  1. 1. Nitrogen Losses from a Clay-rich Soil used for Cereal Production in south-western Sweden

    Author : Magdalena Wallmann; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; nitrogen; fertilisers; soil; nitrous oxide; nitrogen leaching; 15N; nitrogen use efficiency; nitrogen budget; agriculture; Sweden;

    Abstract : Addition of fertiliser nitrogen (N) in crop production increases yields and protein contents, but all is not taken up by the crop. Instead, some of the N is lost to air and waters, contributing e.g. to climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion, eutrophication and acidification. READ MORE

  2. 2. Assessing reactive nitrogen flows in European agricultural systems

    Author : Rasmus Einarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; food; nitrogen indicator; nitrogen budget; nitrogen; agriculture; nitrogen footprint; uncertainties;

    Abstract : In most ecosystems, nitrogen is a scarce and growth-limiting nutrient. Natural and anthropogenic processes convert unreactive atmospheric dinitrogen (N2) into reactive, bioavailable, nitrogen. READ MORE

  4. 4. On the role of terrestrial ecosystems in a changing Arctic

    Author : Adrian Gustafson; BECC: Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Northern high latitudes; Arctic climate change; climate-vegetation feedbacks; shrubs; shrubification; treeline migration; LPJ-GUESS; RCA-GUESS; nitrogen; carbon; Northern high latitudes; Arctic climate change; climate-vegetation feedbacks; shrubs; shrubification; treeline migration; LPJ-GUESS; RCA-GUESS; Nitrogen; Carbon;

    Abstract : The global temperature rise is proportional to the cumulative amount of CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. This observation is consistent between climate models and historical observations. READ MORE

  5. 5. Screening of oxygen-carrier particles based on iron-, manganese-, copper- and nickel oxides for use in chemical-looping technologies

    Author : Marcus Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Oxygen Carrier; Carbon Dioxide Capture; Chemical-Looping Combustion; Chemical-Looping Reforming; Nickel Oxide; Iron Oxide; Copper Oxide; Manganese Oxide;

    Abstract : Capture and storage of carbon dioxide from combustion will likely be used in the future as a method of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and thus be part of the overall strategy to stabilize the atmospheric levels of CO2. Chemical-looping combustion is a method of combustion where CO2 is inherently separated from the non-condensable components in the flue gas without the need for an energy intensive air separation unit.
