1. Biogeochemistry and Peat Properties of Restored Peatlands
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : Globally, peatlands comprise the most important soil organic carbon pool storing approximately one third of all terrestrial soil carbon. Drainage can turn peatlands to net sources of carbon dioxide. Peatlands have historically been drained to increase the productivity of agriculture and forestry. LÄS MER
2. Återvätning av Hakamosse : En vattenkemisk undersökning samt underlag till kontrollprogram
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhetSammanfattning : Historically, approximately 25% of Sweden's wetlands have been ditched and drained in favour of agriculture, forestry, infrastructure and peat extraction. Major investments have been made in recent years to recreate the natural and environmental benefits that have been lost. LÄS MER
3. Impacts of peatland drainage on soil properties : a study of drainage effects on boreal peatlands in northern Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : Peatlands cover approximately 3% of the terrestrial surface on Earth and perform several important ecosystem functions, such as carbon storage and water retention. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, approximately 2 million hectares of peatlands in Sweden were drained to manage the land for forestry and agriculture. LÄS MER
4. Peatland restoration: A mossy affair? : The similarities of the vegetation communitiesbetween restored bogs and natural bogs.
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Peatlands function as important global carbon sinks as peatlands store 30% to 40% of the total soil carbon even though peatlands only cover 3% of the Earth's terrestrial surface. However, drainage activities have damaged the ecosystem and caused many peatlands to function as carbon sources instead. LÄS MER
5. Effekter på klimat, hydrologi och biologisk mångfald av en potentiell våtmarksrestaurering i ån Sennan, Halmstad Kommun.
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskapSammanfattning : 1928 beslutades att ån Sennan norr om Karlstorp skulle sänkas, rätas ut och delvis kanaliseras för att öka arealen produktiv jordbruksmark. Men åtgärderna orsakade även flera problem både inom och utanför det område som man undersökte innan genomförandet. LÄS MER
