
An asymptotic analysis of the mean first passage time for narrow escape problems. I. Two-dimensional domains
(2010)No abstract available. -
Asymptotic behavior of cosmological models in scalar-tensor theories of gravity
(1999-01)No abstract available. -
Asymptotic Pairwise Dispersion Corrections Can Describe Layered Materials Accurately
(American Chemical Society, 2020-03-02) -
Automated SDS depletion for mass spectrometry of intact membrane proteins through transmembrane electrophoresis
(ACS Publications, 2016-08)Membrane proteins are underrepresented in proteome analysis platforms because of their hydrophobic character, contributing to decreased solubility. Sodium dodecyl sulfate is a favored denaturant in proteomic workflows, ... -
Automated, low-temperature dielectric relaxation apparatus for measurement of air-sensitive, corrosive, hygroscopic, powdered samples
(1999-07)An automated apparatus for dielectric determinations on solid samples was designed to allow cryogenic measurements on air-sensitive, corrosive, hygroscopic, powdered samples, without determination of sample thickness, ... -
Automated, small sample-size adiabatic calorimeter.
(1987)An automated adiabatic calorimeter is described with an internal vol. of 5 cm3, operable at 30-380 K. One of the main advantages of this calorimeter over others in use is the shorter down time during sample changes, due ... -
AutoSaving: Increasing safety and efficiency of autoclaves and water distillation units at Dalhousie
(2012-04)This report explores efficiency and usage patterns of autoclaves and water distillation units on campus. Preliminary research into water distillation is provided, offering insight into users’ perspectives on efficiency ... -
The Average Amount of Solid Food Waste Produced at the Howe Hall Cafeteria and an Investigation of its Causes
(2007-04)This paper will discuss the average amount of food being produced as waste at Dalhousie’s Howe Hall cafeteria. Included, is the average amount that each the patrons and kitchen are responsible for. In addition, we investigated ... -

Avoidance of fisheries-induced evolution: management implications for catch selectivity and limit reference points
(2009-08)I examined how the fitness (r) associated with early-and late-maturing genotypes varies with fishing mortality (F) and age-/size-specific probability of capture. Life-history data on Newfoundland's northern Atlantic cod ... -
AzTEC half square degree survey of the SHADES fields - II. Identifications, redshifts, and evidence for large-scale structure
(2012-05-10)The AzTEC 1.1 mm survey of the SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) fields is the largest (0.7 deg2) blank-field millimetre-wavelength survey undertaken to date at a resolution of ~18" and a depth of ~1 mJy. We ... -
AzTEC Half Square Degree Survey of the SHADES Fields -- I. Maps, Catalogues, and Source Counts
(2009-07-06)We present the first results from the largest deep extragalactic millimetre-wavelength survey undertaken to date. These results are derived from maps covering over 0.7 deg^2, made at 1.1mm, using the AzTEC continuum camera ...
