Partition of Uranium in Four Canadian Examples of Mississippi Valley Type Base Metal Deposits: Pine Point, N.W.T.; Polaris, N.W.T.; Newfoundland Zinc, Newfoundland; and Gay's River, Nova Scotia
(1977-12)
Fission track analyses of minerals host rocks, and fission track mapping of uranium in samples from four Canadian Mississippi Valley type deposits, indicates that uranium concentrations in these samples are very minute ...
Structural Analysis of the George River Group at North Mountain, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
(1978-03-15)
Several different explanations of the structure of the George River rocks at North Mountain have been suggested in the past, none of which has proved to be very satisfactory.
Milligan has proposed that the structure is ...

(1978-03-15)
The North Mountain basalts are quartz-normative tholeiites stretching from Cape Split to Whipple, Nova Scotia. The lavas have been subjected to zeolite facies metamorphism. Native copper occurs in trace quantities associated ...
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 ...

(2023-04)
The American beaver (Castor canadensis) is a keystone species of both significant ecological and biocultural importance in Mi'kma'ki (Nova Scotia). In North America, several environmental covariates are known to influence ...
An Analysis of Introductory Environmental Science Textbooks’ Approaches to Commonly Held Climate Change Misconceptions
(2023-04)
A climate literate public is becoming increasingly important as the threats of climate
change grow (Johnston 2019). Climate literacy is taught across introductory environmental
science courses in higher education ...
Characterizing the Conifer Density Gradient from the Halifax Peninsula to the Hinterlands of the Halifax Regional Municipality
(2023-04)
The urban-forest tree-species composition is influenced by the urban environment and thus by daily anthropogenic activity. However, in the naturalized woodlands, species composition is primarily influenced by natural ...
Where is the Carbon? Spatially Mapping Organic Carbon on the Seafloor in the Eastern Shore Islands, Nova Scotia, Canada
(2023-04)
Coastal sediments contain some of the largest stocks of organic carbon on earth and play a vital role in influencing the carbon cycle. Protecting organic carbon hotspots is essential to mitigating climate change since ...
