Analysing the effect of industrial environmental damage in Canada. Phase 1

positions available: 2 This project aims to quantify/discover environmental damage due to industrial activity in Canada. This will be achieved by combining various datasets from the Canadian government and other certified sources. In this project, we will Look at environmental indicators such as infectious diseases, malformation rates, endocrine and stress responses, genotoxicity, and concentrations of heavy metals, naphthenic acids and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons within amphibians as well as the overall ecosystems. Apply functional data clustering and model-based clustering algorithms. Show the current trajectory of these ecosystems towards recovery and regrowth.
