1979
The epilithic microbial and micro-invertebrate communities under conditions of light and shade were studied from April to November 1978. During a period of increasing light intensity from May to June, the level of chlorophyll a (an algal biomass indicator) and numbers of Bacillariophyta in the...

Aquatic biophysical inventory of major tributaries in the AOSERP study area Vol I
1980
This report summarizes and compares the physical characteristics of nine streams within five watersheds (Firebag, Muskeg, Steepbank, MacKay, and Ells) in the AOSERP study area. The distributions and relative abundances of fish in each stream and watershed are also described and related to the...

Aquatic biophysical inventory of major tributaries in the AOSERP study area. Volume II: Atlas
Download1980
This report contains maps showing fish collection locations, photos and details of the physical characteristics of nine streams within five watersheds (Firebag, Muskeg, Steepbank, MacKay, and Ells) in the AOSERP study area. The Atlas accompanies the Volume 1 report (Sekerak, A.D. and G.L....

Taylor, B., Hamilton, H., Westlake, D., Wallace, R., Foght, J., Hrudey, S.
This report investigates the relationship between certain hydrocarbons that are present naturally, or could be introduced due to surface oil sands mining and upgrading activities, and their potential bioaccumulation and tainting of the commercial fishery in the Athabasca River. This includes...

1979
During 1978, a number of aquatic projects were funded by Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program (AOSERP) using a habitat inventory and mapping approach. Initially, preliminary recommendations were sought for the mapping of aquatic habitat parameters for the AOSERP study area. A data...

Aquatic nanotoxicity testing: Insights at the biochemical, cellular, and whole animal levels
DownloadFall 2013
Aquatic organisms are susceptible to waterborne nanoparticles and there is only limited understanding of the mechanisms by which these emerging contaminants affect biological processes. The unique properties of nanomaterials necessitate evaluation of standard toxicity testing techniques to...

Harding, E. A., Chamberlin, T. W.
A workshop on aquatic systems was held 20 and 21 September 1978 in Edmonton, Alberta. Participants included members of Alberta Environment, Alberta Recreation, Parks and Wildlife, Fisheries and Environment Canada, and consultants conducting research for the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental...

Fall 2010
The purpose of this project was to formulate, modify and evaluate nanoparticles for targeting asialoglycoprotein receptor found in large numbers exclusively on hepatocyte surfaces. Our goal is to increase the efficacy, reduce the side effects and the cost of the hydrophilic drugs administered to...

Aspects of the hydrologic and sediment regimes of the Muskeg River basin and the consequences of vegetation removal
Download1983
In a near-natural state the aptly named 1520 km2 Muskeg River basin in northeastern Alberta has an average annual water yield of 94 mm, (20 percent of the precipitation), and an average annual sediment yield of 3210 tonnes (2.20 t/km2) which is derived almost exclusively from channel and riparian...
