This paper suggests that researchers can improve interdisciplinary science through the use of conceptual models as a communication tool. The authors share lessons from a workshop in which...
Abstract Climate change vulnerability assessments are commonly used to identify species or populations at risk from global climate change, but few translate impact assessments to climate change...
The land disturbed by open-pit oil sands mining must be restored to support the survival and growth of native boreal plants. Because tailings sand and sodic shale overburden are commonly used as an...
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...
The OPtical TRApezoid Model (OPTRAM) is a physically-based approach for remote soil moisture estimation. OPTRAM is based on the response of short-wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance to vegetation water...
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
This is a hybrid seminar (in-person and virtual) sponsored by the Alberta Chapter, Canadian Land Reclamation Association. The presenter is Kira Gerow, a reclamation coordinator with Canadian Natural...
Horizon Project reclamation goal is to achieve self-sustaining ecosystems with capability equivalent to predevelopment conditions using locally common boreal forest communities as a guide for reveg
Dr. Ron Currie was project lead for a study conducted at NAIT Applied Research Centre for Oil Sands Sustainability (NARCOSS) to help develop a standard for Alberta's oil sands producers to measure...
Dr. Aref Najafi is a Technology Development Engineer with Canadian Natural Resources Limited. He described the tailings research at CNRL as they develop an open-pit oil sands mine in NE Alberta. The...
