Emerging Hot Spot Analysis and Forests: A Case Study on the Hemlock Woolly Adelgid’s Invasion into Nova Scotia using Fine Spatial Resolution Satellite Imagery.
(2020-04)Adelges tsugae (hemlock woolly adelgid) is an invasive forest insect first identified in Nova Scotia in 2017. This insect poses a threat to the Acadian Forests, as Tsuga canadensis (eastern hemlock) is a keystone species ... -
Employee Behaviour and Sustainability in a Dining Hall at Dalhousie University
(2013-04)Due to the volume of food production, commercial-sized foodservice facilities are more energy and water-use intensive than office and classroom spaces. In addition, foodservices utilize large quantities of food and material ... -
ENABLING DIVESTMENT FROM FOSSIL FUELS: Characterizing Divestment Awareness and Support at Dalhousie University
(2017-04)A team of students at Dalhousie University has come together to develop a comprehensive research report on the state of divestment from fossil fuels at their University. Divestment campaigns have recently become popular ... -
Energetic galaxy-wide outflows in high-redshift ultra-luminous infrared galaxies hosting AGN activity
(2012-05-08)We present integral field spectroscopy observations, covering the [O III]4959,5007 emission-line doublet of eight high-redshift (z=1.4-3.4) ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) that host Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) ... -

The energetics of male reproduction in an acquatically mating pinniped, the harbour seal
(1998-07)The energy expenditure of breeding male harbour seals, Phoca vitulina, on Sable Island, Nova Scotia, was investigated by measuring changes in body mass, body composition, and water flux using isotope dilution. Seals lost ... -
Energy Star in Residences: A Comparison of Energy Star vs. non-Energy Star appliances in three Dalhousie University Student Residences
(2013-04)The purpose of this report is to provide Dalhousie University with information about the number of Energy Star appliances within the common rooms of three residences, Howe Hall, Risley Hall, and Shirreff Hall and how the ... -
Energy Use in the Student Union Building Kitchen
(2011-04)i-Research Question and Objective: What is the current level of energy consumption in the Dalhousie Student Union Building (henceforth referred to as the SUB) kitchen, and to what extent can we lower consumption by either ... -
Engaging stakeholders in marine conservation planning: Recommendations for moving forward with a bioregional marine protected area network on the Scotian Shelf
(2011-10-19)It is widely recognized that engaging stakeholders in marine protected area (MPA) network planning is critical for ensuring the long-term success of this conservation tool. Participatory decision-making leads to smoother ... -
