Evaluating degraded ballast and track geometry variability along a Canadian freight railroad through ballast maintenance records and ground-penetrating radar
DownloadSpring 2018
The majority of track comprising Canadaâs large railway network is constructed on ballasted foundations. As such, the accumulation of fines within the void space between the ballast aggregate, referred to as ballast degradation, is considered to be a significant factor contributing to the...

Ice-Atmosphere Interactions on the Devon Ice Cap, Canada: the Effects of Climate Warming on Surface Energy Balance, Melting, and Firn Stratigraphy
DownloadSpring 2014
In order to better constrain the magnitude of projected sea-level rise from Canadian Arctic glaciers during the 21st century warming, it is critical to understand the environmental mechanisms that enhance surface warming and melt, and how the projected increase in surface melt will translate into...
