16. Electronic properties of complex interfaces and nanostructures
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the structural and electronic properties of graphene, polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules, and other carbon-based materials, when interacting with metallic surfaces, as well as under the influence of different types of perturbations. Density functional theory, incorporating van der Waals interactions, has been employed. LÄS MER
17. Permafrost carbon in a changing Arctic : On periglacial landscape dynamics, organic matter characteristics, and the stability of a globally significant carbon pool
Sammanfattning : Organic matter (OM) in arctic permafrost ground contains about twice as much carbon (C) as is currently present in the atmosphere. Climate change is particularly strong in the Arctic, and could cause a considerable part of the OM in permafrost to thaw out, decompose, and be released as greenhouse gases; further enhancing global warming.

18. Waterborne Carbon in Northern Streams : Controls on dissolved carbon transport across sub-arctic Scandinavia
Sammanfattning : Waterborne carbon (C) forms an active and significant part of the global C cycle, which is important in theArctic where greater temperature increases and variability are anticipated relative to the rest of the globe withpotential implications for the C cycle. Understanding and quantification of the current processes governing themovement of C by connecting terrestrial and marine systems is necessary to better estimate future changes ofwaterborne C.

19. Growth and microstructure of reactive sputter deposited boron nitride : carbon (BN:C) thin films
Sammanfattning : Growth, microstructure and mechanical properties of boron nitride: carbon (BN:C) have been studied in films prepared by reactive r.f. diode sputter deposition as well as by reactive unbalanced d.c. LÄS MER
20. The role of inland waters in the carbon cycle at high latitudes
Sammanfattning : Understanding the drivers of climate change requires knowledge about the global carbon (C) cycle. Although inland waters play an important role in the C cycle by emitting and burying C, streams and lakes are in general overlooked in bottom-up approached C budgets. LÄS MER
