Biogeochemistry of meromictic pit lakes and permeable reactive barriers at the Cluff Lake uranium mine
DownloadFall 2019
Mining generates not only vast amounts of waste rock and tailings but is also responsible for far-reaching contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water, which often requires remediation. This thesis focused on the biogeochemistry of two types of remediation technologies applied at the...

Groundwater movement in heterogeneous, water-limited, low-relief landscapes: understanding interactions of geology, topography, and climate at multiple spatiotemporal scales
DownloadFall 2021
The low-relief, sub-humid Boreal Plains (BP) region of Canada, is characterized by pond-peatland-forestland complexes underlain by thick glacial deposits, which result in inter-dependent surface water processes and groundwater flow systems with varying spatiotemporal controls. A fundamental...

Hydrogeological Considerations for Landscape Reconstruction and Wetland Reclamation in the Sub-humid Climate of Northeastern Alberta, Canada
DownloadFall 2019
Oil sands mining companies must reclaim tailings deposits to equivalent land capability in Alberta’s boreal forest. Post-mining landscapes should be reconstructed to promote the development of hydrologic systems that can sustain reclaimed ecosystems in a sub-humid climate, while limiting...
