The Kennetcook-Windsor basin is a part of the large composite Maritimes Basin in Atlantic Canada. Subsurface seismic data indicate a very complex basinal history in terms of syn-depositional deformation and superimposition of numerous episodes of fault reactivation in the basin. Faults mapped...

River runoff plays a very important role in the Arctic Ocean. The Arctic Ocean accounts for around 1% of the total world ocean volume, but receives around 11% of the worlds river runoff. In addition, the Arctic Ocean is a β ocean, where stratification is primarily determined by salinity as...

The Labrador Sea experiences deep convection, a process where the oceans’ surface cools to the point where it may become more dense than the water at depth, promoting sinking and vertical mixing. This mixing can exceed 2000m in depth, producing a large volume of deep water, a crucial component in...

The Canadian Arctic Islands (CAI) contain the largest concentration of terrestrial ice outside of the continental ice sheets. Mass loss from this region has recently increased sharply due to above average summer temperatures. Thus, increasing the understanding of the mechanisms responsible for...

High-resolution regional climate simulations of the Karakoram, Himalaya have been performed for investigation into the atmospheric dynamics in this region, and their role in the Karakoram’s snowfall accumulation and glacial evolution. It has been seen through a combination of field measurements...

Using drilled-undrilled shell damage analysis to estimate crushing predation frequencies in modern marine gastropod assemblages
DownloadSpring 2010
Predation is a frequently studied subject, but estimating crushing predation in mollusk communities is challenging. Shells record successful attacks, but it is not always possible to identify attacks on an individual basis. Repair scar frequency is a common proxy for crushing mortality, but shell...
