Application of Artificial Substrate Samplers to Assess Enrichment of Metals of Concern by River Floodwaters to Lakes Across the Peace-Athabasca Delta
Resource
Potential for downstream delivery of contaminants via Athabasca River floodwaters to lakes of the PAD has raised local to international concern. Here, we quantify enrichment of eight metals (Be, Cd...
Application of Stratified Random Census Procedures to the 1976 Aerial Moose Census in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
purpose of this project is to determine the population size of moose in the survey area with regard given to sex and age ratios and distribution according to habitat and seasonal climatic features
Approaches to the Design of a Biomonitoring Program Using Arthropods as Bioindicators for the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Several insect species and groups of insects are examined for their potential as biological indicators in the AOSERP area.
Aquatic Biological Investigations of the Muskeg River Watershed
Resource
The epilithic microbial and micro-invertebrate communities under conditions of light and shade were studied from April to November 1978
Aquatic Biophysical Inventory of Major Tributaries in the AOSERP Study Area. Volume I: Summary Report
Resource
16-24 species of fish were found in each watershed. Forage fish (lake chub, pearl dace, longnose dace, trout-perch, brook stickleback, slimy sculpin) and white and longnose suckers were most abundant
Aquatic Biophysical Inventory of Major Tributaries in the AOSERP Study Area. Volume II: Atlas
Resource
Maps showing fish collection locations, photos and details of the physical characteristics of nine streams within five watersheds (Firebag, Muskeg, Steepbank, MacKay, and Ells) in AOSERP study area
Aquatic Habitat Mapping of the AOSERP Study Area (1978): Assessment and Recommendations
Resource
During 1978, a number of aquatic projects were funded by AOSERP using a habitat inventory and mapping approach.
Aquatic System Workshop 20 and 21 September 1978
Resource
Philosophy and structure of aquatic system inventory as conducted by the BC Resource Analysis Branch. Additional topics included data management and examples of detailed interpretive projects
Assessing Peatland Restoration Success to Meet Alberta’s Peatland Reclamation Criteria
Resource
We conducted a full peatland assessment using the new criteria on a restored well pad near Peace River, Alberta. In 2012, mineral overburden was removed along with geo-textile and the buried peat was...
Assessing Spatial Factors Affecting Predation Risk to Boreal Caribou Calves: Implications for Management
Resource
In 2013, we completed the last year of data collection for the project. Across the project’s three years, we collected GPS data from 57 female caribou, 19 wolves (Canis lupus) and 19 black bears...
Assessment of Phytoremediation as an In-Situ Technique for Cleaning Oil-Contaminated Sites: Phase II Final Report
Resource
The cold climate and short growing season characteristic of the major oil and gas producing regions of western Canada make it particularly important to conduct phytoremediation research on plants...
Athabasca Oil Sands Precipitation Chemistry Studies: 1976-79 and 1981
Resource
Determine changes in the input rate of atmospheric trace substances into sensitive ecosystems and provide a database for the documentation of variations in chemical characteristics of precipitation
Athabasca River Modeling Studies (Phase I): Fort McMurray – Embarras
Resource
Once the composite model is calibrated and tested, it would predict mass loading or concentration of a parameter at any point along the study area for different future development scenarios
Baseline Condition of Jack Pine Biomonitoring Plots in the Athabasca Oil Sands Area, 1976-1977
Resource
No measureable air pollutant effect was observed on either vascular or lichen communities at any site even though significantly high tissue pollutant concentrations were documented within 10km of GCOS
Baseline Inventory of Aquatic Macrophyte Species Distributions in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Relationship between aquatic macrophyte growth and habitat factors found in the AOSERP study area is outlined, as are some implications of aquatic macrophyte inventory for management and revegetation
Baseline States of Organic Constituents in the Athabasca River System Upstream of Fort McMurray
Resource
Investigations were carried out on the Athabasca River upstream of Fort McMurray to determine the baseline quantities of organic constituents and their contribution to the organic water quality
Behaviour and Calving Success of Boreal Caribou in Relation to Oil and Gas Development
Resource
Anthropogenic disturbance like oil and gas development is thought to negatively affect boreal caribou through displacement and degradation of habitat, and through creation of favourable conditions for...
Beyond Fill and Spill: Hydrological Connectivity in a Sub-Arctic Bog-Fen-Tributary Complex in the Hudson Bay Lowlands, Canada
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...
Biomonitoring for the Effects of Air Pollution in the AOSERP Study Area. Report of a Workshop
