Fall 2012
Convergent plate boundaries have played an important role in the growth and assembly of the modern continents. To obtain a better understanding of the tectonic processes in these boundaries, it is necessary to constrain the rheology of the crust and upper mantle in these regions. Magnetotelluric...

Magnetotelluric Imaging of Electrically Anisotropic Crust Near Fort McMurray, Alberta: Implications for Engineered Geothermal Systems
DownloadFall 2014
The goal of this thesis is to investigate the character of the basement rocks beneath the oilsands region around Fort McMurray in the context of developing engineered geothermal systems (EGS). Magnetotelluric (MT) data were collected at 94 stations on two profiles near to Fort McMurray and...

Magnetotelluric (MT) data were collected at 67 stations during the 2008, 2009, and 2010 field seasons in southern Alberta. These have been combined with more than 300 MT stations previously collected in Alberta, allowing a three dimensional electrical resistivity model of the lithosphere to be...
