Enhanced Revegetation and Reclamation of Oil Sands Disturbed Sites Using Actinorhizal and Mycorrhizal Biotechnology
Resource
Preliminary results, after two growth seasons, show promise in the use of pre-inoculated seedlings in enhancing growth and establishment of alders and conifers on oil sands reclamation sites.
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...
Establishment and Vegetation Survey of 16 Pinus banksiana-dominated Permanent Plots for the Athabasca Oil Sands Ecological Monitoring Project in 1981
Resource
16 undisturbed, 5-ha, permanent plots dominated by Pinus banksiana (jack pine) were established along an impingement gradient of atmospheric emissions from oil sands processing plants
Estimate of the Maximum Probable Precipitation for Alberta River Basins
Resource
Point measurements of maximum depth showed that over 50% of the rainstorms occur in June and July, with only a small percentage in April (5.6) and September (10. 1).
Estimating Lichen Biomass in Forests and Peatlands of Northwestern Canada in a Changing Climate
Resource
Climate warming in the North could lead to lichen decline within critical woodland caribou habitat. We used repeat measurements of sixty-nine plots over ten years (2007–2008 and 2017–2018) to assess...

Evaluation of Substrate and Amendment Materials for Soil Reclamation at a Diamond Mine in the Northwest Territories, Canada
Resource
Mine waste materials with potential for use in soil construction at a diamond mine in the Northwest Territories were evaluated to address physical and chemical limitations for plant establishment...
Extreme Precipitation Reduces Reproductive Output of an Endangered Raptor
Resource
Frequency and intensity of extreme weather has increased against a backdrop of anthropogenic land change. Extreme rainfall during the breeding season reduced reproductive success of burrowing owls.
Factors Driving Territory Size and Breeding Success in a Threatened Migratory Songbird, the Canada Warbler
Resource
Successful conservation of migratory birds demands we understand how habitat factors on the breeding grounds influences breeding success. Multiple factors are known to directly influence breeding...
Faster and Farther: Wolf Movement on Linear Features and Implications for Hunting Behaviour
Resource
Predation by grey wolves Canis lupus has been identified as an important cause of boreal woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus caribou mortality, and it has been hypothesized that wolf use of human...
