    Abstract : Since the late 18th century, chemicals have been industrially produced, and used by consumers. Today, the number of registered chemicals are over 150 000 in North America and Europe alone, and the number is predicted to increase. READ MORE

  5. 4. Mapping Future Canadian Arctic Coastlines

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Pia Blake; [2021]
    Keywords : Isostatic Rebound; Canadian Arctic; Climate Change; RCP scenarios; Coastlines; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The Canadian Arctic currently faces changing coastlines due isostatic rebound and climate change-driven sea-levels rising. This thesis seeks to answer how local coastlines will change over time under different Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios, where errors in modelled coastlines come from, and how much of an impact isostatic rebound has on sea-levels compared to climate-change driven changes.

    Abstract : The chemical compositions of Cr-spinel extracted from mafic and ultramafic rocks collected on Ellesmere Island in the Arctic Canadian Archipelago were obtained through electron microprobe analyses. The extensively altered rocks are sampled from rock units in the Franklinian MobileBelt, which is representative of a Paleozoic tectonically active oceanic regime of which little is presently known.
