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)
Climatological Analysis of Recent Data from the Athabasca Oil Sands Area
Resource
Climatological analysis of recent data from the MAPS network of automatic meteorological data acquisition, forestry lookout stations, minisondes, pack surveys, and the Fort McMurray station
Control of Small Mammals on Reclamation Areas in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Control rodent damage by: (1) Planting trees and shrubs when rodent numbers are at the low or declining phase of their cycle, and (2) Manipulating rodent numbers by manipulating vegetative cover.
Critical Summer Foraging Tradeoffs in a Subarctic Ungulate
Resource
Summer diets are crucial for large herbivores in the subarctic and are affected by weather, harassment from insects and a variety of environmental changes linked to climate. Yet, understanding...
Defining Parasite Biodiversity at High Latitudes of North America: New Host and Geographic Records for Onchocerca Cervipedis (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) in Moose and Caribou
Resource
Onchocerca cervipedis is a filarioid nematode of cervids reported from Central America to boreal regions of North America. It is found primarily in subcutaneous tissues of the legs, and is more...
Demography of an Increasing Caribou Herd with Restricted Wolf Control: Caribou Demography and Wolves
Resource
A 2017 academic paper on the Fortymile herd focusing on wolf predation and the impact of overgrazing on herd size. The paper counters earlier opinions that wolf control (lethal and non-lethal) had a...
Deposition of Sulphur and its Influence on Soils in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Several field investigations were carried out to determine the amounts of sulphur deposited in rain, in rain washing off trees, and by direct absorption of SO2 by soil
Determining Kill Rates of Ungulate Calves by Brown Bears Using Neck-Mounted Cameras
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...
Differences in the Composition of Soils Under Open and Canopy Conditions at Two Sites Close-in to the Great Canadian Oil Sands Operation, Fort McMurray, Alberta
Resource
Soils sampled at sites 2.3 and 5.3 km south of the Great Canadian Oil Sands (GCOS) plant, Fort McMurray, respectively were found to differ statistically with reference to several macronutrients
Distribution, Abundance and Habitat Associations of Beavers, Muskrats, Mink and River Otters in the AOSERP Study Area, Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Synthesis of the published literature on the habitat preferences of beavers, muskrats, mink and river otters. Field studies during the late autumn of 1978 included aerial surveys and track counts
Ecological Bench-marking and Biomonitoring for Detection of Airborne Pollutant Effects on Vegetation and Soils
Resource
There was only very limited evidence of biological responses to increased pollutant content in spite of significantly higher pollutant levels in tissues close to existing industrial developments.
Ecological Habitat Mapping of the AOSERP Study Area: Phase 1
Resource
Classification system devised for mapping vegetation and surficial geology from 1:60,000 scale false colour infrared photographs; 1:50 000 base maps plus a vegetation and a surficial geology overlay
Ecological Habitat Mapping of the AOSERP Study Area (Supplement): Phase 1
Resource
Ground surveys of vegetation and surficial geology generally confirmed that the classification systems used in the mapping accurately described and defined the ecological habitat features
Ecological Studies of the Aquatic Invertebrates of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Describe basic ecology of aquatic benthic macrofauna of the Athabasca River and its major tributaries, the Muskeg and Steepbank rivers
Evaluation of the Baseline Hydrometric and Water Quality Networks in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Objective to evaluate the streamflow, suspended sediment, lake level, and water quality networks in the AOSERP study area so as to provide the basis for continuation and/or redirection.
Fall Fisheries Investigations in the Athabasca and Clearwater Rivers Upstream of Fort McMurray: Volume I
Resource
The major emphasis of these studies was to delineate actual and potential spawning areas for lake whitefish in the Athabasca and Clearwater rivers.
Fisheries and Aquatic Habitat Investigations in the Mackay River Watershed of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
General objective of this study was to describe the baseline states of the fish component of the MacKay River watershed, the largest basin on the west side of the Athabasca River
Fisheries and Habitat Investigations of Tributary Streams in the Southern Portion of the AOSERP Study Area: Volume I: Summary and Conclusions
Resource
Baseline states and aquatic habitats of major components of aquatic ecosystems in the southern portion of the AOSERP study area. Quantitative estimate of biological significance to the Athabasca River
