  1. 16. Drivers of decomposition across Sphagnum bog margins

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för miljö- och livsvetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Emil Nordström; [2022]
    Keywords : Peatlands; tea bag index; edge effects; carbon storage; carbon sequestration; waterlogging; Torvmark; kanteffekter; kollagring; koldioxidbindning;

    Abstract : Peatlands provide multiple ecosystem services, including extensive carbon sequestration and storage, yet many peatlands have been degraded or destroyed. Peatlands carbon storage capacity is connected to inherently low decomposition rates, causing the build-up of organic matter.

  3. 17. Evaluation of Streamflow Predictions in an Ungauged Swedish Catchment : A Study of Håga River

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

    Author : Hanna Pierrau; [2022]
    Keywords : Hydrology; Predictions in ungauged basins; Hydrological signatures; rainfall-runoff modelling; HBV; S-HYPE; hydrologi; uppskattningar i områden utan mätstation; hydrologiska signaturer; modellering; HBV; S-HYPE;

    Abstract : The Håga river, located west of the Swedish city Uppsala, is currently without a proper gauging station. Knowing the streamflow is nonetheless important to, for example, be able to calculate the nutrient transport in the river. READ MORE

  4. 18. Valley of connections : Networks and spatiality in the archaeological landscape of the Morello Valley in central Sicily

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historia

    Author : Josefine Tegerdal Hune; [2022]
    Keywords : archaeology; spatial analysis; spatiality; GIS; landscape analysis; spatial network analysis; networks; connections; intervisibility; movement; accessibility;

    Abstract : This thesis uses GIS and spatial analysis to study connections in the archaeological landscape of the Morello Valley, in the Enna province in Sicily (Italy). To identify potential social relations, the idea of social networks is adapted into the spatial network analysis. READ MORE

  5. 19. Effects from Firn Density on Radar Derived Depth to Perennial Firn Aquifer, Lomonosovfonna, Svalbard

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

    Author : Daniel Estmark; [2022]
    Keywords : Perennial Firn Aquifer; Glacier; Svalbard; Mass balance; GPR; Lomonosovfonna; Flerårig firn akvifär; glaciär; Svalbard; massbalans; GPR; Lomonosovfonna;

    Abstract : As the climate is changing, there are clear impacts on the mass balance of glaciers. A glacier can be defined as the result of sufficient accumulation, in the form of snow and rain, compared to its ablation, the different types of glacial loss, a balance that then determines the size of the glacier.

  6. 20. Olika typer av våtmarkers roll i översvämningshantering : och vem bestämmer?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Harald Ris; [2022]
    Keywords : våtmark; översvämning; hydrologi; översiktsplanering;

    Abstract : Översvämningar är ett allt mer frekvent förekommande fenomen och riskerna de för med sig ökar i takt med att mer extremväder förutspås. Detta arbete handlar om några av problemen med översvämningar och hur våtmarker kan tänkas begränsa de förödande effekterna av dessa. READ MORE
