Evaluation of Seasonal Dynamics of Soil Macro-Nutrients and Corn Nutrient Uptake in Fields Amended with Three Types of Municipal Biosolids
(2020-12-21)Field-based experiments are being conducted to examine the effect of three municipal biosolids (composted, liquid mesophilic anaerobically digested, and alkaline stabilized) on soil nutrient dynamics, applied over three ... -
Evaluation of Simplified Methods of Analysis for Timber Bridges
(2022-03-31)The design of timber bridges in Canada is carried out in conjunction with the Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code. A key feature of this code is the ability to employ a Simplified Method of Analysis (SMA) to determine the ... -
Evaluation of Soil-Cement Properties With Electrical Resistivity
(2013-05-09)The quality control of soil-cement during construction would benefit from a cost and time efficient tool for evaluating the soil-cement performance. The degree of cement mixing in ground improvement applications is key to ... -
EVALUATION OF SOLID STATE ACCELEROMETER SENSOR FOR EFFECTIVE POSITION ESTIMATION
(2010-12-08)Inertial sensors such as Gyroscope and Accelerometer show systematic as well as random errors in the measurement. Furthermore, double integration method shows accumulation of error in position estimation due to inherent ... -
EVALUATION OF SOURCE SEPARATED ORGANICS AFTER INOCULATION WITH EFFECTIVE MICROORGANISMS AND THE EFFECT ON COMPOST QUALITY.
(2015)A large volume of source-separated organics (SSO) are generated around the world and there are limited management strategies to reduce their effect on the environment. The volume of compost can be reduced through ... -
Evaluation of Sugar Biosynthetic Enzymes and Studies on Jadomycin Biosynthesis
(2019-01-15)Carbohydrates are ubiquitous in biological systems, possessing diversity in terms of both structure and function. Studies pertaining to bacterial enzymes that recognize and process carbohydrates in cell wall biosynthesis ... -
Evaluation Of Tasco® As A Candidate Prebiotic In Broiler Chickens
(2012-03-05)Tasco® made of sun dried brown seaweed (Ascophyllum nodosum) by Acadian Seaplants Ltd., has displayed prebiotic like properties with ruminants and may be an alternative to antibiotic growth promoters. Tasco® was fed to ... -
Evaluation of the Community Balance and Mobility Scale in a cardiac rehabilitation population
(2013-12-16)Recent research indicates the need for a functional balance assessment in cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs. One assessment technique that may be appropriate is the Community Balance and Mobility Scale (CBMS). The purpose ... -
EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTS OF FEEDING MARINE ALGAE AND SEAWEEDS ON RUMINAL DIGESTION USING IN VITRO CONTINUOUS CULTURE FERMENTATION
(2011-07-08)Continuous culture fermentation (CCF) was used to test the hypotheses that: marine microalgae (MA) and macroalgae (seaweeds) alter rumen microbial metabolism; MA types differ in abilities to provide rumen escape n-3 ... -
An Evaluation of the Impact of Physician Education on Prescribing for Hypertension in a Nursing Home
(2014-12-09)Background: Nursing home residents are a frail population with multiple co-morbidities, and at risk for polypharmacy and its associated adverse events. Nevertheless, most clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) do not consider ... -
Evaluation of the Sodium Calcium Exchange Inhibitor
(2011-09-08)Arresting the heart with cardioplegia solution is the usual strategy to protect the myocardium during cardiac surgery. However, ischemia-reperfusion injury, due in part to Ca2+ overload, remains a clinical problem. Ca2+ ... -

EVALUATION OF TRANSGENIC CAMELINA SATIVA OIL AND SCHIZOCHYTRIUM SP. OIL AS A SOURCE OF DIETARY LIPID FOR JUVENILE RAINBOW TROUT (ONCORHYNCHUS MYKISS).
(2021-04-30)Two experimental feeding trials examined Genetically engineered Camelina sativa and high DHA Schizochytrium sp. oils as dietary lipid alternatives for rainbow trout. Fish fed high camelina oil diets (HCO) had no differences ... -
Evaluation of Waste Gypsum Wallboard as a Compost Additive
(2014-04-07)Twenty percent of all the material delivered to construction and demolition (C&D) disposal sites in the Province of Nova Scotia, Canada, is waste gypsum wallboard (WGW) (Dillon Consulting Ltd., 2006). This is typically in ... -
EVALUATION OF WASTE SLAG TO REMOVE TARGET METALS FROM INDUSTRIAL STORMWATER RUNOFF
(2018-04-05)Contaminated industrial stormwater runoff can contribute elevated high organic and inorganic pollution mass loads to receiving surface water bodies. Metals, such as cadmium (Cd), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) are ... -
Event Horizon Detection for Five Dimensional Stationary Black Holes
(2018-02-28)n this thesis we show how to locate the event horizons for five dimensional (5D) stationary black holes. We present the Cartan algorithm in an arbitrary number of dimensions and apply it in 4D and 5D. To facilitate the ... -
