1. Food Quality for Zooplankton in Humic Lakes
Sammanfattning : Food quality affects growth, reproduction and community structure of zooplankton, and has implications for nutrient cycling and the transfer of energy and matter in aquatic food chains. While the issue of food quality in clear water lakes has received great recent attention, studies on food quality for zooplankton in humic lakes are scarce. LÄS MER
2. Toxicity of Inorganic Aluminium in Humic Streams
Sammanfattning : Aluminium (Al) has been recognised as a main toxic factor alongside pH in acidified water ecosystems. The toxic effect of Al has been attributed to inorganic Al (Ali), though there are few in situ studies in ambient humic waters which are the focus of this thesis. LÄS MER
3. Viral Loop Dynamics in Temperate and Polar Freshwaters
Sammanfattning : All cellular organisms in aquatic environments are susceptible to virus attack. Viruses are the smallest but most abundant biological entities in freshwaters. This thesis describes interactions between viruses and bacteria in temperate and polar freshwaters with particular emphasis on Arctic and Antarctic aquatic systems. LÄS MER
4. Non-cyanobacterial nitrogen fixation insights in humic freshwater lakes and ponds
Sammanfattning : The biological basis of nitrogen fixation beyond the canonical role of Cyanobacteria is not well understood in freshwater ecosystems. To address this gap in knowledge, the main objective of this thesis is to study non-cyanobacterial nitrogen fixation in freshwater lakes and ponds. LÄS MER
5. Effects of dissolved humic matter on phytoplankton
Sammanfattning : Water colour is currently increasing in thousands of lakes in the northern hemisphere due to an increased input of terrestrial dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and more specifically coloured disscolved humic matter (DHM). I studied how water colour affects the light climate in the epilimnion and, as a consequence, phytoplankton biomass, species composition and production in lakes in southern Sweden. LÄS MER
