Assessing the effects of weather conditions on physical activity participation using objective measures
Download2009
Chan, Catherine B., Ryan, Daniel A.
Habitual physical activity is an important determinant of health, yet many people are considered to be inactive. Identification of the obstacles to greater participation is necessary for the development of strategies to overcome those obstacles. The weather has been identified as a perceived...

Autecology of Kobresia bellardii: why winter snow accumulation patterns affect local distribution
Download1974
Investigates Kobresia bellardii's limited alpine microenvironment in the Colorado Front Range.

1984
Rudolph, R. C., Oleskiw, M. M., Stuart, R. A.
This report is a climatological analysis of recent data from the Athabasca Oil Sands area. Data sources included the MAPS network of automatic meteorological data acquisition, forestry lookout stations, minisondes, snow pack surveys, and the Atmospheric Environment Service observing station at...

Effects of Alternative Forest Harvesting Strategies on Snowpack Dynamics and Seasonal Soil Moisture Storage in Alberta's Mountain Headwaters
DownloadFall 2019
Snowpack accumulation and melt dynamics, and soil moisture storage (SMS) play a critical role in regulating stressed regional water supplies in the southern Alberta Rockies. However, these processes are sensitive to impacts from forest cover losses by timber harvesting and associated land...

Fall 2012
To estimate the visibility during snowfall, we compare hourly visibility (Vis) measurements with radar reflectivity factor (Z) measurements sampled over Edmonton International Airport during snowfall events from October 2010 to April 2011. The (Z, Vis) scatter diagrams showed that increasing Z...

Evaluation, analysis, and assessment of snowpack and precipitation data from a monitoring network in the AOSERP study area
Download1985
Heidorn, K., Stevens, D., Todd, S., Fellin, P., Davis, C. S.
The data and network operating procedures from the precipitation and snow sampling networks in the AOSERP area of Alberta were reviewed and assessed. The data was first reformatted into NAQUADAT format and then quality assured by several screening procedures including outlier tests, simultaneous...

1987
Hastings, R., Olson, R., Ellis, R.
The chemical characteristics of snow in the Oil Sands area of northeastern Alberta have been monitored periodically since 1976. The accumulation of pollutants in the snowpack can be an effective indicator of total winter deposition as the snowpack preserves a continuous record of materials...

Response of RADAR Backscatter at Multiple Frequencies and Polarizations to Changing Snow and Ice Properties on a Temperate Saline Lake
DownloadSpring 2012
Currently there is a lack of knowledge regarding the distribution of the mass of snow, or snow water equivalence, over land and ice. The proposed CoReH2O satellite mission aims to address this by launching the first coincident dual-frequency, dual-polarized Ku- and X- band Synthetic Aperture...
