LÖDÖSEHUS: GEOPHYSICAL METHODS FOR DESCRIBING ARCHAEOLOGY AND NEAR-SURFACE GEOLOGY AT THE SITE OF A MEDIEVAL CASTLE IN LÖDÖSE, SW SWEDEN
(2021-09-21)
Near-surface geophysics is a well established method for mapping the geological conditions
in the subsurface. The use of geophysics is also a commonly used method in archaeological
surveys, although traditionally not as ...
Ash distribution and cavities in Icelandic glaciers, a marker for snow accumulation and radar signal velocity change
(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 ...
THE MONASTERY HILL: GEOPHYSICAL METHODS FOR DESCRIBING ARCHAEOLOGY AND NEAR-SURFACE GEOLOGY IN LÖDÖSE, SW SWEDEN
(2021-09-21)
Even though Sweden has been one of the leading countries in the development of nearsurface
geophysics instrumentation and practices, geophysical surveys in archaeology are not
commonly used in Sweden. However, it is ...
Microstructural evolution of ice under simple shear deformation
(2021-01-11)
To investigate microstructure in ice deformed under simple shear conditions experiments
were performed with artificial polycrystalline ice and natural ice samples form Vatnajökull
glacier in Iceland. A new deformation ...
Loess in southwestern Sweden. Determining the genesis of the silt-rich layer rödfemman in Svartedalen nature reserve
(2021-10-28)
The presence of loess in Sweden is relatively unexplored and has only been found in a few
places. Loess acts as a paleoclimatic proxy, which in times of changing climates, is highly
relevant. In 1992, Svensson wrote a ...
Dynamic streams in a pre-alpine catchment
(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 ...
Variations in depositional environments of the Paleogene Firkanten Formation across Adventdalen, from Operafjellet to Breinosa
(2021-03-18)
The lowermost Paleogene clastic infill of the Central Spitsbergen Tertiary Basin, the coal bearing Firkanten
Formation, has been the subject of study for researchers in the past but little focus has been on the
northeast ...
Hydrological catchment analysis from characterisation of organic matter in stream water
(2020-02-05)
Organic matter (OM) in aquatic systems is a complex field which have rapidly developed during
the last decade due to the introduction of high resolution mass spectrometers. The composition
of OM in the aquatic environment ...
Fosfors omsättningstid i jord med metoden 33P inkubationsexperiment kombination med isotop utbytes kinetik (IEK) med 33P
(2020-02-05)
Fosfor är en begränsad resurs på jorden, i vissa länder går det att finna fosfor naturligt i fosfat
rikt berg. För att utnyttja den mängd fosfor som finns på jorden på bästa möjliga vis, är det
viktigt att få en djupare ...
Mercury and methyl mercury release in soil and water - their relationship with different properties in Skogaryd
(2020-07-08)
In Skogaryd research site, water samples were taken and analysed for total mercury (Hgtot) and
methylmercury (MeHg) concentration along with the pH, dissolved oxygen (DO) and total organic
content (TOC). This to give the ...
