this thesis attempts to study the representations of the third-world intellectuals in three fictional works by the british-educated trinidadian nobel-winner v. s. naipaul: the mimic men, a bend in the river, and magic seeds. the first one recounts the story of ralph singh’s sense of alienation, his experiences as a colonial politician, and his struggle to give order to his disorderly world thro...
15 صفحه اولOn the Changing Contribution of Snow to the Hydrology of the Fraser River Basin, Canada
This paper presents an application of the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model to the Fraser River basin (FRB) of British Columbia (BC), Canada, over the latter half of the twentieth century. The Fraser River is the longest waterway in BC and supports the world’s most abundant Pacific Ocean salmon populations. Previous modeling and observational studies have demonstrated that the FRB is a...
متن کاملNear-surface shear wave reflection surveys in the Fraser River delta, B.C., Canada
Shallow shear wave reflection surveys using high frequency vibroseis techniques provides information about the Tertiary bedrock surface and Pleistocene sediments on the Fraser River delta, in B.C., Canada. Besides the clear advantage of shear wave profiling in this shallow gas environment, the added resolution potential and ability to measure the shear wave velocity field enhances the fusion of...
متن کاملFactors influencing farmland habitat use by shorebirds wintering in the Fraser River Delta, Canada
Like many other coastal regions of the world, open-soil agricultural lands in the Fraser River Delta provide roosting and feeding habitat for non-breeding shorebirds that supplements intertidal habitat. Focusing on dunlin (Calidris alpina pacifica), black-bellied plover (Pluvialis squatorola), killdeer (Charadrius vociferus), and their avian predators (raptors), diurnal and nocturnal high tide ...
متن کاملThe Lower Paraguay river-floodplain habitats in the context of the Fluvial Hydrosystem Approach
We report herein the first description of the physical structure of the aquatic habitats of the Lower Paraguay River along 390 km from Asunción city (Paraguay) to the confluence with the Paraná River. The hierarchical ordination of the Fluvial Hydrosystem Approach (FHA) allowed us to classify the Lower Paraguay as a meandering functional sector where five functional sets were identified: (a) ma...
