The mean surface circulation of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre: A comparison of estimates derived from new gravity and oceanographic measurements
(2011-08)A new mean sea surface topography (MSST) is used to estimate the surface circulation of the subpolar gyre of the northwest Atlantic. The MSST is produced using a new geoid model derived from a blend of gravity data from ... -
Mean surface topography of the northwest Atlantic: Comparison of estimates based on satellite, terrestrial gravity, and oceanographic observations
(American Geophysical Union, 2009-07/08)The accuracy of a new mean sea surface topography (MSST) of the northwest Atlantic is assessed. The MSST is estimated from 12 years of altimeter observations referenced with respect to a new regional geoid based on a blend ... -

Measurement of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Increment in Massive Galaxy Clusters
(2003-12)We have detected the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) increment at 850 microns in two galaxy clusters (Cl 0016+16 and MS 1054.4-0321) using SCUBA (Sub-millimetre Common User Bolometer Array) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. ... -

Measurements of methyl chloride in the Northwest Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, 1994-04)Methyl chloride was measured directly in seawater using a purge and trap system and gas chromatography with electron capture detection. The results indicate that surface waters of the northwest Atlantic are a source of ... -
Measuring the Geometric Component of the Transition-Probability in a 2-Level System
(1991-04)We describe the measurement of a component of the nonadiabatic transition probability in a two-level system that depends only on the path through parameter space followed by the Hamiltonian, and not on how fast the path ... -
Mechanical–Structural Investigation of Ion-Exchanged Lithium Silicate Glass using Micro-Raman Spectroscopy
(American Chemical Society, 2016-03-21)Micro-Raman spectroscopy was used to determine the structural modifications occurring in a simple ion-exchanged glass. The base lithium silicate composition 30Li2O–70SiO2 was studied as it underwent ion exchange, Li+ ↔ K+, ... -
Mechanisms Influencing the Timing and Success of Reproductive Migration in a Capital Breeding Semelparous Fish Species, the Sockeye Salmon
(University of Chicago Press, P.O. Box 37005 Chicago IL 60637 USA, [mailto:help@press.uchicago.edu], [URL:http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/], 2009)Two populations of homing sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka; Adams and Chilko) were intercepted in the marine approaches around the northern and southern ends of Vancouver Island (British Columbia, Canada) en route to ... -
Mechanisms underlying the production effect for singing.
(Canadian Psychological Association, 2019)The production effect is defined as better memory for items that were read aloud compared to items that were read silently. Quinlan and Taylor (2013) expanded the findings of the production effect by demonstrating that ... -
Media perspectives of salmon aquaculture over time in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland
(2019-12)In Canada, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture has been growing rapidly and is consistently being promoted for its potential to support economic growth and employment opportunities. However, salmon aquaculture is a ... -

MERCURY IN TILL AND BEDROCK, KEJIMKUJIK NATIONAL PARK AREA, NOVA SCOTIA
(2002-04-15)Loons in Kejimkujik National Park (KNP), southwestern Nova Scotia, have the highest levels of mercury (Hg) concentration in blood of any loon population in North America. For the past several years, a multi-disciplinary ...
