Sequence stratigraphy, titania diagenesis and relationship to petroleum systems modeling
October 2018 – January 2021
This project examines different forms of titania (TiO2) minerals to confirm the relationship between late diagenetic titania (i.e., titania minerals transformed under the heat and pressure of sedimentary processes) and hydrocarbon migration and thus assess the use of titania polymorphs as “pathfi
Impacts of Tidal Energy Extraction on Sediment Dynamics in Minas Basin, Bay of Fundy
February 2010 – December 2012
Researchers developed a numerical hydrodynamic and sediment transport model for Minas Basin in the Bay of Fundy, focusing on the sediment dynamics of the tidal inlets and flats.
Effects of Energy Extraction on Sediment Dynamics in Intertidal Ecosystems of the Minas Basin
January 2010 – May 2012
This project assessed how the dynamics of sedimentation change when energy is extracted from a macro-tidal system. The differences in tidal prism and energy between neap and spring tidal cycles were used as a proxy for energy extraction by in-stream tidal power devices.
