Linking movement, diving, and habitat to foraging success in a large marine predator
(2006-12)Establishing where and when predators forage is essential to understanding trophic interactions, yet foraging behavior remains poorly understood in large marine carnivores. We investigated the factors leading to foraging ... -
Linking people to places: evaluating the methodology of collecting human-use data from conservation and protection officers for coastal marine protected area planning in Nova Scotia
(2011-10-21)Nova Scotia’s coastal habitats and marine resources are vital to the province’s economy, identity, and well-being. Increasing human populations and associated pressures, however, are threatening these resources. A key ... -
Lipid and gross energy content of North Atlantic right whale food, Calanus finmarchicus, in the Bay of Fundy
(2007)We address spatial and temporal distribution of abundance, lipid and caloric content and water column energy density of the copepod Calanus finmarchicus, a major food source for the north Atlantic right whale (NARW) Eubalaena ... -
Lithium Insertion in Nanostructured Si1-xTix Alloys
(The Electrochemical Society, 2017-09-30)Nanostructured Si1-xTix alloys (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) prepared by ball milling were studied as negative electrode materials in Li cells. The alloys comprised a nanocrystalline andamorphousSiphaseandananocrystallineC49TiSi2 phase. ... -

Lithofacies of the Lower Paleozoic Carbonate Shelf to Basin Facies Transition, West-Central Ellesmere Island, Canadian Arctic
(1983-04-15)The Upper Ordovician (Ashgillian) to Middle Silurian (Wenlockian) graptolitic carbonates and cherts of the Cape Phillips Formation accumulated in the deep water basinal environment of the Hazen Trough. The coeval platform ... -
Lithogeochemistry of the Goldenville-Halifax Transition (GHT) of the Meguma Group in the Manganiferous Zinc-Lead Deposit at Eastville, Nova Scotia
(1986-04-15)Zentilli et al. (1984) have pointed out that most metalliferous deposits within the Cambro- Ordovician Meguma Group have a spatial relation to the Goldenville - Halifax Formation transition (GHT). The GHT is generally more ... -
llmenite-Pyrophanite and Niobian RuHle in tbe South Mountafn Batholith, Nova Scotia
(2003-04-15)Ilmenite and rutile are ubiquitous, but modally scarce (<0.5%), minerals in gr~nitoid rocks of the differentiated peraluminous South Mountain Batholith (SMB). Ilmenite occurs as blocky 0.05-0.90 mm grains in biotite, and ... -
Local Environment of Li Intercalated in Mo6sezs8-Z as Probed using Electrochemical Methods

Local structure and magnetic properties of B2- and B20-like ultrathin Mn films grown on Si(001)
(American Physical Society, 2012-01/01)The structural and magnetic properties of ultrathin Mn layers deposited onto Si(001) by molecular beam epitaxy at low temperature are reported. X-ray absorption fine structure studies reveal that the structure of the ... -
Long & Short Term Trends & Fluctuations of GroundWater Levels at Three Sites in Nova Scotia.
(2000-04-15)Groundwater is an essential resource in Nova Scotia, used by over half of the province's population for domestic purposes. In order to manage this resource effectively, it is important to understand if and how groundwater ... -
Long Run Trends in Economic Inequality in Five Countries - A Birth Cohort View

Long-term change in a meso-predator community in response to prolonged and heterogeneous human impact
(2013-01)Sharks and rays' abundance can decline considerably with fishing. Community changes, however, are more complex because of species interactions, and variable vulnerability and exposure to fishing. We evaluated long-term ...
