Modelling the impacts of climate change on blue and green water interchange, crop yields, and virtual water trade under drought and post-drought conditions in Nelson River Basin
DownloadFall 2023
The unfolding climate change crisis poses a growing challenge to water and food security, and yet the reliability of the global breadbaskets and their relation with water resources in the future is poorly understood. The global breadbaskets are defined as key production regions for food grains...

The Estimation of Buttresses Volume and Classification of Leaf, Wood, and Lianas from Terrestrial Laser Scanning data
DownloadSpring 2023
Forests account for one third of land area, and two third of global photosynthesis. The better we know about forests, the better decisions we can make on forest management and carbon cycle modeling. During the last decades, we see the development in remote sensing techniques for forest...

Sedimentological, Ichnological, and Architectural Characteristics of Geobodies in a Fluvial to Estuary Setting: the McMurray Formation in the Christina River area, NE Alberta, Canada
DownloadSpring 2023
The Lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation is the primary host of the crude bitumen reserves in the Athabasca Oils Sand Region. The regionally extensive meander belts associated with estuary point bars have been recognized as the primary reservoir facies in the McMurray Formation. It is widely...

Sulfur Speciation and Curation Considerations for the Carbonaceous Chondrite Tagish Lake and Other Meteorites
DownloadSpring 2023
Carbonaceous chondrites contain significant abundances of sulfur components such as sulfide, sulfate, elemental sulfur (S0), and organosulfur compounds. These are significant because questions remain regarding the role of S in the origin of life. Chondrites and all other meteorites are out of...

Shifts in organic matter character and microbial community dynamics from glacier headwaters to downstream rivers in the Canadian Rocky Mountains
DownloadSpring 2023
Climate change is causing mountain glacial systems to warm rapidly, leading to increased water fluxes from these catchments and concomitant export of glacially-derived sediment and organic matter (OM). Glacial OM represents an aged, but potentially bioavailable carbon pool that is compositionally...

Fall 2023
As internal tides propagate in the ocean, they carry and dissipate energy over hundreds and even thousands of kilometers. We perform fully nonlinear simulations to examine the evolution of horizontally propagating, vertical mode-1 internal tides in non-uniformly stratified fluids, as it depends...

The future influences of climate change and river regulation on high-latitude circulation as determined by ocean modelling
DownloadFall 2023
The Hudson Bay Complex (HBC), encompassing Foxe Basin (FB), Hudson Strait (HS), Ungava Bay (UB), Hudson Bay (HB), and James Bay (JB), experiences notable shifts in freshwater sources. Despite being smaller than the Arctic Ocean, the HBC annually receives around 900 km3 of river discharge,...

Growth Narratives and Governance Dependencies in Resource Towns Fort McMurray as Case Study
DownloadSpring 2023
Oil sand development is the main economic engine in Alberta’s Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo (RMWB). Large-scale boosterism and investments in oil sand projects have mainly driven the Municipality’s rapid growth during the path dependency of the last few decades. The rapid growth and...

Spring 2023
Secondary succession is defined as natural regeneration following complete forest clearance from anthropogenic or natural disturbances. Traditional strategies aimed to map and characterize secondary succession using remote sensing are usually based on deterministic approaches, where transitions...

USING PHOTOGRAMMETRY TO ANALYZE THE MORPHOLOGY, TAPHONOMY, AND SEDIMENT DEFORMATION OF BRASILICHNIUM TRACKWAYS ON A SLOPING SAND DUNE FROM THE NAVAJO FORMATION
DownloadFall 2023
The ichnogenus Brasilichnium is widely distributed locally and is found stratigraphically on eolian sediments of the same western erg system of the Early Jurassic period. Exceptionally wellpreserved synapsid trackways of Brasilichnium were discovered by researchers from the National Park Service...
