Responses to lowered salinity in the Pacific spiny dogfish, Squalus suckleyi, a marginally euryhaline shark
DownloadFall 2018
Euryhalinity is the ability to survive in multiple environmental salinities. Full euryhalinity is rare within the elasmobranchs (rays, skates, and sharks), however, marginal euryhalinity is comparatively more common. The physiology underlying these adaptations is relatively understudied in...

Although many aspects of salinity tolerance in plants have been thoroughly researched, some of the fundamental aspects of plant water relations remain unclear. The main objective of my thesis research was to examine the role of aquaporin-mediated water transport in salinity tolerance of three...

This literature review compiles information on salt movement in disturbed soils, particularly in soils that had been disturbed by pipeline construction. The review had two main objectives: to assess climatic and soil conditions under which salts will move out of the root zone in a disturbed soil...

Selected Aspects of Plant Responses to Elevated pH, Salinity and Drought: Implications for Oil Sands Revegetation
DownloadSpring 2021
Elevated salinity, high pH, and drought are among the most challenging environmental factors affecting the growth and survival of plants in oil sands reclamation areas. In my thesis research, I focused on the selected aspects of these environmental stresses to better understand their potential...

Toxicity of saline groundwater from Syncrude's Lease 17 to fish and benthic macroinvertebrates
Download1977
Peltzner, A., McMahon, B., McCart, P., Walder, G.
The mining of the tar sands which are included in the area to be developed by Syncrude Canada Ltd. will require the dewatering of the mine pits. This will involve the pumping of large volumes of saline groundwater. Present plans call for its eventual disposal through Ruth Lake, the Poplar River...
