  2. 1. Structure and function of microbial communities in constructed wetlands - influence of environmental parameters and pesticides on denitrifying bacteria

    Author : Susann Milenkovski; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fungicide; concentration-response curves; nosZ; nirS; nirK; bacterial activity; denitrification; bacterial community composition; herbicide; insecticide;

    Abstract : This thesis addresses the interactions and relationships between natural aquatic bacterial communities, environmental parameters, anthropogenic chemicals and the denitrification pathway in the habitat of agricultural constructed wetlands. The main aim was to gain fundamental knowledge of the drivers behind the processes of the denitrification (i.e. READ MORE

  4. 2. Coupled Hydrological and Microbiological Processes Controlling Denitrification in Constructed Wetlands

    Author : Johan Kjellin; Anders Wörman; Sara Hallin; Barbro Ulén; Björn Klöve; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Constructed wetland; Residence time; water flow modeling; denitrification rate; Tracer experiment; denitrifying bacteria community structure; Water in nature and society; Vatten i natur och samhälle;

    Abstract : Treatment wetlands play an important role in reducing nitrogen content in wastewater and agricultural run-off water. The main removal process is denitrification and the removal efficiency depends on the hydrological and microbiological features of the wetland, especially in terms of water residence times and denitrification rates.

  5. 3. Imprint of management on microbial communities in arable soil : implications for N2O emissions

    Author : Tina Putz; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Arable soils are a major source of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O), emissions of which are directly linked to increased use of N fertilizers. Microbial communities that drive N cycle processes in soil ultimately determine the fate of reactive N inputs and control N2O emissions. READ MORE
