Sneddon, D. T., Van De Maat, D.
This list of papers and articles from professional and learned journals was assembled to provide a point of departure for hydrogeological and geomechanical studies in the Cold Lake Oil Sands. While the list is fairly extensive, it makes no pretext of being exhaustive; although a substantial...

Preliminary recommendations for mapping of aquatic habitat parameters for the AOSERP study area
Download1978
Brown, A., Robarts, R. D., Kent, M. J., Park, J. O.
Three aspects of aquatic habitat assessment and mapping have been considered. The first aspect was the review of the parameters which characterize aquatic habitats in the AOSERP study area. From an extensive list, ten parameters for each of lake habitats and river habitats were selected as being...

Fedkenheuer, A. W., Brown, S. J.
The extraction of bitumen from the Athabasca Oil Sands can be considered successful only if workable and economically feasible methods of reclamation of the area following mining are developed. This is the purpose of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program's Vegetation Technical...

Productivity and carbon accumulation potential of transferred biofilms in reclaimed oil sands-affected wetlands
DownloadSpring 2011
Biofilms are significant contributors to primary production, nutrient cycling, bio-stabilization and the food web of wetland ecosystems. Photoautotrophic biomass (PB) and primary production (PP) were determined for biofilms exposed to various treatments and materials in wetlands near Fort...

Rebuilding the boreal: analyzing the replicability of the bacterial community structure and soil functioning of forest floor mineral mix with peat subsoil admixtures
DownloadSpring 2017
Alberta law requires reclamation of lands disturbed by surface mining operations, such as those occurring at the Athabasca Oil Sands Region, however, reclamation rates lag far behind continued disturbance rates. Due to cost, mining companies must make use of the materials on site, of which the...
