Vegetation recovery at 30 year old oil and gas drilling sumps in the Mackenzie River Delta, NWT.
chercheur principal: Wunderlich, Nicole B
Année(s) de permis: 2008
Résumé: The objective of this study is to determine if the plant community composition of seeded and unseeded disturbances in the Mackenzie Delta is similar to the undisturbed tundra. This comparison may help determine best practices of recovery for native vegetation to use in future oil and gas projects in the region. The vegetation data will be collected using non-destructive methods including species p...
