Disruption of a belowground mutualism alters interactions between plants and their floral visitors
Download2008-01-01
Cahill, J. F., Shore, B. H., Smith, G. R., Elle, E.
Plants engage in diverse and intimate interactions with unrelated taxa. For example, aboveground. oral visitors provide pollination services, while belowground arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) enhance nutrient capture. Traditionally in ecology, these processes were studied in isolation,...

Effects of aspen harvesting on groundwater recharge and water table dynamics in a subhumid climate
Download2011
Devito, K.J., Mendoza, C.A., Smerdon, B.D., Carrera-Hernández, J. J., Petrone, R.M.
Numerical experiments were developed using different water table depths and soil textures to investigate the impact of aspen harvesting on hydrological processes on the Western Boreal Plain. The effect of harvesting on soil moisture dynamics, fluxes at the water table, and water table fluctuation...

Effects of forest harvesting and fire on fish assemblages in Boreal Plains lakes: A reference condition approach
Download2003
Scrimgeour, G.J., Lange, M., Prepas, E.E., Westcott, K., Aku, P.K.M., Paszkowski, C.A., Tonn, W.M.
To assess the impacts of forest harvesting and fires on lentic fish assemblages in the Boreal Plains ecoregion (Alberta, Canada), we applied a reference condition approach to 37 lakes in burned, logged, or undisturbed catchments. Fish assemblages in the reference lakes were classified into two...

Vegetative and fertile frond segments of Botrychium have been recovered from Paleocene deposits of central Alberta, Canada. Specimens are preserved as coalified compressions that yield information about frond structure, sporangia, and spore ultrastructure. These fossils, described as Botrychium...

Glycemic control in diabetic and non-diabetic cardiac surgical patients and length of hospital stay.
Download2008
Jensen, L., Reyes, M., Kidd, W., Stewart, J.
BACKGROUND: Maintaining blood glucose levels (BGL) within normoglycemic range has been shown to reduce morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. However, there is little evidence that maintenance of normoglycemic BGL is beneficial for diabetic and non-diabetic patients who undergo...

Ciarniello, L. M., Heard, D. C., Boyce, M. S., Seip, D. R.
The purpose of our study is to show how ecologists' interpretation of habitat selection by grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) is altered by the scale of observation and also how management questions would be best addressed using predetermined scales of analysis. Using resource selection functions (RSF)...

Wynes, B. B., Wasel, S. S., Schneider, R. R., Dzus, E. E., Hiltz, M. M.
Habitat mapping and habitat supply assessment have been identified as key elements of the Alberta Woodland Caribou Conservation Strategy. Previous studies from northeastern Alberta have shown that caribou select lowland habitat types and avoid upland. The objectives of our study were to determine...

Homelessness Coverage, Social Reality, and Media ownership: Comparing a National Newspaper with two Regional Newspapers in Canada
Download2012
Kovacs Burns, K., Chaw-Kant, J., Mao, Y., Richter, S.
The media plays an important role in the discourse of homelessness. The purpose of this study was to compare how two Alberta newspapers (Calgary Herald and Edmonton Journal) and one national newspaper(the Globe and Mail) covered homeless issues in terms of population, main themes, article type,...
