Safety in the Canadian Commercial Fishing Industry: Over a Decade on the Transportation Safety Board Watchlist, what has changed?
(2022-07-18)Commercial fishing is considered one of the most dangerous occupations in Canada, as dozens of fishermen lose their lives or get seriously injured every year. Since 2010 fishing safety has been on the Transportation Safety ... -
Salt marshes in Nova Scotia: a status report of the Saltmarsh Working Group
(Institute of Resource and Environmental Studies and Department of Biology, Dalhousie University, 1981-06-01)There are approximately 80,000 acres of salt marsh land in Nova Scotia of which approximately 43,000 acres have been dyked for agricultural use. Salt marsh lands have served as major producers of food in estuarine regions. ... -
A Salty Situation: An Environmental and Economic Analysis of Ice-Management on Dalhousie University, Halifax Campuses
(2016-04)Road Salt is a common ice-management strategy, however it can be extremely damaging to the environment. In Halifax, Nova Scotia, Dalhousie University’s only form of de-icing is currently road salt. However, due to its ... -

Satellite observations reveal high variability and a decreasing trend in CO sub(2) fluxes on the Scotian Shelf
(European Geosciences Union, 2010-07)We develop an algorithm to compute pCO sub(2) in the Scotian Shelf region (NW Atlantic) from satellite-based estimates of chlorophyll-a concentration, sea-surface temperature, and observed wind speed. This algorithm is ... -
SCALE MODEL EXPERIMENTS WITH THE HORIZONTAL LOOP ELECTROMAGNETIC TECHNIQUE OF GEOPHYSICAL PROSPECTING Postprint
(1982-03-15)This study deals with the construction and application of a scale model horizontal loop electromagnetic system whose function is to quantitatively measure the in-phase portion of the vertical component of an anomalous ... -
Scaling solution, radion stabilization, and initial condition for brane-world cosmology

The scatter about the "Universal" dwarf spheroidal mass profile: A kinematic study of the M31 satellites, And V and And VI
(2011-03-10)While the satellites of the Milky Way (MW) have been shown to be largely consistent in terms of their mass contained within one half--light radius (M_{half}) with a "Universal" mass profile, a number of M31 satellites are ... -

SCHLIEREN IN THE SOUTH MOUNTAIN BATHOLITH AND PORT MOUTON PLUTON, MEGUMA ZONE, NOVA SCOTIA
(2001-04-15)Dynamic interactions between crystals and melt can form schlieren as primary features during the various stages of the crystallization of magmas. The restricted conditions necessary for the formation and preservation of ... -
Scientific parameterization and its validation: comparing the universal models of fisheries economics with the invalid modeling of stock assessment
(2008-09-22)Here I compare the valid parameterization of fisheries economics with the data-fitted parameters of a stock assessment’s modeling, invalid models whose predictions cannot be falsified (which is another way of saying ... -
A Scoping Literature Review of European and Atlantic Canadian Green Grab (Carcinus Maenas) Fisheries Literature to Identify Knowledge Gaps for Fisheries-Based Invasive Species Management
(2023-11)Aquatic invasive species are considered economic and environmental threats to Canada’s aquatic ecosystems. In Atlantic Canada, the European green crab (Carcinus maenas) is a management concern due to its destructive nature. ... -

The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - III. Identification of radio and mid-infrared counterparts to submillimetre galaxies
(2007-07-27)Determining an accurate position for a submm galaxy (SMG) is the crucial step that enables us to move from the basic properties of an SMG sample - source counts and 2-D clustering - to an assessment of their detailed, ... -
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - IV: Radio-mm-FIR photometric redshifts
(2007-08-21)We present the redshift distribution of the SHADES galaxy population based on the rest-frame radio-mm-FIR colours of 120 robustly detected 850um sources in the Lockman Hole East (LH) and Subaru XMM-Newton Deep Field (SXDF). ... -
The SCUBA Half Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - IX. The environment, mass and redshift dependence of star formation
(Blackwell Publishing, 2008)We present a comparison between the SCUBA (Submillimetre Common User Bolometer Array) Half Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) at 450 and 850 in the Lockman Hole East with a deep Spitzer Space Telescope survey at 3.6 ... -
The SCUBA Half Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - VII. Optical/IR photometry and stellar masses of sub-millimeter galaxies
(2008-05)We present estimates of the photometric redshifts, stellar masses and star formation histories of sources in the SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES). This paper describes the 60 SCUBA sources detected in the ...
