1. The potential nitrous oxide emissions in a permanent grassland chronosequence
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant PathologySammanfattning : As a part of a larger project (Belowground biodiversity of grasslands – conservation needs and potential to promote sustainable agriculture), this study aims to investigate potential nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and microbial gene abundances needed for the production (nirS and nirK) and reduction (nosZI and nosZII) of nitrous oxide in soil of permanent grasslands of various age. Thegrasslands have at different times been converted to permanent grasslands and are of interest because of the possibility to shed more light about the passage of time’s affects on the soil microbialcommunities and their activity.

2. En jämförande studie av engångs- och flergångstextiler på operationsavdelningen : med fokus på aseptik och miljöpåverkan
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, SLU/Dept. of Clinical SciencesSammanfattning : Miljöförändringar är ett globalt problem som påverkar både människor och djur. Klimatförändringar blir allt vanligare och leder till allvarliga konsekvenser som höjda havsnivåer, extremväder och negativ inverkan på den biologiska mångfalden. LÄS MER
3. Metagenomic insights into AMR distributions in freshwaters and soils
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is rapidly becoming a public health issue, as more and more infectious bacteria become resistant to our known antibiotics. Suggested reasons for the proliferation of these strains are misuse and overuse of antimicrobials, especially on an industrial level, in agriculture, livestock and aquaculture. LÄS MER
4. Global Cultures – Critical Zone Observatories of Everyday Objects : (A Global Environmental History of Yogurt)
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historiaSammanfattning : This study turns to what is for many an everyday item – yogurt – as a critical zone observatory, a synergistic, place-based laboratory which aims to integrate heterogenous representations of planetary phenomena as they are registered at a common surface. Yogurt has an impressive cultural endurance largely derived from its prominence in various paradigms of health. LÄS MER
5. Relating the impacts of regenerative farming practices to soil health and carbon sequestration on Gotland, Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentSammanfattning : Land degradation, greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss through agriculture are some of the greatest challenges we are facing today. Fertile and productive soils are the basis of life on this planet and need to be protected and restored to support a growing population and lower negative impacts of climate change. LÄS MER
