Bringing the Forest to the Office: An Introduction to the COSIA 360 Tours Project
Resource
This document is an introduction to a 360 tours project Toolkit developed by Canada's Oil Sands Innovation Alliance (COSIA) led by Cenovus Energy Inc., in collaboration with Natural Resources Canada...
Carbon Gas Exchange, Primary Production and Litter Decomposition of a Restored Fen on a Former Well-Pad
Resource
Over 500,000 oil and gas wells have been drilled in Alberta. Recently updated peatland restoration criteria for well-pads creates incentive for peatland restoration, but little is known about...
Carbon Stocks and Fluxes From a Boreal Conifer Swamp: Filling a Knowledge Gap for Understanding the Boreal C Cycle
Resource
The carbon (C) dynamics of boreal coniferous swamps are a largely understudied component of wetland carbon cycling. We investigated the above- and below-ground carbon stocks and growing season carbon...
Caribou Recovery Pilot Project
Project
Contact
Organization:
The Caribou Recovery Pilot Project has been established to further develop the concept of a predator-free fenced area to support a small breeding population of woodland caribou (the Pilot). The Pilot...
Caribou Recovery Pilot Project, Aboriginal Engagement Report
Resource
The primary objective of the Pilot is to establish and maintain a small breeding population of caribou in a fenced predator-free exclosure within their natural habitat in northeast Alberta. The intent...
Changes to the Hydrology of a Boreal Fen Following the Placement of an Access Road and Below Ground Pipeline
Resource
Study Region A channel fen in the Athabasca Oil Sands Area, Alberta, Canada Study Focus We assessed the hydrological changes to the hydrology of a moderate-rich fen after the construction of a road...
Changes to the Hydrology of a Boreal Fen Following the Placement of an Access Road and Below Ground Pipeline
Resource
We assessed the hydrological changes to the hydrology of a moderate-rich fen after the construction of a road (perpendicular to flow) in 2003 and a pipeline (obliquely to flow) in 2011. New...
Characterizing Spatial and Temporal Variations in Nutrient and CO2 Dynamics Within and Across Peatlands in the Western Boreal Plain, Canada
Resource
This thesis is comprising two studies characterizing nutrient dynamics within the Athabasca Oil Sands region (AOS) of Alberta. The first study simultaneously examined and compared nutrient (nitrogen...
Climate, Land Cover and Topography: Essential Ingredients in Predicting Wetland Permanence
Resource
Wetlands in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) are forecast to retract in their ranges due to climate change, and potholes that typically contain ponded water year-round, which support a larger...
CO2 Uptake Decreased and CH4 Emissions Increased in First Two Years of Peatland Seismic Line Restoration
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...
Consistent but Delayed Timing of Precipitation Affects Community Composition of Prairie Pothole Birds and Aquatic Macroinvertebrates, but not Wetland Plants
Resource
The hydroperiod (i.e., the length of time ponded water is present) of prairie potholes is sensitive to climate change. Because snowmelt runoff is the largest contributor to ponded water amounts, a...
Controls on Plot-Scale Growing Season CO2 and CH4 Fluxes in Restored Peatlands: Do They Differ From Unrestored and Natural Sites?
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...
COSIA In-Situ Oil Sands Shared Practices for Working in and Around Wetlands
Resource
This report compiles a toolbox of shared practices currently in use by COSIA companies, or which have been used but were found to be unsuccessful.
