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...

Toxicity of saline groundwater from Syncrude's Lease 17 to fish and benthic macroinvertebrates
Download1977
Peltzner, A., McMahon, B., McCart, P., Walder, G.
The mining of the tar sands which are included in the area to be developed by Syncrude Canada Ltd. will require the dewatering of the mine pits. This will involve the pumping of large volumes of saline groundwater. Present plans call for its eventual disposal through Ruth Lake, the Poplar River...
