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

2 sites have been established for the study of stored peat, at Evansburg and on the Syncrude Canada Ltd. lease at Mildred Lake, Alberta. Peat physical, chemical and microbiological properties tested

The major emphasis of these studies was to delineate actual and potential spawning areas for lake whitefish in the Athabasca and Clearwater rivers.

Data on regional water quality, hydrology, physical and chemical limnology, and fisheries resources of the lakes and streams within the AOSERP area. Extensive bibliography of the pertinent literature

A Toxicological Index is proposed to outline the toxicological significance of specific inorganic elements to mammals and aquatic organisms. Index provides a list of elements of environmental concern

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

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

Several insect species and groups of insects are examined for their potential as biological indicators in the AOSERP area.

Seasonal fluctuations in algal species and numbers were influenced by a myriad of interacting factors as were standing crop fluctuations. Numerically, cyanophycean algae dominated, followed by diatoms

Largest mean standing crops for the June to November period occurred in the Steepbank, Ells, and Hangingstone Rivers, while largest mean production rates occurred in the Ells and Muskeg rivers.
