Approaches to the design of a biomonitoring program using arthropods as bioindicators for the AOSERP study area
Download1980
Present oil sand extracting plants are licensed to emit up to 635 t of S02 per day, along with large quantities of other gasses and fly ash. Additional oil sand extraction plants are in the planning stages. The cumulative effect of additional plants will tax the ability of the local environment...
