Exploring the energetic and behavioural changes associated with the immune response in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(University of Waterloo, 2019-09-23)With the world’s population continuously increasing, humanity constantly needs to figure out ways to increase food production to meet growing demands. One way to increase food production that has had exponential growth in ... -
Impacts of wastewater treatment plant effluent on energetics and stress response of rainbow darter (Etheostoma caeruleum) in the Grand River watershed
(Elsevier, 2018-10)The objective of this study was to assess the effects of municipal wastewater treatment plant effluent on the energetics and stress response of rainbow darter (Etheostoma caeruleum). Male and female rainbow darter were ... -
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 ... -
The physiological ecology of preparing for and recovering from hibernation in temperate insectivorous bats
(University of Waterloo, 2023-01-12)Temperate insectivorous bats that hibernate must both prepare for and recover from hibernation during times of the year with low resource abundance and low ambient temperatures, resulting in energetic bottlenecks in both ... -
The Structures and Energetics of Strongly-Bound Gaseous Clusters of Protonated Biomolecules with Alcohols
(University of Waterloo, 2008-08-26)A growing interest in the strengths of several interactions that play important structural roles in biochemical systems has been building over the past couple decades. The binding energies and entropies of formation of the ...
