Reflecting Productivity Losses due to Erosion in Physical and Financial Accounts for Agricultural Soils
Download1994
The paper describes an approach to estimating the long-term impact of soil erosion, and applies that approach to data from the Province of Alberta, Canada. This paper relies upon a soil classification system established in Canada, known as the Canada Land Inventory (CLI). It also employs...

Boutin, S., He, F., Sólymos, P., Cahill Jr, J. F., Mayor, S.J.
The worldwide biodiversity crisis has intensified the need to better understand how biodiversity and human disturbance are related. The 'intermediate disturbance hypothesis' suggests that disturbance regimes generate predictable non-linear patterns in species richness. Evidence often contradicts...

Reimagining Craft as Alternate Sustainable Community Pathways: A Community-based Participatory Exploration of Degrowth
DownloadSpring 2023
From beekeeping to brewing, Alberta’s craft food sector offers potential provisionary pathways toward degrowth. While many sustainable development policies are fuelled by beliefs in ecological modernisation or green growth, degrowth scholars criticize these approaches as offering empty promises...

Glass sponge reefs are globally unique ecosystems on Canada’s western continental shelf that are susceptible to harm from fishing (e.g., bottom-contact trawling). In 2017, a marine protected area (MPA) was created to protect four of these reefs in Hecate Strait and Queen Charlotte Sound. Three...

Melim, Leslie A., Northup. Diana E., Spilde, Michael N., Jones, Brian, Boston, Penelope J., Bixby, Rebecca J.
We report on a reticulated filament found in modern and fossil cave samples that cannot be correlated to any known microorganism or organism part. These filaments were found in moist environments in five limestone caves (four in New Mexico, U.S.A., one in Tabasco, Mexico), and a basalt lava tube...

Festuca hallii (plains rough fescue), a late-seral bunchgrass and long-lived perennial, is difficult to restore once disturbed. Once dominant in grasslands throughout central Alberta, F. hallii now occurs in remnants, a result of agricultural and residential development, and oil and gas...

Sedimentology, ichnology, and sequence stratigraphy of the Middle-Upper Eocene succession in the Fayum Depression, Egypt
DownloadFall 2009
Middle-Upper Eocene successions were studied in the Fayum Depression in order to establish depositional and paleoenvironmental models that link the ichnological and sedimentologic data to relative sea-level changes in a sequence stratigraphic framework. Five facies associations (FA1- FA5) are...
