Reclamation of the land surface is what makes non-renewable resource developments sustainable. We must continue to strive to improve our science so that we can prove to regulators and the public that

LFH salvaged with small amounts of upper horizon mineral soil for land reclamation has proven to be an important source of seeds and vegetative propagules for forest plant communities

We developed a scientifically robust and financially sustainable monitoring protocol to enable a consistent assessment of ecological recovery at reclaimed industrial wellsites in forested lands

This glossary was prepared to provide those working in the field of reclamation in Alberta with a standardized set of definitions for reclamation terms.

NRCan pilot science projects have proven that Earth Observation can provide relevant and valuable information to inform and enhance monitoring and support regulatory frameworks

Consolidate information on known methods of reclaiming wildlife habitat in the mountain and foothills biomes and to develop methods of assessing reclamation success for certification

Effects of amendments on growth of trees and grasses and establishment of mycorrhizae in coal and oil sands reconstructed soils

Soil microorganisms and their activities are the major vectors in the decomposition of plant litter and the subsequent transformation and flow of such essential plant nutrients as nitrogen and phospho

Purpose was: to obtain information on propagation of certain native and exotic woody plants; synthesize the information at the species level by method of propagation; and recommend further studies
