Empowering Churchill: Exploring energy security in northern Manitoba
(Arctic Institute of North America, 2022-06-11)
To those living in Churchill, Manitoba, having power means much more than being able to turn on the lights. Using Churchill as a case study, we examine how local context can improve the suitability of energy security ...
Calibrations of phase abundance, composition, and particle size distribution for olivine-orthopyroxene mixtures from reflectance spectra
(American Geophysical Union, 1986-10-10)
Spectral reflectance measurements of characterized (phase abundance, particle size) mixtures of olivine and orthopyroxene were utilized to define the correlations between spectral and albedo parameters of such assemblages ...
A chrono-geographic look at Mesolithic burials: an initial study
(Landesamt für Denkmalpflege und Archäologie Sachsen-Anhalt, 2016)
Over the past decade we have focused on two interrelated topics within Mesolithic burial studies, the relationship between burial number and burial date, and the chronology of Mesolithic sites with burials. Related to this ...
Nitrogen dynamics and nitrogen-to-phosphorus stoichiometry in cold region agricultural streams
(Wiley Periodicals LLC on behalf of American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America, 2021-05-12)
Cold agricultural regions are getting warmer and experiencing shifts in precipitation patterns, which affect hydrological transport of nutrients through reduced snowpack and higher annual proportions of summer rainfall. ...
Small-scale methane dispersion modelling for possible plume sources on the surface of Mars
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2012-10-11)
Intense interest in the characteristics of a methane source on Mars has been spurred by recent observations of a plume structure. The current NASA Mars Science Laboratory and future landers and orbiters will be tasked with ...
Diaspores and related hydroxides' Spectral-compositional properties and implications for Mars
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 2000-03-25)
Differences in spectral reflectance properties (0.3-26 μm) of a suite of metal hydroxides (gibbsite, böhmite, diaspore, goethite, and manganite) have been found to be a function of both structural and compositional differences ...
Compositional homogeneity of CM parent bodies.
(The Astronomical Journal, 2016-08-10)
CM chondrites are the most common type of hydrated meteorites, making up ∼1.5% of all falls. Whereas most CM chondrites experienced only low-temperature (∼0°C–120°C) aqueous alteration, the existence of a small fraction ...
Manganese-rich olivines: Identification from spectral reflectance properties
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 1997-11-25)
Reflectance spectra of manganese-rich olivines were examined to determine which spectral features allow these minerals to be distinguished from forsteritic-fayalitic olivines. The results indicate that manganese-rich ...
Statement on Spectroscopic Imaging in Art Conservation: A New Tool for Materials Investigations
(Leonardo Electronic Archive, 2002-09)
Spectroscopic approaches for studying faint text on a wooden tally from Invincible (1758)
(International Journal of Conservation Science, 2013-01-01)
In this study we describe the application of X-ray fluorescence, variable pressure scanning electron microscopy and visible (420-720 nm) hyperspectral imaging to assess the surface properties of a wood tally stick that was ...
