MARC recordEffects of contemporary winter seismic exploration on Low Arctic plant communities and permafrost / J.Todd Kemper, S.Ellen Macdonald.
| Title: | Effects of contemporary winter seismic exploration on Low Arctic plant communities and permafrost / J.Todd Kemper, S.Ellen Macdonald. |
| Author(s): | Kemper, J. Todd. Macdonald, S. Ellen. |
| Date: | 2009. |
| In: | Arctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research. (2009.), Vol. 41(2) (2009) |
| Abstract: | Presents study of effects of oil and gas exploration, using most recent seismic exploration technologies, on tundra plant communities and soils for vegetation types in Low Arctic of western Canada, two to three years post-disturbance. Results suggest upland vegetation types are less resistant to seismic disturbance; active layer depth increases following seismic disturbance; and impacts from modern seismic techniques in upland tundra are similar to, or somewhat greater than, initial impacts observed from earliest phases of winter exploration (30 years ago). |
