  1. 1. Predictions Within and Across Aquatic Systems using Statistical Methods and Models

    Författare :Peter H. Dimberg; Roger Herbert; Andreas C. Bryhn; Gesa Weyhenmeyer; Mikael Malmaeus; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lake; Water quality; Chlorophyll-a; Total phosphorus; Seasonality; Morphometry; Regression model; Probability; Markov chain; Genetic programming; Temporal-trend; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys;

    Sammanfattning : Aquatic ecosystems are an essential source for life and, in many regions, are exploited to a degree which deteriorates their ecological status. Today, more than 50 % of the European lakes suffer from an ecological status which is unsatisfactory. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Microplastic Mitigation in Urban Stormwater : Assessing Horizontal-Flow Filters of Bark, Biochar and Sand as Remediation Strategies

    Författare :Gabriella Rullander; Sahar S. Dalahmeh; Roger Herbert; Jes Vollertsen; Claudia Lorenz; Ann-Margret Strömvall; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Decentralized water treatment; Filtration; Filter systems; Pollution control; Porous media; Stormwater management; Sustainable solutions; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Urban stormwater has been suggested as a significant vector through which microplastics (MPs) reach aquatic environments. Currently, only a small fraction of stormwater in Sweden undergoes any form of treatment. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Environmental impact of alum shale mining in Kvarntorp, Närke, Sweden

    Författare :Kristina Åhlgren; Mattias Bäckström; Stefan Karlsson; Roger Herbert; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; alum shale; black shale; oil shale; Kvarntorp; uranium; surface water; groundwater; open pits;

    Sammanfattning : Due to scarcity of imported liquid fuel during World War II, alum shale was mined for oil production in the Kvarntorp area 1942-1966. The shale contains both organic matter (kerogen) and elevated concentrations of trace elements such as molybdenum, nickel, uranium and vanadium. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Quantification of mineral weathering rates in sulfidic mine tailings under water-saturated conditions

    Författare :Magdalena Gleisner; Docent Roger Herbert; Professor Emeritus Rolf Hallberg; Dr. Magnus Land; Professor Patrick Crill; Mats Åström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mine tailings; pyrite; sulfides; weathering; oxygen availability; Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Tailings are a fine-grained waste product produced during the metal recovery process. Tailings consist mostly of different silicates but also sulfides (e.g. pyrite), since 100 % metal recovery is not possible. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Environmental levels of thallium : influence of redox properties and anthropogenic sources

    Författare :Ulrika Karlsson; Stefan Karlsson; Anders Düker; Roger Herbert; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thallium; Tl I ; Tl III ; separation; ion chromatography; fresh water; sediment; mine waste; fly ash; redistribution; ICP-MS; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Thallium is a highly toxic element that humans are exposed to mainly by consumption of drinking water and vegetables grown in soil with high thallium content but also through inhalation of particles in the air. Thallium is also present in fossil fuels, alloys, and in electronic utilities. LÄS MER
