The Biology of Sclerobionts and their Hosts: Comparing Biomechanical Experiments on Brachiopod Hosts to Sclerobiont Distribution Maps
DownloadFall 2014
Sclerobionts and their host organisms provide a great deal of information for palaeoecological and palaeoenvironmental studies. However, any interpretation of sclerobiont – host relationships depends on an understanding of the host’s orientation. In the past, distinction of host life and...

The carbonate succession on Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac, located close to each other in the Caribbean Sea, includes the Bluff Group that is formed of the unconformity-bounded Brac Formation (early Oligocene), Cayman Formation (middle Miocene), and Pedro Castle Formation (early Pliocene), which...

Isotope Geochemistry of Natural Gas from the Horn River Basin: Understanding Gas Origin, Storage and Transport in an Unconventional Shale Play
DownloadFall 2014
Devonian shales of the Horn River Basin, northeast British Columbia are recognized key targets for unconventional shale gas production in Canada. Recent studies show gas isotope geochemistry in several unconventional shale plays worldwide differ from conventional hydrocarbon reservoirs and carbon...

Characterizing an in-situ fraction of Photosynthetic Active Radiation product for implementation in the validation of MODIS-derived fraction of Photosynthetic Active Radiation products using continuous-wavelet transforms
DownloadSpring 2020
The goal of this thesis is to address the need to improve forestry monitoring and satellite validation techniques to better contextualize the effects that human-induced climate change is having on tropical dry forests (TDFs). Climate change is expected to change regional and global precipitation...

Hyperspectral Band Selection with the N-dimensional Spectral Solid Angle and Its Utilization in the Discrimination of Spectrally Similar Targets
DownloadFall 2019
The discrimination of earth surface materials using hyperspectral sensing can be facilitated by selecting a subset of spectral bands that focuses on essential features. Materials in detailed classes such as rock types and tree species often present great spectral similarity, producing challenges...

Orogenic Gold mineralization at 3Ace and Geochemical Characteristics of Quartz Monzonite Dikes at Sprogge, South-east Yukon
DownloadFall 2014
3Ace and Sprogge are two Au occurrences in the southeast Yukon, Selwyn Basin. Gold mineralization at 3Ace was previously believed to be intrusion-related, however, recent petrography and geochemical analysis show mineralization to be associated with mid- Cretaceous orogenesis. Gold occurs along...

The mining industry generates vast amounts of geological material and diamond drill core throughout the life-cycle of any exploration or mining project. This material needs to be examined, logged, and assayed where appropriate. Currently this is generally performed through visual observations by...
