A new staples industry? Complexity, governance and Canada's diamond mines
(Oxford University Press, 2007)
The discovery of indicator minerals in the Slave geological province began a staking and development rush that, in a little over a decade, saw Canada becoming one of the world’s largest producers of diamonds. An examination ...
Pyroxene spectroscopy revisited: Spectral-compositional correlations and relationship to geothermometry.
(Journal of Geophysical Research, 1991-12-25)
Pyroxene reflectance and transmittance spectra have been examined in a search for systematic relationships between spectral features and compositional variations and to assess the applicability of reflectance spectroscopy ...
Advancing local energy transitions: A global review of government instruments supporting community energy
(Elsevier, 2021-10-28)
The adoption and encouragement of community energy, that is, the incentive to develop renewable energy projects with community participation and ownership, is a key ingredient of energy transition. Government policies and ...
Spectroscopic Imaging in Art Conservation: A New Tool for Materials Investigations
(The MIT Press, 2003-08-01)
A model for training undergraduate students in collaborative science
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-08-16)
Engagement of undergraduate students in research has been demonstrated to correlate with improved academic performance and retention. Research experience confers many benefits on participants, particularly foundational ...
Hydrological and catchment controls on event-scale dissolved organic carbon dynamics in boreal headwater streams
(Wiley, 2021-06-23)
Hydrological events transport large proportions of annual or seasonal dissolved organic carbon (DOC) loads from catchments to streams. The timing, magnitude and intensity of these events are very sensitive to changes in ...
Isotopic reconstruction of the weaning process in the archaeological population of Canímar Abajo, Cuba: A Bayesian probabilities mixing models approach
(Public Library of Science, 2017-05-01)
The general lack of well-preserved juvenile skeletal remains from Caribbean archaeological sites has, in the past, prevented evaluations of juvenile dietary changes. Canímar Abajo (Cuba), with a large number of well-preserved ...
Nitrogen and phosphorus loads to temperate seepage lakes associated with allochthonous dissolved organic carbon loads
(American Geophysical Union, 2018-06-16)
Terrestrial loads of dissolved organic matter (DOM) have increased in recent years in many north temperate lakes. While much of the focus on the “browning” phenomena has been on its consequences for carbon cycling, much ...
Physical characterization of ~2 m diameter near-Earth asteroid 2015 TC25: A possible boulder from E-type asteroid (44) Nysa
(The Astronomical Journal, 2016-11-11)
Small near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) (<20 m) are interesting, because they are progenitors for meteorites in our terrestrial collection. The physical characteristics of these small NEAs are crucial to our understanding of the ...
