Stringer, P. W.

Limited time and access constraints restricted this preliminary vegetation survey to Townships 85-103, Ranges 6-12, west of the 4th meridian. This area centres on sites of maximum development north of Fort McMurray (i .e. the GCOS and Sync rude leases). Eighty-four stands were chosen as...

Steen, O. A.

Vegetation literature and maps pertinent to the AOSERP study area are reviewed and summarized. Studies from throughout northern Alberta and Saskatchewan are discussed although emphasis is given to the preliminary vegetation classification described by Stringer (1976) and the vegetation maps...

Cold heavy-oil production with sand (CHOPS) is a primary recovery process in unconsolidated heavy-oil reservoirs. The recovery factor typically ranges from 5% to 15% of the initial oil in place (OOIP). Approximately 90% of crude oil is left underground with considerable exploitation potential...

The ruthenium carbamate complex derived from 3-trimethoxysilyl-1- propyl amine and carbon dioxide was found to be a novel catalyst for the oxidative cyanation of aromatic and cyclic tertiary amines to corresponding a-amino nitriles in high to excellent yields by using hydrogen peroxide and...

Smith, S. B.

This report is not intended to be a definitive review of published literature concerning environmental changes which might occur in northern ecosystems as a result of massive industrial development. Rather, it is intended to summarize a large number of surveys and some research of a distinctly...

Hudson, H. R.

In a near-natural state the aptly named 1520 km2 Muskeg River basin in northeastern Alberta has an average annual water yield of 94 mm, (20 percent of the precipitation), and an average annual sediment yield of 3210 tonnes (2.20 t/km2) which is derived almost exclusively from channel and riparian...

Bayley, S. E., Rooney, R. C., Bolding, M. T., Wilson, M. J.

This handbook describes tools used to assess and monitor the health or condition of reclaimed marshes in the oil sands region. It will guide users through the sampling methods, laboratory procedures, and data calculation steps necessary for measuring health indicators of permanent wetlands...

Crosby-Diewold, J., Thompson, M. S.

This study evaluates the growth of aquatic macrophytes in selected lakes within the AOSERP study area in terms of lake type, and the feasibility of mapping such aquatic macrophytes using the existing FCIR photography of the study area. Field surveys were carried out during August 1978. Ten lakes...
