Save Our Species: A Blueprint for Restoring Butternut (Juglans cinerea) across Eastern North America
Resource
Butternut is a relatively uncommon hardwood tree native to eastern North America. The species’ abundance has declined over the past 50 years, primarily because of an invasive pathogen ( Ophiognomonia...
Science-based Responsible Resource Development: Lessons Learned From Two Canadian Success Stories
Resource
Most of Canada’s natural resource development (i.e., forestry, oil and gas, and mining activities) occurs in the boreal forest. These industrial activities lead to extensive land disturbances that...
Seed Collection and Extraction of Fireweed, Showy Aster and Canada Goldenrod
Resource
Reclamation of industrial sites in Alberta’s forest settings requires the re-establishment of self-sustaining boreal forest ecosystems comprising native forest plant species. Considerable work has...
Seed Collection, Processing and Storage
Resource
This publication provides a valuable guide for reclamation practitioners and technicians through the documents that regulate plant deployment for reclamation in northwestern Alberta and to provide...
Seed Shelters Improve Black Spruce Establishment and Survival on Upland Cutovers
Resource
This note presents fifth-year stocking, density, and height growth results for three lowland and three upland seed spot experiments that compare untreated/unsheltered black spruce seed spots with...
Seed Viability, Germination and Longevity of Selected Boreal Species: A Literature Review
Resource
The oil sands industry has been, and continues to be, an important economic driver of the Alberta and Canadian economies and associated activities continue to modify large tracts of land in the boreal...
Seedwhere: A Computer Tool for Tree Planting and Ecological Restoration
Resource
It is generally recognized that plants are genetically adapted to the prevailing climate. Planting stock is often moved across environmental gradients with little knowledge of the ecological risks...

Seismic Lines in the Boreal and Arctic Ecosystems of North America: Environmental Impacts, Challenges, and Opportunities
Resource
The oil and gas industry has grown significantly throughout the boreal and arctic ecosystems of North America. A major feature of the ecological footprint of oil and gas exploration is seismic lines...
Selective Handling Costs for Strip Mining Reclamation
Resource
One of the major tasks facing the coal mining industry today is dealing with environmental concerns. The requirement of selectively handling topsoil and subsoil for reclaiming plains strip mines is...
Semi-aquatic Mammals: Annotated Bibliography
Resource
Annotated bibliography contains 776 entries grouped under the species: muskrat, beaver, mink, and otter
Semisupervized Object Detection in UAV Images
Resource
This thesis investigates the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms for automatic detection of coniferous seedling data along Boreal seismic lines. In order to obtain a survival assessment and...
Service Delivery in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Since 1961
Resource
Population growth in Fort McMurray (from 1200 people to 25,000) necessitated the institution and continuous expansion of a service delivery system, including urban infrastructure and social services
