6. Vegetation changes on Swedish mires : Effects of raised temperature and increased nitrogen and sulphur influx
Sammanfattning : Since the start of the industrialisation, the deposition of nitrogen and sulphur and the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased. The main objectives of this study were to find how these changes in climate and deposition can change the vegetation of mire ecosystems and the growth of Sphagnumspecies. LÄS MER
7. Molecular and isotopic characterization of terrestrial organic carbon released to (sub-)Arctic coastal waters
Sammanfattning : Arctic soils store half of the global soil organic carbon (OC) pool and twice as much C as is currently present in the atmosphere. A considerable part of these carbon pools are stored in permafrost. LÄS MER
8. Nitrogen fixation associated with Sphagnum and some other musci
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
9. The ecological significance of sexual reproduction in peat mosses (Sphagnum)
Sammanfattning : Peat mosses (Sphagnum) are widely distributed and are a major component of mire vegetation and peat throughout the boreal and temperate regions. Most boreal Sphagnum species regularly produce sporophytes, but the ecological role of the spore has been questioned. LÄS MER
10. Holocene climate and environmental change in high latitudes as recorded by stable isotopes in peat deposits
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, stable carbon and oxygen isotopes in α-cellulose isolated from Sphagnum fuscum moss remains were used as climate proxies. The main focus was to implement the methods in records from high latitude peatlands in the Northern Hemisphere (west-central Canada and north-eastern European Russia), reconstruct palaeoclimate of the studied regions during the Holocene, and evaluate the compatibility of results with other proxy records, especially tree-ring isotope time-series.
