Athabasca Tar Sands Corridor Study Group

The prospect of impending rapid development of the Athabasca Tar Sands which will generate an unprecedented demand for a wide variety of transportation facilities makes it imperative that the future linkage of the resource area with its markets and supply centres be planned in a comprehensive and...

Athabasca Tar Sands Corridor Study Group

In this plan a transportation corridor connects the oil sands resources of the Athabasca area to a new major provincial terminal which serves as a central hub for additional corridors radiating out to existing and future industrial facilities and extra-provincial terminals. The placement of these...

Current composite materials base their capabilities from the dispersion of discrete reinforcing materials throughout a matrix. This method places too much reliance on the surface bond between matrix and reinforcing phase. By employing two continuous, interpenetrating materials, it is theorized...

The dissipation of bromacil in Humic Luvic Gleysols amended with cow manure was evaluated at two sites in northwestern Alberta from 1984 to 1987. At each site, nine locations were sampled in 4 cm increments from 0 to 40 cm, and analyzed for bromacil, pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and organic...

Research assessed early stages of calcareous soil reclamation along the TMX-Anchor Loop pipeline through Jasper National Park. Calcareous soils are low in nutrients and highly prone to erosion after disturbances. Four sites were established in each of five calcareous soils, and divided into three...
