  1. 1. Trädplantering i den hårdgjorda staden : utmaningar och lösningsalternativ

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Författare :Ingela Carlgren; [2024]
    Nyckelord :gatuträd; urbana träd; trädplantering; gatumiljö; urban jord; kompaktering; skelettjord; makadamsubstrat; rotceller; suspended pavement;

    Sammanfattning : Träd är viktiga delar av våra städer. De bidrar med många ekosystemtjänster, som klimatreglering, dagvattenhantering och positiva hälsoeffekter. De är också viktiga identitetsskapande element. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Greenhouse gas emissions from peat soil thawing in spring : a comparison between fertilized and unfertilized soil

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

    Författare :Fanny Otterlin Karlsson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :agricultural soil; carbon dioxide; freeze-thaw cycles; nitrous oxide; soil temperature; water content;

    Sammanfattning : Peat soils drained for agriculture and forestry contribute to a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions. Nitrous oxide is a greenhouse gas with high warming potential and agriculture in general accounts for about 70 % of nitrous oxide emissions. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Vibrational signals as indicators of soil fauna health? : A novel approach to environmental monitoring of ants

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

    Författare :Joel Fransson Forsberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Vibrations; Formica ants; Vibrometer; Vibrational signals; Imidacloprid; Before-After-Control-Impact;

    Sammanfattning : Soil fauna provides processes of crucial importance for ecosystem functions, but our ability to observe their actions often depend on destructive methods where the integrity of the studied environment (the soil) is compromised. In this study, I develop and test a new generation of environmental monitoring tools that utilize vibrations made by soil macrofauna to inform about their performance and health. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The potential use of black soldier fly larvae residue as a fertilizer

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Agricultural Biosystems and Techology

    Författare :An-Marthe Ingelaere; [2023]
    Nyckelord :organic waste; fertilizer; black soldier fly; residue; physico-chemical characteristics; sub-Saharan Africa; socio-economic constraints;

    Sammanfattning : In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the primary constraint of agriculture productivity has consistently been ascribed to soil fertility. A common approach to improve soil fertility is the use of fertilizers, both organic and inorganic. Though recently interest is increasing in the use of newer alternatives like biostimulants. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Quality of Spent Mushroom Compost Amended with Organic Material- Effect on Nutrient Content and Plant Growth

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

    Författare :Rasha Kamel; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Apple Waste; Wood Chips; Microbial Content; pH; Pseudomonas; General Bacterial Flora; General Fungal Flora; Electrical Conductivity; Nutrient Content; Bulk Density; Porosity; Water Holding Capacity;

    Sammanfattning : Peat, as a non-renewable growing media, poses environmental concerns due to extraction and decomposition processes, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions. Alternatives growing media with potential to replace or reduce the use of peat are of great need. LÄS MER
