H-matrix preconditioning for the time-harmonic electromagnetic discontinuous Galerkin method
(2018-08)Hierarchical matrices, or H-matrices are an error-controllable framework that permit efficient inversion and decomposition of matrices arising in time-harmonic electromagnetics applications. This work evaluates the ... -
The h-p version of the finite element method in three dimensions
(2012-11-21)In the framework of the Jacobi-weighted Besov and Sobolev spaces, we analyze the approximation to singular and smooth functions. We construct stable and compatible polynomial extensions from triangular and square faces to ... -
H1 antihistamines: current status and future directions
(2008-09-15)Abstract In this review, we compare and contrast the clinical pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of first-generation H1 antihistamines and second-generation H1 antihistamines. First-generation H1 antihistamines cross the ... -
Habit: theory, measurement, and the role in organisational behaviour
(2018)Many daily behaviours, emotions, and thoughts are driven by habits. While the existing research on people at work has provided a detailed account for how deliberation affects decisions, choices, and responses, there is ... -
Habitat associations of five forest owl species in the Manitoba Escarpment with special consideration to forest fragmentation and slope
(2001-05-01)This study describes an inferred use versus availability analysis for five forest owl species with respect to forest stand characteristics, fragmentation and slope. Locations for Great Horned Owls ('Bubo virginianus'), ... -
Habitat associations of Pembina Valley birds, responses to grazing
(2000-08-01)This study provided information on the species composition of the riparian bird community, evaluated the impact of grazing on avian species richness and abundance, and assessed avian habitat relationships relative to grazing ... -
Habitat coupling in lake ecosystems
(OIKOS, 2002-03-12)Lakes are complex ecosystems composed of distinct habitats coupled by biological, physical and chemical processes. While the ecological and evolutionary characteristics of aquatic organisms reflect habitat coupling in ... -
Habitat selection by songbirds in Manitoba's tall-grass prairie: a multi-scale analysis
(2010-08-24)Avian point counts were conducted in tall-grass prairie fragments and adjacent grassland and agricultural matrix habitat in southern Manitoba. Bird density/abundance was compared between habitat types, while variables ... -
Habitat selection by the Slate Island boreal woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou).
(2015)The Slate Islands caribou (Rangifer tarandis caribou) is an insular population which has experienced several population crashes and has been described as likely to succumb to extirpation. While a great deal of research has ... -
Habitat suitability of the yellow rail in south-central Manitoba
(2012-09-21)Little is known about the distribution and habitat suitability of yellow rails (Coturnicops noveboracensis) throughout their breeding range. Yellow rail and vegetation surveys were conducted at 80 wetlands in south-central ... -
Habitat use and abundance of the common garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis, at the northern limit of its range in Manitoba
(2008)The common garter snake (Thamnophis sirtalis) is a wide-ranging species that reaches the northern limit of its range in central Manitoba. Although Thamnophis sirtalis (and especially the subspecies parietalis) has been the ... -
Habitat use of white-tailed deer in relation to natural and anthropogenic landscape variables in the Clear Lake area of Riding Mountain National Park, Manitoba, Canada
(2016)The habitat use of thirteen female and four male GPS collared white-tailed deer, captured in the Clear Lake area of Riding Mountain National Park between 2012 and 2014, was examined. Range sizes were smallest during the ... -
Habitat use, dispersal and survivorship of juvenile Peregrine Falcons (Falco peregrinus) from Manitoba
(2017)Satellite tracking technology was used to acquire previously unavailable data relating to habitat use, dispersal and survivorship of juvenile Peregrine Falcons, a species currently designated as “Endangered” in Manitoba. ... -
Habitus and ‘class’ and gender disparities in academic achievement: a structure-disposition-practice model
(2010-09-09)This dissertation contributes to our understanding of the ‘class’ and gender dimensions of educational inequality. In doing this, it uses a “structure-disposition-practice” model that is rooted in Bourdieu’s theory of ... -
