Spring 2010
The <1,130 year old Whitecourt Meteorite Impact Crater, located several kilometres south of Whitecourt, Alberta (Canada), is a well-preserved bowl-shaped structure having a depth and diameter of ~6 m and 36 m. There are less than a dozen known terrestrial sites of similar size and age. Unlike...

Isotopic Insights into the Origin of Dissolved Sulfate and the Sulfate-supported Microbial Processes in Deep Subsurface Fracture Waters in the Witwatersrand Basin, South Africa
DownloadSpring 2017
Subsurface groundwater has been discovered from rock fractures in Precambrian cratons worldwide. In the Witwatersrand Basin (South Africa), the fracture waters show residence times in the order of 1 to 100 million years. Interestingly, sulfate-reducing bacteria are widespread in these fracture...

High-resolution Analysis of the Ichnological Diversity, Depositional Dynamics, and Stratigraphic Architecture of the Middle Triassic Sunset Prairie Formation
DownloadSpring 2019
The Sunset Prairie Formation is a newly established lithostratigraphic formation within the Middle Triassic (Anisian) of western Canada. The interval had commonly been overlooked or placed within the underlying Montney Formation or overlying Doig Formation, or was considered to be partially...

Three-dimensional Outcrop Modelling of Fluvial and Estuarine Outcrops in the Lower Cretaceous McMurray Formation, Northeast Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2018
While it is widely accepted that both cross-bedded sand and Inclined Heterolithic Stratification (IHS) are the two main geobodies that compose Aptian-aged middle McMurray Formation strata, the stratigraphic relationship between the two units and their physiographic depositional positions in a...

Temperatures and Heat Production in the Slave Craton Lower Crust: Evidence from Xenoliths in the Diavik A-154 Kimberlite
DownloadFall 2019
Lower crustal heat production is poorly constrained due to the relative inaccessibility of lower crustal samples and their inherent complexity. To obtain the requisite information, the current project conducts spatially resolved geochemical analyses on minerals in 15 lower crustal xenoliths...

Impact of women’s participation in disaster recovery on their lives: A case study from Pakistan
DownloadFall 2019
This study used a qualitative case study to examine women’s participation in disaster recovery in Union Council Langarpura, Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) state of Pakistan. The specific objectives of this research were to: Analyze how women have participated in the recovery process; Identify the...

Building upon ichnological principles: modern biogenic structures, ichnotaxonomic classification, and paleoecological and stratigraphic significance of ichnofossil assemblages
DownloadFall 2009
Biogenic structures can impart important information regarding animal behaviors and depositional conditions at the time of colonization including: sedimentation rate, current velocities, distribution of food resources, oxygenation, salinity, and temperature. This thesis utilizes various...

Characterization of late-diagenetic calcites of the Devonian Southesk-Cairn Carbonate Complex (Alberta Basin): constraints from petrography, stable and radiogenic isotopes, fluid inclusion and organic matter maturity data
DownloadSpring 2010
The Alberta Basin has been the subject of various diagenetic studies but the precise understanding of the processes behind deep burial cementation remains unclear. This study investigates late-diagenetic calcites from the Devonian Southesk-Cairn Carbonate Complex with the purpose of constraining...
