Bottenheim, J. W., Strausz, O. P.
Chemical transformation processes in polluted atmospheres are described, with particular reference to the oil sands area in northeastern Alberta. The relevant atmospheric chemistry is discussed under four headings: clean air chemistry, oxidant chemistry, SO2 chemistry, and aerosol chemistry. It...

Very high resolution meteorological satellite study of oil sands weather "A feasibility study"
Download1977
Charlton, R. B., Mercer, J. M.
Imagery from both meteorological and environmental satellite sensor systems was analyzed to determine its applicability in monitoring weather conditions at the Alberta oil sands. Two sensor systems were the objects of investigation, the multispectral scanner (MSS) aboard the environmental LANDSAT...

Interim report on small mammal populations and related tree damage in the AOSERP study area, October and November 1977
Download1977
The afforestation program in the Athabasca Oil Sands area has been only moderately successful, because of the high mortality of the planted seedlings--much of which Is believed to be the result of high levels of small mammal damage. The objectives of the present study were: (1) to determine the...
