Endangered Oarisma poweshiek butterfly larval foraging and adult habitat interactions in Manitoba, Canada
(University of Winnipeg, 2021-10-29)
The Poweshiek skipperling (Oarisma poweshiek) is endemic to the tall grass prairie in North America, and is now critically endangered globally. Existing populations are scattered amongst tall grass prairie remnants. However, ...
Accessing Medical Assistance in Death (MAiD): An interpretative phenomenological analysis of experiences with MAiD by family members and providers in Manitoba
(University of Winnipeg, 2021)
This research explored first-hand experiences with medical assistance in death (MAiD) in Manitoba. It aimed to uncover what experiences revealed about the process behind this new end-of-life option in Canada. Specifically, ...
Quantifying biological responses of catch-and-release angling in understudied fish species and practices
(University of Winnipeg, 2021-08-20)
Many catch-and-release angling events involve air exposure and exhaustive exercise that elicit a physiological stress response, and depending on a variety of factors, delayed mortality is a possible outcome. There have ...
Coyotes, cattle, and native prey in southwest Saskatchewan
(University of Winnipeg, 2023-12-10)
Native grasslands are home to a disproportionate share of species at risk, and typically consist of a mosaic of ranchland and protected parkland. Livestock carcasses can attract coyotes and potentially subsidize the coyote ...
Invisibility cloaks, prisons, and a pandemic: Did COVID-19 render the prison invisibility cloak ineffective?
(University of Winnipeg, 2022-07-26)
This thesis acknowledges the importance of examining news media representation of prisons, and more specifically, news media representation of Canadian prisons during the COVID-19 pandemic. A thematic qualitative and ...
Spectroscopic analysis of modern Mg-carbonates from multiple mafic/ultramafic environments with relevance to Jezero crater, Mars
(University of Winnipeg, 2023-04)
The detection and presence of carbonates on Mars and within Jezero crater implies and supports an extensive aqueous history during the Noachian to early Hesperian and can help with the reconstruction of paleoenvironments. ...
Community Energy Planning as a Pathway Towards Reconciliation
(University of Winnipeg, 2023-06)
There is a growing demand for renewable energy production to contribute to achieving emissions reduction targets in the face of global warming. Indigenous communities across Canada are being called to contribute to the ...
Emotion Recognition with Asymmetry Features of EEG Signals
(University of Winnipeg, 2023-08-15)
Currently the study of affective computing (AC) includes a focus on researching emotion regulation and recognition. Recent studies in this field have utilized deep learning architectures to enhance emotion recognition from ...
Cubical homology-based Image Classification - A Comparative Study
(University of Winnipeg, 2021-12-23)
Persistent homology is a powerful tool in topological data analysis (TDA) to compute, study and encode efficiently multi-scale topological features and is being increasingly used in digital image classification. The ...
Spectroscopic Analysis of Ca-Carbonates from Utah Crystal Geyser to Support Carbonate Detection within our Solar System
(University of Winnipeg, 2023-05)
This study investigated the Utah Crystal Geyser, a unique low-temperature, CO2-rich geyser relevant to Mars, icy moons, and asteroids. Samples from the site had a range of textural and color differences; however, they ...
