  1. 1. Temperature Optimum for Biomass Production of two Species of Benthic Diatoms

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

    Author : Vilmer Jansson; [2023-06-22]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Diatoms and other algae can be cultivated and beneficially used in several sectors with applications ranging from nutrient recycling to production of high-valued biomaterials used by the green energy industries, in pharmaceutical products or as food supplements. In this experimental study, the temperature optimum for biomass production was tested for two species of benthic diatoms, Diatoma sp. READ MORE

  4. 3. Diatoms from the late Holocene of the western Chukchi Sea, Arctic Ocean: environmental signals and palaeoceanography

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Author : Erik Browaldh; [2022]
    Keywords : diatoms; late holocene; SWERUS-L2-2-PC1; Herald Canyon; Chukchi Sea; ice-algae; sympagic; cryophilic; warm water diatom; Bering Sea Water species; bottom water temperature; BWT; benthic foraminifera; palaeothermometry; ice dynamics; Fragilariopsis; Fossula arctica; Paralia sulcata; Shionodiscus oestrupii; Thalassiosira simonsenii; Chaetoceros; Chaetoceros sp. 7;

    Abstract : The sediment Core SWERUS-L2-2-PC1 (2PC) retrieved from the Chukchi Sea, Arctic Ocean sits in an oceanographically dynamic location at the Arctic-Pacific Ocean gateway. The 8.3 m-long core was retrieved in Herald Canyon at the marginal ice zone at 57 m depth. READ MORE

  5. 4. Kiselalgers anpassning till ljus : en jämförelse mellan Brachysira neoexilis och Eunotia incisa

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Ylva Friheden; [2019]
    Keywords : Kiselalger; Bacillariophyceae; tillväxtsexperiment; ljusintensitet;

    Abstract : Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka ljuspreferenserna hos kiselalgerna Brachysira neoexilis (BNEO) och Eunotia incisa (EINC), alltså vid vilka ljusintervall de har störst tillväxt. I samband med vattenkvalitetsundersökningar så skulle kunskapen om hur ljus påverkar kiselalgernas tillväxt minska den osäkerhet som finns kring hur andra påverkansfaktorer, förutom näring och organiska ämnen faktiskt kan påverka vattenkvalitetsindex.

  6. 5. Herbivores effect on coral reefs : relationships between sea urchins, coral health and algae cover

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Linnéa Fridén; [2019]
    Keywords : sea urchins; coral health; coral bleaching; algae cover; correlation; influence;

    Abstract : Coral reefs are vital to marine ecology. The population dynamic on coral reefs are complex and sensitive to natural and anthropogenic changes. Various factors can affect the population dynamic and inflict change. Coral bleaching is threatening coral reefs worldwide and is a hot topic in today’s climate challenges. READ MORE
