Chemical characterization of construction materials and solute transport in peat from the Nikanotee Fen watershed at the Athabasca oil sands region, Alberta, Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2017-02-22)Overburden and tailings materials from oil sands production were used as construction materials as part of a novel attempt to create a self-sustaining, peat accumulating fen-upland ecosystem. To evaluate the potential for ... -
Improving estimates of net ecosystem CO2 exchange between the Arctic land surface and the atmosphere
(University of Waterloo, 2013-05-24)Feedbacks between the climate system and the high-latitude carbon cycle will substantially influence the intensity of future climate change. It is therefore crucial that the net ecosystem exchange of CO2 (NEE) between ... -
Malaria in the Amazon: An Agent-Based Approach to Epidemiological Modeling of Coupled Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2009-08-21)The epidemiology of malaria considers a complex set of local interactions amongst host, vector, and environment. A history of reemergence, epidemic transition, and ensuing endemic transmission in Iquitos, Peru reveals an ... -
Multiscale modelling of snow depth over an agricultural field in a small catchement in southern ontario, canada.
