  1. 41. Method development for isotope analysis of trace and ultra-trace elements in environmental matrices

    Författare :Nicola Pallavicini; Ilia Rodushkin; Johan Ingri; Frank Vanhaecke; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing load of toxic elements entering the ecosystems, as a consequence of anthropogenic processes, has grown public awareness in the last decades, resulting in a great number of studies focusing on pollution sources, transport, distribution, interactions with living organisms and remediation. Physical/chemical processes that drive the uptake, assimilation, compartmentation and translocation of heavy metals in biota has received a great deal of attention recently, since elemental concentrations and isotopic composition in biological matrices can be used as  probes of both natural and anthropogenic sources.

  3. 42. Leaf Area Index of Scandinavian Forests Methods Using in situ and Remotely Sensed Data

    Författare :Helena Eriksson; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geologi; fysisk geografi; Physical geography; geomorphology; Geology; physical geography; leaf aggregation; specific leaf area SLA .; Växtekologi; Plant ecology; Leaf area index LAI ; canopy reflectance models; spectral vegetation indices; remote sensing; pedology; cartography; climatology; Fysisk geografi; geomorfologi; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with methods of obtaining the leaf area index (LAI) from remotely sensed satellite data. Initially, in situ estimation methods were investigated, since the accuracy of the remotely sensed estimates is dependent on the quality of these estimates. LÄS MER

  4. 43. Trace metal speciation in fresh and brackish waters using ultrafiltration, DGT and transplanted aquatic moss

    Författare :Jerry Forsberg; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Sammanfattning : Distribution, mobility, and toxicity of metals in natural waters are strongly related to their aqueous speciation. To understand the behaviour of an aqueous element and the transformation between chemical species, there is a need for reliable methods that enable measurements of specific fractions of metals.

  5. 44. Sulphide oxidation, oxygen diffusion and metal mobility in sulphide-bearing mine tailings in Northern Sweden

    Författare :Lena Alakangas; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Sammanfattning : Large quantities of sulphide-bearing mining wastes produced from ore processing are deposited throughout the world. Sulphide oxidation in the wastes may release acidic water with high concentrations of metals to the environment. Remediation strategies are usually site specific, since the physical and chemical properties of the wastes vary. LÄS MER

  7. 45. Isotope analysis of trace and ultra-trace elements in environmental matrices

    Författare :Nicola Pallavicini; Per Andersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Sammanfattning : High precision isotope ratio measurements have found increasing application in various branches of science, from classical isotope geochronology to complex multi-tracer experiments in environmental studies. Progress in analytical technologies in recent years has allowed higher quality data to be obtained through mass spectrometry. LÄS MER
