Defining Disturbance and Recovery: The Influence of Landscape Specific Ecological Responses to Oil and Gas Linear Disturbances in North Yukon
Resource
Across northern Canada evidence of oil and gas seismic exploration remains from the 1950's to current day. While many of these linear features are still visible, others can no longer be seen. Research...
Demand for Nonprovisioning Ecosystem Services as a Driver of Change in the Canadian Boreal Zone
Resource
The Canadian boreal zone provides ecosystem services from local to global scales. Either directly or indirectly, demands for these services have and will continue to serve as drivers of change in the...
Design and Performance Enhancement of Mine Drainage Settling Ponds in Alberta
Resource
There has been increasing concern in recent years regarding the environmental impact of sediment laden runoffs discharged from land disturbing activities in Alberta. Settling ponds represent the most...

Do Highway Rights-of-way Have to be Dull?
Resource
Highway rights-of-way in Alberta, and elsewhere, are dull because they consist of limited, non-native species mixes that are frequently mowed. These rights-of-way are therefore not much more exciting...
