The distribution, foraging behavior, and allied activities of the white pelican in the Athabasca oil sands area
Download1979
From mid to late summer 1977 an investigation was made of the distribution and foraging of White Pelicans in the Birch Mountains. This study was linked with a breeding investigation undertaken at the pelican rookery as part of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program. Aerial...

The ecology of macrobenthic invertebrate communities in Hartley Creek, Northeastern Alberta
Download1979
McElhone, M., Crowther, R., Davies, R. W., Hartland-Rowe, R. C. B.
Hartley Creek, a tributary of the Muskeg River in the Athabasca Oil Sands area of northeastern Alberta, has a discharge ranging between 0.5 and 7 m3.s-1 , experiences temperatures ranging between 0° and about 18°C, and has high oxygen concentrations at all seasons. The benthic fauna is rich and...

The Effect of Freezing and Thawing on the Dewatering of Oil Sands Sludge. IN: Proceedings of the Conference Reclamation, A Global Perspective
Download1989
Bork, P., Layte, P., Johnson, R. L.
Oil sands processing operations in northeastern Alberta generate 25 x 106 m3 of water-fines mixtures (sludge) per year. The fines settle in several weeks but will not consolidate to more than 35% solids, even over centuries. Freezing and thawing the oil sands sludge led to rapid dewatering. ...

Griffiths, W. H., Walton, B. D.
A review of the effects of sedimentation on aquatic biota is presented. The detrimental effects of increased suspended and settled sediments on fish, bottom invertebrates, and primary productivity are documented. It is shown that the upper tolerance level for suspended sediment is between 80-100...

Olson, S. L., Humphries, R. G., Barge, B. L.
The feasibility of a weather radar to map precipitation in the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program (AOSERP) study area near Fort McMurray, Alberta was investigated. Consultations with various groups and agencies associated with AOSERP revealed that representative precipitation data...

Flood frequency prediction for Syncrude Lease 17 is necessary f o r both mining activities and environmental protection. Due to a scarcity of local data, flood frequency curves could not be prepared directly. It is demonstrated that flood frequency curves can be derived from limited data...
