Certification of Mineral Soil Pads in the Boreal Region – A Path Forward. Working Session Summary
Resource
Workshop summary of discussions to inform a path forward for a policy framework that provided clarity on the process to request a change in land use and the criteria for evaluating the requests.
Certification of Mineral Soil Pads in the Boreal Region – Decision Framework and Support Tools
Resource
Factors to consider when assessing the ecological implications of a change in land use request (hydrology, cumulative effects and regional considerations, upland function, status of the borrow pit ...
Changes in Geographical Runoff Generation in Regions Affected by Climate and Resource Development: A Case Study of the Athabasca River
Resource
The goal of this study is to enhance the understanding of the regional role of the lower Athabasca Basin areas in overall runoff delivery to the downstream Peace-Athabasca Delta. The Cold-regions...
Characterization of Stored Peat in the Alberta Oil Sands Area
Resource
Physical, chemical, and microbiological properties of stored materials were compared with those of fibric moss peat, mesic moss peat, and mesic fen peat samples from undisturbed sites
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 Change is the Primary Driver of White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) Range Expansion at the Northern Extent of its Range; Land Use is Secondary
Resource
Quantifying the relative influence of multiple mechanisms driving recent range expansion of non-native species is essential for predicting future changes and for informing adaptation and management...
Climate-informed Forecasts Reveal Dramatic Local Habitat Shifts and Population Uncertainty for Northern Boreal Caribou
Resource
Most research on boreal populations of Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) has been conducted in areas of high anthropogenic disturbance. However, a large portion of the species’ range...
Cluster Planting: Early Enhancement of Structural Diversity in a Reclaimed Boreal Forest
Resource
Abstract: Planting trees is an important step in re-establishing functioning forest ecosystems after industrial land disturbances. Conventional planting practices create forests with evenly spaced...
Coarse Woody Debris Increases Microbial Functional Diversity in Reclaimed Soils
Resource
Forest floor mineral soil mix had significantly greater soil microbial functional diversity than peat mineral soil mix. CWD increased microbial biomass and microbial functional diversity in both soil
Comparison of Pre-fire and Post-fire Space Use Reveals Varied Responses by Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in the Boreal Shield
Resource
Abstract By regulating successional dynamics in Canada’s boreal forest, fires can affect the distribution of the Threatened woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)). Caribou tend...
