(2020-04)In this study, the purchasing patterns of fresh produce amongst Dalhousie students on the Halifax campuses are identified and assessed in order to determine correlating factors and variables pertaining to the logistics ... -
VELOCITY STRUCTURE OF A METHANE HYDRATE STABILITY ZONE, OFFSHORE VANCOUVER ISLAND
(1998-04-15)The occurrence of methane hydrates within marine sediments of the accretionary prism of the Cascadia Margin, offshore Vancouver Island has been inferred by the occurrence of a bottom simulating reflector (BSR), which is ... -

The vertical structure of tropical convection and its impact on the budgets of water vapor and ozone
(American Meteorological Society, 2005)Convective clouds in the Tropics that penetrate the boundary layer inversion preferentially detrain into a shallow outflow layer (2-5 km) or a deep outflow layer (10-17 km). The properties of these layers are diagnosed ... -
Vessel needs, preferences, and restrictions related to minimizing risk to whales without compromising vessel operations and the safety of navigation [graduate project]
(2015-11-23)New approaches to large whale conservation make use of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs such as ocean gliders) to acoustically detect whales in near real-time, and send ‘whale alert’ information on whale locations to ... -
A Vigorous Starburst in the SCUBA Galaxy N2 850.4
(2003-07-11)We present optical and near-IR spectroscopy of a z=2.38 hyperluminous IR galaxy, covering the restframe wavelength range from 1000-5000A. It appears to comprise two components separated by less than 1" on the sky (<8kpc); ... -
