Electrically stimulated artificial mussel (Mytilus edulis) reefs to create shoreline protection and coastal habitat in St. Margaret’s Bay, Nova Scotia.
(2020-12)Infrastructure designed to protect coastal environments, such as seawalls, can have adverse effects on the area they are supposed to protect. Hard shore armouring can be expensive, disrupt hydrodynamic processes, eventually ... -
Electrochemical Activity of Nano-NiSi2 in Li Cells
(The Electrochemical Society, 2016-09-09)Crystalline and nanocrystalline NiSi2 were studied as negative electrode materials in Li cells. Crystalline NiSi2 was found to be inactive toward lithiation/delithiation. However, it was found that NiSi2 becomes active ... -
The Electrochemical Behavior of Polyimide Binders in Li and Na Cells
(The Electrochemical Society, 2015-12-09)The electrochemistry of aromatic and aliphatic polyimide binders was characterized in composite coatings for Li-ion and Na-ion battery negative electrodes. Aromatic polyimide was found to have a large first lithiation ... -
The Electrochemical Reaction Mechanism of Tin Phosphide with Sodium
(The Electrochemical Society, 2016-04-08)The sodiation mechanism of Sn4P3 was studied by ex-situ X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer effect spectroscopy. These results show that Sn4P3 is initially amorphized during sodiation, and suggest that upon further sodiation ... -
Electrochemical route for the fabrication of alkanethiolate-capped gold nanoparticles

Electrochemistry and Thermal Behavior of SiOx Made by Reactive Gas Milling
(The Electrochemical Society, 2020-06-30)SiOx with various oxygen contents were synthesized from Si powder by a simple room-temperature ball milling method by controlling the air exposure time during milling. The resulting SiOx consists of nano and amorphous Si ... -
The Electrochemistry of Amorphous Si-B Thin Film Electrodes in Li Cells
(The Electrochemical Society, 2015-11-14)Abstract Si1-xBx thin films of 0.071 ≤ x ≤ 0.950 have been synthesized using combinational sputtering. All Si1-xBx film compositions had a highly amorphous structure consisting of amorphous Si and B phases, as characterized ... -
Electrochemistry of Catalytically Graphitized Ball Milled Carbon in Li Batteries
(The Electrochemical Society, 2016-03-03)High carbon Fe-C composites with starting concentrations of 10, 20, 30, and 40 wt% Fe (2.3 - 12.5 atomic % Fe) were prepared by ball milling followed by annealing. Increasing the Fe concentration and annealing temperature ... -
Electrochemistry of CuxSi1−x Alloys in Li Cells
(The Electrochemical Society, 2016-04-20)The structure and electrochemistry in lithium cells of sputtered thin films and ball milled alloys in the Cu-Si system (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.60 in CuxSi1−x) were investigated. Both thin films and ball milled Cu-Si alloys showed the ... -

ELEMENT MOBILITY AS A RESULT OF CHEMICAL WEATHERING IN A GRANITOID NEAR VALPARAISO, CHILE
(2008-04)The chemical breakdown of the geologic environment is a source of both beneficial and toxic elements in biological and water systems. A saprolite is preserved when the chemical weathering rate of bedrock exceeds its ... -
Elucidating determinants of aerosol composition through particle-type-based receptor modeling
(2011)An aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometer (ATOFMS) was deployed at a semi-rural site in southern Ontario to characterize the size and chemical composition of individual particles. Particle-type-based receptor modelling ... -

Emerging Hot Spot Analysis and Forests: A Case Study on the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid’s Invasion into Nova Scotia using Fine Spatial Resolution Satellite Imagery.
(2020-04)Adelges tsugae (hemlock woolly adelgid) is an invasive forest insect first identified in Nova Scotia in 2017. This insect poses a threat to the Acadian Forests, as Tsuga canadensis (eastern hemlock) is a keystone species ... -
Employee Behaviour and Sustainability in a Dining Hall at Dalhousie University
(2013-04)Due to the volume of food production, commercial-sized foodservice facilities are more energy and water-use intensive than office and classroom spaces. In addition, foodservices utilize large quantities of food and material ... -
ENABLING DIVESTMENT FROM FOSSIL FUELS: Characterizing Divestment Awareness and Support at Dalhousie University
(2017-04)A team of students at Dalhousie University has come together to develop a comprehensive research report on the state of divestment from fossil fuels at their University. Divestment campaigns have recently become popular ...
