Motion Processing of Reverse Phi
(University of Waterloo, 2019-11-18)Introduction: When the contrast of the successive images is reversed for a target in an apparent motion stimulus, the perceived direction is reversed, i.e., opposite of phi motion, which is an integration of the sequential ... -
Motivational State Influences the Content of Hippocampal Sequences
(University of Waterloo, 2015-08-18)Hippocampal sharp wave-ripple (SWR) associated sequence activity, commonly referred to as replay, has generally been thought of as mediating the transfer of recent experience into the neocortex. However, a number of ... -
Movement of mature and early life stages of the Grand River walleye (Sander vitreus) population in Lake Erie's eastern basin
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-04)Lake Erie’s commercial and recreational walleye fishery is the largest of the Great Lakes, requiring effective management to maintain a sustainable and complex fishery. Lake Erie’s walleye fishery is composed of multiple ... -
MRI guided brain stimulation without the use of a neuro-navigation system.
(Hindawi Publishing, 2015-01-01)A key issue in the field of noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) is the accurate localization of scalp positions that correspond to targeted cortical areas. The current gold standard is to combine structural and functional ... -
Mueller Matrix Confocal Scanning Laser Polarimetry and Optimal Conditions for Improved Image Quality
(University of Waterloo, 2021-01-26)Alzheimer's disease (AD), a fatal neurodegenerative disorder, is the most common form of senile dementia. Five hundred thousand Canadians are living with dementia, a number predicted to double by 2030. Currently, the most ... -
Multi-decade comparison of groundwater nitrate in the southern Nottawasaga River Watershed
(University of Waterloo, 2016-08-25)The Nottawasaga River Watershed is host to the Lake Algonquin Sand Aquifer (LASA), an unconfined aquifer that consists of glaciolacustrine sands and provides water supply to rural residents, for household use, and for ... -
A multi-isotope approach towards constraining the origin of large-scale Paleoproterozoic B-(Fe) mineralization in NE China
(Elsevier, 2017-05-01)Borate ore deposits occur predominantly in Phanerozoic evaporative sedimentary environments but are scarce in Precambrian strata. However, massive B- and Mg-rich borate deposits are abundant in the Paleoproterozoic strata ... -
Multi-Phase Multi-Component Equilibrium Flash Calculations for CompFlow Bio using Modified Volume-Translated Peng- Robinson Equation of State
(University of Waterloo, 2017-05-24)Numerical modelling of fluid flow and transport in reservoir engineering problems is a challenging task, given variability and uncertainty in the physical properties of rock, the complexities of multi-fluid interaction at ... -
A Multi-Proxy Study of Holocene Atmospheric Circulation Dynamics Recorded in Lake Sediments in Fennoscandia
(University of Waterloo, 2009-01-22)Cellulose-inferred lake water oxygen-isotope records were obtained from five throughflow lakes situated along a north-south transect across Fennoscandia to help develop a better picture of Holocene changes in atmospheric ... -
A Multi-Scale Approach in Mapping the Sedimentological and Hydrostratigraphical Features of Complex Aquifers
(University of Waterloo, 2009-12-22)Accessibility to consistent subsurface hydrostratigraphic information is crucial for the development of robust groundwater flow and contaminant transport models. However, full three-dimensional understanding of the ... -
Multi-Scale Design of Ink Formulations for the 3D Bioprinting of Soft and Elastic Tissue-Mimetic Structures
(University of Waterloo, 2021-04-30)Three-dimensional (3D) engineered tissue and organ models with adjustable biochemical and physical properties are needed in regenerative medicine. As such, 3D printing has emerged as a potential strategy to create more ... -
Multi-stressor impacts on fish energetics and stress response: a comparison between lab and field studies
(University of Waterloo, 2017-08-24)Aquatic organisms are continuously exposed to multiple environmental stressors that work cumulatively and synergistically to alter ecosystems. The objective of this study was to investigate the impacts of multiple stressors ... -
Multi-Targeting Derivatives For Alzheimer’s Disease: Utilization of Quinazoline Ring Scaffolds
(University of Waterloo, 2016-08-30)The complex and multifaceted nature of Alzheimer’s pathology has significantly hindered the discovery and development of viable therapeutics, let alone the cause and initiation of the disease. Over the past century, what ... -
Multi-trophic effects of invasive species suppression in a coastal wetland
(University of Waterloo, 2021-05-25)Wetlands provide essential habitat for hundreds of species, including many that are of conservation concern in Canada. In southern Ontario, two wetland complexes, Long Point Peninsula and Rondeau Provincial Park, represent ... -
Multicopper Laccase Mimicking Nanozymes with Nucleotides as Ligands
(American Chemical Society, 2017-01-18)Using nanomaterials to achieve functional enzyme mimics (nanozymes) is attractive for both applied and fundamental research. Laccases are multicopper oxidases highly important for biotechnology and environmental remediation. ... -
Multifrequency Raman Generation in the Transient Regime
(University of Waterloo, 2006)Two colour pumping was used to investigate the short-pulse technique of Multifrequency Raman Generation (MRG) in the transient regime of Raman scattering. In the course of this study we have demonstrated the ability to ... -
