  2. 6. Stable bromine isotopic composition of methyl bromide : Method development and applications

    Author : Axel Horst; Örjan Gustafsson; Detlef Schulz-Bull; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The isotopic composition of ozone depleting methyl halides may provide valuable information on the sources and sinks of these compounds. However, so far mostly stable carbon isotope analysis of methyl chloride and methyl bromide (CH3Br) has been attempted. READ MORE

  4. 7. Stable chlorine isotope analysis of chlorinated acetic acids

    Author : Milena Edith Ivansson; Henry Holmstrand; Örjan Gustafsson; Teresia Svensson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stable chlorine isotope analysis; chlorinated acetic acids; compound-specific isotope analysis;

    Abstract : Chlorinated acetic acids (CAAs) constitute a group of polar organic compounds that are ubiquitous in the environment. Their environmental occurrence has been extensively studied but their sources are still not well constrained. READ MORE

  5. 8. An evaluation of the distributions of polychlorinated biphenyls and organic matter in coastal sediments

    Author : Anders Jönsson; Örjan Gustafsson; Detlef Schulz-Bull; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polychlorinated biphenyls PCBs ; organic carbon; sediment; stable carbon isotopes; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to improve the understanding of what processes and mechanism affects the distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organic carbon in coastal sediments. Because of the strong association of hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) such as PCBs with organic matter in the aquatic environment, these two entities are naturally linked. READ MORE

  6. 9. Compositional clues to sources and sinks of terrestrial organic matter transported to the Eurasian Arctic shelf

    Author : Emma Karlsson; Örjan Gustafsson; Volker Brüchert; Thorsten Dittmar; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organic carbon; degradation; microcosm; incubation; terrestrial biomarkers; acyl lipids; lignin phenols; radiocarbon; Eurasian Arctic shelf; East Siberian Sea; Laptev Sea; Lena River; colloidal matter; particulate matter; sedimentary matter; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The amount of organic carbon (OC) present in Siberian Arctic permafrost soils is estimated at twice the amount of carbon currently in the atmosphere. The shelf seas of the Arctic Ocean receive large amounts of this terrestrial OC from Eurasian Arctic rivers and from coastal erosion. READ MORE

  7. 10. Organic geochemical investigation of sources, transport and fate of terrestrial organic matter in the southeast Laptev Sea

    Author : Emma Karlsson; Örjan Gustafsson; Volker Brüchert; Sebastian Sobek; Rienk Smittenberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biogeochemistry; biogeokemi; Marine Geoscience; marin geovetenskap; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Permafrost carbon stores have been suggested to react to warming trends with increased terrestrial loading to its coastal waters. Presently, the warming has been seen to be especially high in the East Siberian Arctic and the fate of the major release of terrestrial matter to these coasts is yet to be detailed. READ MORE
