  2. 1. Seasonal variation and landscape regulation of dissolved organic carbon concentrations and character in Swedish boreal streams

    Author : Anneli Ågren; Mats Jansson; Irena Creed; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DOC; temporal variation; spatial variation; seasonal variation; forested catchment; wetland catchment; catchment characteristics; DOC characteristics; absorbance-ratio; bioavailability.; Physical geography; Naturgeografi;

    Abstract : The seasonal variation and landscape regulation of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in streams have been studied in two watersheds in the boreal zone. The seasonal variation was found to be highly correlated to variations in runoff. An increase in runoff was always accompanied with an increase in DOC concentration. READ MORE

  4. 2. Chlorine Transport in a Small Catchment

    Author : Teresia Svensson; Gunilla Öberg; Katarina Abrahamsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; catchment; chloride; chlorine; chloroform; organic chlorine; runoff water; soil; VOCls; avrinningsområde; avrinningsvatten; flyktiga klorerade föreningar klor; klorid; kloroform; organiskt klor; mark; Water in nature and society; Vatten i natur och samhälle;

    Abstract : De senaste decenniernas forskning har påvisat att en omfattande bildning och nedbrytning av klororganiska föreningar sker i mark. Bildning av sådana föreningar sker genom att klorid binds in i organiskt material. READ MORE

  5. 3. Spatiotemporal streamflow variability in a boreal landscape : Importance of landscape composition for catchment hydrological functioning

    Author : Reinert Huseby Karlsen; Jan Seibert; Kevin Bishop; Thomas Grabs; Sarah E. Godsey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; streamflow; catchment hydrology; boreal; water balance; spatiotemporal variability; landscape analysis; climate change; recession curve; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Abstract : The understanding of how different parts of a landscape contribute to streamflow by storing and releasing water has long been a central issue in hydrology. Knowledge about what controls streamflow dynamics across landscapes can further our understanding of how catchments store and release water, facilitate predictions for ungauged catchments, and improve the management of water quality and resources.

  6. 4. The role of the hydrological cycle in forest ecosystems : flow path, nutrient cycling and water-carbon interaction

    Author : Yanzi Yan; MERGE: ModElling the Regional and Global Earth system; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; flow path; DOC concentration; groundwater; photosynthesis; Amazon rainforest; catchment geomorphology;

    Abstract : Forest ecosystems, covering over a third of land on the Earth, play a significant role in the global hydrological cycle, and influence soil erosion and climate change. However, the distribution, movements, quality of water, and hydrological processes in forested ecosystems are not well understood yet. READ MORE

  7. 5. Interactions between Fe and organic matter and their impact on As(V) and P(V)

    Author : Anneli Sundman; Per Persson; Thomas Borch; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; XAS; Fe III ; As V ; P V ; natural organic matter; Fe II; III -NOM complexes; Krycklan catchment; Earth Sciences with Specialization Environmental Analysis; geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys;

    Abstract : Iron (Fe) speciation is important for many biogeochemical processes. The high abundance and limited solubility of Fe(III) are responsible for the widespread occurrence of Fe(III) minerals in the environment. READ MORE
