This book was released on 2005 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The McCully area in the western part of the Late Devonian to Carboniferous Moncton Subbasin, located north-east of Sussex, New Brunswick, is of economic importance because of the presence of potash & rock salt deposits and a natural gas field. The primary objectives of this report are to understand the structural geology, three-dimensional architecture, and tectonic history of the Late Devonian to Carboniferous rocks in the vicinity of the McCully gas field. Special attention is paid to the morphology, kinematics, and timing of structures relevant to the structural control of the petroleum system in Albert Formation rocks of the gas field, and to emplacement & control of potash deposits in the study area. Data from surface mapping, industry & public domain seismic reflection profiles, drill core from potash exploration drilling, and well cuttings from the gas field are integrated in this study. The results presented advance knowledge of the stratigraphy & structural geology of the area and contribute to the assessment of structural controls on sedimentation, hydrocarbon traps, and potash & salt emplacement. The implications of the data for the tectonic history & setting of the larger Maritimes Basin are also evaluated.

Book Synopsis Shale Gas in New Brunswick by : Richard Saillant
Download or read book Shale Gas in New Brunswick written by Richard Saillant and published by Canadian Institute for Research on Public Policy and Public Administration. This book was released on 2014-12-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shale gas is to New Brunswick today what the Free Trade Agreement with the United States was to Canada a quarter century ago: a deeply controversial, highly polarizing issue over which tempers quickly flare up. As was the case with the free trade debate, the public discourse on shale gas has degenerated into a war of words, with most citizens left in the middle with very little information they can trust to secure a better understanding of what is at stake. This study aims to fill part of the wide information gap on shale gas in New Brunswick. While substantial knowledge has been built in recent years on the impact—both positive and negative—of shale gas on communities where it is actively being exploited, much less is available for New Brunswick. Yet, as this document makes clear, no two shales are alike. In order to understand the economic, environmental, social, and other consequences of shale gas, we cannot rely exclusively on other jurisdictions: we also need to investigate New Brunswick’s specific context. Virtually all of the contributors to this study—well-established, credible authorities in their respective fields—are associated with New Brunswick universities in one way or another.

Download or read book Picture Processing and Psychopictorics written by B.S. Lipkin and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1970-01-01 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picture Processing and Psychopictorics explores the selected aspects of perception and picture processing involving variables that are relevant to psychopictoric research. This book is organized into four parts encompassing 18 chapters. The first three parts cover the three classes of psychophysical variables, namely, contrast and border, shape and geometry, and texture. These parts also deal with the factors that influence the detection of objects in complex images. The discussion then shifts to the role of these factors in perception, as well as the computer analysis and manipulation of images with respect to these factors. The fourth part describes the programming systems for online experimental design and image manipulation. This work will be of great value to psychologists concerned with determining how the human extracts information from visual stimuli and to computer scientist concerned with developing programs and equipment to extract similar information from images.

Book Synopsis Compositional Data Analysis by : Vera Pawlowsky-Glahn
Download or read book Compositional Data Analysis written by Vera Pawlowsky-Glahn and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is difficult to imagine that the statistical analysis of compositional data has been a major issue of concern for more than 100 years. It is even more difficult to realize that so many statisticians and users of statistics are unaware of the particular problems affecting compositional data, as well as their solutions. The issue of ``spurious correlation'', as the situation was phrased by Karl Pearson back in 1897, affects all data that measures parts of some whole, such as percentages, proportions, ppm and ppb. Such measurements are present in all fields of science, ranging from geology, biology, environmental sciences, forensic sciences, medicine and hydrology. This book presents the history and development of compositional data analysis along with Aitchison's log-ratio approach. Compositional Data Analysis describes the state of the art both in theoretical fields as well as applications in the different fields of science. Key Features: Reflects the state-of-the-art in compositional data analysis. Gives an overview of the historical development of compositional data analysis, as well as basic concepts and procedures. Looks at advances in algebra and calculus on the simplex. Presents applications in different fields of science, including, genomics, ecology, biology, geochemistry, planetology, chemistry and economics. Explores connections to correspondence analysis and the Dirichlet distribution. Presents a summary of three available software packages for compositional data analysis. Supported by an accompanying website featuring R code. Applied scientists working on compositional data analysis in any field of science, both in academia and professionals will benefit from this book, along with graduate students in any field of science working with compositional data.
Book Synopsis The Joggins Fossil Cliffs by : John Calder
Download or read book The Joggins Fossil Cliffs written by John Calder and published by Formac Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Joggins Fossil Cliffs offer an unprecedented glimpse into the Earth's history. Bearing fossils of organisms from the lush, tropical forests that existed in the Coal Age — when the continents were assembled into one huge land mass or supercontinent, Pangea — Joggins traces, through layers of sediment, the massive environmental and geologic shifts that have occurred in the planet in the intervening millennia. From fossilized trees that stood thirty metres high to the remains of the earliest known reptile, Hylonomus lyelli, Joggins holds important information about the development of life on Earth — including offering lessons about human impacts on the environment. The Cliffs also share a story of human tenacity and rigorous debate on historical theories of evolution. Sir Charles Lyell and Sir William Dawson, two early geologists who studied Joggins extensively, influenced Charles Darwin with their findings of early fossil remains, particularly hollow tree fauna. The extent of their research at the Joggins site remains unparalleled and significant to this day. The book outlines these stories and more, including Mi'kmaq settlement of the area and the rise of the coal mining industry in the 19th century. It also shares the perspectives of Joggins residents today, and their efforts to preserve this globally significant location and the precious historical information it holds.

Book Synopsis Reflection Coefficients and Azimuthal AVO Analysis in Anisotropic Media by : Mark Naumovich Berdichevskiĭ
Download or read book Reflection Coefficients and Azimuthal AVO Analysis in Anisotropic Media written by Mark Naumovich Berdichevskiĭ and published by SEG Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Observing offset-dependent seismic reflectivity has proven to be a valuable exploration tool for the direct detection of hydrocarbons. This monograph provides a comprehensive review of reflection coefficients and their approximations in isotropic media, followed by an in-depth discussion of reflection amplitudes in anisotropic media. No prior knowledge of seismic anisotropy is assumed, and considerable effort is spent to introduce wave propagation and medium parameterizations useful for surface seismic applications in the presence of anisotropy. The first anisotropic model discussed is transverse isotropy with a vertical axis of symmetry (VTI media), typically used to describe shale sequences. Then the study of VTI reflection coefficients is extended to transverse isotropy with a horizontal axis of symmetry (HTI) - the symmetry system that describes a system of parallel vertical cracks. Analysis of the "Shuey-type" approximate HTI P-wave reflection coefficient makes it possible to devise fracture-detection algorithms based on the inversion of azimuthal differences of the P-wave AVO gradient. The monograph also presents analysis of shear- and converted-wave reflection coefficients for HTI and orthorhombic models, discusses practical aspects of applying the azimuthal AVO analysis, and mentions promising recent results.
