Environmental and Management Drivers of Carbon Dioxide and Methane Emissions From Actively-Extracted Peatlands in Alberta, Canada
Resource
The installation of drainage ditches and removal of vegetation in preparation for vacuum harvesting alters the carbon dynamics of peatlands. However, we lack the measurements to understand the spatial...
Environmental Controls on Carbon Sequestration in a Saline, Boreal, Peat-Forming Wetland in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region
Resource
Saline boreal fens represent potential models for post-mining landscape reclamation in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region (AOSR) (Canada) where wetland construction is challenged by salinization. One of...
Environmental Controls on CO2 Exchange Along a Salinity Gradient in a Saline Boreal Fen in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region
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...
Evaluating the Hydrological Response of a Boreal Fen Following the Removal of a Temporary Access Road
Resource
Removal and reclamation should be considered as a worthwhile venture for roads that extend through fens and are no longer in use.
Factors that Result in Sustainable Forest Ecosystem Development on Padded Sites in Peatlands: Pilot Study
Resource
The pilot study validated the research questions, sampling design, measurement and data analysis methods developed for a large‐scale study, with some minor amendments.
Graminoids Vary in Functional Traits, Carbon Dioxide and Methane Fluxes in a Restored Peatland: Implications for Modeling Carbon Storage
Resource
One metric of peatland restoration success is the re-establishment of a carbon sink, yet considerable uncertainty remains around the timescale of carbon sink trajectories. Conditions post-restoration...
Groundwater in Peat and Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands are wetlands with soil comprised of undecomposed remains of plants that accumulate in such a way that both responds to and controls the flux and storage of surface water and groundwater, as...
Guide to Variance Justifications for Reclamation Certification of Wellsites and Associated Facilities: Stakeholder Review and Field Verification
Resource
Practitioners tested the Guide to Variance Justifications on four of those sites; three had been previously approved and one had been submitted and was pending a decision.
How Mounds are Made Matters: Seismic Line Restoration Techniques Affect Peat Physical and Chemical Properties Throughout the Peat Profile
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...
Identification and Characterization of Abandoned Padded Wellsites Using Remote Sensing
Resource
In 2018, the Petroleum Technology Alliance of Canada (PTAC) initiated a multi-stage project on the reclamation certification process for sites that were constructed using imported mineral soil pads in...
Impact of Linear Disturbances on Boreal Wetland Carbon and Greenhouse Gas Exchange
Resource
This presentation provides and overview of linear disturbance impacts on carbon and greenhouse gas exchange and links various research posters also presented at the NAIT 7th Seminar on Linear...
Impacts of Seismic Line Restoration on CO2, CH4, and Biomass
Resource
This thesis explores how seismic line mounding treatments affect vegetation cover and composition, above- and belowground biomass, and carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) fluxes in the first two...
Integrated Surface-subsurface Water and Solute Modeling of a Reclaimed In-pit Oil Sands Mine: Effects of Ground Freezing and Thawing
Resource
The upland and wetlands substrate in reclaimed oil sands landforms will be constructed of post-mining materials with an objective of replicating the landscape and hydrology of the surrounding boreal...
