Investigating the potential of thecamoebians (testate amoebae) as bio-indicators of impact of oil sands mining operations on freshwater environments in Northeastern Alberta, Canada
(Brock University, 2010-03-09)
Thecamoebian (testate amoeba) species diversity and assemblages in
reclamation wetlands and lakes in northeastern Alberta respond to chemical and
physical parameters associated with oil sands extraction. Ecosystems more ...
Impact of considering the effects of latent heat on caldera-hosted hydrothermal systems
(Brock University, 2010-10-26)
To investigate the thennal effects of latent heat in hydrothennal settings, an
extension was made to the existing finite-element numerical modelling software,
Aquarius. The latent heat algorithm ...
Flow regime prediction via froude number calculation in a rock-bedded stream
(Brock University, 2010-10-27)
Mathematical predictions of flow conditions along a steep gradient rock bedded stream
are examined. Stream gage discharge data and Manning's Equation are used to calculate
alternative velocities, and subsequently ...
Bioindication of ozone using milkweed plants in Southern Ontario
(Brock University, 2010-03-09)
Ambient (03) ozone concentrations were compared to ozone damage on milkweed
plants to determine if there was a correlation. Eight survey sites of at least 100 plants
each were located within 5 kilometers of Air Quality ...
