  1. 1. How do rainfall patterns change microbial induced carbon dynamics in soil?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik

    Författare :Maria João Silva; [2023]
    Nyckelord :drying and rewetting; bacterial growth; fungal growth; annual crops; perennial crops; soil depth; climate change; biotechnology; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change is changing the precipitation patterns around the globe, leading to more extreme weather events like severe drought and heavy rainfalls. These events are intrinsically related to soil moisture fluctuations, which strongly modulates carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Metagenomic insights into AMR distributions in freshwaters and soils

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Jay Håkansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :AMR; metagenomics; freshwater; microbial ecology; soil; antimicrobial resistance;

    Sammanfattning : 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. 3. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Franklin Lee Harris; [2023]
    Nyckelord :microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Explicit consideration of microbes in quantification of gross N rates based on N-tracing model

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Tsai-wei Tang; [2022-01-26]
    Nyckelord :N-tracing model; microbial biomass; gross N quantification; organic N; mineralization; immobilization;

    Sammanfattning : When studying the nitrogen cycle in soils, the principle of 15N isotope dilution and enrichment is commonly used to measure gross N transformation rates. The measuring data of both organic and inorganic nitrogen substrates are therefore be analysed by Ntrace model. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Microbial ecosystem analysis of biochar-enriched soil in Kenya using microfluidic soil models

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Författare :Erik Karlsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Soil microbial ecosystem analysis; Microbe abundance; Microbe foraging; Biochar; Agriculture; Microfluidics; In-situ visualization; Kenya; SoilChip; Soil model; Minor Field Study; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Healthy soil is rich in diverse microbial life, and a healthy microbial ecosystem is crucial for any well-functioning agriculture. Soil microbes are essential for organic decomposition and nutrient recycling in the soil, which make nutrients available for agricultural crops. LÄS MER
