Adaptive optics near-IR imaging of NGC2992 - unveiling core structures related to radio figure-8 loops
(2000-05-11)We present near-IR adaptive optics, VLA radio and HST optical imaging of the nearby Seyfert galaxy NGC2992. Spiral structure and an extension to the West are traced down to the core region at the limiting resolution of our ... -
Adaptive Value and Costs of Physiological Plasticity to Soil Moisture Limitation in Recombinant Inbred Lines of Avena barbata
(2010-02)Costs are hypothesized to constrain the evolution of adaptive phenotypic plasticity, but they have been difficult to quantify because strong selection should eliminate costly genotypes from natural populations. However, ... -

The adjoint method of data assimilation used operationally for shelf circulation
(1996-02)A real-time shelf circulation model with data assimilation has been successfully used, possibly for the first time, on the outer Nova Scotian Shelf, The adjoint method was used to infer the time histories of flows across ... -

Adsorbate densities and surface potentials of physisorbed systems: A density-functional approach
(1987-06/15)A density-functional approach for the calculation of the density of particles adsorbed on the surface of a solid is explored including the adparticle two-body interaction. The coverages and effective surface potentials so ... -
Advancing an Integrated Management approach to Ship Strikes with Baleen whales on Canada’s Pacific Coast [graduate project].
(2015-11-23)Ship strikes have been identified as a threat to the survival and recovery of whale species populations. On Canada’s Pacific coast, ship strikes are noted as a potential threat to the recovery of baleen whales, specifically ... -
AEGIS20: a radio survey of the Extended Groth Strip
(2007-05-01)We describe AEGIS20 - a radio survey of the Extended Groth Strip (EGS) conducted with the Very Large Array (VLA) at 1.4GHz. The resulting catalog contains 1,123 emitters and is sensitive to ultraluminous starbursts to z1 ... -
AEGIS: Infrared Spectroscopy of An Infrared Luminous Lyman Break Galaxy at z=3.01
(2007-05-01)We report the detection of rest--frame 6.2 and 7.7 \micron emission features arising from Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) in the Spitzer/IRS spectrum of an infrared-luminous Lyman break galaxy at z=3.01. This is ... -
Aerobic hydrogen production and dinitrogen fixation in the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium erythraeum IMS101
(2008-11)Rates of hydrogen production and acetylene reduction were measured in aerobic cultures of the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium erythraeum IMS101 grown in a supplemented seawater medium low in combined inorganic nitrogen. ... -
Aerosol composition and sources in the central Arctic Ocean during ASCOS
(2011)Measurements of submicron aerosol chemical composition were made over the central Arctic Ocean from 5 August to 8 September 2008 as a part of the Arctic Summer Cloud Ocean Study (ASCOS) using an aerosol mass spectrometer ... -

Age of Onset and Duration of Deafness Drive Brain Organization for Biological Motion Perception in Non-Signers
(2016-09)We used fMRI to characterize the neural responses to biological motion in adults who became deaf at a wide range of ages, none of whom were fluent sign language users. Although hearing people showed stronger activation for ...
