  1. 1. Environmental Imprint of Human Food Consumption : Linköping, Sweden 1870 - 2000

    Author : Tina-Simone Schmid Neset; Ulrik Lohm; Susanne Kytzia; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; food consumption; 19th and 20th century; Sweden; material flow analysis; MFA ; substance flow analysis; nitrogen; phosphorus; spatial imprint; lantbruk; miljöaspekter; livsmedelsindustri; livsmedelskonsumtion; markanvändning; Östergötland; 1800-talet; Food science; Livsmedelsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Human food consumption has changed from the late 19th century to the turn of the millennium, and so has the need for resources to sustain this consumption. For the city of Linköping, situated in southeastern Sweden, the environmental imprint of an average inhabitant’s food consumption is studied from the year 1870 to the year 2000. READ MORE

  2. 2. Sveconorwegian metallogenesis in Sweden

    Author : Elisabet Alm; Henrik Stendal; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; geokemi; Geochemistry;

    Abstract : Two main ore types are found in the Sveconorwegian Orogen in southwestern Sweden (Southwest Scandinavian Domain). One of them comprises stratabound Cu mineralizations in the Dal group, located west of lake Vänern. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Spatial Distribution of Precipitation in Scania, Southern Sweden. Observations, model simulations and statistical downscaling

    Author : Maj-Lena Linderson; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; physical geography; Geologi; fysisk geografi; Geology; statistical downscaling; atmospheric circulation; spatial distribution; precipitation; Scania; Sweden;

    Abstract : This thesis focusses on the spatial distribution of precipitation within Scania and on its relation with large-scale climate. The spatial distribution of Scanian precipitation was analysed using a dense rain-gauge network of daily measurements. READ MORE

  4. 4. Acidification trends in Swedish lakes : an assessment of past water chemistry conditions using lake sediments

    Author : Tom Korsman; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Palaeolimnology; acidification history; alkalization; acid deposition; land-use; lake sediments; near infrared spectroscopy; diatoms; multivariate calibration; Sweden;

    Abstract : This thesis presents temporal perspectives of lake acidification in Sweden. Sediment records have been used to study timing, trends and causes of acidification, and two different techniques for assessing past lake-water acidity are presented. READ MORE

  5. 5. Visualization, integration and analysis of multi-element geochemical data

    Author : Katrin Grünfeld; Herbert Henkel; Olle Selinus; Reijo Salminen; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; GIS; interactive visualization; glacial till; biogeochemistry; metals; southeastern Sweden; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : generated large databases containing information on the concentrations of chemical elements in rocks, surface sediments and biogeochemical materials. Regional geochemical data being imprecise, multivariate, spatially auto-correlated and non-normally distributed pose specific problems to the choice of data analysis methods. READ MORE
