  1. 1. Influence of different carbon sources on methane fluxes in sediments of eelgrass beds and unvegetated areas: a case study on the Swedish west coast

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap; Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Hampus Holmberg; [2023-06-22]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : One of the best ways to mitigate climate change is through natural carbon sequestration. An efficient way to mitigate climate change is through carbon sequestration from coastal habitats. READ MORE

  2. 2. How do rainfall patterns change microbial induced carbon dynamics in soil?

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Maria João Silva; [2023]
    Keywords : drying and rewetting; bacterial growth; fungal growth; annual crops; perennial crops; soil depth; climate change; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Climate change is changing the precipitation patterns around the globe, leading to more extreme weather events like severe drought and heavy rainfalls. These events are intrinsically related to soil moisture fluctuations, which strongly modulates carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Carl Holmquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; LPJ-GUESS; drought; sensitivity analysis; evapotranspiration; gross primary production; hydraulic parameters; boreal forest.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards climate optimised riparian buffer zones in boreal forests

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

    Author : Alice Falk; [2022]
    Keywords : Forestry; Biogeochemical hotspots; Carbon dioxide; Methane;

    Abstract : Boreal forests have the potential to mitigate the increased concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere. However, forestry alters the soil biogeochemical processes which can cause an increase in GHG emissions from nearby water bodies, soil and vegetation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hydrodynamic Modelling of Spread of Perfluoroalkyl Octanoic Sulphonate and Perfluoroalkyl Hexanoic Sulphonate in Lake Ekoln

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Prajwol Prajapati; [2022]
    Keywords : Hydrodynamic modelling; water quality; PFAS; PFOS; PFHxS; MIKE 3 FM; Ekoln; Fyrisån;

    Abstract : Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are found ubiquitously in the environment across the globe.These substances have high persistence due to the strong carbon and fluorine bond. In the aquaticenvironment, due to high persistence, these substances don’t decay easily and are detected on the surfaceas well as in groundwater sources. READ MORE
