Chronological Events Natural Heritage Values 2000-2012 Cultural Heritage Values Recreational Values Thames River Integrity Guidelines Executive Summary Executive Summary The Thames River nomination for inclusion in the Canadian Heritage Rivers System (CHRS) was accepted by the CHRS Board in 1997. The nomination document was produced by the Thames River Coordinating Committee, a volunteer group of individuals and agency representatives, supported by the Upper Thames River Conservation Authority (UTRCA) and Lower Thames Valley Conservation Authority (LTVCA). The Thames River and its watershed were nominated on the basis of their significant human heritage features and recreational values. Although the Thames River possesses an outstanding natural heritage which contributes to its human heritage and recreational values, CHRS integrity guidelines precluded nomination of the Thames based on natural heritage values because of the presence of impoundments.

  • Dissertation Investigations of Nitrogen Oxide Plasmas
    DISSERTATION INVESTIGATIONS OF NITROGEN OXIDE PLASMAS: FUNDAMENTAL CHEMISTRY AND SURFACE REACTIVITY AND MONITORING STUDENT PERCEPTIONS IN A GENERAL CHEMISTRY RECITATION Submitted by Joshua M. Blechle Department of Chemistry In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2016 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Ellen R. Fisher Nancy E. Levinger Charles S. Henry Christopher R. Weinberger Copyright by Joshua M. Blechle 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT INVESTIGATIONS OF NITROGEN OXIDE PLASMAS: FUNDAMENTAL CHEMISTRY AND SURFACE REACTIVITY AND MONITORING STUDENT PERCEPTIONS IN A GENERAL CHEMISTRY RECITATION Part I of this dissertation focuses on investigations of nitrogen oxide plasma systems. With increasing concerns over the environmental presence of NxOy species, there is growing interest in utilizing plasma-assisted conversion techniques. Advances, however, have been limited because of the lack of knowledge regarding the fundamental chemistry of these plasma systems. Understanding the kinetics and thermodynamics of processes in these systems is vital to realizing their potential in a range of applications. Unraveling the complex chemical nature of these systems, however, presents numerous challenges. As such, this work serves as a foundational step in the diagnostics and assessment of these NxOy plasmas. The partitioning of energy within the plasma system is essential to unraveling these complications as it provides insight into both gas and surface reactivity. To obtain this information, techniques such as optical emission spectroscopy (OES), broadband absorption spectroscopy (BAS), and laser induced fluorescence (LIF) were utilized to determine species energetics (vibrational, rotational, translational temperatures). These temperature data provide mechanistic insight and establish the relationships between system parameters and energetic outcomes.

  • Interactions of the Enteric Nervous System with the Gut Microbiome in the Neuroligin-3 R451C Mouse Model of Autism
    Interactions of the enteric nervous system with the gut microbiome in the neuroligin-3R451C mouse model of autism M.H.M. Madusani Herath Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2020 Department of Physiology The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT Autism patients are four times more likely to be hospitalized due to gastrointestinal (GI) dysfunction compared to the general public. However, the exact cause of GI dysfunction in individuals with autism is currently unknown. Genetic predisposition to autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been highlighted in various studies and mutations in genes that affect nervous system function can drive both behavioural abnormalities and GI dysfunction in autism. Neuroligin-3 (NLGN3) is a postsynaptic membrane protein and the R451C missense mutation in the NLGN3 gene is associated with ASD. Recent studies revealed that the NLGN3 R451C mutation induces GI dysfunction in autism patients as well as in mice but, the cellular localization and the effects of this mutation on NLGN3 production in the enteric nervous system (ENS) have not been reported to date. The intestinal mucosal barrier is the interface separating the external environment from the interior of the body. Mucosal barrier functions are directly regulated by the enteric nervous system. Therefore, ENS dysfunction can induce mucosal barrier impairments. An impaired intestinal barrier has been reported in autism patients, but neurally-mediated barrier dysfunctions have not been assessed in transgenic autism mouse models with an altered nervous system. The intestinal mucus layer is the outermost layer of the mucosa which separates the intestinal microbiota from the intestinal epithelium.
