This decommissioned ERA site remains active temporarily to support our final migration steps to https://ualberta.scholaris.ca, ERA's new home. All new collections and items, including Spring 2025 theses, are at that site. For assistance, please contact erahelp@ualberta.ca.
Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Transpiration Response of Residual Lodgepole Pine After Partial-cut and Strip-shelterwood Harvesting in Alberta's Southern Rocky Mountains
DownloadFall 2019
Forest harvesting reduces forest canopy cover which can reduce evapotranspiration and affect the hydrologic regime of watersheds. Prior research has shown while transpiration is reduced by the removal of trees, it can also affect soil moisture and meteorological variables (e.g....

Understanding the risk of unpaved roads on drinking water treatability by assessing sediment erosion across Canada
DownloadFall 2023
Forest harvesting, wildfire suppression, energy resource exploration, and recreation all require unpaved roads. As a result, many roads in drinking watersheds are potential sources of fine (<63 µm) sediment. Erosion of fine sediment threatens drinking water treatability as can be a source of...

Wildfire effects on net precipitation, streamflow regime and rainfall-runoff events in northern Rocky Mountain watersheds
DownloadFall 2022
In recent decades, severe wildfire in western North America has increased in frequency as a result of a warming climate and historical fire suppression, impacting an increasing amount of forested area. Reduced forest canopy interception and storage combined with soil water repellency and altered...
