Studying the 1.9 billion year old rocks of the Pethei Group
Principal Investigator: Mehra, Akshay Karankumar
Licensed Year(s): 2024 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5571. For much of Earth’s history, microbes have been the only forms of life on our planet. As a result of this dominance, the sedimentary rock record is full of physical and chemical evidence of microbial activity. Stromatolites, which are laminated buildups constructed, or aided, by microbes, are one kind of microbial fo...


Alberta-Northwest Territories Transboundary Fish Monitoring Program: Slave River
