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.
Resource
12 to 40.% of streamflow during the late spring, summer and fall months consists of groundwater; the remainder comes from lake and muskeg drainage, as well as direct precipitation on stream channels

Biomass of insects collected averaged 0.82 g oven-dry weight m-2, and ranged from 0.28 (Jack Pine forest) to 3.11 (fen) grams. Use of insects as environmental monitors is discussed
Resource
Migrations of non-resident fish from the Athabasca River into the Muskeg River watershed were monitored through the use of a two-way counting fence. 6153 fish passed through the upstream trap

Preliminary experimental and survey research on benthic communities affected by selected hydrocarbons and tailings sludge produced by existing oil sands mining and upgrading operations
Resource
Artificial substrates were employed, water chemistry parameters measured, taxonomic identifications carried out, and productivity measurements conducted to elucidate bacterial and algal productivity

A three-year inventory of selected rare, endangered and sensitive bird species in the Athabasca Oil Sands area was completed in the late summer of 1977. Aerial and ground surveys were conducted
Resource
A water balance for the Athabasca River was developed which accounted for all the major withdrawals and discharges to this river. Current annual rate of withdrawal from the river is 2.34m3/s
