Circulation of Water and Sediment in the Athabasca Delta Area
Resource
Describe how water and sediment from the Athabasca River are distributed through the delta system and how they circulate and mix in Lake Athabasca and flow through to the Slave River (re contaminants)
Clay Tailings from Alberta Oil Sands and Other Sources. A Review
Resource
Treatment and disposal procedures for oil sands tailings, as well as for clay tailings from other industries, are discussed and general background to the disposal problems is provided
Climate Change Alone Cannot Explain Boreal Caribou Range Recession in Quebec Since 1850
Resource
Abstract The contraction of species range is one of the most significant symptoms of biodiversity loss worldwide. While anthropogenic activities and habitat alteration are major threats for several...
Commercializing Remote Sensing Technology for Environmental Management: Moving from Data to Decision
Resource
The development of integrated geomatics and remote sensing technologies for environmental management holds promise to meet economic diversification and effective environmental management.
Community Level Physiological Profiling for Monitoring Oil Sands Impacts
Resource
Objective of the project was to better understand and describe the potential for CLPP to provide meaningful assessments of aquatic ecosystems in the oil sands region of Alberta to various stakeholders
Comparison of Sampling Techniques to Monitor Stream Amphibian Communities in Forested Regions of Alberta
Resource
Objective was to compare the effectiveness of four commonly used sampling techniques (pitfall traps, funnel traps, visual searches and call surveys) to detect stream amphibian communities.
Comprehensive Report on Operational Reclamation Techniques in the Mineable Oil Sands Region
Resource
This report identifies and summarizes reclamation practices that have been used in the mineable Oil Sands region and coal mining industry over the last 40+ years.
Decreased Carbon Accumulation Feedback Driven by Climate‐Induced Drying of Two Southern Boreal Bogs over Recent Centuries
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...
Densified Fluid Fine Tails and Oil Sands Process Water - an Extension of the 2017 Study - Final Report
Resource
A mesocosm study was undertaken to support the development of end pit lake technology. The mesocosms were exposed to OSPW (Oil Sands Process affected Water) and dFFT (densified Fluid Fine Tails).
Densified Fluid Fine Tails and Oil Sands Process Water: A Screening Study - Final Report - Study Plan Number: MES-2017-1
Resource
This study utilized mesocosms to investigate the effects of oil sands process water (OSPW) and densified fluid fine tails (dFFT) on aquatic ecosystems to support development of end pit lake technology

Development and Application of Soil Quality Criteria for Alberta's Resource Extraction Industries
Resource
Soil quality criteria for Alberta's resource extraction industries were prepared by the Soil Quality Criteria Subcommittee of the Alberta Soils Advisory Committee. The document produced was intended...
Development of Three Slender Wheatgrass Reclamation Varieties
Resource
Three mid- to high-elevation lines of slender wheatgrass were selected and released as varieties for use in reclamation
Development of Two Alpine Bluegrass Reclamation Varieties
Resource
Two lines of alpine bluegrass were selected and released as varieties for use in reclamation
Dewatering Fine Tails by Evaporation: A Mathematical Modelling Approach
Resource
A one dimensional approach was used to model the evaporation process from fine tails. Understanding the complex interactions among the solids, water and external atmospheric demand is required
Digital Technology Assessment for Reclamation Certification in Alberta
Resource
Earth observation (EO), remote sensing (RS), and other digital technologies are emerging as powerful tools for monitoring the environment and collecting environmental data. These technologies can be...
Disturbance-mediated changes to boreal mammal spatial networks in industrializing landscapes
Resource
Abstract Compound effects of anthropogenic disturbances on wildlife emerge through a complex network of direct responses and species interactions. Land-use changes driven by energy and forestry...
