  2. 1. Nitrogen Losses from a Clay-rich Soil used for Cereal Production in south-western Sweden

    Author : Magdalena Wallmann; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; nitrogen; fertilisers; soil; nitrous oxide; nitrogen leaching; 15N; nitrogen use efficiency; nitrogen budget; agriculture; Sweden;

    Abstract : Addition of fertiliser nitrogen (N) in crop production increases yields and protein contents, but all is not taken up by the crop. Instead, some of the N is lost to air and waters, contributing e.g. to climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion, eutrophication and acidification. READ MORE

  4. 2. Investigation of nitrogen recovery from concentrated wastewater

    Author : Aubrey Beckinghausen; Monica Odlare; Eva Thorin; Sebastian Schwede; Ershad Ullah Khan; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nitrogen; ammonium; recovery; circular economy; wastewater; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Nitrogen recovery from wastewater treatment for fertilizers is a research topic that exists at the intersection of multiple topics important to the future of sustainable society. First, nitrogen recovery from wastewater implies a departure from the current methods of nitrogen mitigation, which involve nitrogen removal by conversion of various aqueous species to inert nitrogen gas.

  5. 3. Responses of peatland vegetation to enhanced nitrogen

    Author : Magdalena Wiedermann; Lars Ericson; Juul Limpens; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sphagnum; nitrogen; peatlands; soluble amino acids; gradient study; field experiment; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Human alteration of the global nitrogen (N) cycle has had major impacts on naturally N-limited ecosystems worldwide. Peatlands, dominated by peat mosses, Sphagnum species, represent one such sensitive ecosystem. READ MORE

  6. 4. Nitrogen transformations in wetlands: Effects of water flow patterns

    Author : Torbjörn Davidsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hydrobiology; hydrology; infiltration; subsurface flow; surface flow; wetland; nitrogen; Denitrification; mineralization; nitrification; marine biology; aquatic ecology; limnology; Marinbiologi; limnologi; akvatisk ekologi;

    Abstract : In this thesis, I have studied nitrogen turnover processes in watermeadows. A watermeadow is a wetland where water infiltrates through the soil of a grassland field. READ MORE

  7. 5. The Nitrogen Cycle in Soil - Climate Impact and Methodological Challenges in Natural Ecosystems

    Author : Anna-Karin Björsne; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nitrogen cycle; 15N tracing experiments; gross N transformation rates; climate change; climate treatments; mineralization; nitrification; forest fertilization; nitrous oxide emissions; boreal forest soil; tree species; soil organic matter; C:N ratio;

    Abstract : Nitrogen (N) is a fundamental element for life, and limiting in many terrestrial ecosystems. In non-N-fertilized ecosystems, the N inputs can be low, and the nutrient availability for plants is determined by the internal cycling of N. READ MORE
