Assessing landscape influences on the base of the aquatic food web across the North Saskatchewan River basin
DownloadSpring 2024
Anthropogenic activities are forcing a shift in landscape types and climate regimes with concomitant effects on runoff draining into regional rivers and downstream water quality. Stream microbial communities at the base of aquatic food webs play an important role in overall ecosystem health, yet...

Microbial Ecology in Environments Impacted by Hydraulic Fracturing Flowback and Produced Water
DownloadSpring 2021
The increased development of unconventional resources recovery has dramatically changed the global energy landscape over the past two decades. Hydraulic fracturing combined with horizontal drilling, a key technology in recovering these resources, requires large freshwater volumes to fracture the...
