A study of seasonal variations of traffic collisions and their machine learning prediction model for highways in B.C.
Traffic collisions are considered as one of the world’s major public health problems. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 1.3 million people die every year in traffic collisions across the world and a further 20 - 50 million are…
Nonlinear dynamics of plankton ecosystem with impulsive control and environmental fluctuations

Nonlinear dynamics of plankton ecosystem with impulsive control and environmental fluctuations
It is well known that the density of plankton populations always increases and decreases or keeps invariant for a long time, and the variation of plankton density is an important factor influencing the real aquatic environments, why do these…

Experimental and numerical study of local scour around side-by-side bridge piers under ice-covered conditions
Local scour around piers and abutments is one of the main causes of the collapse of many bridges constructed inside rivers. Many researchers have conducted various studies to predict the maximum depth of a scour hole around bridge piers and…

A framework for mapping cumulative threats and its application to Canada
Methods for cumulative threat mapping, such as the human footprint, have been rapidly developing to inform the management of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Here, I perform the first comprehensive literature review establishing what methods are…

The response of subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa (Hook.) Nutt)) growth and resilience to climate change in Northern Rockies, Interior British Columbia, Canada
Understanding forest growth and resilience under global climate change is crucial for forest management, to maintain wood supply for future. In this research, I focused on the response and resilience of subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa (Hook.) Nut))…
