  1. 1. Non-CO2 greenhouse gases, uncertainty and land-use competition

    Author : Daniel Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kyoto protocol; energy system; integrated assessment; environmental economics; land use change; bioenergy; climate change; greenhouse gases; GWP;

    Abstract : Over the past 250 years the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have increased drastically. It is close to scientific consensus that these changes have increased the temperature of the earth. READ MORE

  3. 3. Forests and Greenhouse gases. Fluxes of CO2, CH4 and N2O from drained forests on organic soils

    Author : Karin von Arnold; Leif Klemedtsson; Mats Nilsson; Björn Hånell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Greenhouse gases; GHG; fluxes of CO2; CH4; drained forests; organic soils; Skogsbotanik; miljöaspekter; växthusgaser; Water in nature and society; Vatten i natur och samhälle;

    Abstract : One of the largest environmental threats believed to be facing us today is global warming due to the accumulation of green house gases (GHG). The concentrations of GHG in the atmosphere are a result of the net strength of different sinks and sources. READ MORE

  4. 4. Greenhouse gas fluxes between drained forested peatlands and the atmosphere - influence of nutrient status and wood ash fertilization

    Author : Maria Ernfors; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; greenhouse gases; peatlands wood; ash; nutrient status;

    Abstract : The management of peatlands for wood production involves drainage and, sometimes, fertilization with, for example, wood ash. The effects of these measures on greenhouse gas fluxes, in relation to the ... READ MORE

  5. 5. Effects of forest management on greenhouse gas fluxes in a boreal forest

    Author : Patrik Vestin; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : Forest management; Greenhouse gas fluxes; Clear-cutting; Thinning; Stump harvesting; Selective cutting; Eddy-covariance; Flux-gradient; Greenhouse gas budgets; CO2; CH4; N2O;

    Abstract : Forest ecosystems cover 31% of the terrestrial land area and store large amounts of carbon in biomass and in soils. The 2015 Paris Agreement recognizes the importance of sinks and reservoirs of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in forests and the importance of enhancing them through sustainable forest management policies.
