  1. 1. Nitrogen legacies in agricultural catchments : an analysis of 170 years of nitrogen legacies data in four Swedish agricultural catchments

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

    Författare :Laura-Ainhoa Prischl; [2023]
    Nyckelord :nitrogen mass balance; nitrogen surplus; land use trajectories; hysteresis effect; water quality; agriculture; nitrogen surplus; land use trajectories; hysteresis effect; water quality; agriculture;

    Sammanfattning : Despite the enforcement of legislation and application of measures, nitrogen (N) levels continue to be high in streams. One of the reasons for the low N reduction, is the legacy accumulation of N. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Sustainable Forests? : values, perceptions and expectations among three stakeholder groups in the light of the Swedish bioeconomy transition

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Författare :Tove Stenius; [2017]
    Nyckelord :forest bioeconomy; reindeer herding; sustainability; resilience; National Forest Program; diversity; land-use; rural planning;

    Sammanfattning : This research investigates different perspectives on the current forest bioeconomy investments in the north of Sweden. The research takes its stance from a broad definition of the concept of diversity, transecting both social and natural science, in its attempts to answer the thesis question: What suggested changes in forestry and forest governance follow from different visions of the bioeconomy transition, and what impacts do these have on aspects of diversity in the north of Sweden? The research is conducted in the light of the National Forest Program, which is currently being developed for the government through a series of working group processes, where a transition from a dependency on fossil fuel towards bioeconomy is highlighted as one of the driving motives behind the program.

  3. 3. Assessment of numerical integration schemes and boundary conditions for Lagrangian tracking of marine debris

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

    Författare :Joel Kronborg; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Lagrangian tracking; PARCELS; Runge-Kutta; time stepping; boundary conditions; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Sammanfattning : A growing environmental issue today is the amount plastic pollution in the ocean. To investigate how it might affect marine life, an important aspect is to study how plastics are transported by ocean currents and where it ends up. This can be done by use of Lagrangian simulation of plastic particles in computer ocean models. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Estimating Nighttime and Daytime PopulationsUsing Space Syntax : A Case Study of the Greater Copenhagen Area

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för Industriell utveckling, IT och Samhällsbyggnad

    Författare :Maryam Zandi; [2013]
    Nyckelord :Space Syntax;

    Sammanfattning : Space syntax uncovers hidden perspectives on geographic spaces and facilitates the study of the structure and form of spaces. Correlations of the human movement and space configurations are interesting observations revealed by space syntax. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Multiple scale habitat selection of the Siberian jay Perisoreus infaustus in a sub arctic managed forest landscape

    L3-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Christopher Heap; [2008]
    Nyckelord :Siberian jay; forestry; activity; telemetry; conservation;

    Sammanfattning : Habitat selection studies are important in increasing our understanding of population patterns and processes in fragmented and spatially heterogeneous landscapes. Identification and characterisation of a species' habitat requirements are essential in guiding land-use management practices aimed at the protection of critical habitats. LÄS MER
