  1. 1. Below, above and beyond – seagrass ecosystem functions in a connected coastal landscape

    Författare :Theodor Kindeberg; Biodiversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; coastal adaptation; beach wrack; eelgrass; carbon cycling; infauna; seagrass restoration; nature-based solution; biodiversity; eddy covariance; functional traits; Zostera marina;

    Sammanfattning : Seagrass meadows constitute important habitat for a plethora of organisms, rendering them important habitats for conserving biodiversity. Seagrass meadows also modify the environment by attenuating wave and current energy. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Fate of contaminants in Baltic Sea sediment ecosystems : the role of bioturbation

    Författare :Jenny E Hedman; Jonas Gunnarsson; Nils Kautsky; Valery Forbes; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Toxicology; Toxikologi; Marine Ecotoxicology; marin ekotoxikologi;

    Sammanfattning : Aquatic sediments are of major importance for the cycling of environmental pollutants, acting as both sinks and secondary sources of contaminants to the ecosystem. Sediment-living organisms can affect the fate and transport of contaminants through activities like feeding and burrowing, collectively called bioturbation. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Wave energy conversion and the marine environment : Colonization patterns and habitat dynamics

    Författare :Olivia Langhamer; Anders Berglund; Jan Sundberg; Andrew Gill; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; artificial reefs; benthos; biodiversity; biofouling; colonization; environmental impact; fish; shellfish; Mytilus edulis; renewable energy; wave power; Biology; Biologi; Animal Ecology; Zooekologi;

    Sammanfattning : A wave energy park has been established on the Swedish west coast outside Lysekil and pioneer work about its interactions with the marine environment has been conducted. So far, little is known about the effects of offshore energy installations on the marine environment, and this thesis assists in minimizing environmental risks as well as in enhancing potential positive effects on the marine environment.
