TL;DR: The age-depth relationships show that atmospheric contamination by trace metals (Ag, Cd, Sb, Tl, but also V, Ni, and Mo which are enriched in bitumen) has been declining in northern Alberta for decades.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peat bogs in northern Alberta, Canada reveal decades of declining atmospheric Pb contamination
William Shotyk,Peter G. Appleby,Beatriz Bicalho,Lauren J. Davies,Duane G. Froese,Iain Grant-Weaver,Michael Krachler,Gabriel Magnan,Gillian Mullan-Boudreau,Tommy Noernberg,Rick Pelletier,Bob Shannon,Simon van Bellen,Claudio Zaccone +13 more
TL;DR: Peat cores were collected from six bogs in northern Alberta to reconstruct changes in the atmospheric deposition of Pb, a valuable tracer of human activities as discussed by the authors, showing that Pb contamination has been in decline for decades.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-resolution age modelling of peat bogs from northern Alberta, Canada, using pre- and post-bomb 14C, 210Pb and historical cryptotephra

TL;DR: In this article, variations in the chronometers and individual site histories from six ombrotrophic peat bogs in central and northern Alberta were investigated and then integrated using OxCal's P_Sequence function to produce a single Bayesian age model.
