Indoor positioning systems have been used as a supplement to provide positioning in settings where GPS does not function. However, the accuracy of calculated results varies among techniques and algorithms used; system ...

The purpose of this thesis is to document and analyse the development of the 1985 Clyde River - Broughton Island Memorandum of Understanding on Polar Bears. Based on a population estimate of 400 to 600 polar bears on ...

A drainage basin’s runoff response can be determined by the connectivity of generated runoff to the stream network and the connectivity of the downstream stream network. The connectivity of a drainage basin modulates its ...

Currently the Saskatchewan Watershed Authority (SWA) leads much of the planning and management of the province's water resources with the goal to ensure access to safe drinking water sources and reliable water supplies. ...

Soil moisture and ground thaw state are both indicative of a hillslope’s ability to transfer water. In cold regions in particular, it is widely known that the wetness of surface soils and depth of ground thaw are important ...

The Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) of North American contains millions of wetlands in shallow depressions that provide important hydrological and ecological functions. To assess and model these functions it is important to ...

The hydrological model WATFLOOD and a volume-area scaling relationship are applied to estimate glacier wastage and seasonal Melt contribution to the headwaters of the North and South Saskatchewan Rivers on the eastern ...

Modelling the energy exchange between the snowpack and the atmosphere is critical for many hydrological applications. Of the terms present in the snow energy balance, the turbulent fluxes of sensible and latent heat are ...

The intra-basin variability of snowmelt and meltwater runoff hydrology in an 8 km2 subarctic alpine tundra catchment was examined for the 2003 melt period. The catchment, Granger Creek, is within the Wolf Creek Research ...

The study proposes an application of Talen’s (2003) methodological framework for assessing neighbourhood-level (i.e., non-motorised mode) accessibility, and offers recommendations for improving non-motorized transportation ...
