1. 1. Experimental, petrological and geochemical investigations of ikaite (CaCO3·6H2O) formation in marine environments

   Författare :Elin Tollefsen; Alasdair Skelton; Carl-Magnus Mörth; Erik Sturkell; Andrew Putnis; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ikaite; petrology; experiment; geochemistry; marine environments; pseudomorphs; calcium carbonate; Ikka Fjord; glendonite; nepheline; siderite; paleotemperature; carbonatite; Geology; geologi;

   Sammanfattning : Carbonates are a group of minerals that play an essential role in several processes on planet Earth, for example in the global carbon cycle and as a product of biomineralisation. Calcite (CaCO3) is by far the most common mineral in the carbonate group, and the stable form of carbonate at Earth surface conditions. LÄS MER

3. 2. Between roving and stewarding marine environments : Practices and development of Swedish coastal fisheries in the Baltic Sea

   Författare :Emma Björkvik; Wijnand Boonstra; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stewardship; fishing practices; sustainable development; coastal fisheries; Baltic Sea; fishers’ behavior; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

   Sammanfattning : Whether and how capture fisheries can increase catches and be sustainable at the same time i sa pertinent question for fisheries in the Global North. To ensure sustainable development of these fisheries, it is essential for fisheries management to pay attention to fishers’ behavior. LÄS MER

4. 3. Corrosion-induced release of zinc and copper in marine environments

   Författare :Jan Sandberg; Inger Odnevall Wallinder; Dan Persason; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; copper; zinc; marine environment; runoff rate; atmospheric corrosion; chloride deposition; anti-fouling paints; chemical speciation; bioavailability; cupric ions; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : This licentiate study was initiated by copper, zinc and galvanized steel producers in Europe, who felt a need to assess runoff rates of copper and zinc from the pure metals and commercial products at marine exposure conditions. Their motive was the increasing concern in various European countries and the on-going risk assessments of copper and zinc within the European commission. LÄS MER

5. 4. Element transport in marine coastal ecosystems – modelling general and element-specific mechanisms

   Författare :Lena Konovalenko; Clare Bradshaw; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Modelling; bioaccumulation; concentration ratio; radionuclides; marine foodweb.; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

   Sammanfattning : Understanding the behaviour of naturally-occurring and anthropogenically-derived radionuclides (isotopes) in the marine environment is important, because there is a need for their effective utilization either as in situ tracers or for industry, medical applications, the planning of waste-disposal facilities, and estimations of human and animal health risks. Radionuclides generally have the same chemical properties as their stable element analogues and thus show similar environmental behaviour and cycling to their stable counterparts. LÄS MER

7. 5. Development of voyage optimization algorithms for sustainable shipping and their impact to ship design

   Författare :Helong Wang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Expected time of arrival ETA ; Ship safety; Sustainable shipping; Metocean forecast; Voyage optimization algorithms.; Dijkstra’s algorithm; Genetic algorithm; Energy efficiency;

   Sammanfattning : The environmental impacts from shipping and the societal challenges of human and property losses caused by ship accidents are pressuring the shipping industry to improve its energy efficiency and enhance ship safety. Voyage optimization is such an effective measure that has been widely adopted in today’s shipping market. LÄS MER
