Risk and Uncertainty in Oil Sands Upland Reclamation: Best Management Practices within the Context of Climate Change
Download2014
The focus of most climate change impact studies to date is on changes related to mean climate conditions. In terms of climate model output, these changes are more robust than changes in climate variability, the latter of which has considerably greater uncertainty. By concentrating on climate...
