A Lighting Audit in the SUB: What a Bright Idea
(2004-04)A group of five students participated in a group project for the class of ENVS 3502, taught by Tarah Wright at Dalhousie University. We focused on the feasibility of reducing Dalhousie’s energy consumption by evaluating ... -
Lithofacies of the Lower Paleozoic Carbonate Shelf to Basin Facies Transition, West-Central Ellesmere Island, Canadian Arctic
(1983-04-15)The Upper Ordovician (Ashgillian) to Middle Silurian (Wenlockian) graptolitic carbonates and cherts of the Cape Phillips Formation accumulated in the deep water basinal environment of the Hazen Trough. The coeval platform ... -
Lithogeochemistry of the Goldenville-Halifax Transition (GHT) of the Meguma Group in the Manganiferous Zinc-Lead Deposit at Eastville, Nova Scotia
(1986-04-15)Zentilli et al. (1984) have pointed out that most metalliferous deposits within the Cambro- Ordovician Meguma Group have a spatial relation to the Goldenville - Halifax Formation transition (GHT). The GHT is generally more ... -
llmenite-Pyrophanite and Niobian RuHle in tbe South Mountafn Batholith, Nova Scotia
(2003-04-15)Ilmenite and rutile are ubiquitous, but modally scarce (<0.5%), minerals in gr~nitoid rocks of the differentiated peraluminous South Mountain Batholith (SMB). Ilmenite occurs as blocky 0.05-0.90 mm grains in biotite, and ... -
Long & Short Term Trends & Fluctuations of GroundWater Levels at Three Sites in Nova Scotia.
(2000-04-15)Groundwater is an essential resource in Nova Scotia, used by over half of the province's population for domestic purposes. In order to manage this resource effectively, it is important to understand if and how groundwater ... -
A Lower Carboniferous Sedimentary-Volcanic Succession, North Baddeck River, Nova Scotia
(1982-03-15)A comprehensive study was made on a roughly 60 metre thick succession of sedimentary and volcanic rocks on the North Baddeck River, central Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. The sequence comprises thinly-laminated grey ... -
The Lower Cretaceous Ellerslie Formation of Southeast Taber and Chin Coulee Oil Fields, Southeastern Alberta
(1984-04-15)Sandstones of the Lower Cretaceous Ellerslie Formation overlie a major unconformity in southeastern Alberta. Post-Jurassic erosion produced a subcrop pattern on which an extensive drainage system developed in Lower Cretaceous ... -
Machine Learning Focal Mechanism Inversion for Hydraulic Fracturing Induced Earthquakes
(2023-04)Hydraulic fracturing has been found to be a major contributor to the increase in induced seismicity worldwide, with pore pressure, poroelasticity, and coulomb stress transfer identified as the three main triggering ... -
Magnetic Anomalies Near Ore Bodies and Mineralized Zones in the Troodos Ophiolite of Cyprus
(1989-04-15)The Troodos ophiolite in southwestern Cyprus has been a major producer of copper since the Bronze age. As such, the area has been studied and mapped extensively, and most known mineralized areas have been studied. Preliminary ... -
Magnetic Modelling in the Davis Strait and Northern Labrador Sea
(1986-04-15)The Davis Strait is a constricted passage lying between Baffin Island and Greenland. Davis Strait separates the waters of Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea. There have been disagreements as to the nature of the crust in ... -
Magnetic Properties of a Bermudian Pillowed Lava Flow
(1982-03-15)This study is concerned with the description and interpretation of the opaque mineralogy and paleomagnetic properties of a 3.0 m core interval which is comprised of a pillowed lava flow and basal intrusive sheet taken from ...
