Jellyfish Support High Energy Intake of Leatherback Sea Turtles (Dermochelys coriacea): Video Evidence from Animal-Borne Cameras
(2012-03)The endangered leatherback turtle is a large, highly migratory marine predator that inexplicably relies upon a diet of low-energy gelatinous zooplankton. The location of these prey may be predictable at large oceanographic ... -

THE JOGGINS AND SPRINGHILL MINES FORMATIONS FACIES MODEL AND INTERPRETATION OF THE PALED-ENVIRONMENT
(1998-04-15)The type section of the Joggins Formation is located along the eastern shore of Chignecto Bay, Nova Scotia. A bed-by-bed measurement of the Carboniferous strata within a 200m stratigraphic zone encompassing the Joggins ... -
A joint analysis of BLAST 250--500um and LABOCA 870um observations in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South
(2011-02-11)We present a joint analysis of the overlapping BLAST 250, 350, 500um, and LABOCA 870um observations (from the LESS survey) of the ECDF-S. Out to z~3, the BLAST filters sample near the peak wavelength of far-infrared (FIR) ... -

Karl Popper’s organon and the world’s fisheries: fish stock assessment as a pseudoscience, an inductivism that can bear no fruit
(2006)Recent long term historical studies of commercial fisheries have pointed to a well established pattern of overfishing. Under the principle of transference – what is true in logic is true in psychology and scientific method ... -
A Keck/DEIMOS Kinematic Study of Andromeda IX: dark matter on the smallest galactic scales
(2005-10-20)We present the results of a kinematic survey of the dwarf spheroidal satellite of M31, And-IX, which appears to be the lowest surface brightness and also the faintest galaxy (M_V = -8.3) found to date. Using Keck/DEIMOS ... -

Key players in the Grieg NL Placentia Bay Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Project: a social network analysis
(2018-12)Global aquaculture is one of the fastest growing food industries, accounting for approximately half of all finfish and invertebrate production as of 2016. In Canada, both the federal and provincial governments are pushing ... -
Killer storms: North Atlantic hurricanes and disease outbreaks in sea urchins
(2010-11)An increase in the incidence of disease in various marine organisms over the past few decades has been linked to ocean climate change. In Nova Scotia, Canada, mass mortalities of sea urchins, due to an amoebic disease, ... -
Kinematic and Chemical constraints on the formation of M31's inner and outer halo
(2007-11-28)The halo of M31 shows a wealth of substructures that are consistent with satellite accretion. Here we report on kinematic and abundance results from Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopy in the calcium triplet region of over 3500 red ... -
The kinematic footprints of five stellar streams in Andromeda's halo
(2008-10)(abridged) We present a spectroscopic analysis of five stellar streams (`A', `B', `Cr', `Cp' and `D') as well as the extended star cluster, EC4, which lies within streamC, all discovered in the halo of M31 from our ...
