A Before-After Dose-Response (BADR) Terrestrial Biological Monitoring Framework for the Oil Sands
Resource
One of the theme areas monitored within the OSM program is terrestrial biodiversity, known programmatically as Terrestrial Biological Monitoring (TBM). Biodiversity refers to the diversity of wild...
A Tale of Two Roads: Consequences of Peat Conditions and Construction Practices on Peatland Effects, Reclaimability, and Best Practice Development
Resource
This talk explores what needs to inform road construction decisions, including evaluating where roads should be built and what practices should be used based on peat conditions.
Comparison of Site Preparation and Revegetation Strategies within a Sphagnum-Dominated Peatland Following Removal of an Oil Well Pad

COSIA In-Situ Oil Sands Shared Practices for Working in and Around Wetlands
Resource
This report compiles a toolbox of shared practices currently in use by COSIA companies, or which have been used but were found to be unsuccessful.
Demographic Declines Over Time and Variable Responses of Breeding Bird Populations to Human Footprint in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region, Alberta, Canada
Resource
Habitat loss and disturbance from industrial resource development may be contributing to declines in boreal bird populations. We applied hierarchical multi-species models to data from 31 bird species...
Monitoring Avian Productivity and Survivorship in the Oil Sands Region of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
The MAPS protocol (Monitoring Avian Productivity and Survivorship) was applied in a 2011 pilot program in the boreal forest in the oil sands region
Planning for Wetland Function and Reclamation Success in Road Design
Resource
This research poster describes an overview of technical methods, peat properties and considerations, and development outcomes for linear feature (road) construction planning and development. Presented...
Spatial Variation in Nutrient Dynamics Among Five Different Peatland Types in the Alberta Oil Sands Region
Resource
Wetlands are found extensively throughout the Western Boreal Plain, a region under pressure because of disturbance by the oil and gas industries. To understand how wetland systems may respond to...
