As you're studying for exams or completing final projects, Robertson Library has a workspace for you. We will be adjusting our study zones from December 6 to 19.

The entire upper floor, with two exceptions, will become a silent zone. Those who want silent study spaces can continue to use the sunroom, the upstairs study carrels, and the one-person  (320-327 and 331-336). We ask that people using or traveling through the stacks and the upstairs lobby observe silence during exams.

Those who are working on group projects or who prefer some background noise can use the upstairs reading room or any of the spaces on the main floor of the library. The  by groups of 2-8 people. Since the group study rooms are not soundproof, those in the upstairs group study rooms are asked to be mindful of the silent zones nearby.

秀色短视频 honours its rich heritage and traditions by acknowledging members of the campus community who have contributed to its mission in an exceptional way by naming them 鈥淔ounders.鈥� View the list of Founders. The 秀色短视频 is now accepting nominations for the 2024 Founders. 

Recognizing our Founders is an opportunity to honour those who have worked diligently and passionately to build the University into the highly regarded institution of higher education it is today. The award is presented to members of the campus community who have played a direct role in 

• supporting the vision, reputation, and continued success of the University, and/or
• creating a new era of educational, research, and/or service excellence at the University. 

Active faculty and staff members are not eligible for the award. Typically, two to three nominees are selected each year to receive the designation as Founder by a committee established for this purpose. The recipients will be honoured at a Recognition of Founders Ceremony on a date to be confirmed. 

If you wish to submit a nomination for this award, , or email your submission to communications@upei.ca. Emailed nominations should include your name, daytime telephone number, and relationship to the nominee along with the name, address, telephone number, and email address of the person you wish to nominate. Nominations are limited to 500 words in length and should address how the nominee meets the above criteria. Anyone may submit a nomination and past nominations will also be considered.

Completed nominations must be received by Friday, December 6, 2024, at 12:00 pm AT (noon).

Title: 鈥淧opulation Genetics and Return Migration Behaviour of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo Salar) In Prince Edward Island, Canada鈥�

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are declining across their native range where many populations in eastern Canada are threatened or endangered. In order to facilitate population recovery, widespread stocking has occurred throughout the region with over 37 million Atlantic salmon being stocked in Prince Edward Island (PEI) rivers since 1880. There is now evidence that stocking may put local genetic integrity at risk and impacts local adaptation on a population scale. A previous study identified two genetic populations on PEI, one unique to PEI and the other similar to other Gulf of St. Lawrence populations. In Chapter 2 of this thesis, we evaluated 884 individuals from 20 rivers on PEI known to contain Atlantic salmon. A panel of six microsatellites and next-generation sequencing were used followed by Bayesian clustering methods to infer groupings of populations. Generally, we see three major groupings on PEI including northeastern, southern, and northwestern to central draining rivers. Stocking intensity was not a good predictor for genetic variation. There are multiple genetic stocks on PEI that may be reflective of post-glacial colonization and local adaption. Upstream migration varies among and within rivers due to local conditions and genotypic differences. In order to assess migration behaviour, Chapter 3 evaluated the upstream migration of adult Atlantic salmon in North Lake Creek (NLC). Returning Atlantic salmon were caught and tagged with passive integrated transponders (PIT). Arrays were set up on multiple locations on NLC as well as adjacent rivers. Other morphometrics were taken at time of capture and environmental variables measured to determine what other factors influence movement. Individual fish detection was significantly associated with increased flows and decreased temperature. Additionally, time spent in the river averaged (SEM,n) 27.6 days (7.18, 10), meaning they stay in the river for a short period of time to spawn and leave to over-winter in the estuary or back to the ocean. The upstream migration of returning Atlantic salmon is complex and still being evaluated and understood however, it is important to evaluate these variances in light of genetic differences since it has been shown to play a role in timing.

Everyone is welcome.
