Carbon neutral expansion of oil palm plantations in the Neotropics

Alexandre Buttler, Thomas Guillaume, Juan Carlos Quezada Rivera

Alternatives to ecologically devastating deforestation land use change trajectories are needed to reduce the carbon footprint of oil palm (OP) plantations in the tropics. Although various land use change options have been proposed, so far, there are no emp ...

Seasonal and spatial variation in hydrochemical parameters of Lake Onego (Russia): insights from 2016 field monitoring

Natacha Tofield-Pasche

This study describes seasonal water quality parameters measured in Petrozavodsk Bay, Lake Onego, Russia. Petrozavodsk Bay (PB) lies in the north of Lake Onego and adjacent to the city of Petrozavodsk. PB water quality is controlled by anthropogenic input, ...

Comparative Evaluation of Three Sugarcane Supply Strategies in Colombia: Logistics, Energy and GHG Emissions

François Maréchal, Jairo Alexander Lozano Moreno

Sugarcane-based ethanol in Colombia has a prospective opportunity to explore the production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass taking into account that a large amount of generated residues (between 50 and 100 t/ha) are left on the field after green ha ...

Characterization of fulvic acid fractions of dissolved organic matter during ice-out in a hyper-eutrophic, coastal pond in Antarctica

Jennifer Guerard

Dissolved humic material (HDOM) is ubiquitous to all natural waters and its source material influences its chemical structure, reactivity, and bioavailability. While terrestrially derived HDOM reference materials distributed by the International Humic Subs ...

Evaluating the 'conservative' behavior of stable isotopic ratios (delta C-13, delta N-15, and delta O-18) in humic acids and their reliability as paleoenvironmental proxies along a peat sequence

Luca Bragazza

Although several studies have used bogs in order to reconstruct paleoclimatic conditions and the historical trends of pollutants, scientific literature is still rather controversial about the role of ombrotrophic bogs as reliable record of past environment ...

Using Plants to Remove Foreign Compounds from Contaminated Water and Soil

Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel

Depending on the physico-chemical properties of the organic pollutant to be removed or detoxified, as well as on the specific plant physiology and biochemistry, different phytotreatments are available to decontaminate water and soils. For example, aquatic ...

Comparison of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) Biouptake by Green Algae in the Presence of Humic Acid

Cristina Lamelas

The present study examines the role of humic acid, as a representative of dissolved organic matter, in Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) speciation and biouptake by green microalgae. Cellular and intracellular metal fractions were compared in the presence of citri ...

Chlorination of natural organic matter: kinetics of chlorination and of THM formation

Urs von Gunten

The kinetics of the formation of trihalomethanes (THMs) and of chlorine consumption for the chlorination of natural organic matter with an excess of chlorine (50 muM > Cl-2 > 210 muM) was investigated. THM precursors could be divided into a fast and a ...

Etude du cycle biogéochimique du cuivre et du cadmium dans deux écosystèmes forestiers

Catherine Keller

The biogeochemical cycle of copper and cadmium has been studied in two forested ecosystems for two years. These two sites are: a) a Norway spruce forest (Picea abies) on an acid brown soil (FAQ: Dystric cambisol) and b) a mixed coniferous forest (Picea abi ...
