Development of a toxicity early warning system (TEW)
(2006)Biomonitoring is a practice that has over time developed into a remarkably accurate form of detecting toxicity in the environment. The Toxicity Early Warning system (TEW) is a Real-Time Biomonitoring system developed to ... -
Effectiveness of self-restoration for two small mine impacted shield lakes
(2003)Cleaver Lake and Horneblende Lake in the Whitesand Watershed were studied for the impact of mining and milling activities. No release of zinc, copper, iron, or manganese was detected in aerated sediment samples and there ... -
Effects of water depth increases on the production and growth of wild rice, Zinzania aquatica L.
(1987)Wild rice, grown in plastic buckets suspended from specially designed rafts, was subjected to increases in water depth during the submerged-leaf, first floating-leaf, second floating-leaf, and the first aerial-leaf ... -
Growth of wild rice, Zizania aquatica L., in flocculent sediments
(1988)The objectives of this research were to classify sediments from wild rice lakes, and to examine, in detail, one type of sediment that is not suitable for commercial production of wild rice. Based on physical and chemical ... -
Limnology and remediation of two proximal pit lakes in Northwestern Ontario
(2005)Two adjacent pit lakes, Caland and Hogarth, were formed after the closure and subsequent flooding of the Steep Rock Iron Mines near Atikokan, Ontario, Canada. They were examined to predict flooding patterns, outflow ... -
Limnology of two proximal pit lakes after twenty years of intense flooding
(2001)Two adjacent pit-lakes, Caland and Hogarth, formed after the flooding of open pit iron mines near Atikokan, Ontario, Canada, were examined for their water quality relationships and potential to support aquaculture. ... -
Prediction of a modern gold mine's contaminant dispersion and deposition in a river mixing zone
(2000)Study site: Placer Dome Canada's Musselwhite Mine near Pickle Lake Ontario. -
Role of aquatic macrophytes in trophic status of Northwestern Ontario lakes
(1993)This research focusses on the development, refinement, and assessment of regional trophic status models for lakes of northwestern Ontario. Two companion papers describe the application of image analysis of aerial photographs ... -
Use of wetlands to remediate gold mine effluent
(2000)The effluent from Musselwhite Mine was examined to determine the improvement to water quality as it passed through a treatment wetland prior to final discharge to the receiving water body. Potential toxicity problems ... -
Water quality and toxicity investigations of two pit lakes at the former Steep Rock iron mines, near Atikokan, Ontario / by Andrea R. Goold.
(2008)Caland and Hogarth Pit Lakes formed after cessation of mining and dewatering efforts of open-pit iron mines, near Atikokan, Ontario. They were assessed for w ater quality changes since monitoring began in 1998. ...
