Spring 2011
This study was part of the development of an ice jam flood forecasting system for Hay River, NWT. 2-D numerical models were used to simulate ice processes in an effort to predict ice jam formation. A summer survey was conducted to finalize the bathymetry of the Hay River Delta. Observations were...

Changes in Arctic sea ice and hydrology of pan-Arctic river basins under the impact of climate change
DownloadFall 2020
Under the impact of global warming, the hydro-climatology over the Arctic has changed significantly. Warming over the Arctic region is twice the global mean warming rate since the 1980s, known as Arctic Amplification, which occurs because warming induces melting of sea ice, leading to feedbacks...

Competitive Analysis and Value Proposition of Frozen Silt Mats as an alternative to Crane Timber Mats
DownloadFall 2018
The construction industry is adopting the modular construction paradigm with the integration of heavy crane usage. Because of the weight of the modules that are to be lifted, which currently can reach as much as hundreds of tons, ensuring proper ground integrity under the lifting equipment is...

Geomorphic landform design and long-term assessment of tailings storage facilities in the Athabasca oil sands
DownloadFall 2019
In stark contrast to historic mine abandonment, current international best practices in mine reclamation call for geomorphic designs and stability (physical and chemical) for a minimum of 1000 years. Current regulations in Alberta state that post-mining landforms shall be maintenance-free with...

Hydroclimate Changes to Arid regions subjected to Impact of climate change, human activities, and Large-scale climate patterns
DownloadSpring 2020
In recent years, many regions worldwide have suffered from natural hazards related to the impact of human activities and climate change, such as floods and droughts, sea level rise, extreme weather events and an accelerated hydrological cycle. In Africa, the driest continent on Earth, climate...

Spring 2012
The Town of Peace River is over hundred years old. It was heavily urbanized by the late 1970s. Development extended to the geologically immature valley slopes of the Peace River and its tributaries. Triggered by various agents, landslides caused damage to houses and infrastructure developed on...

Meeting the Water for Life challenge: Management scenarios to improve irrigation water use efficiency and reduce water demand in the Western Irrigation District, Alberta
DownloadFall 2012
Simulation of two alternative management scenarios - full rehabilitation and implementation of most efficient technologies, and water application restrictions - were investigated with the Irrigation Demand Model (IDM) as potential avenues to improve water use efficiency and reduce water demand in...

Modeling the Hydrology and Water Resources Management of South Saskatchewan River Basin under the Potential Combined Impacts of Climate Change and Climate Anomalies
DownloadSpring 2013
The objective of this research study is to investigate the potential impact of climate change, and the combined impacts of climate change and climate anomalies on the hydrology and water resources management for the South Saskatchewan River Basin (SSRB) of Alberta for the 21st century. The...
