Objectives were to establish grass, shrub and tree species for evaluation of their response, particularly their reproduction response, to the climatic and edaphic conditions north of Fort McMurray
Performance of Vegetation on Mined Sands
Resource
2nd year of field work and intensive laboratory and greenhouse studies contribute to a much fuller understanding of the factors related to the very successful growth of Jack Pine on sand
Physical Description of Selected Tributary Mouths and Sheltered Backwaters of the Athabasca and Clearwater Rivers
Resource
Physical changes evident at tributary confluences were Secchi visibility, current velocity, and flow direction. At the tributary mouths, sand and silt substrates were predominant in sheltered areas
Physiology and Mechanisms of Airborne Pollutant Injury to Vegetation, 1979-80
Resource
Appreciable changes in biochemical functions in an epiphytic lichen, Evernia mesomorpha, were observed in response to controlled SO2 exposures even at a very low SO2 concentration (0.1 ppm)
Planning for Soil Conservation by the Oil and Gas Industry
Resource
The two types of industry disturbances that have effected most of the agricultural land are the construction of wellsites and the roads to these wellsites and the construction of pipelines. There are...
Population Dynamics of Caribou Shaped by Glacial Cycles Before the Last Glacial Maximum
Resource
Pleistocene glacial cycles influenced the diversification of high- latitude wildlife species through recurrent periods of range contraction, isolation, divergence, and expansion from refugia and...
Potential Productivity of Black Bear Habitat of the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Crude average bear density for the AOSERP study area, including water areas, was 0.18 per km2 assuming total avoidance of muskeg areas and 0.25 per km2 assuming use of muskeg
