On Developing and Implementing an Effective Approach to Coastal Management in Nova Scotia. Volume 1, Issue 2
(Marine Affairs Program, 2008-05-01) -
On the accretion origin of a vast extended stellar disk around the Andromeda galaxy
(2005-11-20)We present the discovery of an inhomogenous, low-surface brightness, extended disk-like structure around the Andromeda galaxy (M31) based on a large kinematic survey of more than 2800 stars with the Keck/DEIMOS spectrograph. ... -
On the application of cavity ringdown spectroscopy to measurements of line shapes and continuum absorption
(2002)No abstract available. -
On the construction of quasi-exactly solvable Schrodinger operators on homogeneous spaces
(1995)No abstract available. -
On The Rocks - THE TRAINING OF GEOLOGISTS AT DALHOUSIE
(1994-04-15) -
On-farm measurements of pH, electrical conductivity and nitrate in soil extracts for monitoring coupling and decoupling of nutrient cycles
(Biological Agriculture & Horticulture, 1993) -
A one-dimensional cloud model with trimodal convective outflow
(American Meteorological Society, 2009)The author describes a one-dimensional cloud model designed to investigate the relationships between stratiform downdrafts, congestus outflow, stability, and relative humidity in the tropical lower troposphere. In the ... -
Operational Conflict between Seals and Fisheries: Recommendations for Approaching the Problem in Atlantic Canada.
(2013-10-03)Conflicts between marine mammals and fisheries occur worldwide. Conflict can be separated into two categories: (i) operational conflict, involving direct physical interaction with fisheries, such as depredation and gear ... -
Opportunities and Challenges of Environmental Assessment under CEAA 2012
(2013-03)The objective of this study was to review how implementation of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act 2012, as a part of the Canadian Federal Budget Bill (C-38), will affect environmental assessment, and ultimately ... -
Opportunities for the Reduction of Skate Bycatch in Atlantic Canada Trawl Fisheries: A Case Study of two Innovative Trawl Gear Designs [graduate project]
(2015-03-03)Skates are fish under the Subclass of elasmobranchii, typically found in temperate or arctic waters. Catch of skates pose a number of issues for fishers as bycatch including increased handling effort, reduced value of ... -
Opportunities to improve and integrate coastal water quality monitoring in Nova Scotia
(2011-11-01)Coastal water quality (CWQ) has been identified as a priority issue in the development of a Sustainable Coastal Development Strategy for Nova Scotia. While a host of different monitoring programs currently contribute to ... -
Optical and Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectroscopy of the SCUBA Galaxy N2-850.4
(2005-05-11)We present optical and near-infrared integral field spectroscopy of the SCUBA galaxy SMM J163650.43+405734.5 (ELAIS N2 850.4) at z=2.385. We combine Ly-alpha and H-alpha emission line maps and velocity structure with high ... -
Optical detection and assessment of algal blooms
(1997-07)Concerns about harmful algal blooms (HABs) have grown in recent years. There is a pressing need for robust, quantitative, and cost-effective methods to detect and characterize algal blooms. Critical applications of these ... -

(2012-07)No abstract available. -
Optically faint counterparts to the ISO-FIRBACK 170 micron population: the discovery of cold, luminous galaxies at high redshift
(2002-07)We present Keck spectroscopy and UKIRT near-IR imaging observations of two 170micron-selected sources from the ISO-FIRBACK survey which have faint counterparts in the optical, and r-K~5. Both sources were expected to lie ... -
