Abstract:
... An increasing body of scientific evidence supports the idea that many avian species are changing their migratory behavior as a result of climate change, land-use change, or both. We assessed Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) population trends in 2 parts of the annual cycle (fall migration and winter) to better understand regional population trends and their relationship to changes in migration. ...

Abstract:
... Numerical models encompassing source zones and receptors, based on representative conceptual models and accounting for aquifer heterogeneity, are needed to understand contaminant migration and fate; however, aquifer characterization seldom provides the necessary data. This study aimed to develop a workflow for field characterization and data integration, which could: (1) be adapted to the definiti ...

Abstract:
... Little is currently known about the population dynamics of basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus) at regional or local scales. Using a long-term sighting database (1994–2012) and photo-identification of individuals, we studied the seasonal and inter-annual patterns in basking shark occurrence and site fidelity in the Bay of Fundy, Canada. Zero-inflated negative binomial models quantified spatial, tem ...

Abstract:
... To compare legacy and emerging flame retardant (FR) contamination in Canadian marine and freshwater ecosystems, eggs of four gull species (Laridae) were collected from 26 colonies spanning Pacific to Atlantic Canada, including in the Great Lakes basin. Fourteen polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) congeners and 20 non-PBDE FRs were analyzed, but BDE-47, -99, -100, -153, -154 and -209, hexabromocyc ...

Abstract:
... Cold (room temperature) and hot water (70–80°C) extraction methods have been used to assess the availability of organic matter and N in soil; however, the influence of temperature on their extractability is largely unknown. Twenty-one mineral soils from New Zealand and eastern Canada were incubated for 16 h in water (1:6 soil/water ratio) at temperatures ranging from 20 to 80°C. After centrifugati ...

Genetic resistance represents a safe, economical and ecological method for protecting plants, growers and the health of consumers. Major diseases of wheat on the Canadian Prairies are common bunt, rusts (leaf, stem and stripe) and ...

Abstract:
... To test the hypothesis that the structure of zooplankton communities of acidified, fish—free lakes can be regulated by predation from larval Chaoborus, the rates of production of the principal prey species of Chaoborus in Swan Lake, a small, fish—less, acid lake near Sudbury, Canada, were compared with their estimated rates of consumption by Chaoborus. The production of Bosmina longirostris, the m ...

Abstract:
... Our laboratory has developed a technique to reconstruct in vitro tissue from human cells using the self-assembly tissue-engineering method, which utilizes the ability of fibroblasts to deposit the matrix they secrete. The time necessary for tissue construction, several weeks, is a drawback for many clinical uses. We hypothesized that the addition of laminaran can increase the deposition of matrix, ...

However, seaweeds are well recognized for their richness in several nutrients such as fiber, protein and minerals. But what is limiting seaweed and seaweed derived ingredients utilization in home cooking? Finding fresh seaweeds within inland cities is one ...

Abstract:
... Seismic microzonation is an important step in seismic risk and loss studies for densely populated urban regions. Ambient noise studies using H/V measurements to determine the fundamental site period (FSP) can be an inexpensive and efficient method to map site effects for a microzonation study. Ambient noise studies are particularly effective in high impedance contrast environments like Boston, Mas ...
