Phytochemicals are secondary metabolites that offer biological activity to prevent degeneration of different non-communicable diseases such as type-2 diabetes (Stroke), cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Indigenous food crops are rich source of phytochemicals such as phenolic acids and flavonoids which have demonstrated some biological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammation and anti-bacterial effect. This study aims to screen […]

This phase will concentrate on providing a means of transferring data from the Polar Data Catalogue in a CCADI approved format. This will include analysis of the Polar Data Catalogue data and comparison to CCADI’s standards, and creating a Extract Load Transform (ETL) processes to transfer the data to the Arctic Research Foundation platform.

Presently the electrical grids of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta are operated with limited energy exchange between them. Connecting the three provinces together with a “Western Canada Grid (WCG)” could yield significant advantages. Connection with HVDC transmission is attractive due to its control flexibility and stability. This project will investigate optimum converter types and control methods […]

Development of high yielding winter wheat cultivars, resistant or tolerant to different stresses, with good agronomic and quality characteristics, is important to wheat growers and industry.
