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. Effekter av markstruktur på tryckutbredning och packningsbenägenhet i åkermark : en jämförande fältstudie mellan konventionellt jordbearbetad åkermark och permanent bevuxen åkermark
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentSammanfattning : Att gårdar blir större är en tydlig trend inom det svenska lantbruket. Med det följer även en större efterfrågan på större maskiner och redskap. Denna rationalisering medför en ökad risk för att åkermarken blir kraftigt packad och därigenom skadad, vilket på sikt kan leda till försämrad bördighet. LÄS MER
3. Ekosystemtjänster i gräsmarker
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : The interest in the importance of grasslands in Europe has been addressed by the EU project SUPER-G, whose objective is to increase the productivity of grasslands while also exploring how these lands contribute to other types of ecosystem services, i.e. various benefits that humans receives from nature.

4. How former arable fields with permanent grazing differ from managed semi-natural pastures in Sweden
Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologiSammanfattning : New farming needs and innovations have, over time, led to changes in land use. Arable fields have been turned into pastures and semi-natural pastures into arable fields. LÄS MER
5. Effects of land use on wetland carbon storage and ecosystem services in the tropics : A first estimation investing rural wetlands in central and eastern Uganda
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapSammanfattning : Wetlands provide important ecosystem services (ES) by storing large amounts of organic carbon (OC) and being of high biological, cultural, and economical value. Uganda is covered by vast wetland areas but has with a booming population rapidly been decreasing due to pressure on lands. LÄS MER
