Abstract:

Bryophytes form an important component of northern vegetation communities. Mosses efficiently capture aerially deposited nutrients, restricting nutrient availability to the soil. Given that key ecosystem processes of northern ecosystems are nutrient-limited, understanding nutrient cycling of the moss layer is key to understanding ecosystem nutrient and C cycling in these systems. However, the role of the moss layer in regulating ecosystem-scale nutrient and C cycling, while potentially significant, is largely unknown. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the effect of the relative availabi

Abstract:

In the context of nutrient cycling in soil, plant-mediated mineralisation of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) is poorly understood. The broad focus of this thesis was to investigate the potential importance of plant-mediated mineralisation (i.e.priming) on C and N mineralisation in soils with contrasting crop productivities. The studies focus on two soils, which had similar chemical and physical properties but contrasting plant productivities relating to their N supply capacity. These soils were used to investigate the potential importance of priming processes in contributing to the contrasting cap

Abstract:

The effects of straw burning and drying-rewetting cycles on nutrient availability were studied in an attempt to assess the practical importance of the yearly precropping practice by farmers of burning off excess crop residues and of the seasonal climate of North-East Nigeria. Changes in soil properties resulting from heating three soils up to 700°C and from field burning of straw on three soils were determined. Heating to 250° did not affect soil texture but increased exchangeable NH<sub>4<sup>+</sub></sup>-N, available P, Fe, Mn and phosphate adsorption. A peak of NH<sub>4<sup>+</sub></sup>-N

The release of nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) via land clearing, application of fertilisers, discharge of human waste and combustion of fossil fuels, is one of the most harmful effects of anthropogenic stresses on aquatic environments.

Small estuaries such as the oligotrophic East Kleinemonde where the research was mostly conducted are sensitive to nutrient enrichment from septic tanks, stormwater runoff and fertiliser application to lawns in close proximity to the estuary.

Abstract:

For decades the Baltic Sea has been subject to eutrophication due to heavy anthropogenic nutrient loads on the aquatic ecosystem. Quantitative projections of its effects require an understanding of its driving mechanisms, i.e., the hydrodynamics that are responsible for the physical transport and mixing and the biogeochemical nutrients pathways within the algal ecosystem and between the particulate and dissolved phases in the water and in the sediments. A simple basin-scale hydrodynamic framework is set for the Gulf of Finland to test different descriptions of the biogeochemical transformation

Dans l'océan Austral, des contrastes intenses dans la distribution des écosystèmes pélagiques sont génerés par la limitation de la production primaire par le fer et la Courant Circumpolaire Antarctique. Les efflorescences massives en phytoplancton en aval des îles entretiennent des vastes réseaux trophiques. En comparaison, l'impact des sources profondes de nutriments sur la production pélagique semble négligeable. Les programmes de conservation dans la Courant Circumpolaire Antarctique vont

Cette thèse décrit les systèmes de production agricole en termes de flux biogéochimiques d’azote (N), de phosphore (P) et de carbone (C) dans les territoires français de 1852 à 2014 suivant une approche socio-écologique qui permet d’appréhender les logiques qui les gouvernent. Les résultats obtenus mettent en lumière à l’échelle des territoires français le lien systémique entre structures de production, bilans N et P et variations des stocks de C organique dans les sols agricoles.

Abstract:

Intensive marine aquaculture may cause negative impacts on the aquatic environment by causing water pollution, algae bloom and reduction in biodiversity of the surrounding aquatic environment. The nutrient-rich effluents from aquaculture activities contain nitrogen and phosphate which serve as a nutrient source for bivalve, algae and invertebrates. Seaweed and mussels have been integrated with marine species in culture systems to remove the waste from aquaculture farms. The research has explored the nutrient uptake capacities of green seaweed (Ulva lactuca) and blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) int
