  1. 1. Diving Deep: Seabird foraging tactics and local prey field

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Författare :Elin Andersson Sjöholm; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Common Guillemot; Uria aalge; Optimal Foraging theory; Hydroacoustic data; resource selection;

    Sammanfattning : Foragers in patchy environments need to decide what patches to use and how to allocate their time between them. Optimal foraging theory describes these choices through the relationship between energy expenditure and energy gain. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Effects of early exposure to fluoxetine on behavioural development in zebrafish

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Moa Forssten; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Fluoxetine; zebrafish; development; behaviour;

    Sammanfattning : Many pharmaceuticals are stable molecules and after human excretion they enter the wastewater facilities where roughly 60 % is removed. The remaining residues will affect the concentration in close by streams and at the effluent, where fish like to spawn. Therefore, the development and behaviour of aquatic life is potentially at risk. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Biokinetic Characterization of Methane Oxidizing Microbiomes Co-metabolizing Trace Organic Chemicals

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Författare :Hugo Möller; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Methanotrophs; organic micropollutants; co-metabolism; biodegradation; applied microbiology; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The presence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in wastewater effluents is concerning, as they pose a threat to human and aquatic health. Biodegradation via methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) is an attractive option, as the method is cheap and effective. MOB can co-metabolize a variety of substrates, there among organic micropollutants.

  4. 4. Headfirst into shallow water - Wetland restoration and its contribution to the Habitats Directive

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Växtekologi och evolution; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Elin Brandt Korall; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Wetlands; GIS; Restoration; Rewetting; Ecology; LONA; Habitats Directive; Natura 2000; Nature conservation; Våtmarker; GIS; Geografiska informationssystem; Restaurering; Återvätning; LONA; Art- och Habitatsdirektivet; Natura 2000; Naturvård;

    Sammanfattning : Located in the borderland between aquatic and terrestrial environments, the wetlands cover a wide spectrum of habitats and enable living standards for a great variety of organisms. Although important habitats, a great extent of the original wetlands have disappeared in Europe and Sweden due to anthropogenic disturbances. LÄS MER

  5. 5. THE FIRST ACTIVE ACID SULFATE SOIL FOUND OUTSIDE THE BALTIC BASIN, IN VISKA VALLEY WEST COAST OF SWEDEN

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Johanna Bergström; [2023-09-15]
    Nyckelord :Acid sulfate soil; AS soil; ERT measurements; resistivity; Baltic basin; Swedish west coast; acidification; Tapes transgression;

    Sammanfattning : Acid sulfate (AS) soils are naturally formed but are responsible for environmental problem due to its low pH. Drainage of active AS soils can lead to mobilization of harmful metals and a severe pH drop in nearby aquatic environments, which in turn may harm the ecological conditions. LÄS MER
