LEE BARBOUR: <\/b><em>We were able to show that in fact the cover designs being used by Syncrude are  very capable of providing the water demands for let\u2019s say an upland forest.  But there\u2019s always a little bit of water that passes through that cover into the landform.<br \/>\n And to look at the long term release of water and any chemicals of interest, any constituents of interest, you need to understand the deeper flow system.  And really there\u2019s been very little limited work done on how much water moves deep through these land forms in the long term.  We\u2019re talking in 100 to 1000 year timeframe.       So the Chair is really focused on trying to find and apply some tools where we can characterize the rates of movement and the distribution of water movement through these land forms.    <\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOne way Dr. Barbour and his graduate students will determine how water moves through these reclaimed sites is to characterize their different isotopes.\n<\/p>\n<p><em><br \/>\nThanks today to <b>SYNCRUDE<\/em>\n<\/p>\n<p>\nLearn more at InnovationAnthology.com\n<\/p>\n<p>\nI\u2019M CHERYL CROUCHER   <\/b>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.syncrude.com\">Syncrude<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/SyncrudeLogo.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02012-11-13<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Predicting how water moves through reclaimed mine sites in the oil sands is a   question that <b>Dr. Lee Barbour<\/b> from the University of Saskatchewan will address.
