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
Techniques for the Control of Small Mammal Damage to Plants: A Review
Resource
This report represents the findings of a literature review carried out on small mammal damage to revegetation areas and on small mammal control procedures
The 1977 Fort McMurray AOSERP Moose Census: Analysis and Interpretation of Results
Resource
The 1977 moose population of 320 moose was contained in an estimated 196 groups distributed on 23 percent of the square-mile study area quadrats at the time of census (363± 30% estimated in 1976)
The 1981 Snowpack Survey in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
The amounts of sulphate and nitrate deposited in the snow within 25 km of the oil sands plants have increased by 88 and 27% respectively, since the previous study in 1978
The Acute Toxicity of Saline Groundwater and of Vanadium to Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates

Resource
Provide a problem analysis of the goal to determine the assimilative capacity of the Athabasca River with special regard to organics
The Climatology of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area
Resource
Winters are cold with relatively little snow. About two-thirds of the precipitation falls in the summer months with several major rainstorms generally accounting for much of the seasonal rain
The Distribution, Foraging Behaviour, and Allied Activities of the White Pelican in the Athabasca Oil Sands Area
Resource
From mid to late summer 1977 an investigation was made of the distribution and foraging of White Pelicans in the Birch Mountains linked with a breeding investigation undertaken at the pelican rookery

Resource
The ecology (distribution, demography, habitat preferences and food habits) of five of the species of small mammals common to the Alberta Oil Sands are described
The Ecology of Macrobenthic Invertebrate Communities in Hartley Creek, Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Hartley Creek, a tributary of the Muskeg River, has rich and diverse benthic fauna and is dominated numerically by Chironomidae but by Trichoptera in terms of biomass.
