  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. Reproductive Biology and Population Genetics of Common Ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.)

    Author : Grazyna Bochenek; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Fraxinus excelsior; delayed fertilization; functional dioecy; gender-related grow difference; inbreeding; tree-rings; non random mating; wind-pollination;

    Abstract : Common Ash, Fraxinus excelsior L. (Oleaceae) is a wind-pollinated, wind-dispersed, deciduous tree, commonly occurring throughout Central and Northern Europe. The thesis addresses several questions concerning reproductive biology and factors influencing the genetic richness of ash stands. READ MORE

  3. 3. Experimental studies of ash transformation processes in thermochemical conversion of P-rich biomass and sludge

    Author : Gustav Häggström; Marcus Öhman; Rainer Backman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ash transformation; phosphorus recovery; sewage sludge; chicken manure; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : The efficient use of resources and sustainable recovery of various materials are important to minimize the anthropogenic impact on the climate and environment. One such resource is the phosphorus present in manure and sewage sludge. READ MORE

    Author : Gustav Häggström; Marcus Öhman; Anders Lagerkvist; Nils Skoglund; Flemming Jappe Frandsen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sewage sludge; agricultural residues; forest residues; ash transformation; potassium; phosphorus; combustion; gasification; phosphorus recovery; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : Efficient use of resources and sustainable recovery of various materials are important to minimize the anthropogenic impact on the climate and environment. One such resource is the phosphorus (P) present in manure and sewage sludge. READ MORE

  5. 5. The Growth of External Ectomycorrhizal Mycelia in the Field in Relation to Host Nutrient Status and Local Addition of Mineral Sources

    Author : David Hagerberg; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Plant ecology; Potassium; Phosphorus; Norway spruce; Picea abies; Whole-tree harvesting; Ectomycorrhizal fungi; Wood ash fertilization; Växtekologi; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : A method based on ingrowth mesh bags was developed to study the production of EMM. These bags were made of nylon mesh with a mesh size of 50 mu-m, which allows colonisation by fungal mycelia but excludes the tree roots. READ MORE
