This study focuses on enhancing aviation safety by detecting and analyzing runway incursions—unauthorized entries of aircraft, vehicles, or personnel onto active runways—using high-resolution ADS-B data from Flightradar24 (FR24). Despite existing protocols, such incursions remain a significant threat to air traffic operations. The project aims to develop and validate algorithms capable of identifying critical events, such […]

This project seeks to develop a non-invasive method, which does not require direct wildlife capture and handling, for monitoring the endangered little brown myotis and a co-occurring species, Yuma myotis, at shared summer maternity roost sites in western North America. A method is urgently needed so that potential species-specific impacts to these two bats from […]

The parental rights movement, which gained traction in the 1930s (largely in reaction to child labour reforms), has long resisted progressive reform. By the 1990s, the movement found renewed momentum amid heated debates over charter schools, further embedding the rhetoric of government overreach, privatization, and ethnonationalism into its public messaging4. Although considerable scholarship was produced […]

L’objectif général de la recherche consistera à évaluer l’efficacité du programme d’intervention résidentielle – mérule sur l’accessibilité des propriétaires québécois confrontés à cette problématique.
