Studley House: Light Audit
(2010-04)Energy consumption in many buildings at Dalhousie University is an expenditure which, in several cases, is able to be reduced. An examination was done into one area of energy consumption, the lighting system within the ... -
A Study of a Late Devonian-Carboniferous, Porphyritic Microgranite-Hosted, Hydrothermal Breccia Pipe in the Mount Pleasant Caldera Complex, New Brunswick, Canada
(1987-04-15)The South Oromocto Lake (SOL) breccia zone is located approximately 5.3km NE of Mount Pleasant in the Mount Pleasant caldera complex, south-western New Brunswick, Canada. Late stage hydrothermal activity during cooling of ... -
A Study of Carbonate Rocks From the Late Visean to Namurian Mabou Group, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia
(1995-04-15)The Late Visean to Namurian Mabou Group of Cape Breton Island conformably overlies the marine to non-marine Windsor Group and unconformably to conformably underlies the fluviatile Cumberland Group. It represents the first ... -
A study of phase transitions in cadmium perchlorate hexahydrate (Cd(ClO4)2.6H2O) by adiabatic calorimetry and infrared spectroscopy.
(1985)A calorimetric study of Cd(ClO4)2.6H2O from 20 to 345 K shows 3 phase transformations, at 124.8, 238.45, and 271.62 K. IR spectra indicate that the low-temp. structure (below 124.8 K) contains 1 type of [Cd(OH2)6]2+, of ... -
A Study of some Trace Metals in Surface and Ground Waters at Bridgewater, Nova Scotia
(1978-03-15)Much controversy has arisen concerning the water quality in an area northwest of Bridgewater, Nova Scotia. To resolve the problem, water samples were taken and analyzed for trace metals, from the area which was also ... -
A Study of Sulfide Mineralization in the Meguma Group Sediments Gold Brook, Colchester County, Nova Scotia.
(1982-03-15)A preliminary study of representative drill core from the Gold Brook property (of Sulpetro Minerals Limited), Colchester County, Nova Scotia was undertaken, to describe the styles of strata-bound and vein-type mineralization ... -
A Study of the Rare Earth Element Geochemistry and Mineral Chemistry of the Anorthosites and Related Rocks near Pleasant Bay, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia
(1979-03-15)The anorthosites and related rocks of this study are located about 5 kilometres east of the village of Pleasant Bay, Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. The anorthosites outcrop as a thin (~900m), northeast-trending lens with ... -
A Study of the Silica-Undersaturated Alkaline Rocks of the Laacher Sea Area, East Eifel Volcanic Field, West Germany
(1983-03-15)The generation of alkaline rocks is a complex process. The East Eifel volcanic field in West Germany represents the most alkalic rocks in the alkaline province of Central Europe and France. The area of particular interest, ... -
A study of the use of data provided by coastal atlases in coastal policy and decision-making [graduate project].
(2015-03-03)Every 20 seconds a new journal article is published, emphasizing the fact that an incredibly large volume of data and information is being generated, yet most of it remains underutilized or overlooked. Information plays ... -
Sub-mm and near-IR observations of galaxies selected at 170 microns
(2003-08-21)We present results from JCMT sub-mm observations of sources selected from the {\sl ISO} FIRBACK (Far-IR BACKground) survey, along with UKIRT near-IR imaging of a sub-sample. This gives valuable insight into the brightest ... -
Subcellular Min Oscillations as a Single-Cell Reporter of the Action of Polycations, Protamine, and Gentamicin on Escherichia coli
(2009-09)No abstract available. -
Submillimeter Galaxies at z 2: Evidence for Major Mergers & Constraints on Lifetimes, IMF and CO-H2 Conversion Factor
(2008-06-10)We report sub-arcsecond resolution IRAM PdBI millimeter CO interferometry of four z~2 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs), and sensitive CO (3-2) flux limits toward three z 2 UV-/optically selected star forming galaxies. The new ... -
Submillimeter Observations of Millimeter Bright Galaxies Discovered by the South Pole Telescope
(2012-06-20)We present APEX SABOCA 350micron and LABOCA 870micron observations of 11 representative examples of the rare, extremely bright (S_1.4mm > 15mJy), dust-dominated millimeter-selected galaxies recently discovered by the South ... -
Submillimeter Observations of the Ultraluminous BAL Quasar APM 08279+5255
(1998-9-20)With an inferred bolometric luminosity of $5\times10^{15}{\rm \lsun}$, the recently identified z=3.87, broad absorption line quasar APM 08279+5255 is apparently the most luminous object currently known. As half of its ... -
Submillimetre and far-infrared spectral energy distributions of galaxies: the luminosity-temperature relation and consequences for photometric redshifts
(2003-01)The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of dusty high-redshift galaxies are poorly sampled in frequency and spatially unresolved. Their form is crucially important for estimating the large luminosities of these galaxies ... -
Submillimetre Detection of the z=2.83 Lyman-Break Galaxy, Westphal-MM8, and Implications for SCUBA2
(2009-03-12)We present confusion limited submillimetre (submm) observations with the SCUBA camera on the JCMT of the z=2.83 Lyman-break galaxy (LBG), Westphal-MM8, reaching an 850um sensitivity even greater than that achieved in the ... -
A submillimetre galaxy at z=4.76 in the LABOCA survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South
(2009-06-01)We report on the identification of the highest redshift submm-selected source currently known: LESSJ033229.4-275619. This source was detected in the Large Apex BOlometer CAmera (LABOCA) Extended Chandra Deep Field South ... -
Submillimetre observations of a sample of broad absorption line quasars
(2003-10-10)The broad absorption line (BAL) features seen in a small fraction of quasar optical/UV spectra are attributed to bulk outflows away from the quasar core. Observational evidence suggests that dust plays a key role in these ...
