Fall 2019
Within the Boreal Plains of north-central Alberta, catchments situated within low permeability glacial terrain are composed of a mosaic of landscape units including ponds, peatlands, and upland aspen forest ecosystems within a sub-humid climatic zone where water deficit conditions are frequent. ...

Identifying historical climate-growth limitations of white spruce (Picea glauca) populations across North America
DownloadSpring 2021
Climate change may cause reduced forest productivity and higher tree mortality due to water deficits that result from increased evapotranspiration. Such limitations may occur in some areas of the North American boreal forest, where precipitation is low and warming trends are high. This thesis...

Identifying seasonal Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) movement patterns and habitat selection in the South Saskatchewan River Basin
DownloadFall 2016
Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens Rafinesque 1817) have experienced population declines throughout their range. In Alberta, low density age-class distributions, irregular recruitment, critically low spawning potential ratios and other factors led to a 2007 designation of “Threatened” for this...

Incorporating the impacts of climate change in transportation infrastructure decision models.
Download2020-04-01
Historically an important transportation corridor in the Northwest Territories, climate change has shortened the duration of the Mackenzie River’s navigational season. Communities rely increasingly on airlift as the growing volatility affects barging operations, leading to higher overall freight...

Influence of Precipitation, Temperature, and Climate Change on Landslide Hazards in Western Canada
DownloadSpring 2024
Canada experiences a significant number of landslides each year, posing substantial risks to safety, infrastructure, economic activities, and the environment. Over the last two and a half centuries, Canada has witnessed approximately 800 fatalities attributed to landslides, which has made...

Influence of wildfire and permafrost thaw on dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in northern peatlands; implications for lability and downstream transport
DownloadFall 2017
Peatlands in Canada’s western boreal forest are a major source of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to downstream ecosystems, where DOC regulates carbon cycling, and can affect ecosystem productivity and habitat quality. Subarctic ecosystems are becoming increasingly vulnerable to the effects of...
