Deposition of Sulphur and its Influence on Soils in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Several field investigations were carried out to determine the amounts of sulphur deposited in rain, in rain washing off trees, and by direct absorption of SO2 by soil
Design and Performance Enhancement of Mine Drainage Settling Ponds in Alberta
Resource
There has been increasing concern in recent years regarding the environmental impact of sediment laden runoffs discharged from land disturbing activities in Alberta. Settling ponds represent the most...
Design of an Oil Waste Land Treatment Facility for the Cold Lake Production Project

Detection of an Invisible Foe: Annosus Root and Butt Rot
Resource
Annosus root and butt rot was first reported in Quebec in 1989. The causal fungus enters a pine stand by colonizing the surface of freshly cut stumps. The disease spreads through contact between the...
Detection of Coniferous Seedlings in UAV Imagery
Resource
Rapid assessment of forest regeneration using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is likely to decrease the cost of establishment surveys in a variety of resource industries. This research tests the...
Determining Best Protocols for Wild Seed Collection and Methods for Calculating Seed Value
Resource
The purpose of the study is to determine best protocols for collecting, processing, storing, and germinating seed from local, wild sources for approximately 50 species. These are critical aspects in...
Developing a Design Basis Memorandum for Landform Design
Resource
This document provides guidance on how to develop a design basis memorandum (DBM) for landform design. The DBM is intended to be used for the design and assessment of individual mining landforms and...
Developing a Reclamation Costing Framework for the Athabasca Oil Sands
Resource
The Athabasca oil sands are a significant component of the economy in Alberta. However, they also represent a large environmental risk. At the end of mining operations, companies are expected to begin...
Developing the Hollinger Open Pit Mine – Leaving a Positive Legacy
Resource
The concept of mining the residual gold left by underground mines is not new within Timmins as it has been done at the Dome Mine and Pamour Mine. Given that the Hollinger Mine was the most prolific...

Resource
Initiated in 1972, an on-going reclamation study has been conducted by the Soils Department of the Alberta Research Council on behalf of Smoky Coal Ltd. at their open-pit mine operations near Grande...
Development of a Recovery Index to Quantify Ecological Recovery of Reclaimed Wellsites
Resource
Long-term monitoring of some sites would ultimately be needed to show that recovering wellsites are on a trajectory that consistently leads to full recovery.
Development of a Toxin-Mediated Predator-Prey Model Applicable to Aquatic Environments in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region
Resource
Previous work has considered the effect of a toxin on the population dynamics of a single trophic level, such as fish, we focus on the impacts of toxins on the population dynamics of aquatic food webs
Development of an Extraction Method for Estimating Phytoaccessible Fractions of Bromacil and Tebuthiuron
Resource
Bromacil and tebuthiuron are herbicides used from the 1960s to 1990s on industrial sites to control vegetation. Approximately 61,750 sites are considered contaminated when comparing total herbicide...
