Heavy metal dynamics in the Athabasca River: Sediment concentrations prior to major Alberta oil sands development
Download1977
Exploitation of the bituminous sands may elevate heavy metal levels in the sediments of drainage systems of the AOSERP area via waterborne or airborne emissions. One hundred and six dredged sediments and twenty-four sediment cores were collected from the Athabasca River system from just above...
