Reusable mug program: Assessing campus perspectives and use of the pilot program at the Killam Library, Dalhousie University
(2019-04)The main objective of this study is to assess perspectives and use of the reusable mug pilot program at the Killam Library, Dalhousie University. Reduction of solid waste is a widespread environmental and sustainability ... -
Reusable Mugs: Reducing Waste on Dalhousie’s Studley Campus
(2004-04)This project focuses on waste produced at Dalhousie University in Halifax by disposable cups. Thousands of cups of hot beverages are purchased on Dalhousie’s Studley campus everyday creating a large volume of waste. This ... -
Revealing the Seafloor: Exploring Local Knowledge and Interpretations of Benthic Spaces along the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia, Canada
(2023-05-30)Marine ecosystems are increasingly affected by climate change, understanding impacts, how they might change, or the role they will play in system adaptation is key to protecting the overall marine environment and broader ... -
Reversible lithium insertion in catalytically graphitized sugar carbon
(Elsevier, 2015-09-25)Highlights • First report of Li insertion in highly ordered catalytically derived graphite. • Fe catalyst combined with hard carbon precursors enable 1200 °C graphitization. • First report of highly ordered graphite ... -
The Reversible Magnesiation of Pb (Preprint)
(Elsevier Ltd, 2015-03-04)Sputtered Pb films have been found to reversibly alloy electrochemically with magnesium in Grignard based electrolytes. The voltage curve shows a single plateau at about 125 mV vs. Mg, corresponding to the formation of ... -

A review of the planned shipping activity for the Baffinland Mary River Project: assessing the hazards to marine mammals and migratory birds, and identifying gaps in proposed mitigation measures
(2011-11-16)Exploration for minerals, oil, and natural gas, as well as their exploitation and transportation, is heavily reliant on marine transportation. Global demand for these natural resources, as well as a rise in Arctic warming ... -

Riparian Buffer Removal and Associated Land Use in the Sackville River Watershed, Nova Scotia, Canada
(2010-04)“To what extent has riparian area been removed in the Sackville River watershed and what land uses are associated with this riparian area removal?” I investigate this question by assessing the extent of riparian area removal ... -
Risk vs. public reaction in marine oil spills: a case study analysis of six Atlantic Canadian marine vessel-sourced oil related incidents
(2012-09-20)Marine vessel-sourced oil related (MVSOR) incidents represent a potential threat to marine organisms and ecosystems in Atlantic Canada. The management of these incidents must involve management of the objective risks ... -
A robust method for diagnosing regional shelf circulation from scattered density profiles
(1996-11)We present a straightforward method for estimating surface circulation on an f plane from a set of irregularly spaced vertical density profiles. The first step is to express bottom density rho(h) as the sum of a mean for ... -
A robust sample of submillimetre galaxies: constraints on the prevalence of dusty, high-redshift starbursts
(2005-12-11)The modest significance of most sources detected in current submm surveys can potentially compromise some analyses due to the inclusion of spurious sources in catalogues typically selected at >3.0-3.5sigma. Here, we develop ... -
Robust Synthesis of F-BODIPYs
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)F-BODIPYs are widely used in applications that rely upon their highly tunable optical properties. A protocol is established for the high-yielding synthesis of F-BODIPYs involving non-anhydrous reagents and not requiring ... -
A role for generalized Fermat numbers
(American Mathematical Society, 2016)We define a Gauss factorial $N_n!$ to be the product of all positive integers up to $N$ that are relatively prime to $n\in\mathbb N$. In this paper we study particular aspects of the Gauss factorials $\lfloor\frac{n-1} ...
