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
Small Mammal Populations of Northeastern Alberta. I. Populations in Natural Habitats
Resource
Study of small mammal populations (small rodents and snowshoe hares), habitat use, small rodent diets, and small mammal damage in natural forest and successional communities from June 1978 to Nov 1979
Small Mammal Populations of Northeastern Alberta. II. Populations in Reclamation Areas
Resource
Study of small rodent populations, habitat use, and amounts of small mammal damage to woody-stemmed plants on reclamation areas of Suncor Inc. lease from July 1978 to November 1979
Soil Research Related to Revegetation of the Oil Sands Area Sub-Project VE4
Resource
Physical properties of soils and mined materials in relation to reclamation; Chemical properties of soils and methods of improving mined material for plant growth; Sulphur deposition and acidification
Soils Inventory of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area

Recurring patterns of soils, landforms, and vegetation were delineated. The information was transferred first to 1:50,000 preliminary maps and then to eight 1:126,720 maps which accompany this report
Soils Inventory of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area: Appendix 9.4 to AOSERP Report 122
Resource
Soil morphology, site descriptions, and physical and chemical data for 130 soil profiles from the AOSERP study area are presented.
Source or Sink? Meta-analysis Reveals Diverging Controls of Phosphorus Retention and Release in Restored and Constructed Wetlands
Resource
Wetland restoration is a popular nutrient management strategy for improving water quality in agricultural catchments. However, a wetland’s ability to retain phosphorus is highly variable and wetlands...
Spatial Patterns and Mass Balance of Sodium in Near-surface Peat of a Constructed Fen
Resource
At the Nikanotee Fen Watershed, a pioneering reclamation project in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region, elevated sodium (Na+) in the porewater of mine-waste materials has been shown to migrate to the fen...
Spatial Variation in Nutrient Dynamics Among Five Different Peatland Types in the Alberta Oil Sands Region
Resource
Wetlands are found extensively throughout the Western Boreal Plain, a region under pressure because of disturbance by the oil and gas industries. To understand how wetland systems may respond to...
Species Distribution and Habitat Relationships of Waterfowl in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Spring-staging totals for two surveys for this year were 1000 and 3600 ducks. Five fall-staging surveys revealed a total of from 11 000 to 24 000 ducks.
Studies in Recolonization of Stream Substrates by Aquatic Organisms
Resource
Colonization of limestone gravel, limestone gravel + organic matter, and limestone gravel from a river bed was followed over time to compare two possible stream reclamation substrates with a control
Subsurface Water Chemistry in Mined Land Reclamation; Key to Development of a Productive Post-mining Landscape
Resource
In reconstructing the landscape during reclamation the sequence and methods of placement of overburden material determine the post-mining subsurface-water chemistry. The type of material at various...
Supplemental Fisheries Life History Data for Selected Lakes and Streams in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Life history information and location data for the 672 fish, of 17 species, collected from rivers lakes are presented in table format
Symptomology and Threshold Levels of Air Pollutant Injury to Vegetation, 1979-80
Resource
A number of coniferous and deciduous species that had been growing on the Suncor tailings sand dike for five to seven years were fumigated with 0.34 ppm SO2 under controlled environmental conditions
Synecology and Autecology of Boreal Forest Vegetation in the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area
Resource
Ecological factors discussed for each species include soil and moisture requirements, reproduction, establishment, growth, successional roles, sensitivity to pollutants, and the associated species
Synthesis of Surface Water Hydrology
Resource
Runoff from within the study area contributes less than 10% of the average flow in the Athabasca River at the northern boundary of the study area. Snowfall constitutes about 30% of precipitation
