  1. 1. The use of regurgitated pellets from the great cormorant to detect the presence of the round goby

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Tim Dorup; [2023-08-07]
    Keywords : Invasive species; Regurgitated pellets; Great cormorant; Round goby; dPCR;

    Abstract : The round goby (Neogobius melanostomus) is an invasive alien species that poses one of the greatest threats to biodiversity and ecosystem services in Sweden today. The round goby originates from the Black Sea and Caspian Sea but has in recent decades rapidly spread with global shipping traffic to new areas in Europe and North America. READ MORE

  3. 2. Seasonal Variability of Ice Nucleating Particles (INP) in Southern Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Tamina Kabir; [2023-03-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cloud ice crystals are formed by ice-nucleating particles (INPs). The micro-physical properties of clouds, precipitation formation and the life cycle of clouds are strongly influenced by the presence or absence of ice. Therefore knowledge of atmospheric INP concentrations is crucial to improve weather forecasting and climate projections. READ MORE

  4. 3. Methanobacterium cauma sp. nov., a hydrogenotrophic, halotolerant methanogen from an active serpintinization system at Chimaera seep

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Aubree Stephens; [2023]
    Keywords : methanogen; archaea; hydrogenotroph; halotolerant; Methanobacterium; Chimaera seep; methanogenesis;

    Abstract : The archaeal branch of life represents some of the oldest life forms on Earth. Archaea are believed to have diverged from Prokaryotes roughly 3.5 billion years ago and it’s theorized that biological methane production started around this time as well. This would make methanogenesis one of the oldest metabolisms on our planet. READ MORE

  5. 4. Production of natural pigments from A. platensis grown on wastewater from local treatment facility.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Author : Hana Faulds; [2023]
    Keywords : Cyanobacteria; pigments; microalgae; wastewater treatment; biotechnology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Although microalgae have been considered for the biological treatment of wastewater since the 1950’s, their potential to efficiently remove pollutants from various streams remains largely untapped and is yet to be utilized at large scale. The production of algal biomass and extraction of high-value compounds has, however, become increasingly popular with large scale farms and biorefineries around the world producing many promising alternatives to petroleum-based products and processes.

  6. 5. Effect of Mycorrhizal Inoculation on Growth and Nutrient Uptake by Leek (Allium porrum) fertilized with Inorganic N Combined with Saturated Polonite

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

    Author : Emmanuel Owusu Boateng; [2023]
    Keywords : Phosphorus; Arbuscular Mycorrhiza fungi; Saturated polonite; Nitrogen; Allium porrum; Sustainability; circular economy;

    Abstract : The continuous rise in global population continues to increase the demand for food. Meeting this rise in demand requires an increase in agricultural input, such as applying fertilizers, including phosphorus (P). READ MORE
