21. Processes controlling carbon fluxes in the soil-vegetation-atmosphere system
Abstract : Increasing emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere have a direct impact on global warming and climate change. The ability of ecosystems to sequester CO2 is therefore of great importance. The Boreal forest contains one of the world’s largest carbon stocks after having acted as a net sink of CO2 for thousands of years. READ MORE

22. Turbulence Structure and Fluxes over Sea
Abstract : Understanding the processes that control air-sea exchange of momentum, sensible heat and moisture (latent heat) is of great importance for atmospheric and oceanic modelling. In the atmosphere, for instance, cyclone intensity and track depends on these processes. READ MORE

23. Model development for estimating carbon dioxide exchange in Nordic forests and peatlands with MODIS time series data
Abstract : The ongoing increase in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations causes an increase in the global mean air temperature. One important moderator of the atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration is the gas exchange between the atmosphere and the biosphere; photosynthesis extracts and respiration releases CO2, resulting in a net exchange.

24. Mechanisms controlling air-sea gas exchange in the Baltic Sea
Abstract : Carbon plays a major role in physical and biogeochemical processes in the atmosphere, the biosphere, and the ocean. CO2 and CH4 are two of the most common carbon-containing compounds in the atmosphere, also recognized as major greenhouse gases. READ MORE

25. The greenhouse gas balance of drained forest landscapes in boreal Sweden
Abstract : Forest drainage has been extensively used to facilitate forest growth in Fennoscandinavia. However, its impact on the ecosystem carbon (C) and greenhouse gas (GHG) balances is limited, particularly in the large area of hemiboreal and boreal Sweden. READ MORE
