  1. 1. Effect of stand age on soil respiration in managed vs unmanaged Scots pine stands

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Richard Engholm; [2024]
    Keywords : chronosequence; soil respiration; total respiration; autotrophic respiration; heterotrophic respiration; forestry;

    Abstract : How the forests in Sweden and around the world have been, and are still today, managed is a hot debate. The rotation forestry that is commonly used in Sweden has been the focus of debate regarding whether it is a sustainable management method, and whether it should be changed. READ MORE

  2. 2. The influence of soil management on soil health : an on-farm study

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Hanna Williams; [2018]
    Keywords : crop diversity; soil health assessment; indicator; soil quality; ecosystem services;

    Abstract : The capacity of a soil to provide ecosystem services without negative impacts on the environment is defined as soil health. Healthy soils are a fundamental resource for agricultural production and our ability to feed a growing global population. We must therefore increase our understanding of how soil health is affected by soil management. READ MORE

  3. 3. Hur en ökad marktemperatur påverkar fotosyntes och markrespiration i en boreal skog

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Hanna André; Agnes Bondesson; [2014]
    Keywords : klimatförändringar; växthuseffekten; boreal skog; fotosyntes; markrespiration; koldioxid; marktemperatur;

    Abstract : During the year of 2008, a powerful earthquake hit the southern part of Iceland, which changed the geothermal conditions in the area around the city of Hveragerdi. Elevated soil temperatures in a nearby forest plantation have contributed to a unique opportunity for researchers to study how an increased soil temperature affects the boreal forest ecosystem, something that partly can be connected to the climate changes which are happening today.

  4. 4. Temperaturens och den fotosyntetiskt aktiva strålningens effekt på avgång och inlagring av kol på en dikad torvjord

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Kristian Österlund; [2013]
    Keywords : torv; markrespiration; NEE; fotosyntes;

    Abstract : The decomposition of organic carbon in drained peat soils is a major source of carbon di-oxide in Sweden. A big part of these drained peat soils are used in agriculture and it is a big challenge to slow down their decomposition. READ MORE
