Double standards? An interdisciplinary, comparative study of the impacts of neoliberal conservation on national park systems in Canada and Brazil
In the last 40 years, neoliberalism has become the dominant political economy, guiding not only global economies and politics, but also every other aspect of contemporary life, including the management and planning of national parks and equivalent…

Determining contamination and sources of sediment in response to recent and historical landscape disturbances
Landscape level disturbances occur in nearly every watershed throughout the globe, and as the climate changes, these disturbances will continue to have a significant impact on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Wildfire, timber harvesting, and…

Multiple geochronological approaches to constrain late Quaternary glacial histories in western Canada
My dissertation investigates late Pleistocene and Holocene glacier change in western Canada and is presented in five chapters. In chapter one, I discuss the importance of the cryosphere, the techniques used for reconstructing past glacier behavior,…

Modelling snowpacks in topographically complex terrain during the winter accumulation season, Columbia River Basin, British Columbia, Canada
This dissertation investigates winter accumulation and snow cover change in the Columbia Mountains of British Columbia. In chapter 1, I start with an introduction that describes the study area, and then outlines the objectives and structure of this…

Ionic liquids and a commercial anionic surfactant in demulsifying crude oil in water emulsion
Crude oily wastewaters generate widely in industries and marine oil spill operations. Crude oily wastewaters contain stable oil in water emulsion (O/W), and their treatment has been challenging. Crude oil has toxic compounds for humans and the…
Community multiscale air quality (CMAQ) modeling of the atmospheric quality and pollutant deposition over the Terrace-Kitimat Valley of northwestern British Columbia, Canada

Community multiscale air quality (CMAQ) modeling of the atmospheric quality and pollutant deposition over the Terrace-Kitimat Valley of northwestern British Columbia, Canada
Tracking the effects of air pollution from industries is important for developing management strategies under changing emissions. However, computational tools for air pollution assessment often do not elucidate modeling uncertainty, making it…

Cultivating common ground: the story of food (and the food in stories)
Demystifying the story of food – from seed to store to stomach and how that cycle perpetuates – is a core tenet of food literacy and the central aim of this project. While exposure to environmental issues is critical to developing awareness, young…

Effects of vegetation density, arrangement, and morphology on flow structure under ice-covered condition
Aquatic vegetation appears very often in rivers and floodplains, which significantly affects the flow structure. On the other hand, a common feature of cold regions is the presence of river ice on water surfaces. Ice cover imposes an additional…

Spatiotemporal evolutionary dynamics and biological response of mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in western Canada after range expansion
Global ecosystems are increasingly affected by climate change leading to alterations in expected disturbance regimes. Outbreaks of irruptive insect pests represent some of the most destructive disturbance events possible that occur in the forests of…
