Carbon dioxide is considered one of the main greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The gas causes huge environmental and social negative impacts. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce gas emissions to benefit the communities and societies. The project focuses on CO2 capture by amine solutions and solid materials. Besides the laboratory measurements, the work continues […]

Streams and rivers benefit people and wildlife. Climate change has caused streams and rivers in British Columbia to become drier. Man-made dams retain water but are difficult to maintain. North American beaver (Castor canadensis) build dams that retain water, and quickly repair damage, which help solve man-made dam challenges. Ducks Unlimited Canada wants to use […]

Managing a consistent plant environment is critical to maximizing yield and quality of plant produced in a controlled environment agricultural (CEA) systems. The environmental conditions directly impact plant production which in turn impact plant product quality and marketability. The quality of the produced plant (leafy greens, or other plants) are influenced by both the environment […]

This project is a collaborative endeavour between Rocscience Inc. and Dr. Mitri’s research group at McGill University. Rocscience is a leading firm specializing in the development of geotechnical engineering software. The project aims to validate the discrete fracture network modelling (DFN) approach as a tool for rock slope stability design/ analysis in civil and mining […]

“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

Canada currently employs patterned non-invasive brain stimulation techniques in the treatment of conditions such as depression and anxiety. The goal of this study will aim to determine whether there is a more effective way to deliver brain stimulation compared to traditional methods. We will compare a new controlled TMS compared to the traditional TMS hardware. […]

The proposed research project “Cloud based hybrid low-cost appliance control and monitor system” is an appliance automation system consisting of an arrangement of different channels of communication. The main idea behind the proposed work is to provide a real time control and monitoring for industrial appliances located in workplaces where internet accessibility is not immediate. […]

The Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW, Orcinus orca) population is assessed at 75 individuals, and significant threats include high levels of endocrine disrupting contaminants, alongside other anthropogenic threats. Studies have painted a partial picture of the contaminants of concern in the SRKW food web. For example, preliminary studies of chinook salmon suggest that some resident […]

Access to specialist care, especially in rural and remote locations, is a growing challenge in Alberta. Patients with conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetes, and macular edema must travel to large urban centres for assessment by retinal specialist ophthalmologists. Assessment typically requires OCT imaging, which is now broadly available through optometrist offices across the […]

This study will conduct a marine multi-stakeholder usage assessment for commercial, recreational and cultural purposes for potential tidal energy developments in Campbell River, BC. Tidal energy harnesses the daily movements of tides through confined waterways to produce electrical energy. Given that Campbell River is a busy multi-use marine port, planning estimates must be done in […]
