Paleolimnological Assessment of Past Hydro-ecological Variation at a Shallow Hardwater Lake in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Before Potential Onset of Industrial Development
Resource
Effective environmental monitoring requires knowledge of inherent natural variation. In the absence of pre-development monitoring of aquatic ecosystems, paleolimnological approaches have been...
Partitioning Forest-Floor Respiration into Source Based Emissions in a Boreal Forested Bog: Response to Experimental Drought
Resource
Northern peatlands store globally significant amounts of soil carbon that could be released to the atmosphere under drier conditions induced by climate change. We measured forest floor respiration (R...
Petroleum Exploration Increases Methane Emissions from Northern Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands are globally significant sources of atmospheric methane (CH4). In the northern hemisphere, extensive geologic exploration activities have occurred to map petroleum deposits. In peatlands...
Preferential Recharge in a Reclaimed Tailings Sand Upland: Implications on Solute Flushing
Resource
Given the potential for moisture limited conditions due to the sub-humid regional climate, ensuring sufficient water availability in these landscapes is a principal concern. This research demonstrates...

Restoration Approach Influences Carbon Exchange at In-Situ Oil Sands Exploration Sites in East-Central Alberta
Resource
This article outlines the results of monitoring two restored oil sands exploration sites, and discusses the effectiveness of treatments on tree recovery and greenhouse gas emissions.
Restoration of Boreal Peatland Impacted by an In-situ Oil Sands Well-pad 1: Vegetation Response
Resource
The prompt introduction and establishment of peatland donor species through moss layer transfer technique was crucial to the overall re-establishment of peatland vegetation.
Roads Impact Tree and Shrub Productivity in Adjacent Boreal Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands in the western boreal plains of Canada are important ecosystems as they store over two percent of global terrestrial carbon. However, in recent decades, many of these peatlands have been...
