This decommissioned ERA site remains active temporarily to support our final migration steps to https://ualberta.scholaris.ca, ERA's new home. All new collections and items, including Spring 2025 theses, are at that site. For assistance, please contact erahelp@ualberta.ca.
Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Distribution of Miocene deep-water reservoirs, and factors controlling their deposition and reservoir quality, southern Gulf of Mexico.
DownloadFall 2018
The factors controlling the distribution, geometry, and quality of the Miocene reservoirs, in an area located in the southern Gulf of Mexico (in the offshore part of the Tabasco State) were attained through detailed stratigraphic and facies analyses combined with seismic facies and 3D...

High-resolution sequence stratigraphy in a Mesoproterozoic intracratonic sag basin, the Tombador Formation, Chapada Diamantina Basin, Brazil
DownloadFall 2015
Studies applying sequence stratigraphy to the Precambrian sedimentary record have been limited and have focused on low-resolution applications due to problems in preservation, deformation/metamorphism, and diagenesis. However, higher-resolution studies are possible where geometry, facies...

SEDIMENTOLOGICAL AND ICHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE LATE CARBONIFEROUS–MIDDLE PERMIAN SUCCESSION IN THE SUBSURFACE OF CENTRAL SAUDI ARABIA
DownloadFall 2023
The Late Carboniferous–Middle Permian Unayzah Group is a widespread sand-rich stratigraphic unit with equivalent deposits across the subsurface of the Arabian Peninsula. Historically, sediment deposition for this interval in the subsurface of Saudi Arabia has been ascribed to continental settings...

Seismic Stratigraphy and Geomorphology of the Exmouth Plateau, North-Western Shelf, Australia
DownloadFall 2011
The Exmouth Plateau is a part of the Northern Carnarvon Basin, offshore northwest Australia. It evolved from a pre-rift in the late Paleozoic, experiencing many tectonic activities, from syn-rift sub-basins in the Mesozoic to a passive margin in the Cenozoic. The study area, located within the...

THE ROLE OF TECTONISM IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRATIGRAPHIC SURFACES IN THE COLOMBIAN LLANOS FORELAND BASIN
DownloadFall 2021
Carvajal Torres, Juan Sebastian
During the Campanian-Paleogene, a regional basin extended from the Magdalena Valley in the west to the Llanos Basin in the east. Subsequently, the Llanos Basin was separated from the Magdalena Valley and became an independent depocenter from the Oligocene to the present. This study combines the...
