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...

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,...

Housing affordability is an issue of increasing social, economic, and political importance in Canada. Concurrent with the broader cost of living crisis, Canadians are forced to spend growing proportions of their income on housing, with homeownership increasingly out of reach for many. However,...

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...

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...

Immigration is a life-changing decision accompanied by new experiences for individuals. Depending on background, this experience can be varied from one to another and can influence the experience of sense of place in the new environment. This thesis contributes to this area of inquiry by applying...

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...

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...

Sedimentology and Stratigraphy of the Upper Cretaceous Milk River Formation and Alderson Member (Lea Park Formation) in Southeast Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2023
The Upper Cretaceous Milk River Formation-Lower Alderson Member zone in Southeast Alberta records deposition of a fine-grained siliciclastic delta-shoreface on the western margin of the Western Interior Seaway punctuated by significant episodes of shoreline transgression and regression. The...

Studying structural changes in tropical forests is essential for understanding changes in ecosystem complexity. In this thesis, I studied changes in ecosystem structure using two different airborne Light Detection and Range (LiDAR) systems collected 16-years apart (the 2005 dry season and the...
