  1. 1. Metaller i Vombsjön - Mygglarver som bioindikator för miljöövervakning

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

    Författare :Siri Bengtsson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Bioindicators; Chironomidae; Freshwater source; Lake Vomb; Metal concentrations; Pollution; Sediment sampling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates concentrations of eight metals (Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb, Hg, Cr, Ni, As) in the freshwater resource Lake Vomb, located in the south of Sweden (Scania), and explores the potential use of deformed Chironomidae larvae as bioindicator. Sediment samples from six locations were analysed against threshold values from the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management and background values from the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency.

  3. 2. TROFISK ÖVERFÖRING OCH TOXISKA EFFEKTER AV (NANO-)PARTIKLAR FRÅN ELEKTRONISKT AVFALL

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap; Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Elvira Hagman; [2023-06-22]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Today, nanoparticles (NPs) are being included in an increasing number of products, and with that comes the dispersion of NPs in the environment. However, the ecological impact of NPs remains largely unexplored, particularly in regards to real emissions with complex compositions of NPs and other pollutants. LÄS MER

  4. 3. A parasitic bivalve affects the interaction between a native and an invasive salmonid

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Brander Isac; [2023-04-18]
    Nyckelord :Glochidia larvae; Infestation class; General dominance behavior; Dominant subordinate; Strikes;

    Sammanfattning : The glochidia larvae of the freshwater pear mussel parasitize on juvenile brown trout during their maturation into tiny mussels. The parasitation has several negative impacts on the trout, one of the less studied being behavioral effects. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Trends in mountain birch seed abundance and its relation to temperature and moth abundance: a ten-year study from Swedish Lapland

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Frida Gustafsson; [2023-02-09]
    Nyckelord :Betula pubescens; climate change; seed production; Epirrita autumnata; Operophtera brumata; subarctic ecology; folivory; larval abundance;

    Sammanfattning : Boreal forest is the world’s largest terrestrial biome. Being one of the most ubiquitous and coldtolerant tree species in Sweden, the mountain birch forms a unique deciduous treeline and marks the forest-tundra ecotone. LÄS MER

  7. 5. BSF-colony management efficiency at a large scale fly larvae composting company in Kenya – A field study

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Hilda Anderberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Black soldier fly composting; BSF-colony; industrial scale; parasitic wasps; Amerikansk vapenfluga; fluglarvskompostering; storskaligt; parasitsteklar;

    Sammanfattning : The majority of organic waste globally is either dumped or placed on landfills, which can result in spreading of disease and pests, methane gas emissions, the deterioration of landscapes and odour pollution. One of the solutions to poor organic waste management is to create value from waste. LÄS MER
