Fall 2012
The use of solvents for extraction of bitumen is attractive because no wet tailings are produced. Studies have already shown that hydrocarbon solvents can achieve the same level of bitumen recovery as the current aqueous extraction method. However, solvent recovery must be very efficient to avoid...

Spatial and temporal variation of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in three westlope cutthroat trout tributaries in the Rocky Mountains
Download2014-02-04
Westslope cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii lewisi) is an important subspecies to Alberta, as a representative of a rich and diverse fish taxon that intrinsically holds many local adaptations to their native range. The reduction of westslope cutthroat trout from their historical range to...

Increasing levels of human activity in mountainous areas have high potential to inhibit animal movement across and among valleys. We examined how wolves respond to roads, trails, and other developments. We recorded the movements of two wolf packs for two winters by following their tracks in the...

For many years, birders have recognized that the Warbling Vireos found in Western North America sing quite a different song than those in Eastern North America. Recently, researchers from the University of Calgary, Lovell et al., (2021), have shown that these two subspecies, Eastern and Western,...

Speech and hearing professionals' perspectives on providing aural rehabilitation services to adults with hearing loss in Alberta
DownloadSpring 2017
The occurrence of hearing loss increases markedly with age. Given that the population in Alberta is aging, hearing loss is expected to affect an increasing proportion of people in this province in the coming years. Research indicates that approximately half of adults in Canada with hearing loss...

Graveland, D. N., McCoy, D. A., Regier, H. F.
Physical and chemical analyses of spent sand indicate that this material is very infertile. The spent sand samples analysed had an average pH of 7.2 and low Na content indicating that there was no residual problem resulting from the NaOH used in the oil production process. Freshly processed...
