1. Diet of Arctic char and brown trout in Northern Sweden : potential effects of burbot and lake area
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : To manage and conserve different fish species, it is important to know what factors affect the presence and performance of the species. Relatively few studies have focused on burbot and how they interact with other species. LÄS MER
2. Photo-chemical reactivity of dissolved organic carbon in subarctic lakes from northern Sweden
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the major absorber of sunlight in most natural waters and a critical component of the carbon cycle in aquatic systems. The photochemical decomposition of DOM can have a significant impact on the landscape-atmosphere carbon exchange. LÄS MER
3. Effekter av klimatförändringar på växtplankton i subarktiska och alpina sjöar
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and AssessmentSammanfattning : The aim of this report was to determine how the climate change affects the ecosystems in alpine and subarctic lakes in Sweden. This was done by analyzing data from environmental monitoring of 14 subarctic and alpine lakes that was part of the national time-series lake monitoring program. LÄS MER
4. Estimated Input of Mercury to Kusawa Lake, Northern Canada, from Snow and Glacial Melt Water
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Unusually high levels of mercury (Hg) have been detected in several northern Canadian lakes, remote from human industrial activities. At Kusawa Lake, a subalpine glacier-fed mountain lake situated in the Yukon Territory (western Canada), measurements of Hg in caught fish are below, but worryingly close to, the Health Canada guideline for safe fish consumption of 0.

5. The suitability of using Landsat TM-5 Images for estimating chromophoric dissolved organic matter in subarctic Lakes
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Recent trends of permafrost thawing in the subarctic are expected to cause increased release of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to inland waters, which might have cascading effects on downstream aquatic ecosystems and release of CO2 to the atmosphere. This study therefore aimed at evaluating the applicability of an empirical band ratio algorithm for estimating chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM; a proxy for DOC) from the easily accessible satellite images Landsat TM-5, to counter the inaccessibility of the region in general.
