THE ROLE OF TECTONISM IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRATIGRAPHIC SURFACES IN THE COLOMBIAN LLANOS FORELAND BASIN
DownloadFall 2021
Carvajal Torres, Juan Sebastian
During the Campanian-Paleogene, a regional basin extended from the Magdalena Valley in the west to the Llanos Basin in the east. Subsequently, the Llanos Basin was separated from the Magdalena Valley and became an independent depocenter from the Oligocene to the present. This study combines the...

The role of place promotion and urban image in the development and marketing of rapid mass transit systems (RMT)
DownloadFall 2011
McLellan, Andrew Nicholas Rowswell
For many cities, the improvement or development of rapid mass transit (RMT) systems offers benefits to the local population and environment, and contributes to efforts to compete with other centres. This thesis considers the motivations for the contemporary development and marketing of RMT in...

The response of Tropical Dry Forests to meteorological drought and El Niño Southern Oscillation
DownloadSpring 2020
As a result of economic pressures from agricultural development, timber extraction, tourism and the expansion of cattle ranching, Tropical Dry Forests (TDFs) are considered one of the most threatened and least protected ecosystems in the neotropics. Interacting with these human-induced effects,...

The Quandary of the Sask Craton: Origin and Evolution of the Lithospheric Mantle beneath the Sask Craton
DownloadFall 2018
Mantle xenoliths from the Cretaceous (~106 to ~95 Ma) kimberlites at Fort à la Corne (FALC) present a unique opportunity to study the lithospheric mantle beneath the newly recognised Sask Craton. The Sask Craton, a small terrane with Archean (3.2 - 2.5 Ga) crustal ages, is enclosed in the...

The Prebiotic Synthesis of Soluble Organic Matter in Carbonaceous Chondrites and the Influence of Asteroidal Aqueous Alteration
DownloadSpring 2018
Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are derived from primitive asteroids in the solar system and often contain prebiotic organic compounds including amino acids, carboxylic acids, nucleobases, and smaller precursor molecules. These soluble organic compounds, synthesized via non-biological chemical...
