4. Sustainable phytoremediation potential of locally adapted plants in the Chinandega region, Nicaragua
Master-uppsats, Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekoteknik- och hållbart byggandeSammanfattning : In order to analyze the socio-economic and environmental system that is demanding soil remediation solutions in Chinandega region (Nicaragua), a DPSIR framework was used to model the system and to point out opportunities and limitations for phytoremediation applications in the region. An inventory of naturalized and autochthonous plant species was conducted while exploring their socioecological and economic co-benefits like potential candidates for sustainable phytoremediation strategies in Chinandega.

5. Att synliggöra ekonomins påverkan på naturen: miljöräkenskaper i svensk politik 1966-2017
