Polynomials Integer-Valued on Maximal Orders in Division Algebras
(2020-04-14)A polynomial f(x) in Q[x] is called integer-valued if f(n) is in Z for all n in Z. Bhargava's p-orderings and p-sequences have been helpful tools in the study of integer-valued polynomials over subsets of Z and arbitrary ... -
Polynomials that are Integer-Valued on the Fibonacci Numbers
(2013-08-13)An integer-valued polynomial is a polynomial with rational coefficients that takes an integer value when evaluated at an integer. The binomial polynomials form a regular basis for the Z-module of all integer-valued ... -
The Polyvalent Ruin: Reconciling Time and Place in Rural Nova Scotia
(2018-04-04)The thesis examines the effects of depopulation in Canso, Nova Scotia and articulates a response to the challenges of building in a socially and economically precarious community. In examining the fluxuations in historical ... -
Population and temporal variations in the vertical migrations of scallop (Placopecten magellanicus) veligers.
(Dalhousie University, 1996) -
Population balance analysis of multi-fluid systems.

POPULATION CONNECTIVITY OF LOPHELIA PERTUSA (=DESMOPHYLLUM PERTUSUM) IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN: PRESENT-DAY CONNECTIONS AND FUTURE PREDICTIONS
(2024-04-11)Population connectivity refers to the exchange of individuals between spatially distinct populations and is an important process governing population dynamics. In species with a larval stage, the combination of processes ... -
Population Dynamics And Persistence Of An Invasive Species In Kelp Bed Ecosystems In The Northwest Atlantic Ocean
(2018-07-16)The bryozoan Membranipora membranacea is an ecologically significant invasive species in the northwest Atlantic where it has facilitated substantial defoliation of kelp beds and dramatically altered rocky subtidal habitats. ... -
Population dynamics and seed feeding tendencies of field crickets (Gryllidae) in wild blueberry fields
(2021-08-31)Gryllus pennsylvanicus (Gryllidae), are post-dispersal seed consumers, common in wild blueberry fields. Laboratory and field studies were conducted during the summer-fall season of 2019 in wild blueberry fields. Field ... -

Population regulation of sea urchins in a rocky subtidal ecosystem
(2015-03-31)Herbivory by sea urchins is an important control of seaweed biomass worldwide. For my doctoral thesis, I investigate biological processes that govern the dynamics of a kelp bed ecosystem on the Atlantic coast of Nova Scotia: ... -
POPULATION STATUS AND SOCIAL STRUCTURE OF NORTHERN BOTTLENOSE WHALES (HYPEROODON AMPULLATUS) ON THE SCOTIAN SHELF
(2013-08-14)I examined the dynamics of an endangered population of northern bottlenose whales over a 23-year period during which its prime habitat, the Gully canyon, was made a Marine Protected Area (MPA). Using mark-recapture techniques ... -
Population Status of Exploited Marine Fish Populations
(2014-12-23)Estimating the population status and trajectory of marine fishes is hampered by limited data and the assumptions needed to augment these data gaps can have broad implications. Poor management decisions based on poor ... -
Population Structure of River Herring (Alewife, Alosa pseudoharengus, and Blueback Herring, Alosa aestivalis) Examined using Neutral Genetic Markers
(2013-04-05)Incorporating molecular genetic data into management decisions would provide fisheries managers with new tools to identify the magnitude of population structure, metapopulation dynamics, at risk populations, and possible ... -

The Population Uptake of Laparoscopic Colon Cancer Surgery in Canada:2004-2014
(2017-06-07)BACKGROUND Although the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic surgery in colon cancer (LAC) have been established, the proportion of colectomies for cancer being performed laparoscopically (use) and uptake (change in use) ... -
Porous Public Space: An Integrated Typology for Urban Housing
(2024-04-05)In response to the erosion of public space in North American cities, this thesis provides a method of integrating public space in urban housing through typology. Arising from a culture of privatism and a planning strategy ...
