Mixing Characteristics of the Athabasca River Below Fort McMurray – Winter Conditions
Resource
Comprehensive assessment of mixing characteristics of the Athabasca River below Fort McMurray under ice-covered flow conditions. Two tracer tests conducted and analysed using recent theoretical models
Modelling the Circulation and Sediment Distribution in the Athabasca Delta Area
Resource
Potential for using satellite imagery to determine water quality parameters in the southwest end of Lake Athabasca and provide a mathematical model capable of simulating the circulation patterns
Monitoring Ecological Recovery of Reclaimed Wellsites: Protocols for Quantifying Recovery on Forested Lands
Resource
We developed a scientifically robust and financially sustainable monitoring protocol to enable a consistent assessment of ecological recovery at reclaimed industrial wellsites in forested lands
Moose and Predator Numerical Responses to Anthropogenic Features in the Alberta Oil Sands Region
Resource
Landscape disturbance is typically synonymous with habitat loss and fragmentation, and subsequent biodiversity loss. However, the effects of landscape disturbance vary among species and disturbance...
Moose, Caribou, and Fire: Have We Got it Right Yet?
Resource
Natural disturbance plays a key role in shaping community dynamics. Within Canadian boreal forests, the dominant form of natural disturbance is fire, and its effects are thought to influence the...
Moss Cellulose 18O Applied to Reconstruct Past Changes in Water Balance of a Boreal Wetland Complex, Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Overall, the study established existence of long-term groundwater source areas around the margins of the peatland, as well as contemporary permafrost thaw zones within the McClelland Wetland itself.
Motorized Activity on Legacy Seismic Lines: A Predictive Modeling Approach to Prioritize Restoration Efforts
Resource
Natural regeneration of seismic lines, cleared for hydrocarbon exploration, is slow and often hindered by vegetation damage, soil compaction, and motorized human activity. There is an extensive...
Mounding Treatments Set Back Bryophyte Recovery on Linear Disturbances in Treed Peatlands
Resource
Treed peatlands are dominated by bryophytes, particularly Sphagnum spp., which create the characteristic hummock-hollow microtopography. This, in turn, shapes the distribution of bryophyte communities...
Movement Responses by Wolves to Industrial Linear Features and Their Effect on Woodland Caribou in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Native Grass Breeding Program at Alberta Environmental Centre
Resource
A program to develop genotypes of native Alberta species for reclamation of disturbed lands was begun at the Alberta Environmental Centre in 1983. As a part of this larger program a native grass...
Native Prairie Plants in Phytoremediation: Sucesses, Limitations, and Knowledge Gaps
Resource
Phytoremediation, the use of plants to remove, degrade or stabilize sites contaminated with organic or toxic chemicals is gaining in popularity as an alternative and economical technique in...
Native Species Breeder Seed Consortium Workshop Summary Report
Resource
Summary of a stakeholder workshop to explore the potential benefits, design and funding models for a Native Breeder Seed Development Consortium
Native Species Research Program Workshop: Looking to the Future of Native Plants in Alberta: Summary Report
Resource
Report of workshops held to gather stakeholder input for the Business Case to redesign the Native Species Research Program
Natural Regeneration of Forest Vegetation on Legacy Seismic Lines in Boreal Habitats in Alberta’s Oil Sands Region
Resource
Mapping of oil reserves involves the use of seismic lines (linear disturbances) to determine both their location and extent. Conventional clearing techniques for seismic assessment have left a legacy...
Natural Regeneration on Seismic Lines Influences Movement Behaviour of Wolves and Grizzly Bears
Resource
Across the boreal forest of Canada, habitat disturbance is the ultimate cause of caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) declines. Habitat restoration is a focus of caribou recovery efforts, with a goal...
No Statistical Support for Wolf Control and Maternal Penning as Conservation Measures for Endangered Mountain Caribou
Resource
Abstract Mountain caribou, a behaviourally and genetically distinct set of ecotypes of the Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) restricted to the mountains of western Canada, have undergone...
