Acid sulphate soil in Falkenberg on the west coast of Sweden - The first discovery of active acid sulphate soil outside the Baltic Basin
Kling Jonasson, Ida (2020-09-09)Active AS soil has several negative impacts on the environment due to their ability to severely decrease pH-values and mobilize metals bound in the soil. The negative impacts can especially be seen in aquatic environments ... -
Acid sulphate soils and its influence on metal concentrations in adjacent water bodies. - A case study from Halland, SW Sweden
Lindgren, Amanda (2021-03-10)Acid sulphate soils have been referred to as being among the most harmful soils in the world due to their ability to severely decrease the pH of the water, consequently enabling an increased metal load to recipient water ... -
Ash distribution and cavities in Icelandic glaciers, a marker for snow accumulation and radar signal velocity change
Håkansson, Andrea (2020-01-15)Glaciers in the geologically active Iceland has a high scientific as well as touristic value. In this thesis, the two largest glaciers on Iceland have been studied with GPR to find if the method is suitable to use in ... -
ASSESING HISTORICAL (1926-1996) NEAR-SURFACE WIND SPEED VARIABILITY ACROSS SWEDEN
Lönn, Jessika (2022-06-27)Homogenized near-surface wind speed (NSWS) series of 7 stations from rescued observational journals have been analyzed for the 70-years time-period 1926-1996 to investigate past changes and variations across Sweden. ... -
Assessing the controls of the fluoride concentrations in the groundwater of Gothenburg area
Bessong, Crayton Enga (2022-11-04)The human uptake of fluoride can promote healthy teeth in low concentration (<1.5 mg/l) or cause fluorosis when concentration is high (>1.5 mg/l). Drinking water is a major route to which we humans are expose to fluoride ... -
CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE NORWAY SPRUCE TREELINE IN THE CENTRAL SCANDINAVIAN MOUNTAINS Treeline evolution, tree growth and a Blue Intensity summer temperature reconstruction
Karlsson, Fredrik (2022-09-01)In the context of global change, mountain regions have received increased interest in recent times with researchers trying to answer how such regions may be affected by a changing climate. Treeline environments are ... -
Complex REE zonations in metamorphic garnet reflect accessory mineral reactions
Hultin, Niclas (2020-05-29)A garnet from the Sesia Zone, NW Italy, was selected for Major and Rare Earth Element (REE) mapping, using LA-ICP-MS – a procedure previously not conducted at the Department of Earth Science at University of Gothenburg. ... -
Cropland and tree cover mapping using Sentinel-2 data in an agroforestry landscape, Burkina Faso
Masimula, Ntandokazi (2020-06-29)Sentinel-2, with high spatial resolution bands and increased number of spectral channels, has provided increased capabilities for vegetation mapping. Cropland masks within heterogeneous areas such as the Sudano-Sahel ... -
Dynamic streams in a pre-alpine catchment
Sølberg, Andreas (2021-07-12)This thesis aims to investigate the factors controlling the dynamics of temporary streams, i.e., streams that do not flow throughout the year. Temporary stream hydrology is a relative unexplored scientific field. The ... -
Evaluating a method using pXRF for measuring sulphur along Ostlänken
Häägg, Malin (2022-09-09)Ostlänken (The Eastern link) is going to be a new main railway in Sweden, between Södertälje and Linköping. The railroad will go through areas where there could be high sulphide concentration in the rocks, and during the ... -
Evaluating DInSAR for measuring seasonal elevation dynamics at the Vissátvuopmi palsa mire complex in Northern Sweden
Farjami, André (2022-09-09)During recent years the palsa mires of Fennoscandia have reported to be undergoing extensive lateral degradation, and in a warming environment the palsa mires of Sweden among others are threatened to thaw completely by ... -

Wing, Cornelia (2021-06-14)A growing number of cities are experiencing challenges with adapting to stresses originating from a changing climate, such as an increase in air temperature and extreme weather events, where urban greenery has shown ... -
Evaluation of the variation in albedo over snow-covered forest in Northern Sweden and Finland
Hugosson, Klara (2022-05-20)The effect of albedo variability induced by meteorological parameters in snow-covered forested areas at local scale is poorly known. Few meteorological stations measure albedo, even though the effect on albedo caused ... -
Explicit consideration of microbes in quantification of gross N rates based on N-tracing model
Tang, Tsai-wei (2022-01-26)When studying the nitrogen cycle in soils, the principle of 15N isotope dilution and enrichment is commonly used to measure gross N transformation rates. The measuring data of both organic and inorganic nitrogen substrates ... -
