Description

This record contains resources used by Alberta Environment and Parks at open house events held in 11 locations across Alberta in January 2020, to garner public feedback to proposals to enhance recreational fishing opportunities across the province. Feedback from the public would be used to inform the 2020 Alberta Sportfishing Regulations, and would also be considered as part of an updated fisheries management plan.

Description

The Agricultural Land Resource Atlas of Alberta is a collection of agricultural resource maps developed following the completion of a scan of environmental issues facing agriculture in Alberta. The maps were prepared as part of this process, or were added to the collection because of their potential value to Alberta's agricultural community. The maps were recognized for their value to people involved in developing environmental farm plans who could use resource and environmental information on a broad scale.

The report presents an overview of the physiography, climate, ecology, general soil patterns, and selected agricultural interpretations for the Gleichen SW map sheet. The accompanying soil map... More ≫

Description

The report presents an overview of the physiography, climate, ecology, general soil patterns, and selected agricultural interpretations for the Gleichen SW map sheet. The accompanying soil map displays patterns of soils at a moderate level of detail. The soils were distinguished by patterns that relate to other landscape features such as landform and slope. Soil and terrain characteristics were interpreted for three agricultural applications: production of spring-seeded small grains, irrigation, and range productivity. The generalized ratings or capability classes are intended as guidelines for land use planners and managers. Agricultural land use, land suitability for production, and land management are briefly discussed.

Description

The soil survey report for the County of Forty Mile begins with a general description of the county and summarizes the 28 land systems, followed by a general description of the soils and mapping methods. Part 3 of the report describes the soils in the county and provides a framework for the detailed legend provided in Appendix I. Part 4 provides interpretations of land capability for dryland agriculture, irrigation capability, grazing capability, wind erosion risk, and water erosion risk. This part also discusses soil degradation. Includes eight separate soil maps.

Description

The purpose of this soil survey is to describe the properties, extent and distribution of soils in the M.D. of Rocky View, as well as to provide interpretations relating to agriculture and soil conservation issues. The current survey provides considerably more detail than previous surveys of the area and utilizes significant advances in soil classification and mapping procedures developed since completion of the earlier surveys.

Description

The main part of this report briefly describes the location and extent, population and land use, physiography, climate, vegetation, and surficial geology of the survey area. Soil classification and mapping procedures are outlined, and the generalized distribution of soils is described in terms of physiographic subdivisions. Soil degradation, with emphasis on erosion, is also briefly described. Appendices provide more detailed technical and descriptive information. Soils are described at the most detailed level of classification, the series level, in Appendix A. The soil, map and miscellaneous units are described in some detail in Appendix B. Appendix C contains interpretive and land capability information for selected agricultural land uses, namely arable agriculture, irrigation and rangeland.

Description

This report and the accompanying maps summarize the results of the soil survey of the County of Flagstaff in the Eastern Alberta Plains physiographic region of east-central Alberta. Most of the county is characterized by nearly-level to gently-undulating topography with deranged drainage and numerous small depressions and sloughs. Steeper topography occurs in the eastern third of the county in areas of hummocky moraine and incised meltwater scour channels.

Description

This area covered in this survey was covered by all or parts of three separate soil survey reports: the Sounding Creek Sheet (1927), the Rainy Hills Sheet (1937), and the Sullivan Lake Sheet (1938). Advances in soil survey techniques, and a better understanding of soil genesis through accumulated research in soil science, has necessitated a re-survey of the area.
