The Ann and Sandy Cross Conservation Area (near Priddis) which is on the fringe of this and the aspen parkland ecoregion is interested in developing a long-term restoration plan for their site. Determining pre-European settlement vegetation patterns can be challenging, especially in areas with few historic written accounts. Thus, we seek to combine numerous documentary and environmental data sources to reconstruct the vegetation community for the Cross Conservation Area site. Specifically, we focus on soil conditions, tree-ages, historic aerial images, and the late 19<\/span><sup><span lang=\"EN-US\">th<\/span><\/sup><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0Century Dominion Land Survey to piece together a target for restoring the site to pre-European conditions. This project is in the early stages, so we present some theoretical background and preliminary results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span lang=\"EN-US\">Presenter Biography<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>Emily Lambert is an undergraduate student at the University of Calgary, in the department of Geography.\u00a0 Her interests include Biogeography and Landscape Ecology, and in the future, she is hoping to be doing work in landscape management, restoration and conservation.\u00a0 She in the Vice President of Events of the Palliser Club at the university, which is\u00a0the undergraduate geography club.\u00a0In her spare time, she enjoys being outdoors, volunteering at a wildlife center, and teaching karate.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>David Goldblum is an associate professor in the Department of Geography at the University of Calgary.
