16. High-resolution mapping and spatial variability of soil organic carbon storage in permafrost environments
Sammanfattning : Large amounts of carbon are stored in soils of the northern circumpolar permafrost region. High-resolution mapping of this soil organic carbon (SOC) is important to better understand and predict local to global scale carbon dynamics. LÄS MER
17. Remediation of mercury polluted soil
Sammanfattning : Mercury in contaminated soil constitutes a wide spectrum of species with highly different properties due to the chemical complexity of the element. Assessments of risk, ecological effects and removal potential require process and mobility studies. LÄS MER
18. Relations between soil organic carbon, soil structure and physical processes in an agricultural topsoil : The role of soil mineral constituents
Sammanfattning : A better understanding of the interactions between soil organic carbon (SOC) and mineral constituents (e.g. clay and reactive oxide phases) and their consequences for soil structure and physical processes is important for assessing the potential for, and benefits of, carbon sequestration in arable soils. LÄS MER
19. Soil tillage influences on soil mineral nitrogen and nitrate leaching in Swedish arable soils
Sammanfattning : Leaching of nitrogen (N) is an unwanted effect of agriculture practices which contributes to eutrophication of surface waters. This thesis examined how soil tillage practices affect leaching losses of N from arable fields. LÄS MER
20. Effects of structure liming on clay soil
Sammanfattning : Structure lime, comprising 80-85% ground limestone (CaCO3) and 15-20% slaked lime (Ca(OH)2), is applied to clay soils to counteract losses of particulate phosphorus (PP) through aggregate stabilisation. This thesis evaluated the effect of structure lime on soil aggregate stability, aggregate size distribution, draught requirement in tillage and crop yield. LÄS MER
