  1. 1. Sediment transport in small streams is related to riparian buffer width : a comparison between wide and narrow riparian buffers

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Rasmus Staaf; [2022]
    Keywords : Riparian Zone; Protective Zone; Headwater Stream; Forestry; Clear – cut Harvest; Organic Sediment; Inorganic Sediment; Near Stream Logging;

    Abstract : This study aims to provide information about how different widths of riparian buffers affect the quantity and quality of sediments transported in a small stream after a clear – cut harvest. Small streams have critical influences on downstream rivers and excessive transported sediments can have large negative effects on the aquatic system. READ MORE

  3. 2. Evaluating abundance of deciduous trees in production forests along small stream : can Sweden meet current policy goals without intensive management

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Jessica Åström; [2020]
    Keywords : Riparian forests; small stream; strategic management objectives; deciduous; forest policy change;

    Abstract : Riparian zones are important for many ecological functions such as for providing shade to streams and leaf litter to instream organisms, as well as acting as filters for sediments and excess nutrients that are released during forestry operations. Riparian areas are also important for preservation of biodiversity. READ MORE

  4. 3. How are riparian buffer zones around Swedish headwaters implemented? : a case study

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Anna Jonsson; [2018]
    Keywords : riparian buffer zones; Sweden; small streams; forestry; skyddszoner; Sverige; små bäckar; skogsbruk;

    Abstract : Riparian zones are the transition zones between aquatic and terrestrial environments. They perform numerous important ecological functions. To protect these functions, keeping riparian buffer zones when performing forestry operations around streams is a commonly used practice. READ MORE

  5. 4. Climate change impact on water balance and export of dissolved organic carbon : a sub-catchment modelling approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Stina Sandgren; [2017]
    Keywords : HYPE; hydrological modelling; DOC; climate change; water balance; specific discharge; hydrology; climate scenarios; carbon cycle; mire catchment; forest catchment; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Climate change will alter the hydrological cycle in the 21st century with implications for the water balance and water quality. As characteristics of the landscape may vary significantly between nearby locations, hydrological models need to be able to delineate responses attributed to specific landscape characteristics, to estimate their responses to altered climatic drivers.

  6. 5. Inhibition of Nitrification in Industrial Wastewater - Identification of Sources

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Vidar Aspelin; Jennifer Ekholm; [2017]
    Keywords : nitrite; nitrate; industrial wastewater; inhibition of nitrification; additivity; nitrifikationshämning; water engineering; environmental engineering; vattenförsörjningsteknik; avloppsteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The discharge of industrial wastewaters (WWs) to wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can be problematic due to their sometimes elevated concentrations of toxic compounds compared to municipal wastewater. Also, industrial WWs often contain compounds that are unique to the specific production, and the receiving WWTP is not always designed to remove these compounds. READ MORE
