  1. 1. Modelling the Impact of Climate and Socio-Economic Changes on Nutrient Dynamics in the Catchment of Lake Vomb

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Yanhe Zhou; [2023]
    Keywords : Climate change; hydrological modelling; nutrient; RCP; socioeconomic development; SSP; SWAT; water quality modelling;

    Abstract : Climate change and socio-economic development are greatly affecting the quality of freshwater, especially the excessive accumulation of nutrients (N and P), which eventually leads to the occurrence of eutrophication. Lake Vomb is one of the main sources of drinking water in southern Sweden and the nutrient load from the catchment makes it a eutrophic lake with recurring algal blooms. READ MORE

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Water quality and organic matter linkages in waters draining arable fields

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Adam Eriksson; [2021]
    Keywords : Natural organic matter NOM ; particular organic matter POM ; dissolved organic matter DOM ; allochthonous; autochthonous; Florescence index FIX ; Freshness index BIX ; Humification index HIX ; SUVA 254; E2:E3; Spectral Slope; Observation fields; microbial matter; humic matter; unfiltered samples UF ; filtered samples F45 ;

    Abstract : This study investigated leaching of natural organic matter (NOM) in twelve Swedish arable fields with regards to the quality of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and particulate organic matter (POM), using Absorbance (UV-Vis) and fluorescence spectrometry (EEM). DOM is defined as organic matter (OM) 0.45 μm. READ MORE

  6. 5. Phosphorus accumulation in a free water surface wetland discharging into the Baltic Sea

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Manuela Watschka; [2021]
    Keywords : free water surface wetland; phosphorus accumulation; internal loading; sediment accumulation;

    Abstract : Eutrophication has been an issue of the Baltic Sea for a long time, causing de-creased water clarity due to enhanced growth of algae and oxygen depletion dur-ing the decomposition of algae. The study investigated the free water surface wetland Vilhelmsberg that treats agricultural runoff before the water reaches the Baltic Sea. READ MORE
