Improved Monitoring of Arctic Sea Ice from Multi-Frequency Radar Remote Sensing

Sea ice is an integral part of the climate system. To obtain hemispheric-scale information about sea ice and the snow cover on top, satellite radar remote sensing is the method of choice. Microwave frequencies are ideally suited to observe sea ice/snow because they are independent of clouds and penetrate the snow and sea ice. However, […]

Validating a drug resistance marker for a globally important ruminant parasite

The barber-pole worm (Haemonchus contortus) is a parasitic worm of sheep, goats and cattle common in both UK and Canada. Infection of the barber-worm causes reduction in animal growth and milk production in addition to general poor health and high risk of death, costing millions from production losses annually in Canada and the UK. Symptoms […]

Investigation of CO2 phase behavior in flowlines for CCS processes

Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) is a practical solution for reducing the overall green house gas (GHG) emission and environmental footprint of the civilization. The CoFlow simulation software developed by CMG is one of the only tools available for predicting the performance of the CCS applications. Generally, there are technical challenges and prediction deficiencies associated […]
