Can Portable Solar Panels Outperform Batteries in Voltage Production?

Jaden Jeong FSL Year 2 Research Abstract While studies show demand for solar energy is rising, non-renewable energy sources such as batteries are still dominant in today’s market. With a mere efficiency and capacity factor of 15% on top of arising questions regarding their economic viability, it is unclear if solar panels perform well in […]

Can Noah’s Ark Float?

Yumai Bishop Abstract: It is widely disputed that the ark of Noah which appears in the Biblical text would float if it did exist at all. Drawing from a study done by the students of Leicester, a model experiment was conducted in the following fashion: The verifiability of a floating ark was tested in a […]

Testing the Effects of Different Light Wavelengths and Soil Conditions on Sweet Alyssum Germination and Initial Growth Phase

Stephenie Liew, Year 2 Research. Abstract: To meet the rapidly growing global food demand, innovative agricultural methods that increase the efficiency of crop production are highly in need for testing and development. While plant growth is a multi-factoral case and standards vary for different species, theoretically, different light wavelengths should have stimulatory or inhibitory effects […]

How does Exercise affect Working Memory in Adolescents?

Elizabeth Zhou, Year 2 Research. Abstract This study aimed to identify a relationship, if any, between exercise and working memory. Working memory, which may also be referred to as short-term memory, describes the mechanisms that allow someone to recall a series of events or instructions. Three memory tests were used in this study, and each […]

Would the sound intensity level affect the effectiveness of the existing sound-absorbing materials?

Jennifer Zhang, Year 2 Research.      Abstract Investigating the materials to block certain mechanical waves, such as sound waves, is important for communities because noise can lead to physical or mental health problems. My research question is would the sound intensity level affect the effectiveness of the existing sound-absorbing materials. So, four samples had been […]

A Survey of the Winter Littoral invertebrate Community of Diefenbaker Park Pond, North Creek Duck Pond and Boundary Park Pond in Vancouver, British Columbia

Jonah Angelidis-Nordlund Abstract         The taxonomic composition of the littoral zone of three ponds throughout coastal southwestern British Columbia has been analyzed. Surveys of aquatic communities occur, as a general rule, in summer, and so there is a lack of data on the taxonomic composition in winter. Samples were collected with a plankton net and […]

Effectiveness of Antibacterial Toiletry Products on E. Coli Bacteria Growth Inhibition

Nicolas Deporcq-Pomerleau, Year 2 Research. Abstract As sales of products labelled as “antibacterial” rise, discussions about the necessity of said products are also brought up. With the 2016 ban of Triclosan, numerous studies have been conducted to test these products. In this experiment, different household antibacterial products were used on E. Coli samples to see […]

An Investigation of the Interactions Between Microplastics and Biofilms of Lactococcus Lactis

Sean Hong, Year 2 Research. Abstract Biofilms are a common formation for bacteria and algae to grow in and they appear in a multitude of places, from oceans to intestinal tracts. This study aimed to test the effects that microplastics may have on biofilms. This was done by growing samples of Lactococcus lactis in a […]

Testing effectiveness of affordable non-toxic mordants and modifiers on cotton dyed from the skins of yellow onions and skins and pits of avocados

Emily Ng, Year 2 Research. Abstract The ongoing environmental impacts of the textile industry are partially attributed to the exploited use of synthetic dyes. This project attempts to find ways for individuals who are uncertain on how to alleviate large-scale issues within the textile industry to dye fabric from skins of yellow onions and skins […]
