Framing Indigenous Partnerships in Energy and Allied Renewable Resource Sectors. Final Report to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada
(2017)
Canada is a top five global energy producer and thus is in a leadership position with respect to how it engages in international markets and, increasingly, energy partnerships. Growing global energy demand and international ...
Lake Manitoba and its Watershed: Knowledge Gaps & Next Steps
(2016)
Lake Manitoba is a large, shallow prairie lake located in central Manitoba. The lake and watershed are subject to numerous environmental pressures including climate change, land use change, and regulation of water levels, ...
Acidic weathering of basalt and basaltic glass: 1. Near-infrared spectra, thermal infrared spectra, and implications for Mars
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2017-01-24)
Acid-leached rinds and coatings occur in volcanic environments on Earth and have been
identified using orbital spectroscopy on Mars, but their development is poorly understood. We simulated long-term open-system acidic ...
Optical and radiometric models of the NOMAD instrument part I: the UVIS channel
(Optics Express, 2015-11-09)
The NOMAD instrument has been designed to best fulfil the science objectives of the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter mission that will be launched in 2016. The instrument is a combination of three channels that cover the UV, ...
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 ...
Optical and radiometric models of the NOMAD instrument part II: the infrared channels - SO and LNO
(Optics Express, 2016-02-16)
NOMAD is a suite of three spectrometers that will be launched in 2016 as part of the joint ESA-Roscosmos ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter mission. The instrument contains three channels that cover the IR and UV spectral ranges ...
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 ...
Detection of rotational spectral variation on the M-type asteroid (16) Psyche
(The Astronomical Journal, 2016-12-28)
The asteroid (16) Psyche is of scientific interest because it contains ∼1% of the total mass of the asteroid belt and is thought to be the remnant metallic core of a protoplanet. Radar observations have indicated the ...
Imaging spectroscopy of geological samples and outcrops: Novel insights from microns to meters
(GSA Today, 2015-12-01)
Imaging spectroscopy is a powerful, non-destructive mineralogic tool that provides insights into a variety of geological processes. This remote measurement technique has been used for decades from orbital or aerial platforms ...
