1. Nutrient imbalance in Norway spruce
Sammanfattning : The studies presented in my thesis indicate that growing Norway spruce in monoculture does not constitute sustainable forest management in a high N and S deposition environment, such as in southern Sweden. The combination of N-induced high growth rates and leaching due to soil acidification causes soil reserves of nutrients to decrease. LÄS MER
2. Linking plant population dynamics to the local environment and forest succession
Sammanfattning : Linking environmental variation to population dynamics is necessary to understand and predict how the environment influences species abundances and distributions. I used demographic, environmental and trait data of forest herbs to study effects of spatial variation in environmental factors on populations as well as environmental change in terms of effects of forest succession on field layer plants.

3. The Growth of External Ectomycorrhizal Mycelia in the Field in Relation to Host Nutrient Status and Local Addition of Mineral Sources
Sammanfattning : A method based on ingrowth mesh bags was developed to study the production of EMM. These bags were made of nylon mesh with a mesh size of 50 mu-m, which allows colonisation by fungal mycelia but excludes the tree roots. LÄS MER
4. Studies of ash transformation processes in thermochemical co-conversion of phosphorus-rich manure and sludge with biomass residues
Sammanfattning : Efficient use of resources and sustainable recovery of various materials are important to minimize the anthropogenic impact on the climate and environment. One such resource is the phosphorus (P) present in manure and sewage sludge. LÄS MER
5. Nutrient supply to reed canary grass as a bioenergy crop : intercropping with legumes and fertilisation strategies for phosphorus and potassium
Sammanfattning : Growing energy demand and global warming are promoting research into potential new sources of renewable energy. Fossil fuels need to be replaced with sustainable energy sources to decrease emissions of greenhouse gases. Production of bioenergy from herbaceous crops on agricultural land is one alternative.
