Abstract: <p>This thesis examines how dissolved organic matter quantity and quality and nutrients influence the flux potential of greenhouse gases (GHG) from sediments collected from streams across southern Ontario as well as Lake Erie. Sediments were collected and incubated in a laboratory setting where headspace gases and interstitial waters were analyzed. Results demonstrated that nutrients (… more

Name(s): Creator (cre): Anderson, Spencer, Thesis advisor (ths): Shafer, Aaron BA, Degree committee member (dgc): Northrup, Joseph M, Degree committee member (dgc): Xenopoulos, Marguerite A, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
Abstract: <p>Understanding the complex genomic architecture underlying quantitative traits can provide valuable insight for the conservation and management of wildlife. Despite improvements in sequencing technologies, few empirical studies have identified quantitative trait loci (QTL) via whole genome sequencing in free-ranging mammal populations outside a few well-studied systems. This thesis uses… more
