A Review and Assessment of the Baseline Data Relevant to the Impacts of Oil Sands Developments on Large Mammals in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Major gaps in the baseline knowledge of woodland caribou were: distribution , seasonal habitat use, the effects of sensory disturbance, and population density; minor gap re: direct mortality
Amphibians and Reptiles in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Wood frog (Rana sylvatica) was the most abundant and widespread species in 20 sites examined. Boreal chorus frogs (Pseudacris triseriata maculata) and Canadian toads (Bufohemiophrys) found at
An Assessment of the Adequacy of Baseline Data Relevant to the Documentation and Evaluation of the Impacts of Oil Sands Developments on Large Mammals in the AOSERP Study Area.
Resource
An analysis of the applied research necessary to allow evaluation of the effects of oil sands development on large mammals by a review and evaluation of the available baseline data
Biogeochemical Response to Vegetation and Hydrologic Change in an Alaskan Boreal Fen Ecosystem
Resource
Boreal peatlands store approximately one third of the earth’s terrestrial carbon, locked away in currently waterlogged and frozen conditions. Peatlands of boreal and arctic ecosystems are affected...
Interim Report on a Soils Inventory in the Athabasca Oil Sands Area 1978
Resource
The emphasis in this inventory is on soils and the landforms on which they occur; both are indicated on maps. Air photo interpretation and field checking have been completed
Peat Loss Collocates with a Threshold in Plant–Mycorrhizal Associations in Drained Peatlands Encroached by Trees
Resource
Drainage-induced encroachment by trees may have major effects on the carbon balance of northern peatlands, and responses of microbial communities are likely to play a central mechanistic role. We...
Perfluoroalkyl Substances in Circum-Arctic Rangifer: Caribou and Reindeer
Resource
Livers of caribou and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) from Canada (n = 146), Greenland (n = 30), Svalbard (n = 7), and Sweden (n = 60) were analyzed for concentrations of eight perfluoroalkyl carboxylic...
Soils Inventory of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area
Resource
Recurring patterns of soils, landforms, and vegetation were delineated. The information was transferred first to 1:50,000 preliminary maps and then to eight 1:126,720 maps which accompany this report
The Third Generation of Pan-Canadian Wetland Map at 10 m Resolution Using Multisource Earth Observation Data on Cloud Computing Platform
Resource
Development of the Canadian Wetland Inventory Map (CWIM) has thus far proceeded over two generations, reporting the extent and location of bog, fen, swamp, marsh, and water wetlands across the country...
Woodland Caribou Population Dynamics in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Twenty-nine caribou in the Birch Mountains of northeastern Alberta were radio collared and repeatedly located from fixed wing aircraft. Late-winter density of 1 caribou/24km2. Total 433 caribou
