Sulfur Speciation and Curation Considerations for the Carbonaceous Chondrite Tagish Lake and Other Meteorites
DownloadSpring 2023
Carbonaceous chondrites contain significant abundances of sulfur components such as sulfide, sulfate, elemental sulfur (S0), and organosulfur compounds. These are significant because questions remain regarding the role of S in the origin of life. Chondrites and all other meteorites are out of...

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...

As internal tides propagate in the ocean, they carry and dissipate energy over hundreds and even thousands of kilometers. We perform fully nonlinear simulations to examine the evolution of horizontally propagating, vertical mode-1 internal tides in non-uniformly stratified fluids, as it depends...

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,...

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...

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...

Sedimentary Facies Distribution within the Duvernay Formation, East Shale Basin, Westerdale Embayment, Alberta, Canada
DownloadSpring 2023
Abstract: The Upper Devonian Duvernay Formation is composed of basin-filling sediments ranging from floatstones to organic-rich mudstones. The organic-rich mudstones were subjected to the appropriate burial depth, pressure, and temperatures to constitute an unconventional reservoir target. The...

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...
