Evaluating the Hydrological Response of a Boreal Fen Following the Removal of a Temporary Access Road
Resource
Removal and reclamation should be considered as a worthwhile venture for roads that extend through fens and are no longer in use.
Evaluating the Use of Hair as a Non-invasive Indicator of Trace Mineral Status in Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou)
Resource
Trace mineral imbalances can have significant effects on animal health, reproductive success, and survival. Monitoring their status in wildlife populations is, therefore, important for management and...
Exploring Co-Reclamation: Gesturing Towards Intercultural Collaboration and the Renewal of Indigenous Cultural Landscapes after Oil Sands Extraction in the Fort McKay First Nation Traditional Territory, Treaty 8, Alberta, Canada
Resource
The sustainability of a landscape and its host community post-mining depends on careful and effective mine closure and reclamation planning. Such planning has the potential to support the renewal of...
Field Measurement of Wind Erosion in Southern Alberta: Preliminary Results
Resource
During the 1980's, the impact of frequent droughts and consequent erosion of topsoil by the wind have become of increasing concern to the agricultural community of southern Alberta. This paper...
Functional Response of Wolves to Human Development Across Boreal North America
Resource
Study testing wolf responses to infrastructure related to natural resources development across Canada's boreal ecosystems.
Graminoids Vary in Functional Traits, Carbon Dioxide and Methane Fluxes in a Restored Peatland: Implications for Modeling Carbon Storage
Resource
One metric of peatland restoration success is the re-establishment of a carbon sink, yet considerable uncertainty remains around the timescale of carbon sink trajectories. Conditions post-restoration...
Groundwater in Peat and Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands are wetlands with soil comprised of undecomposed remains of plants that accumulate in such a way that both responds to and controls the flux and storage of surface water and groundwater, as...
Groundwater Monitoring Near Oil Sands Development: Insights From Regional Water Quality Datasets in the Alberta Oil Sands Region (AOSR)
Resource
Groundwater quality data for the AOSR are compiled and interpreted to provide information on regional water quality to inform groundwater monitoring and land use planning. A database of 546 water...
Groundwater Monitoring Near Oil Sands Development: Insights from Regional Water Quality Datasets in the Alberta Oil Sands Region (AOSR)
Resource
Groundwater quality data for the AOSR are compiled and interpreted to provide information on regional water quality to inform groundwater monitoring and land use planning. A database of 546 water...
Health Survey of Boreal Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Northeastern British Columbia, Canada
Resource
Boreal woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) are listed as threatened across Canada, and a basic understanding of their health status is lacking. From December 2012 to April 2013, we...
High Prevalence of Prion Protein Genotype Associated with Resistance to Chronic Wasting Disease in One Alberta Woodland Caribou Population
Resource
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease found in deer, elk and moose in North America and since recently, wild reindeer in Norway. Caribou are at-risk to encounter CWD in areas such as...
How Mounds are Made Matters: Seismic Line Restoration Techniques Affect Peat Physical and Chemical Properties Throughout the Peat Profile
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Impact of Linear Disturbances on Boreal Wetland Carbon and Greenhouse Gas Exchange
Resource
This presentation provides and overview of linear disturbance impacts on carbon and greenhouse gas exchange and links various research posters also presented at the NAIT 7th Seminar on Linear...
Impacts of Seismic Line Restoration on CO2, CH4, and Biomass
Resource
This thesis explores how seismic line mounding treatments affect vegetation cover and composition, above- and belowground biomass, and carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4) fluxes in the first two...
