2. 1. Leaf- to field-level compound effects of warm and dry conditions on crops and potential mitigating strategies

   Author : Xiangyu Luan; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Ongoing climate change has been threatening global food security. Under climate change, increasing risk of hot and dry conditions (termed compound events) is projected in many agricultural regions. Compound events cause detrimental effects on crops, yet their effects have rarely been quantified based on modeling approach. READ MORE

4. 2. Conceptualizing catchment processes affecting stream chemistry : from basic understanding to practical applications

   Author : Tejshree Tiwari; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : Maintaining good surface water quality is recognized as one of the greatest challenges for future generations. In northern-latitudes, it is predicted that aquatic ecosystems may experience a large climatic change. READ MORE

5. 3. Forest-savanna transitions: Understanding adaptation and resilience of the tropical forest ecosystems using remote sensing

   Author : Chandrakant Singh; Ingo Fetzer; Lan Wang-Erlandsson; Ruud van der Ent; Stefano Manzoni; Udita Sanga; Vivian Ribeiro; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap; Ecology and Evolution; ekologi och evolution; Hydrology; hydrologi;

   Abstract : Climate and deforestation-induced changes in precipitation drive tropical forest-savanna transitions. However, precipitation alone provides a superficial understanding of the underlying mechanism behind these transitions. This is because our knowledge of how vegetation responds to changes in hydroclimate is fragmented. READ MORE

6. 4. The influence of multiscale hyporheic flow on solute transport : Implications for stream restoration enhancing nitrogen removal

   Author : Ida Morén; Anders Wörman; Joakim Riml; Roy Haggerty; KTH; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hyporheic exchange flow; Hydrological modeling; Solute transport; Stream restoration; Nitrogen; Power spectral analysis; Hydraulic and Hydrologic Engineering; Hydraulik och teknisk hydrologi;

   Abstract : Stream water that flows into and out of streambeds is called hyporheic exchange flow (HEF).It continuously interacts with groundwater and thereby affect the water quality of local streamreaches as well as downstream recipients by providing an environment where solutes andenergy can be retained and degraded.

7. 5. Risk-based management of the cost to society from infiltration and inflow to wastewater systems

   Author : Anna Ohlin Saletti; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sewer system; infiltration and inflow I I ; uncertainty; wastewater; risk management; decision support;

   Abstract : The wastewater system is an important part of our infrastructure as it protects public health and the environment. Well-functioning maintenance is essential to sustain the functionality of the system. READ MORE
