The Beaver Creek site: A Prehistoric Stone Quarry on Syncrude Lease #22
Resource
Archaeological reconnaissance on Syncrude Lease #17 noted that over 67% of the total stone assemblage recovered from 28 localities consists of quartzite derived from the Beaver Creek Quarry
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
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 Direct and Habitat-mediated Influence of Climate on the Biogeography of Boreal Caribou in Canada
Resource
Effective species conservation efforts require insight into whether a species’ extent of occurrence may shift due to changing climate, habitat loss, or both. The extent of occurrence of the threatened...
