using reproductive endpoints in small forage fish species to evaluate the effects of athabasca oil sands activities.	the main objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of naturally occurring oil sands-related compounds (osrc) on reproductive function in fish in order to assess the impacts of anthropogenic point-source inputs. the health of slimy sculpin (cottus cognatus) and pearl dace (semotilus margarita) collected from the alberta athabasca oil sands (canada) watershed were examined. two rivers were selected for study: the steepbank and the ells. these rivers originate outside the oil sands form ...	2003	14587921
cumulative industrial activity alters lotic fish assemblages in two boreal forest watersheds of alberta, canada.	we evaluated the cumulative effects of land use disturbance resulting from forest harvesting, and exploration and extraction of oil and gas resources on the occurrence and structure of stream fish assemblages in the kakwa and simonette watersheds in alberta, canada. logistic regression models showed that the occurrence of numerically dominant species in both watersheds was related to two metrics defining industrial activity (i.e., percent disturbance and road density), in addition to stream wett ...	2008	18815827
