An integrative approach to white-tailed deer management in Nova Scotia: Policy review and implementation

The objective of the proposed research is to develop a statistical analysis framework that provides a reliable profile of Nova Scotia’s white-tailed deer population based on deer related data sources. This project is to support improvements to deer management in Nova Scotia. Improved management and conservation of Nova Scotia’s most important big game species supports wildlife habitat conservation by NS DNR, but is also of importance to the forestry industry, and stakeholders such as the NS Federation of Anglers and Hunters, and the Fur Institute of Canada. Furthermore, the population monitoring framework developed will have important implications for management of other exploited large mammal populations.

Potential of Adapting the Novel Hydrothermal Carbonization Process as a Suitable Waste to Energy Technology

This Mitacs project focuses on evaluating the potential of adapting the novel Hydrothermal Carbonization technology as a suitable waste-to-energy (WtE) technology for various regions. A review of relevant literature has revealed that there is little to no research or comparative study conducted to identify the optimal conditions for energy recovery using the new Hydrothermal Carbonization (HTC) for both food and animal manure combined feed to that of agricultural waste (maize stalk and cobbs). To the best of my knowledge, this research will be novel in this area of study. It will serve as a guiding document, thereby providing additional literature for community, national and international stakeholders with similar types of waste.

Propagating Instrumental Systematics to Cosmological Analysis Pipeline for HIRAX

This research sheds light on the mysterious force of dark energy, driving the universe’s accelerated expansion, and reveals how cosmic structures evolve. Since hydrogen makes up most of the universe, its natural radiation at radio wavelengths allows us to map large volumes of space and track the distribution of matter. The Hydrogen Intensity and Real-time Analysis eXperiment (HIRAX) is a radio telescope array positioned to detect faint hydrogen signals and study the universe’s expansion across different cosmic periods. Through the Mitacs Globalink Research project, I aim to assess the recovery of the desired hydrogen signal and understanding how the instrumental imperfections impact HIRAX’s capacity to make accurate observations. By measuring tiny surface deformations in telescope dishes through precise metrology techniques, followed by simulations to assess how these deformations affect the telescope’s observational accuracy, I aim to mitigate these potential sources of error, thus preserving the quality of HIRAX’s scientific data. Through this project, both the participating institutions will work closely to develop/improve data analysis pipelines and assess the impact of dish surface deformations on cosmological observations. This collaboration will provide a platform for knowledge exchange between the participating institutions, fostering further research opportunities in cosmology and radio instrumentation beyond HIRAX.

Evaluation of the Corrosion Tendency of a Novel of 2-amino 2-methyl propanol (AMP) and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl) pyrrolidine (1-(2-HE) PRLD) Blend used for CO2 Capture from Industrial Exhaust Gases in a Commercial CO2 Capture Plant

This projects aims to evaluate the corrosion rate of carbon steel in a 2:2 molar ratio (4M total molar concentration) of AMP: 1-(2-HE) PRLD environment as a function of absorber/desorber temperature, O2 concentration in the flue gas, and CO2 loading. This evaluation is to ensure that this novel amine blend can be used reliably with chemical stability for CO2 capture from industrial exhaust gases in a commercial CO2 capture plant.
In order to achieve the above objectives, the following specific sub objectives have been carved out.
1. To determine the effect of temperature on the corrosion rate of carbon steel with 2:2 AMP-PRLD
2. To determine the effect of O2 concentration in flue gas on the corrosion rate of carbon steel with 2:2 AMP-PRLD.
3. To determine the effect of CO2 loading in the amine solution on the corrosion rate of carbon steel with 2:2 AMP-PRLD.
4. To model the effect of temperature, O2 concentration in flue gas, and CO2 loading on the corrosion rate of carbon steel with 2:2 AMP-PRLD.
This research will address a critical challenge that can significantly impact the long-term viability of CO2 capture plants. Ultimately, this project will contribute to Canada’s broader goal of achieving net-zero emissions and promoting a sustainable energy future.

Détermination des sites de fixation des éléments traces métalliques dans les sédiments de lac

L’approche conventionnelle de l’interprétation des résultats de géochimie d’exploration implique généralement des méthodes statistiques variablement sophistiquées. La faible capacité prédictive de la méthode est notoire. De plus, la littérature demeure sans réponse quant aux sites de fixation préférentiels des métaux dans les sédiments de lac. Dans le but d’éventuellement relier la source aux enrichissements secondaires, IOS Services Géoscientifiques Inc (entreprise partenaire) aimerait déterminer les sites de fixation préférentiels des métaux dans les sédiments de lac. La microscopie à balayage électronique sera utilisée pour cartographier les échantillons et observer où vont se fixer les différents éléments. Les échantillons utilisés ont déjà été testés par différentes méthodes. Le projet sera réalisé sur des échantillons dont les concentrations en éléments sont considérées comme anomales. Selon les résultats de l’étude, l’entreprise pourra développer un procédé d’analyse journalière pour déterminer le partitionnement des métaux lorsqu’ils sont présents en proportion anormal dans l’environnement
