1. 21. Biokol som tillsats i vallensilage utfodrat till mjölkraskvigor : inverkan på konsumtionsförmåga, smältbarhet, träckens konsistens och färg, samt djurens renhet

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

   Author : Ida Milton; [2022]
   Keywords : Biokol; Smältbarhet; Vallensilage; Aktivt kol; Mjölkraskvigor; Konsumtionsförmåga; Träckkonsistens; Färg; Renhet;

   Abstract : Biokol är en produkt som tillverkas av organiskt material eller biomassa i en process som kallas pyrolys, då materialet upphettas i en temperatur från 350 till 1000 ̊C i en syrefri miljö. Biokol är lagringsstabil under lång tid innan den bryts ned och fungerar därför som kolsänka. READ MORE

3. 22. Reducing Carbon Emissions by Phasing Out Fossil Fuel Subsidies - Empirical Evidence from the Philippines

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

   Author : David Huber; [2022]
   Keywords : Fossil Fuel Subsidies; Emissions; Synthetic Control; Carbon Pricing; Philippines;

   Abstract : Eliminating subsidies on fossil fuels is widely recognized as one of the most important steps in the fight against climate change. While fossil fuel subsidies have received increasing attention in research, there is little to no empirical evidence confirming the theoretical emission reduction potential of phasing out such subsidies.

4. 23. Regenerative agriculture : a contested open moment

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

   Author : Rickard Hedling; [2022]
   Keywords : regenerative agriculture; alternative food networks; food sovereignty; political ecology; discourse food systems;

   Abstract : Agriculture is both heavily impacted by climate change and responsible for greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change. Transitioning towards more sustainable agricultural practices is therefore imperative and requires new ways of thinking about agricultural knowledge and technologies. READ MORE

5. 24. Emissions of nitrous oxide associated with frost killed cover crops

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

   Author : Felicia Olofsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Nitrous oxide; cover crops; greenhouse gases; freeze-thaw cycles;

   Abstract : Agriculture is responsible for approximately 80% of anthropogenic emissions of the potent and long-lived greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). N2O emissions from agricultural soils are characterized by high temporal and spatial variability and often peak in short bursts related to events such as precipitation, fertilization and soil thawing.

   Abstract : Is it possible to increase traffic flows and decrease stand stills in rush hour traffic by tweaking existing traffic light signals? A vehicle’s engine running on idle is not useful in physical terms and emits unnecessary exhausts. By investigating and observing signal phase times on site in Hangzhou, China, an effort was made to find out if it was possible to get better flow and thus lower emissions by changing the traffic signal programs.
