An Aerometric Program for Effects Studies in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region
Resource
The result of this review was a plan for a five-year biophysical monitoring program to provide the necessary scientific and technical information upon which to base an effective regulatory approach.
An Analysis of Benthic Invertebrate and Water Quality Monitoring Data from the Athabasca River
Resource
Water quality of the Athabasca River within the oil sands area has been monitored since 1976. Several studies of benthic invertebrate communities have been conducted to provide descriptive information
An Assessment of Benthic Secondary Production in the Muskeg River of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
level of secondary production in the Muskeg River and tested the validity of hypotheses generated by Crowther and Griffing (1979) regarding the trophic structure and function of the Muskeg River
An Assessment of Sampling Designs Using SCR Analyses to Estimate Abundance of Boreal Caribou
Resource
Abstract Accurately estimating abundance is a critical component of monitoring and recovery of rare and elusive species. Spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are an increasingly popular method for...
An Assessment of the Adequacy of Baseline Data Relevant to the Documentation and Evaluation of the Impacts of Oil Sands Development on Black Bear in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Objectives of this critique are to evaluate whether or not the state of baseline knowledge is adequate to assess the impacts of large developments on the black bear population in the AOSERP study area
An Assessment of the Adequacy of Baseline Data Relevant to the Documentation and Evaluation of the Impacts of Oil Sands Developments on Large Mammals in the AOSERP Study Area.
Resource
An analysis of the applied research necessary to allow evaluation of the effects of oil sands development on large mammals by a review and evaluation of the available baseline data
An Ecophysiological Investigation of the Jackpine Woodland with Reference to Revegetation of Mined Sands
Resource
This project, via field and laboratory tests, was designed to determine the limits to growth of native and non-native graminoid and woody species under moisture and nutrient stress conditions.
An Environmental Study of the Athabasca Tar Sands: Report and Recommendations to Alberta Department of the Environment
Resource
Opportunity for comprehensive planning of orderly industrial development in the Bituminous Sands Area. Plans should be formulated for regional development to provide optimal human habitat
An Environmental Study of the Athabasca Tar Sands: Supplementary Working Papers
Resource
A collection of technical working papers that helped inform the final report and recommendations
An Iinterim Report on the Insectivorous Animals in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Distribution, abundance in the AOSERP study area, food habits, habitat preferences, and foraging behaviour were examined for over 100 arthropod families and 153 vertebrate species
An Intensive Study of the Fish Fauna of the Muskeg River Watershed of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Study of the fish fauna in the Muskeg River commenced in 1976 with the general objective of describing the baseline states of this resource in the watershed and providing a quantitative estimate
An Intensive Study of the Fish Fauna of the Steepbank River Watershed of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
The resident fish fauna of the Steepbank River consists largely of pearl dace, brook stickleback, lake chub, longnose dace and slimy sculpin.
An Intensive Surface Water Quality Study of the Muskeg River Watershed: Volume 1: Water Chemistry
Resource
Seasonal and areal variations in significant water quality parameters in the Muskeg River basin of northeastern Alberta are described
An Observational Study of Fog in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
A fog study was implemented during 1977-1978 to provide more detailed observations of fog occurrences, especially during the winter when the possibility of ice fog exists
An Overview Assessment of In Situ Development in the Athabasca Deposit
Resource
Provide a preliminary understanding of the state of the art of in situ bitumen recovery technology, the most probable application and rate of application of that technology to the Athabasca deposit
An Overview of Pipelining
Resource
As an overview to pipelining in Alberta, prior to 1976 there was no requirement for operators to conserve topsoil or ensure growth capability. However, with the passing of Alberta Regulation 207/76...
Analysis of Fur Production Records for Registered Traplines in the AOSERP Study Area, 1970-75
Resource
Fur value produced per square kilometre averaged $7.58 ($19.64/mi2) but ranged more than 500-fold, with much variation seeming attributable to trapper effort. 5% of traplines reported nil catches
