  1. 6. Kroppen i kretsloppet : alternativa gravplatsers potential

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Cecilia Börjestrand; [2022]
    Nyckelord :begravningsplats; kyrkogård; gravskick; begängelseform; ekologi; djupekologi; ekosofi; animism; naturlig begravning; sekularitet;

    Sammanfattning : Ett mer naturligt förhållningssätt till praktik rörande begravning har spridit sig de senaste decennierna i främst Europa och Nordamerika, där kristendomens dominans över processerna och platserna ratas, och nya alternativa skapas. Dessa alternativ har ofta en mer direkt kontakt mellan kropp och jord, där människan kan utgöra näring i ett biologiskt kretslopp, och kopplingen till vegetation ovan jord och ekosystem är större.

  2. 7. Characterization of ulvan polysaccharide degrading enzymes from Wenyingzhuangia fucanilytica

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Författare :Erik Apelqvist; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Enzyme; Enzymatic characterization; Recombinant protein producaiton; Protien purification; E. coli; W. fucanilytica; Transformation; Overexpression; Seaweed; Ulvan; Polysaccharides; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to fully characterize the enzyme WFp-105, including bioinformatic analysis, structural modeling, full activity and stability characterization and product determination. As well as for the enzyme WFp-37; optimize protein production in regard to expression strains and cultivation temperature, analyzing the genomic context as well as performing an initial activity detection.

  3. 8. Examining the protective services of mangroves at a regional scale in Indonesia

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Mikaela Gomez; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Mangroves; Nature-Based Solutions; Disaster Risk Reduction; Exposure; GIS; Remote Sensing; Science General;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the exposure of the coastal population of Kalimantan, Indonesia changed as a result of coastal mangrove loss and population growth. The change of exposure has therefore been calculated through the loss of mangrove biomass, through deforestation and degradation, over time, as well the increase in population living within 10km2 of disturbed mangroves.

  4. 9. Assessing the impact of post-fire restoration interventions using spectral vegetation indices: A case study in El Bruc, Spain

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Bernat Dorado Guerrero; [2022]
    Nyckelord :geography; GIS; restoration intervention; drylands; monitoring; BACI; spectral vegetation indices; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Ecological restoration has become an increasingly used practice to revert degraded land and mitigate the effects of extreme events in vulnerable biomes such as drylands. Methods to improve the assessment of these restoration interventions are essential to ensure their success, optimize resources and identify improvement aspects for future interventions. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Relating the impacts of regenerative farming practices to soil health and carbon sequestration on Gotland, Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Författare :Laerke Daverkosen; Alena Holzknecht; [2021]
    Nyckelord :regenerative agriculture; soil health; carbon sequestration; Gotland Sweden ;

    Sammanfattning : Land degradation, greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss through agriculture are some of the greatest challenges we are facing today. Fertile and productive soils are the basis of life on this planet and need to be protected and restored to support a growing population and lower negative impacts of climate change. LÄS MER
