  1. 1. Environmental management systems : policy implementation and environmental effects

    University dissertation from Luleå : Luleå tekniska universitet

    Author : Thomas Zobel; Luleå tekniska universitet.; Luleå University of Technology.; [2005]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Organisationers miljöarbete drivs mindre och mindre av lagkrav och mer och mer av deras övergripande strategi. För att kunna vinna marknadsfördelar, systematiskt uppfylla lagkrav och utveckla mer effektiva processer, väljer ett ökande antal organisationer att införa miljöledningssystem (MLS). READ MORE

  2. 2. Innovation Processes and Environmental Planning : Science and Technology Policies in a Regional Context

    University dissertation from Luleå : Luleå tekniska universitet

    Author : Katarina Larsen; KTH.; [2005]
    Keywords : TEKNIKVETENSKAP; TECHNOLOGY; Innovation; environmental planning; science and technology parks; strategic environmental research; environmental procurement; futures studies;

    Abstract : The understanding of environmental change and how it is influenced by innovation processes and advances in science and technology is multifaceted given the inherent uncertainty of the pace and direction of technology change, but also given the limits to anticipate future environmental effects of new technology.The doctoral thesis is organised in two parts.

  3. 3. Environmental Assessment of Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell Systems. Consequences of an Evolutionary Perspective on Technology Development

    University dissertation from Chalmers University of Technology

    Author : Magnus Karlström; Chalmers tekniska högskola.; Chalmers University of Technology.; Chalmers tekniska högskola.; Chalmers University of Technology.; [2004]
    Keywords : TEKNIKVETENSKAP; TECHNOLOGY; Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell; life cycle assessment; environmental assessment; hydrogen; technology assessment; LCA; PEMFC;

    Abstract : Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell Systems are in the early phase of the their development. Many assume that fuel cells and hydrogen always will be benign for the environment in any design and development phase. However, the magnitude of the different benefits could be influenced by strategic choices. READ MORE

  4. 4. Biomarkers in perch (Perca fluviatilis) used in environmental monitoring of the Stockholm recipient and background areas in the Baltic Sea

    University dissertation from Stockholm : Institutionen för tillämpad miljövetenskap (ITM)

    Author : Tomas Hansson; Stockholms universitet.; [2008]
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biomarker; DDT; environmental monitoring; EROD; fish; GSI; nanoinjection; PAH; PCB; Perca fluviatilis; perch; reproduction; tillämpad miljövetenskap; Applied Environmental Science;

    Abstract : This thesis reports the results of biomarker measurements in three environmental monitoring projects. In the first project, which was part of the Swedish national environmental monitoring, biomarkers were measured annually in female perch (Perca fluviatilis) in two background areas in the Baltic Sea during 1988–2000, resulting in a unique 13-year series of measurements.

  5. 5. Organic Phosphorus Compounds in Aquatic Sediments : Analysis, Abundance and Effects

    University dissertation from Uppsala : Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis

    Author : Joakim Ahlgren; Uppsala universitet.; [2006]
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Environmental chemistry; Organic phosphorus; aquatic sediment; eutrophication; NMR; internal loading; sample preparation; extraction; degradation; Miljökemi;

    Abstract : Phosphorus (P) is often the limiting nutrient in lacustrine and brackish eco-systems, and enhanced input of P into an aquatic system might therefore negatively impact the environment. Because modern waste water manage-ment have reduced external P input to surface waters, internal P loading from the sediment has become one of the main P sources to aquatic ecosys-tems, in which relatively unknown organic P compounds seem to be more active in P recycling than previously thought.
