Paleo-sea ice conditions of the Amundsen Gulf, Canadian Arctic Archipelago: Implications from the foraminiferal record of the last 200 years
(2008-03)
Four boxcores were collected as part of the Canadian Arctic Exchange Shelf Study (CASES) in the Amundsen Gulf at water depths of 59 m to 600 m. Data from these cores help to develop a record of changes in the oceanographic ...
Using small, temporary seismic networks for investigating tectonic deformation: Brittle deformation and evidence for strike-slip faulting in Bhutan
(2007-07)
We processed data from a small, five-station temporary seismic network deployed from January 2002 until March 2003 within the Kingdom of Bhutan. We detected, associated, and located approximately 2,100 teleseismic, regional, ...
Development of a wearable global positioning system for place and health research
(2008-11)
Background: An increasing number of studies suggest that characteristics of context, or the attributes of the places within which we live, work and socialize, are associated with variations in health-related behaviours and ...
Foraminiferal assemblage changes over the last 15,000 years on the Mackenzie-Beaufort Sea Slope and Amundsen Gulf, Canada: Implications for past sea ice conditions
(2009-06)
Two cores, one from the Beaufort Sea Slope at 1000 m water depth (core 750) and one from the Amundsen Gulf at 426 m (core 124), were collected to help determine paleo-ice cover in the Holocene and late glacial of this area. ...
Devonian extension in Northwestern Newfoundland: Ar-40/Ar-39 and U-Pb data from the Ming's Bight area, Baie Verte Peninsula
(2001-03)
The Ming's Bight Group of northwestern Newfoundland, an outlier of Humber Zone continental margin rocks, is entirely surrounded by ophiolitic rocks of the Dunnage Zone. Structures in the Ming's Bight Group and adjacent ...
Crooked-line 2D seismic reflection imaging in crystalline terrains: Part 2, migration
(2003-01)
Seismic reflection surveys are frequently conducted over very complicated geological structure, but surveying often must be confined to existing crooked roads or tracks. Typically, data from such 2D crooked-line surveys ...
Stable isotopic composition of deep-sea gorgonian corals Primnoa spp.: a new archive of surface processes
(2005)
The deep-sea gorgonian coral Primnoa spp. live in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans at depths of 65 to 3200 m. They have an arborescent growth form with a skeletal axis composed of annual rings made from calcite and gorgonin. ...
Radiocarbon evidence for annual growth rings in the deep-sea octocoral Primnoa resedaeformis
(2005)
The deep-sea gorgonian octocoral Primnoa resedaeformis is distributed throughout the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans at depths of 65 to 3200 m. It has a 2-part skeleton of calcite and gorgonin. Towards the inside of the axial ...
Sources of nutrients to windward agricultural systems in pre-contact Hawai'i
(Ecological Society of America, 2009-09)
Prior to European contact in 1778, Hawaiians developed intensive irrigated pondfield agricultural systems in windward Kohala, Hawai'i. We evaluated three potential sources of nutrients to windward systems that could have ...
