Measured Concentrations of Metals and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Plants, Berries and Soil Located North of Fort McMurray, Alberta
Resource
The objective of this study is to measure and characterize concentrations of metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in plants, berries and soil predominantly located north of Fort McMurray
Measuring Vegetation Height in Linear Disturbances in the Boreal Forest with UAV Photogrammetry
Resource
Monitoring vegetation recovery typically requires ground measurements of vegetation height, which is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Recently, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have shown great...
Microbial Populations in the Athabasca River
Resource
Direct epifluorescence method has been adapted for counting bacteria in the sometimes turbid water of the Athabasca River and this method has been used to quantify planktonic bacteria.
Mixing Characteristics of the Athabasca River Below Fort McMurray – Winter Conditions
Resource
Comprehensive assessment of mixing characteristics of the Athabasca River below Fort McMurray under ice-covered flow conditions. Two tracer tests conducted and analysed using recent theoretical models
Modelling the Circulation and Sediment Distribution in the Athabasca Delta Area
Resource
Potential for using satellite imagery to determine water quality parameters in the southwest end of Lake Athabasca and provide a mathematical model capable of simulating the circulation patterns
Moose Lake Access Management Plan
Resource
This plan provides land-use resource development direction for industry and regulators for the Moose Lake 10km zone, a planning area located approximately 100 kilometers northwest of Fort McMurray in...
Mycorrhizal Studies Regarding the Reclamation of Oil Sand Tailings: Production and Outplanting of Jack Pine Seedlings and Amounts of VA- and Ectomycorrhizal Inoculum in Stockpiled Peat
Resource
Produce mycorrhizal jack pine seedlings in the greenhouse and initiate a field study on the Syncrude dyke on the effect of different ectomycorrhizal fungi on the growth of jack pine
Native Employment Patterns in Alberta’s Athabasca Oil Sands Region
Resource
Patterns and trends in native employment and employment training; gaps and ambiguities about employment patterns and employment training programs, and research recommendations
Native Plant Revegetation Guidelines for Alberta
Resource
These guidelines provide a clear, consistent and integrated information package about using native plant materials throughout Alberta where the revegetation goal is to re-establish a native plant...
Natural Regeneration of Forest Vegetation on Legacy Seismic Lines in Boreal Habitats in Alberta’s Oil Sands Region
Resource
Mapping of oil reserves involves the use of seismic lines (linear disturbances) to determine both their location and extent. Conventional clearing techniques for seismic assessment have left a legacy...
Natural Regeneration on Seismic Lines Influences Movement Behaviour of Wolves and Grizzly Bears
Resource
Across the boreal forest of Canada, habitat disturbance is the ultimate cause of caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) declines. Habitat restoration is a focus of caribou recovery efforts, with a goal...
Nested Population Structure of Threatened Boreal Caribou Revealed by Network Analysis
Resource
Delineating relevant local populations of widely distributed species is a common challenge in conservation ecology. Caribou and reindeer ( Rangifer tarandus) are in general decline throughout their...
