Spring 2020
Gahcho Kué is a diamond mine in the Northwest Territories of Canada that opened in 2016. This is the first study into the morphology, N systematics, and stable isotope (C and N) composition of the Gahcho Kué diamonds, and the mineral chemistry of the associated inclusions. The resulting data are...

This research investigates radially spreading intrusion created from a forced plume, when fluid continuously injected vertically from a nozzle entrains uniformly stratified ambient as it falls back upon itself. The flow evolution is determined as it depends upon the ambient buoyancy frequency,...

Monitoring year-to-year variability in dry mixed-grass prairie yield using multi-sensor remote sensing
DownloadFall 2012
The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and harvested biomass were compared to assess rangeland productivity (above-ground green biomass or “yield”) in southern Albertan dry mixed-grass prairie. Seasonal trends during the 2009 and 2010 growing seasons were investigated using harvested...

This dissertation focuses on problems and progress in studying crushing predation on gastropods in the Modern and the fossil record. Although crushing predation tends to be destructive, it is possible to gather data on crushing predation from multiple angles. Chapter 2 applies an ichnotaxonomic...

Further Re-Os Arsenopyrite Geochronology from Selected Meguma Au Deposits, Meguma Terrane, Nova Scotia: Possible Evidence for a Protracted Gold-forming System
DownloadFall 2015
The Meguma terrane, Nova Scotia, is dominated by two rock types; regionally deformed and metamorphosed Cambro-Ordovician metasedimentary rocks and ca. 380-370 Ma meta- to peraluminous granites. The metasedimentary rocks host numerous orogenic-type, vein-hosted gold deposits which occur throughout...

Petrophysical properties of bitumen from the Upper Devonian Grosmont reservoir, Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2009
The Upper Devonian Grosmont reservoir in Alberta, Canada, is the single largest carbonate bitumen reservoir in the world, with an estimated 400 billion barrels of bitumen in place. The Grosmont bitumen formed from light crude oil via extensive biodegradation, which produced extremely high in-situ...

Geology, geochronology, thermobarometry, and tectonic evolution of the Queen Maud block, Churchill craton, Nunavut, Canada
DownloadSpring 2012
The Queen Maud block is divided into two crustal belts. The western Perry River belt is dominated by Mesoarchean to Neoarchean granitic gneisses and supracrustal rocks; it was incorporated into the Rae domain by at least 2.46 Ga. The eastern Paalliq belt is dominated by the 2.52-2.45 Ga Queen...
