1. Arthropods in Constructed Wetlands : Ecosystem Processes and Riparian Biodiversity
Sammanfattning : Constructed wetlands in the agricultural landscape are known to harbor immense arthropod biodiversity, however, riparian arthropod communities have often been neglected compared to aquatic communities when studying environmental responses. These wetlands are highly productive, but vary in form and composition based on its purpose, which influences the communities that inhabit them. LÄS MER
2. Wastewater treatment in constructed wetlands : Effects of vegetation, hydraulics and data analysis methods
Sammanfattning : Degradation of water resources has become one of the most pressing global concerns currently facing mankind. Constructed Wetlands (CWs) represent a concept to combat deterioration of water resources by acting as buffers between wastewater and receiving water bodies. LÄS MER
3. Nitrogen Removal in Created Wetlands : Considerations – Challenges – Possibilities
Sammanfattning : Created wetlands in agricultural landscapes deliver a multitude of ecosystem services, one of which is the removal of nitrogen (N) from water to reduce eutrophication. Wetland N removal, primarily through denitrification, is influenced by various factors. LÄS MER
4. Constructed Wetlands and Deconstructed Discourses : Greenhouse gas fluxes and discourses on purifying capacities
Sammanfattning : This thesis is a study within the sciences ofconstructed wetlands. It has two sections. Section one is a natural scienrific study ofgas fluxes from construcred wetlands and section two is an analysis ofhow natural sciences describe constructed wetlands. LÄS MER
5. Particulate phosphorus accumulation and net retention in constructed wetlands receiving agricultural runoff : Critical analysis of factors affecting retention estimates
Sammanfattning : Övergödning är ett allvarligt miljöproblem, som bland annat orsakar omfattande blomningar av alger och blågrönbakterier. I söt- och brackvatten är fosfor ofta det mest begränsande näringsämnet för dessa organismer, varför en minskning av fosfortillförseln är nödvändig för att nå förbättringar. LÄS MER
