Collapse scar bogs are circular or oval-shaped wet depressions in perennially frozen peatland. They originated as perennially frozen peatland and subsequently the permafrost thawed which caused the surface to subside. Surface waters are poor in dissolved minerals because they are not affected by mineral-rich waters in adjacent fens. Characteristic features are: (a) small, wet depressions on perennially frozen peatland. (b) developed entirely in peatland terrain and not in contact with mineral soils. (c) waters poor in dissolved minerals. 3, record 1, English, - collapse%20scar%20bog

Les bogs effondrés sont des cuvettes humides circulaires ou ovales dans une tourbière glacée toute l'année, qui constitue leur état premier. Par la suite, le pergélisol dégèle et cause l'effondrement de la surface. Les eaux de surface contiennent peu de minéraux dissous puisqu'elles ne sont pas touchées par les eaux riches en minéraux des fens avoisinants. Ses traits caractéristiques sont : a) petites cuvettes humides dans une tourbière glacée toute l'année; b) entièrement créé dans les tourbières, sans contact avec les sols minéraux; c) eaux pauvres en minéraux dissous. 3, record 1, French, - bog%20effondr%C3%A9

mineral sequence: The order of deposition during formation. A normal sequence is stated to be oxides followed by sulfides and ending with elements, such as gold. Ideal conditions necessary for normal deposition are those which are not subjected to crowding, telescoping, stretching, etc. during the deposition or rejuvenation of mineralizing solutions, effective changes of wall rock along the vein, or any of the similar changes common in ore deposition. 1, record 2, English, - normal%20sequence

Canada Centre for Mineral and Energy Technology (CANMET), the research and development arm of Natural Resources Canada, is working in partnership with the Canadian Home Builders' Association to champion the design and construction of more environmentally appropriate, energy-efficient housing. The Advanced Houses Program, an initiative under Canada's Green Plan to reduce global warming, provides industry with the opportunity to develop and field test new products and technologies. Under the Advanced Houses Program, ten prototype homes, all winners of a national design competition, are being constructed across Canada. Each Advanced House is designed to minimize its impact on the external environment by consuming less than one-quarter the energy and one-half the water of a conventional canadian home and has a significantly better level of comfort and indoor air quality. 1, record 18, English, - Advanced%20Houses%20Program

Pour donner suite aux recommandations du Plan vert relatives au réchauffement planétaire, on a lancé le Programme de la maison performante, qui fournit à l'industrie les moyens d’essayer en conditions réelles de nouveaux produits et technologies. Dans le cadre du Programme de la maison performante, on a construit dix maisons prototypes réparties à travers le Canada. Tous ces projets ont été sélectionnés par un concours national. On a conçu chacune de ces maisons pour réduire à un strict minimum son impact sur l'environnement. Elles consomment moins d’un quart de l'énergie et la moitié de l'eau utilisées dans une maisons ordinaire canadienne et les niveaux de confort et de qualité de l'air y sont bien plus élevés. 1, record 18, French, - Programme%20de%20la%20maison%20performante
