Pacific Salmon in Hot Water: Applying Aerobic Scope Models and Biotelemetry to Predict the Success of Spawning Migrations
(University of Chicago Press, P.O. Box 37005 Chicago IL 60637 USA, [mailto:help@press.uchicago.edu], [URL:http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/], 2008-12)Concern over global climate change is widespread, but quantifying relationships between temperature change and animal fitness has been a challenge for scientists. Our approach to this challenge was to study migratory ... -
“Pain is not over when the needle ends”: A review and preliminary model of acute pain memory development in childhood
(Future Medicine Ltd, 2012)Over the past several decades, the field of pediatric pain has made impressive advances in our understanding of the pain experience of the developing child, as well as the devastating impact of inadequately managed pain ... -
Paleo-sea ice conditions of the Amundsen Gulf, Canadian Arctic Archipelago: Implications from the foraminiferal record of the last 200 years
(2008-03)Four boxcores were collected as part of the Canadian Arctic Exchange Shelf Study (CASES) in the Amundsen Gulf at water depths of 59 m to 600 m. Data from these cores help to develop a record of changes in the oceanographic ... -
Paleoceanographic Reconstruction of the Inner Scotian Shelf During the Younger Dryas: A Benthic Foramineral Study
(1994-03-15)Examination of foraminifera from piston core 91-018-53P permits a paleoceanographic reconstruction of the Inner Scotian Shelf, with emphasis on the Younger Dryas cold period. A minimum in the total number of foraminifera ... -
Paleoceanographic Trends on the Northern Scotian Shelf
(1986-04-15)Paleoceanographic trends are recorded and reflected in the preservation of benthonic foraminiferal assemblages in ocean floor sediments. This study presents a succession of foraminiferal assemblages from an 8m core taken ... -
Paleoenvironment of Triassic Dinosaurs and Other Tetrapods at Carrs Brook, Nova Scotia.
(2000-04-15)A section of Triassic strata is exposed at Carrs Brook, on the northern margin of the Minas Subbasin, Colchester County, Nova Scotia. A detailed map of the Carrs Brook section was made using a plane table survey. The 200-300 ... -
Paleoenvironmental Analysis of Halifax Harbour: Sedimentology, Paleoclimatology, and Holocene Sea Level
(1994-03-15)Three cores (numbered 2,9,10) collected from Halifax Harbour using new submersible vibracoring equipment permits a reinterpretation of an acoustically distinct seismostratigraphic unit. This unit, never previously sampled, ... -
Paleomagnetism of Dsdp Sediments, Phase-Shifting of Magnetic-Anomalies, and Rotations of West Philippine Basin

Paleosols of the Westphalian D Sydney Mines Formation, Sydney Basin, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada
(1992-04-15)Lacustrine-deltaic deposits in the Sydney Mines Formation contain paleosols. Three soil profiles (1 m, 1.2 m, and 0.9 m long) sampled over an 11.8 m interval of drill core taken ca. 200 m offshore Point Aconi, Cape Breton, ... -
Paleotectonic setting of the Takla Group volcano-sedimentary assemblage, Stikine Terrane, McConnell Creek map area, north central British Columbia
(1996-04-15)The Upper Triassic Takla Group volcano-sedimentary assemblage is located within the Stikine Terrane of the Intermontane Belt in the Canadian Cordillera. In the McConnell Creek area, the assemblage consists of clinopyroxene ... -
Palynology and Stratigraphy of an Upper Cretaceous Sedimentary-Volcanic Sequence, Emma Fiord, Northwest Ellesmere Island, N.W.T, Canada.
(1989-04-15)Terrestrial sedimentary units (lignite and siliclastics) are interbedded with bimodal volcanic units (alkali basalts, silicic volcanics and pyroclastics) on an unnamed peninsula between Audhild Bay and Emma Fiord (81o30'N, ... -
PALYNOLOGY OF THE LOWER CRETACEOUS CHASWOOD FORMATION, ELMSVALE BASIN AND SHUBENACADIE OUTLIER, NOVA SCOTIA
(2002-04-15)The unconsolidated sand and clay deposits of the Shubenacadie and Musquodoboit basins have been documented in detailed studies since the 1950's. General mapping projects from as early as the 1900's have postulated that the ... -
PAndAS in the mist: The stellar and gaseous mass within the halos of M31 and M33
(2012-11-16)Large scale surveys of the prominent members of the Local Group have provided compelling evidence for the hierarchical formation of massive galaxies, revealing a wealth of substructure that is thought to be the debris from ... -
PAndAS' cubs: discovery of two new dwarf galaxies in the surroundings of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies
(2009-09-02)We present the discovery of two new dwarf galaxies, Andromeda XXI and Andromeda XXII, located in the surroundings of the Andromeda and Triangulum galaxies (M31 and M33). These discoveries stem from the first year data of ... -
PAndAS' progeny: extending the M31 dwarf galaxy cabal
(2011-02-14)We present the discovery of five new dwarf galaxies, Andromeda XXIII-XXVII, located in the outer halo of M31. These galaxies were found in the second year of data from the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS) of ...
