Simulating diluted bitumen spills in boreal lake limnocorrals-part 2: Factors affecting the physical characteristics and submergence of diluted bitumen
We examined the fate and behaviour of diluted bitumen (dilbit) as it weathered for 70 days in
freshwater limnocorrals (10 m diameter× 1.5 m depth) installed in a boreal lake to simulate …

Simulating diluted bitumen spills in boreal lake limnocorrals-Part 1: Experimental design and responses of hydrocarbons, metals, and water quality parameters
Large-scale, in-lake enclosures (limnocorrals) were used to simulate spills of diluted
bitumen (dilbit) in a boreal lake. In this study we use these simulated spills, which covered a …

Fate of polycyclic aromatic compounds from diluted bitumen spilled into freshwater limnocorrals
Diluted bitumens (dilbits) are produced by mixing highly viscous bitumen with lighter
petroleum products to facilitate transport. The unique physical and chemical properties of …

Chemical Weathering Patterns of Diluted Bitumen Spilled into Freshwater Limnocorrals
Due to the sudden nature of oil spills, few controlled studies have documented how oil
