  1. 1. Influence of different carbon sources on methane fluxes in sediments of eelgrass beds and unvegetated areas: a case study on the Swedish west coast

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

    Author : Hampus Holmberg; [2023-06-22]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : One of the best ways to mitigate climate change is through natural carbon sequestration. An efficient way to mitigate climate change is through carbon sequestration from coastal habitats. READ MORE

  3. 2. The geochemical status of the surface water and the sediments in the estuary of the Sangis River, Kalix, Sweden

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Anton Sandberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Framboidal pyrite; dredging; Sangis River; estuary; redox ladder; sediment; sediment cores; SEM-EDS;

    Abstract : It has been common in forestry and agriculture to drain waterlogged areas through ditching in order to cultivate them. The ditches that drain water are usually connected to some watercourse, such as a river. READ MORE

  4. 3. Global Warming Induced by Oceanic Anoxic Event 1a Had a Pronounced Impact on the Early Cretaceous Terrestrial Vegetation of Southern Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Paleobiologi

    Author : Marcos Amores; [2022]
    Keywords : palynology; spore-pollen; biostratigraphy; oceanic anoxic event 1a; high-latitude; Early Cretaceous;

    Abstract : The Mesozoic is punctuated by several rapid global warming events that are marked by the worldwide deposition of organic-rich marine sediments. These events, known as oceanic anoxic events (OAEs), are characterised by intervals where the worldwide carbon cycle suffers a disruption due to major palaeoceanographic and climatic shifts, leading to anoxic marine environments and the creation of black shales.

  5. 4. Marine Geology and Holocene Paleoceanographyof the Southern Quark, Baltic Sea

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Author : Anton Wagner; [2022]
    Keywords : Bottom currents; Sortable silt; Radiocarbon dating; Baltic Sea stages; Estuarine circulation; Marine sediment cores; Marine geophysical mapping;

    Abstract : The Understen-Märket trench is located in the Southern Quark and is the only deep-water connection between the Baltic Propper and the Gulf of Bothnia. Bathymetric mapping reveals a number of eroded channels and drift deposits exists on the seafloor, indicating that the area is heavily affected by current activity. READ MORE

  6. 5. Record of the end-Triassic mass extinction in shallow marine carbonates: the Lorüns section (Austria)

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Keywords : sedimentology; geochemistry; ooids; oolites; oncoids; oncolites; Triassic; Jurassic; Rhaetian; Hettangian; ocean acidification; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The end-Triassic mass extinction (ETE) was one of the five big mass extinctions of the Phanerozoic and occurred ~201 Ma ago. Research agrees that the main triggering factor for the ETE was the eruptions of the Central Atlantic Magmatic Volcanic Province (CAMP), linked to the break-up of the supercontinent Pangaea. READ MORE
