Experimental investigation on evaporation induced convection in water using laser based measurement techniques
DownloadFall 2010
Recent studies showed that evaporation of water can induce surface tension gradients along the water surface and ultimately lead to convection, known as Marangoni convection. This study was devoted to visualization and characterization of the evaporation-induced, surface-tension-driven convection...

Heavy metals in bottom sediments of the mainstem Athabasca river system in the AOSERP study area
Download1978
Dredged sediments and sediment cores were collected from sites along the Athabasca River system from between Fort McMurray and the confluence of Riviere des Rochers with the Slave River. A selected sample suite representing all of the drainage units and textural variations was analysed by...

Identifying Factors that Influence the Sustainability of a Gravity-Fed Water System in Rural Haiti
DownloadSpring 2020
Background: The sustainability of water supply systems in rural, low resource settings is imperative to address as approximately 25% of water systems fail within four years of installation. Due to a long history of political instability, government corruption, countless natural disasters, and...

Influence of Soil Cap Depth and Vegetation on Reclamation of Phosphogypsum Stacks in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2013
This study quantified environmental parameters to develop reclamation strategies for phosphogypsum stacks. Research was conducted on phosphogypsum stack experimental plots established in 2006 (6 soil cap depths, 5 vegetation treatments), and soil capped slopes seeded in 1998. Significant root...
