| Abstract | All research activities of SOURCES relate to the development of new methodologies to allow distinguishing natural and anthropogenic contaminants that are naturally released to water and terrestrial
ecosystems from those produced by oil sands (OS) extraction activities. |
| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
The environmental geoscience program is a federal research program that aims to provide Canadians with advanced scientific information to differentiate
the effects of the development of natural resources on the environment of those of natural processes. Following this mandate, the development of new geoscientific approaches is used to support the developement and responsible use of Canada's natural
resources by making informed decisions while protecting Canadians and their environment. Advancing scientific understanding about natural resources development will inform policy makers and have direct implications on future decisions. To increase
the program visibility, a public session was offered in May 2016 to the Earth Science Sector and other key partners from Natural Resources Canada. All the information presented during the public session is included in this Open File. |
