Nalcor Energy planifie actuellement un projet hydroélectrique dans le bas Churchill, d’un coût prévu de 6 à 9 milliards de dollars. Étant donné l’échelle (plus de 2 800 MW) et la durée de vie potentielle de ce projet, les effets des changements climatiques sur les ressources en eau du fleuve Churchill doivent être projetés. Ce […]

Nalcor Energy is in the planning stages of the Lower Churchill Hydroelectric Generation Project, expected to cost between $ 6 and 9 billion dollars. Due to the scale (over 2800 MW) and potential lifespan of this project, consideration needs to be made about the effects of climate change on the available water in the Churchill […]

Nalcor Energy is currently planning the development of a 2800 MW hydroelectric project on the lower Churchill River in Labrador. The Lower Churchill Project is the most attractive undeveloped hydroelectric project in North America. Hydro projects have long timelines and their viability is highly dependent on the expected hydrological regime of the watershed. Climate change […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to use bias corrected climate model output to drive a hydrological model of the Churchill River Basin in Labrador. This represents a major milestone in an existing research collaboration between Memorial University and Nalcor Energy, the primary objective of which is to determine the effects of climate […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to develop a robust and useful analysis of the effects of climate change on the hydrology of the Churchill River watershed in Labrador. The partner organization, Nalcor Energy, is planning a multi-billion dollar hydroelectric development on the Churchill River and has a strong interest on the impact […]

The specific investigation of the redox conditions of the Green Point Formation sediments will allow modelling the paleoceanographic conditions on a global basis particularly because the investigated formation is the Cambrian?Ordovician GSSP, which adds to the value of the contributions of the study to understanding the global distribution of source rocks around that time interval.

The proposed project investigates the diagenesis of the lowermost Port au Port carbonates in Western Newfoundland. Few earlier studies suggested that the carbonates vary from lime mudstones of low energy to grainstones and rudstones of high energy shallow-shelf settings. The study will allow the reconstruction of full diagenetic history of the basin and factors that […]
