A preliminary study of chemical and microbial characteristics of the Athabasca River in the Athabasca oil sands area of northeastern Alberta
Download1979
Costerton, J. W., Nix, P. G., Ventullo, R., Coutts, R. T.
A literature review and evaluation of methods used to determine rates of bacterial uptake (heterotrophic assimilation) of organic substrates in fresh water systems was undertaken. The uptake of a \"universal\" substrate - radiolabelled glutamic acid - was determined in order to assess the effects...

A preliminary vegetation survey of the Alberta oil sands environmental research program study area
Download1976
Limited time and access constraints restricted this preliminary vegetation survey to Townships 85-103, Ranges 6-12, west of the 4th meridian. This area centres on sites of maximum development north of Fort McMurray (i .e. the GCOS and Sync rude leases). Eighty-four stands were chosen as...

A review and assessment of the baseline data relevant to the impacts of oil sands developments on large mammals in the AOSERP study area
Download1980
McCourt, K. H., Ealey, D. M., Thompson, D. C.
The available baseline data which are relevant to the documentation and evaluation of the impacts on large mammals (moose, woodland caribou, wolf) which would result from oil sands development are reviewed. An approach to the analysis of impacts was developed to provide a logical framework for...
