1. Time-resolved Structural and Mechanistic Studies of Water Oxidation in Photosystem II : water here, water there, water everywhere
Sammanfattning : Oxygenic photosynthesis is undisputedly one of the most important chemical processes for human life on earth as it not only fills the atmosphere with the oxygen that we need to breathe, but also sustains the accumulation of biomass, which is not only used as nourishment but is also present in almost every aspect of our lives as building material, textiles in clothes and furniture, or even as living decorations to name a few.The photosynthetic water-splitting mechanism is catalyzed by a water:plastoquinone oxido-reductase by the name of photosystem II (PSII), which is embedded in the thylakoid membranes of plants, algae and cyanobacteria.

2. Global and continental perspectives on the sustainability of future agricultural water management
Sammanfattning : Ensuring water and food security in the Anthropocene requires an understanding of combined climate change patterns and land and water management options from local to global scale. In many regions, irrigation from river and groundwater sources is being used at unsustainable rates and climate change will further threaten those water sources. LÄS MER
3. (O)ändligt vatten : En studie om hur förskolebarn som kännare engageras i samhälleliga miljöfrågor
Sammanfattning : Syftet med den här avhandlingen i förskoledidaktik är att tillsammans med förskolebarn på olika sätt utforska aktören vatten för att därigenom undersöka former och metoder för engagemang och medverkan i samhälleliga och naturvetenskapliga miljöfrågor. Mer specifikt är syftet att i ett praktiskt utforskande med förskolebarn och vatten – som aktör och mer-än-mänsklig samarbetspartner – undersöka hur eller med vilka metoder det är möjligt att producera ett engagemang, i vilket förskolebarnet är både kännare och kännande, i vår samtids centrala miljöfrågor.

4. Tracing water transport pathways in the coupled ocean-atmosphere system
Sammanfattning : Water is the most precious substance on the Earth and thus it is important to know how it moves around and is recycled.This knowledge will be useful to formulate educated future strategies about water usage in society and also to understand the near-surface salinity contrasts in the world ocean.

5. Green-Blue Water Potential: : Building water resilience to attain the SDGs on food and poverty in Africa
Sammanfattning : Attaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of eradicating hunger and securing sustainable food for all by 2030, constitutes a major global challenge, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Here, malnourishment, poverty, and population growth are among the highest in the world, and some regions are constantly subject to extreme water variability and scarcity. LÄS MER
