Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Engineer: Journal of the Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka, 2012 This study investigated how bricks and mortar could be used in a chaotic environment where brick and joints sizes could be varied to achieve better outcomes (such as cost minimisation) through an understanding of mortar consumption characteristics of brickwork. This was made possible by integrating three innovative concepts, viz.
