21. Digital wet areas mapping
Sammanfattning : Wet soil in forested landscapes of the boreal zone is often associated with large open wetlands or peatlands, but it may also be hidden beneath closed forest canopies on drained wetlands or wet strips beside streams known as riparian zones. Since these wet areas are shrouded by canopy they have traditionally been difficult to map from aerial photographs. LÄS MER
22. Land use effects on greenhouse gas emissions from boreal inland waters
Sammanfattning : Anthropogenic activities perturb the global carbon and nitrogen cycle with large implications for the earth’s climate. Land use activities deliver excess carbon and nitrogen to aquatic ecosystems. In the boreal biome, this is mainly due to forestry and atmospheric deposition. LÄS MER
23. Iron isotopes in aquatic systems
Sammanfattning : The cycling of iron (Fe) is a key component for understanding water quality and biogeochemical processes. It serves as mediator during biotic and abiotic processes, as electron acceptor during the degradation of organic matter, as surface for trace element and organic matter adsorption, and is necessary for primary production processes.

24. Sustainable Water Quality Monitoring for Developing Countries in the Context of Mining : Monitoring systems and modelling
Sammanfattning : Mining, seen as a source of revenue in most developing countries, threatens seriously the environment. Mining impacts the water quality and one of the main problems of mining is acid mine drainage. Low pH and high concentration of heavy metals characterize acid mine drainage. LÄS MER
