The Edible Campus
(2013-04)The Edible Campus research project was suggested by the Dalhousie Student Union Sustainability Office (DSUSO) to identify ways of increasing campus sustainability by providing students access to fresh, local food ... -
Effect of a low-fat diet on body composition and blubber fatty acids of captive juvenile harp seals (Phoca groenlandica)
(2000-01)We investigated the effects of a change from a high-fat diet to a low-fat diet of differing fatty acid (FA) composition on the body composition and blubber FA of five captive juvenile harp seals. Seals that had been ... -
The effect of a weakening Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation on ocean temperatures in the Gulf of St. Lawrence over the past 150 years
(2021-04-15)Ocean circulation is essential for transporting heat, dissolved CO2, and nutrients all around the globe. The strength of the ocean circulation, therefore, has a major influence on climate and vice versa. Over time, ocean ... -
Effect of Boundary Layers on Cutaneous Gas Exchange
(1990)Boundary layers may offer significant resistance to cutaneous oxygen uptake by amphibians in water. This hypothesis was tested by measuring resistance to oxygen uptake as a function of water velocity in bullfrogs submerged ... -
The effect of call similarity on call discrimination by Tree Swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) nestlings in the presence of noise
(2021-04)As the extent of noise expands with urbanization, so does the extent of its impacts on wildlife. The impact of noise is particularly strong when it comes to the disruption of avian communication. Birds rely heavily on ... -
The Effect of Campus Study Spaces on Mental Wellbeing at Dalhousie University: Does the Lack of Natural Light in the Killam Library Reduce Students Mental Wellbeing?
(2018-04)The purpose of this study is to test whether the lack of natural light in the Killam Library reduces the mental wellbeing of students during the winter season at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. This study is ... -
Effect of Coronary Ablation and Adrenergic-Stimulation on In-Vivo Cardiac-Performance in Trout (Oncorhynchus-Mykiss)
(1994-01)In fish, catecholamine-induced changes in cardiac performance in vivo are the result of complex interactions between the direct adrenergic effects on the heart and peripheral circulation and the reflex responses to increased ... -
The Effect of Economic Insecurity on Mental Health: Recent Evidence from Australian Panel Data
(2015-12)This paper estimates the impact of economic insecurity on the mental health of Australian adults. Taking microdata from the 2001-2011 HILDA panel survey, we develop a conceptually diverse set of insecurity measures and ... -

The effect of extensive green roof substrate composition on native low-bush blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) and crowberry (Empetrum nigrum) growth and health
(2014-04)The establishment of native vegetation on green roofs may reduce maintenance requirements and increase local biodiversity and ecosystem services. In Nova Scotia, native species from coastal barrens have been selected for ... -

Effect of finite mean free path on spin-flip scattering rates near the critical point of magnetically ordered systems
(1985)The finite electron mean free path of conduction electrons is found to play an important role in determining spin-flip scattering rates, 1/sf, near a magnetic critical point. Small-momentum-transfer processes are suppressed ...
