Book Soil and Vegetation Change on a Coal Mine 15 Years After Reclamation in the Aspen Parkland of Alberta

Download or read book Soil and Vegetation Change on a Coal Mine 15 Years After Reclamation in the Aspen Parkland of Alberta written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To evaluate the outcomes of reclamation design, soil and plant community changes on an unmanaged, 15-year-old certified-reclaimed site were analysed and compared with an undisturbed reference location. Patterns were analysed using MRPP while change was measured with rmANOVA. Plant species were poor predictors of selected soil properties. Percent soil organic carbon increased (p = 0.032), while soil pH did not change. Overall plant community composition did not change in proportion of cover between a priori groups of seeded/unseeded species or between native/introduced species. Individual species did vary in amount of cover change between 1993 and 2007. A linear regression of richness versus area covered by native species determined that the Shannon index is not a suitable measurement for monitoring plant community change towards the reference ecosystem. These findings highlight the importance of initial design, and the potential additive role of landscape architects as part of reclamation planning.

Book The Reclamation of Former Coal Mines and Steelworks

Download or read book The Reclamation of Former Coal Mines and Steelworks written by I.G. Richards and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1993-10-11 with total page 751 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the result of studies undertaken on behalf of the European Commission, examines the current 'state of the art' techniques for the restoration of despoiled lands arising from the coal and steel industries. It provides technical guidance to aid the process of the regeneration of the coal and steel communities of Europe. The chapters are fully cross referenced in the text, and where more technical or specific detail is provided, this has been placed into boxes rather than in the main text. The book will be of great interest to environmental scientists and engineers, and to all those who are involved in mining, mineral waste, soil pollution and waste management and disposal.

Book Coal Surface Mining

Download or read book Coal Surface Mining written by James E. Rowe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since coal is seen by many as the logical solution to the nation's energy crisis, strip mining operations will continue. But they will continue amid intense public debate, much of it centering on the standards that will govern reclamation. In this book leading authorities address the economic, environmental, and legal ramifications of land reclamation following coal surface mining, review the status of the coal industry, and look at possible future developments.
