Fall 2012
The kinetics of vapor phase cracking of bitumen derived heavy gas oil and the quality of liquid products were investigated at temperatures of 600-700 °C. Fixed and condensed gases were analyzed by gas chromatography. The quality of liquid products was characterized using simulated distillation,...

Venison to beef and deviance from truth: biotelemetry for detecting seasonal wolf prey selection in Alberta
DownloadFall 2010
An abrupt interface between mountains and prairies in southwestern Alberta means wilderness areas and carnivore populations overlap cattle grazing lands. Consequently, there is concern about the effects of large carnivores, especially wolves, on livestock. I used GPS clusters and scat samples...

Waiting Time Intervals for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment in Alberta: Quantification of Intervals and Identification of Risk Factors Associated with Delays
DownloadFall 2014
Background: Very little is known regarding the time required to diagnose and treat patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in Canada. Prompt diagnosis and treatment is critical for optimizing the quality and effectiveness of NSCLC care. Purpose: To quantify the duration of diagnostic...

Water and Fine-grained Sediment Assessment in the Capital Region (Edmonton) of the North Saskatchewan River (Canada)
DownloadFall 2022
Purpose: To better understand the behaviors of sediment-associated metals (Cu, Ni, Cd, Mn, Cr, Pb, Fe, Sr, Mo, and Co), an evaluation of physicochemical parameters and metal speciation on suspended and bedload sediment collected from the North Saskatchewan River was conducted in 2018. Sampling...

Wave Speed Measurements of Grosmont Formation Carbonates: Implications for Time-Lapse Seismic Monitoring
DownloadFall 2019
The Grosmont Formation is a Devonian-aged carbonate platform complex that is estimated to hold over 64.5 billion m3 (406 billion bbl) of bitumen in place, accounting for a significant portion of Canada’s total hydrocarbon reserves. Despite this, the Grosmont formation has largely been undeveloped...

Fall 2011
This study was undertaken to examine the economic value of government sponsored control programs to limit the levels of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Alberta. Respondents’ knowledge, attitudes and preferences concerning aspects of CWD including control methods were also addressed. Employing an...

Wildfire effects on net precipitation, streamflow regime and rainfall-runoff events in northern Rocky Mountain watersheds
DownloadFall 2022
In recent decades, severe wildfire in western North America has increased in frequency as a result of a warming climate and historical fire suppression, impacting an increasing amount of forested area. Reduced forest canopy interception and storage combined with soil water repellency and altered...
