  1. 1. Utilizing wood ash to stimulate algal growth in mine waters from northern Sweden

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknik

    Author : Katelyn Murphy; [2023]
    Keywords : acid rock drainage; acid mine drainage; controlled eutrophication;

    Abstract : Acid rock drainage (ARD), caused by the oxidation of sulphide bearing minerals, continues to be an environmental impact of both closed and operational mines, leading to waters with low pH values and high metal concentrations (Park et al., 2019). READ MORE

  3. 2. Mercury accumulation in lake sediments on different time scales – the influence of algal primary production

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Anne Rebotzke; [2023]
    Keywords : mercury; lake sediment; primary productivity; algal scavenging; biogenic silica; diatom proxy; chlorophyll-a; organic matter;

    Abstract : The aim of this work is to test the proposed approach of algal scavenging as a driver of sediment mercury (Hg) on different time scales and to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms of Hg accumulation in lake sediments. A 3000-year sediment record from Nylandssjön in northern Sweden was analysed for this purpose, as well as a 20-year sediment record from the seasonal sediment traps of this lake. READ MORE
