KLIMAFORSK-Stort program klima

Warming of Arctic Meadow under Pollution Stress: Effects and Potential Adaptation

Ytterligere oppvarming og utslipp av drivhusgasser forventes å bli høyest i arktiske og boreale økosystemer som er utsatt for oppvarming. Arktisk landbruk, i form av dyrket grasmark, er et unikt og økonomisk relevant trekk ved Nord-Norge (f.eks. Finnmark). MeadoWarm-prosjektet har hatt som mål 1)...

ENERGIX-Stort program energi

Biogas Reactor Technology for Norwegian Agriculture

For å redusere utslippet av drivhusgasser fra norsk landbruk er det et mål å behandle en stor del av husdyrgjødsla i biogassanlegg. En av mulighetene for å bedre økonomien i slike biogassanlegg er å sambehandle gjødsel med energirike substrat som fiskeens ilasje eller slakteriavfall. Imidlertid e...

Greenhouse gases in the North: from local to regional scale

Klimagassflukser mellom terrestriske økosystemer og atmosfæren påvirker klimasystemet i stor grad. Hittil har det blitt utført lite forskning i Norge på dette viktige forskningstemaet. Målet med prosjektet har vært å bygge forskningskapasitet i Norge for bedre å forstå klimagassflukser fra terres...

In Situ Site Preservation of Archaelogical Remains in the Unsaturated Zone

International treaties and conventions are designed to protect the archaeological heritage as a source of the European collective memory and as an instrument for historical and scientific study. E.g. the Valletta treaty (Council of Europe, 1992) also call s for preservation of the archaeological ...

ENERGIX-Stort program energi

Use of solar energy for CO2 capture, algae cultivation and hydrogen production

BioH2 prosjektet er et samarbeidsprosjekt mellom Bioforsk og NMBU. Prosjektkonseptet kombinerer omdannelse av solenergi til algebiomasse gjennom å utnytte algenes fotosyntese, bruk og fangst av karbondioksid fra forbrenningsreaksjoner/røykgasser fra industri og produksjon av H2 fra algekultur...

KLIMAFORSK-Stort program klima

Extreme weather in small catchments: new method for flood protection

In this project we seek to quantify effects of up- and downstream measures in catchments to reduce negative effects of extreme weather. The work will include development of new measures, review existing measures, testing of these and incorporating them in existing runoff models to produce a land...

FRINATEK-Fri prosj.st. mat.,naturv.,tek

Advanced techniques to evaluate the long-term stability and carbon sequestration potential of different types of biochar

Biochar is emerging as one of the most promising tools to remove CO2 from the atmosphere and permanently sequester carbon (C) in soils. The technology is based on pyrolysis of fresh biomass, a process that also generates energy in the form of syn-gas and bio-oil. Pyrolysis conditions greatly aff...

FRINATEK-Fri prosj.st. mat.,naturv.,tek

Combining multi-compartment sampler and geophysical techniques for monitoring contaminant transport in soils

Pollution of soils is a widespread problem and is an important part of the still to be implement Soil Directive (EU). The impact of agriculture, industry, airport activities on soil and water quality is strongly influenced by soil heterogeneity. To improve risk assessment, monitoring, and treatme...

PERMASOM - Organic matter in permafrost: molecular composition and associated response to increasing temperature

The release of CO2 to the atmosphere from the mineralization of soil organic matter (SOM) in thawing permafrost is one of the largest potential feedback mechanisms on the climate system. This positive feedback, i.e. it will aggravate climate changes, is d ue to the fact that SOM decomposes faster...

NANO2021-Nanoteknologi og nye materiale

Environmental fate and ecotoxicity of manufactured nanoparticles

The increasing use of nanomaterials in recent years has caused public concern for risks related to environmental spreading of nanoparticles (NPs). This concern is partly due to a lack of knowledge on the properties and behaviour of NPs, and a lack of comm unication from the scientific community t...

Recycling organic waste - effects on soil quality, plant nutrient supply and environmental impact

Return of organic wastes to soils is a step towards more closed nutrient cycles, greater sustainability and reduced environmental loads. Because of the enormously variation of availability of plant nutrient as nitrogen and phosphorus between different org anic waste types, there is a great demand...
