  3. 2. Ecological risk assessment of pesticide use in rice farming in the Mekong Delta , Vietnam

    Magister-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Bubaraye Ohiosimuan Dirikumo; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Pesticides; Ecological Risk Assessment ERA ; rice farming; Mekong Delta; PRIMET Model; Exposure Toxicity Ratio ETR ; species sensitivity distribution SSD ; predicted environmental concentrations PECs ;

    Sammanfattning : Pesticide use in rice farming is a common practice in the Mekong Delta and poses ecological risks to aquatic organisms, the environment, and human health. This study focused on the ecological risk assessment of pesticide use in rice farming using the PRIMET model as a decision support tool to evaluate the risks of pesticide exposure, ecotoxicity, and risk characterization, as well as employing the species sensitivity distribution (SSD) assessment model to calculate the potentially affected fraction (PAF) of species based on the computed predicted environmental concentrations (PECs) from PRIMET.

  4. 3. Detecting Pollutants Using Vibrations : Laser Doppler Vibrometry as a Non-Invasive Soil Organism Health Monitoring Method

    Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Kristoffer Wilson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Vibrometer; Biotremology; Imidacloprid; Ants;

    Sammanfattning : Due to a lack of in-situ methods capable of detecting sub-lethal effects of pollutants on soil organisms, many polluted environments are not identified prior to pollution-induced changes in the soil fauna. Therefore, there is a need to develop new non-invasive methods to measure the health of soil organisms. LÄS MER

  5. 4. EKO: logiskt eller ologiskt? : En litteraturstudie om hälsoeffekter i relation till ekologiska och konventionella livsmedel med fokus på foster, barn- och unga

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Författare :Jéssika Kendsy Herold Svärd; Magdalena Mashkovska; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Children and young people; Health effects; Organic food; Conventional food; Pesticides; Barn- och unga; Hälsoeffekter; Ekologiska livsmedel; Konventionella livsmedel; Bekämpningsmede;

    Sammanfattning : Introduktion: En av de största farhågorna i förhållande till konventionella livsmedel är användningen av bekämpningsmedel. Forskning visar att höga doser av bekämpningsmedel har ett samband med förekomst av hälsoeffekter som fosterskador, allergier, infektioner, havandeskapsförgiftning, metabola syndrom, högt BMI med mera.

  7. 5. The Impact of The Neonicotinoid Pesticide Ban on Crime and Early Education in Agricultural Areas of Sweden

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Författare :Sevrin Williams; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Neonicotinoids; Agricultural Policy; Human Capital; Crime; Education;

    Sammanfattning : In 2013, the European Union banned the use of neonicotinoid pesticides on bee-attractive plants sown between January and June. Neonicotinoids were a popularly used pesticide because pests were not resistant against it. LÄS MER
