The depositional framework and stratigraphic architecture of the Lower Triassic Montney Formation, northeastern British Columbia
DownloadFall 2022
The Lower Triassic Montney Formation contains some of the largest unconventional hydrocarbon plays in the world, and over the last decades has become critical to Canada’s main energy resources. These unconventional plays consist mainly of fine- to coarse-grained siltstone beds which are difficult...

THE SEDIMENTOLOGY AND STRATIGRAPHY OF THE LOWER CRETACEOUS CLEARWATER FORMATION AT MARTEN HILLS AND NIPISI, ALBERTA, CANADA
DownloadSpring 2021
The Lower Cretaceous (Albian) Clearwater Formation at Marten Hills and Nipisi in north-central Alberta contain two members (Wabiskaw and the newly proposed Marten Hills Member), which sit disconformably above the sub-Cretaceous unconformity. Both the Marten Hills and Nipisi regions are currently...

Spring 2021
The Upper Devonian Duvernay Formation is an important hydrocarbon source rock in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin and has been a significant unconventional oil, gas liquids, and gas reservoir since 2011. Heterogeneity in this and other shale reservoirs is important in predicting rock...

Fall 2019
The Himalayan orogen is segmented along its strike at the scale of hundreds of kilometres. This segmentation is apparent from along-strike changes in earthquake rupture patterns, thickness changes, deformation styles, topographic gradients, thermal evolution, and faults at oblique angles to the...

Spring 2018
This thesis contributes to the development of a cryptotephra framework in northwestern North America, providing the initial data for the construction of a regional cryptotephra framework where key cryptotephra layers (those which are widely distributed, easily correlated, and have well...

Sedimentological and Ichnological Dynamics of the Early Cambrian Mount Clark Formation, Northwest Territories, Canada
DownloadSpring 2017
The early Cambrian Mount Clark Formation of the Northwest Territories comprises marginal marine to marine siliciclastic sediments deposited in an incipient rift basin on the margin of Laurentia. Within core and outcrop datasets the preserved record of sedimentation represents complex and highly...

Paleodepositional Environments and Stratigraphic Framework for the Lower Cretaceous Bluesky Formation and Related Strata in the Peace River Oil Sands Deposit of Alberta
DownloadFall 2017
The Early Cretaceous Bluesky Formation in the Peace River oil sands area of west-central Alberta, Canada hosts significant bitumen resources. This work is part of an ongoing endeavour by researchers and practitioners in academia and industry to develop paleodepositional and sequence stratigraphic...

Stratigraphic and Structural Relationships in the Foreland Basin and Humber Arm Allochthon on Port au Port Peninsula, western Newfoundland
DownloadFall 2017
Port au Port Peninsula, in western Newfoundland, sits at the western edge of the Appalachian orogen. Middle Ordovician foreland basin strata deposited on the Laurentian margin are primarily derived from, and overridden by, Cambrian to Ordovician deep-water rocks previously mapped as mélange and...

Paleoceanographic significance of the Neoproterozoic Polanco Limestones Formation (Uruguay): stratigraphy, isotopic geochemistry and age
DownloadSpring 2016
Carbon and Strontium isotope data for marine carbonates can provide a detailed record of isotopic variations in seawater through time and have proven to be a valuable tool for interpreting biogeochemical events and correlating Neoproterozoic sedimentary successions worldwide. The Neoproterozoic...

The Sedimentology, Stratigraphy and Reservoir Characteristics of the Montney D1 and D2 Horizons, Greater Pouce Coupe Area, Alberta and British Columbia
DownloadFall 2016
The Middle Montney D1 and D2 Horizons in the Greater Pouce Coupe Area are important exploration targets. These moderate porosity and low permeability siltstone units have been referred to as distal shelf deposits in the past, based primarily on their restricted grain size. The D1 and D2 Horizons...
