L’écologie de la reproduction de l’épinette noire dans les forêts nordique est peu compris. En particulier, il existe un manque général de données sur la production et la maturation des cônes / graines en fonction des variables climatiques, des caractéristiques abiotiques et des caractéristiques biotiques. Aucune étude n’existe actuellement pour quantifier ces différences sur un […]

This work aims to take the academic research one step further to customize recommendations based on academic research findings on the identification and valuation of non-technical risks. It aims to improve the operationalization of the corporate strategy in the investment decision criteria guideline that involves both risks to the projects and risks to the people.

Water is vital for life; it is a resource we interact with daily and rely on implicitly. Our reliance on water resources is why water pollution is a global concern. One risk to water quality is elevated levels of toxic trace metals. While metals occur naturally in aquatic environments, human activities can increase natural concentrations […]

L’experience sera conduite sous tunnels a la Ferme des Fraises de rile d’Orleans inc. Les fralsiers a jour neutre (IN) seron! plantes en pots. Les pots seront disposes sur des dalles suspendues aux structures des tunnels. Des espaces d’environ 1,3 m entre les rangs permettront Ie passage de la rnacl1inerie et les operations culturales. Un […]

Ce projet de stage s’inscrit dans un projet de recherche plus vaste ayant pour objectif de compléter, pour les érablières de l’Estrie (Québec), l’étalonnage du modèle de simulation de la dynamique forestière SORTIE-ND. Ce dernier est un modèle spatialement explicite qui sera utilisé pour évaluer et comparer l’effet d’un large éventail de traitements sylvicoles susceptibles […]

Ayant l’intention de promouvoir un nouveau modèle économique centré sur la coopération, l’innovation continue et la protection de l’environnement, je propose à l’industrie brassicole de former des partenariats de recherches dans le but de réaliser des projets de R&D en efficacité énergétique. C’est dans cette optique que j’ai rencontré M. Pierre-Paul Carpentier, cofondateur de la […]

The Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS) has been mapping Canada’s coastline since 2017 using an airborne remote sensing technology called LIDAR. LIDAR technology uses lasers to generate high resolution maps of the topography of the land and the seabed bathymetry. The objective of this project is to use the LIDAR data to improve understanding of marine […]

A decrease in ice cover in the Arctic ocean is allowing for increases in vessel traffic and noise in this previously undisturbed environment. The remoteness and reduction of species richness poses a challenge when trying to monitor Arctic ocean wildlife, but recent technological advances in animal tagging have supplied further opportunities for surveillance of Arctic […]

Tropical dry forests(TDFs), comprising of 42% tropical forests worldwide, are considered as the first frontiers for economic development in Latin America because TDFs not only provide a source of agricultural and urban land but also a source of goods and ecosystem services for people who live around them. Due to the driving force for economic […]

In Martian history, asteroids have continuously collided with Mars. The catastrophic activity (impact) can produce high pressure, and finally affected properties of minerals in meteorites, which means the minerals were shocked. The force of impact for ejecting Martian meteorites can be 60 GPa, about 600,000 times of the atmosphere pressure on Earth surface. When the […]

The Mottled Duskywing is an endangered butterfly species in Canada. In order to reverse the decline of this species, research is required to fill in knowledge gaps regarding the species biology and life history. There are currently no data available on population size, survival rates of adult or juvenile life stages, dispersal, or optimal habitat […]

A major challenge in the field of synthetic organic chemistry consists in the formation of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds. These types of bonds occur frequently in molecules found in nature, and often under the form of heterocycles. The design of new reactions which provide access to both known and unknown heterocyclic motifs in a rapid […]
