  1. 1. Effective soil organic carbon monitoring in perennial agriculture systems - Sampling protocol development and evaluation

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

    Författare :Maja Holm; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Physical geography; ecosystem science; soil organic carbon; soil sampling; perennial crops; carbon sequestration; carbon farming; Kernza™; soil organic carbon stock; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Perennial agriculture systems are gaining ground as a more sustainable alternative to conventional annual agriculture, partly for their potential to increase the soil organic carbon (SOC) content. Carbon farming is another hot topic for SOC sequestration, as it creates economic incentives for farmers. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Soil Organic Carbon in Boreal Agricultural Soil : Tillage interruption and its effect on Soil Organic Carbon

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Hilda Alfredsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :soil organic carbon; agriculture; tillage interruption; carbon sequestration;

    Sammanfattning : Farmers have been disrupting the carbon cycle ever since humans started converting forests to agricultural lands. But are there farming practices that can be applied to increase the carbon storage in the soil and subsequently counteract increasing carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere? In this study I investigate if soil organic matter (SOM) and soil organic carbon (SOC) change with longer interruption between tillage events. LÄS MER

  4. 3. En hållbart intensifierad slåttervall med vitklöver : en litteratursammanställning

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Författare :Johanna Forss; [2023]
    Nyckelord :etablering; kväve; skördesystem; Trifolium repens; vall; vitklöver;

    Sammanfattning : Fördelarna med att inkludera vall i växtföljden är många, till exempel kolinlagring, markförbättrande egenskaper och ogräsbekämpning. Intresset för odling av vall ökar när det finns fler avsättningsmöjligheter och ses som ett medel för att uppnå en hållbar intensifiering av odlingssystemet. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Changes in lake-water organic carbon over recent centuries in northern Sweden, Västerbotten : Past and present mechanisms, and the potential implications on mercury

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Magnusson Petter; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Lake-water TOC; Summer forest farming; traditional agriculture; land-use; geochemistry; mercury;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the current increase in lake water total organic carbon (LW-TOC), many studies have investigated the long-term dynamics using lake sediments. However, these have mainly been focused on Sweden’s south and south-central parts. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Assessing the EnvironmentalPerformance of an In-Store VerticalFarming System : Identifying environmental hotspots for an in-store hydroponic vertical farmingsystem, using Life Cycle Assessment

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Axel Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Vertical Farming”; “Life Cycle Assessment; Sweden; Environmental impacts; industrial symbiosis; Urban farming; Vertical Farming; Livscykelanalys; Sverige; Miljöpåverkan; Industriell symbios; Stadsodling;

    Sammanfattning : The world is facing many challenges to be able to ensure food security, such as anincreased food demand coming from an expanding world population andurbanisation, worsened agricultural opportunities from increased land deteriorationand significant environmental impacts coming from the food sector. Thus, there is aneed for new agricultural solutions to meet our needs whilst decreasing impactssimultaneously. LÄS MER
