Name(s): Creator (cre): McIntyre, Gregory, Thesis advisor (ths): Ponce-Hernandez, Raul, Thesis advisor (ths): Hurley, Richard, Degree committee member (dgc): Hircock, Brian, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>This thesis presents an exploration of the requirements for and development of a software tool to calculate Certified Emission Reduction (CERs) credits for afforestation and reforestation projects conducted under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). We examine the relevant methodologies and tools to determine what is required to create a software package that can support a wide variety… more

Name(s): Creator (cre): Batelaan, Kate, Thesis advisor (ths): Ponce-Hernandez, Raul, Degree committee member (dgc): Eimers, Catherine, Degree committee member (dgc): Sharifi, Mehdi, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>This thesis proposes an agro-ecological zoning (AEZ) methodology of southern Ontario for the characterization and mapping of agro-ecological zones during the historical term (1981-2010), and their shifts into the long-term (2041-2070) projected climate period. Agro-ecological zones are homogenous areas with a unique combination of climate, soil, and landscape features that are important… more

ADAPT: An Automated Decision Support Tool For Adaptation To Climate Change-Driven Floods Predicted From A Multiscale And Multi-Model Framework

Name(s): Creator (cre): Patel, Reesha, Thesis advisor (ths): Ponce-Hernandez, Raul, Degree committee member (dgc): Eimers, Catherine, Degree committee member (dgc): Franklin, Steven, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>This thesis focuses on the design of a modelling framework consisting of loose-coupling of a sequence of spatial and process models and procedures necessary to predict future flood events for the years 2030 and 2050 in Tabasco Mexico. Temperature and precipitation data from the Hadley Centers Coupled Model (HadCM3), for those future years were downscaled using the Statistical Downscaling… more
