First results from the UBC etch-alignment mosaic CCD
(1997-06-26)First imaging results are obtained with a new CCD mosaic prototype (3K x 3k, 15 \mu m pixels). The CCDs are aligned using an etched socket alignment technique. Three different measurements of the alignment are made using ... -
The first series of alkali dipyrrinato complexes
(2010-08)The first series of alkali dipyrrinato complexes is reported, encompassing lithium, sodium, and potassium salts of meso-unsubstituted and meso-aryl-substituted derivatives. By varying the substituents at the meso position, ... -
A First-Approximation Windthrow Risk Index for Street Trees on the Halifax Peninsula
(2012-03)Trees in the Halifax Regional Municipality are at particular risk to windthrow because of their proximity to the coast, and the risk of increasing storminess in the future. This study aimed to create a vulnerability index ... -
First-principles study of the nuclear quadrupole resonance parameters and orbital ordering in LaTiO3.
(2009)The electronic structure of the distorted perovskite LaTiO3 is studied using d.-functional theory, implemented with a projector-augmented wave formalism together with the local-d. approxn. plus Hubbard U-parameter (LDA+U) ... -

(2023-12)There are escalating threats to freshwater ecosystems, including pollution, invasive species, land use changes, and climate change. Recognizing the importance of habitat protection in conserving freshwater biodiversity, ... -
Fisheries Stock Assessment: an inductive science with the Logical form of Primitive Magic
(2010-01-20)Abstract. A logical analysis of the common fisheries models used in stock assessment has shown that they produce specific predictions with the logical form of existential statements, fail Karl Popper’s falsifiability ... -
Fishing Fairness: The Case of Class B Lobster Fishing License
(2023-05-30)In 1976 the lobster fishery in Atlantic Canada was overfished and in decline. In response, Canada’s federal government implemented a “moonlighter policy” which designated fishers who had employment outside the fishery as ... -
Fishing in different pools: Job-search strategies and job-finding success in Canada in the early 1980s
(University of Chicago, acting through its Press, 1993-04)The job-search methods of jobless workers are examined in an analysis that emphasizes sample selectivity in choice of job-search strategies, especially the use of public employment agencies. Longitudinal data from the Labor ... -
FIXATION OF SULPHUR DURING FRAMBOIDAL PYRITE DEVELOPMENT IN A PETROLEUM RESERVOIR IN CRETACEOUS VOLCANICS IN THE ANDES: IMPLICATIONS FOR CU METALLOGENESIS
(2002-04-15)El Soldado, Chile, is a giant strata-bound copper deposit hosted in Lower Cretaceous basalt and rhyodacite. Previous work suggested that copper was concentrated preferentially where hydrothermal copper-rich solutions ... -
Fluid Inclusion Geothermometry in Fluorite from Gays River, Nova Scotia and Boat Harbour, Newfoundland
(1980-03-15)Fluid inclusions in post-ore fluorite from the base metal deposit in Carboniferous carbonates at Gays River, Nova Scotia, homogenize at a mean temperature of 142 + 8oC. Calcite in the deposit crystallized earlier, at a ... -
