  1. 1. Effekten av gödsling med arGrow® granulat på barrplantors tillväxt efter de första två växtsäsongerna

    University essay from SLU/School for Forest Management

    Author : Karl-Anders Wickberg; Mattias Eliasson; [2023]
    Keywords : arginin; plantgödsling; aminosyror;

    Abstract : Tillgången på näringsämnen i marken är mycket stort i förhållande till växternas behov, men ändå är näringstillförseln ofta en tillväxtbegränsande faktor för växterna. De näringsämnen som behövs i störst mängd är kväve, som ofta är hårt bundet i svårlösliga kemiska föreningar. READ MORE

  3. 2. Separation and acidification of digested animal manure : properties of the future organic fertilizers

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Marie Björs; [2023]
    Keywords : Digestate; Eutrophication; Farmers’ survey; Plasma activation; Screw press;

    Abstract : Agricultural areas with a high animal density contribute to eutrophication in waterbodies and seas worldwide due to accumulation of nutrients around animal farms. Animal manure is heavy and bulky, thus unpractical to transport long distances and new techniques have been developed to refine animal manure and make it easier to transport. READ MORE

  4. 3. ARCTIC MYCORRHIZAL INTERACTIONS UNDER CLIMATE CHANGE

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Otto Minas; [2022-07-06]
    Keywords : Climate change; Arctic ecology; arbuscular mycorrhiza; graminoids; plant ecology; soil ecology; carbon cycle.;

    Abstract : The Arctic is experiencing climate change at an extreme rate, affecting both the rates of plant growth and nutrient cycling. Due to the changes in temperature, but also in nutrient cycling, with increased nutrient mineralization and decreasing P:N ratio (phosphorus, P and nitrogen, N), the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM) that are prevalent in warmer soils have shown the potential to increase in the otherwise unfavorable Arctic environment.

  5. 4. Explicit consideration of microbes in quantification of gross N rates based on N-tracing model

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Tsai-wei Tang; [2022-01-26]
    Keywords : N-tracing model; microbial biomass; gross N quantification; organic N; mineralization; immobilization;

    Abstract : When studying the nitrogen cycle in soils, the principle of 15N isotope dilution and enrichment is commonly used to measure gross N transformation rates. The measuring data of both organic and inorganic nitrogen substrates are therefore be analysed by Ntrace model. READ MORE

  6. 5. Biochar from separated digestate and pig manure as soil amendment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Lovisa Nissen; [2022]
    Keywords : separation; screw press; incubation study; CO2 emission; N mineralization;

    Abstract : The situation in and around the Baltic Sea, with large areas with hypoxia in the sea and areas in the watershed with a high concentration of animal farms, has led to a need to increase the nutrient recycling of animal manure. High levels of phosphorus (P) in the soil lead to leaching, and by reducing the P-level in organic fertilizers, this leaching can be reduced. READ MORE
