1. Investigating organic fertilisers’ ability to mineralize during the first month of plant propagation
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)Abstract : There are many forms of organc fertilizers produced and sold in the EU, and it can be difficult to assess which ones are the best in regards of nutrient content and the rate of mineraliztion. Two separate trials were conducted to assess the mineralization rates of three different organic fertilizers, available for private customers, on the Swedish market. READ MORE

2. Enhancing Mineral Carbonation of Olivine with CO2
University essay from KTH/KemiteknikAbstract : Koldioxidutsläpp (CO2) från energiproduktionsindustrin och transportsektorn globalt påverkar miljön negativt. Länder har enats om att minska utsläppen för att nå målet om en genomsnittlig temperaturökning på 1,5 °C till 2030. READ MORE

3. Separation and acidification of digested animal manure : properties of the future organic fertilizers
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentAbstract : Agricultural areas with a high animal density contribute to eutrophication in waterbodies and seas worldwide due to accumulation of nutrients around animal farms. Animal manure is heavy and bulky, thus unpractical to transport long distances and new techniques have been developed to refine animal manure and make it easier to transport. READ MORE

4. ARCTIC MYCORRHIZAL INTERACTIONS UNDER CLIMATE CHANGE
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : The Arctic is experiencing climate change at an extreme rate, affecting both the rates of plant growth and nutrient cycling. Due to the changes in temperature, but also in nutrient cycling, with increased nutrient mineralization and decreasing P:N ratio (phosphorus, P and nitrogen, N), the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM) that are prevalent in warmer soils have shown the potential to increase in the otherwise unfavorable Arctic environment.

5. Explicit consideration of microbes in quantification of gross N rates based on N-tracing model
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperAbstract : When studying the nitrogen cycle in soils, the principle of 15N isotope dilution and enrichment is commonly used to measure gross N transformation rates. The measuring data of both organic and inorganic nitrogen substrates are therefore be analysed by Ntrace model. READ MORE
