<p>Chlorinated solvents are common contaminants in soil and water. Under anaerobic conditions microbes are capable of transforming chlorinated solvents into ethylene which would result in a remediation of the contaminated area. In order to use natural attenuation as a remediation method evidence of continuous degradation is required. Furthermore, the degradation must occur at a sufficient rate and continuous monitoring of the site is needed until the demanded levels are achieved. A field study was performed on the basis of data from a dry-cleaning facility contaminated mainly by perchloroethylene. The purpose of the study was to define the existing situation regarding distribution and transformation of contaminant in order to evaluate the possibilities of using natural attenuation as a method of remediation. Degradation of perchloroethylene proceeds through successive removal of chlorine, with the formation of trichloroethylene, dichloroethylene, vinyl chloride and ethylene. There exists evidence of degradation as far as vinyl chloride on the site but whether transformation continues to ethylene is not established. The computer model Biochlor was used to simulate distribution and degradation of the contaminants. The site possesses a complex hydrogeology and the existing data are not sufficient to distinguish the effect of degradation from other factors such as spreading of contaminant between different layers of soil. Since degradation failed to be quantified, natural attenuation can not be recommended as a safe remediation method at the considered site without further investigations.</p> / <p>Klorerade lösningsmedel är vanligt förekommande föroreningar i mark och vatten. Under anaeroba förhållanden kan mikrober omvandla klorerade kolväten till eten vilket leder till rening av det förorenade området. För att kunna använda denna naturliga nedbrytning som saneringsmetod krävs bevis för att nedbrytning fortskrider i tillräcklig utsträckning för att rena området och därefter krävs kontinuerlig provtagning till dess målen för saneringen har uppnåtts. En fallstudie utfördes utifrån data från en kemtvättsfastighet förorenad av i första hand perkloreten. Syftet var att kartlägga föroreningssituationen med avseende på spridning och nedbrytning av de klorerade föreningarna för att undersöka om naturlig nedbrytning var en möjlig framtida saneringsmetod. Nedbrytning av perkloreten sker stegvis genom att klor avspjälkas, under bildande av produkterna trikloreten, dikloreten, vinylklorid och etengas. Nedbrytning av förorening har konstaterats ske på fastigheten fram till vinylklorid men huruvida nedbrytning avstannat där eller fullföljts till etengas är ej klarlagt. Datormodellen Biochlor användes för att simulera spridning och nedbrytning av utsläppet. Fältplatsen har en komplex hydrogeologi och befintliga fältdata var inte tillräckliga för att särskilja nedbrytningens effekt från faktorer såsom spridning av förorening mellan olika jordlager. Eftersom nedbrytningen inte kunde kvantifieras kan naturlig nedbrytning inte rekommenderas som säker saneringsmetod på denna fältplats utan kompletterande analyser.</p>

In all areas of hydrology, where one or several variables are measured as a function of time, it might be necessary to interpolate the measured variable(s). There is a form of artificial intelligence (AI) called neural networks, which seem to be appropriate for this application. In an environmental project in Bolivia, where, among others, the concentrations of arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) in the polluted Huanuni river was measured, a data set appropriate for application of the neural network method was available. Several neural networks with different configurations were used to interpolate concentration values of the three sampled metals. The neural networks interpolated concentrations at time steps where actual, measured, values existed so that an estimate of the method’s capacity could be obtained. The neural networks’ interpolating capability were compared to that of linear interpolation and linear equations derived by multiple regression. In the case of cadmium, the linear interpolation was the best method, whereas the neural network method was best at interpolating arsenic and lead concentrations. The conclusions of this study are that the neural network method was the most succesful method; that this method was the most complicated to implement; that this method was not fully optimised; and that, to evaluate the neural network method’s general applicability as an interpolation method in hydrology, further studies have to be conducted. / Inom alla områden av hydrologin, där man mäter en eller flera variabler som funktion av tid, kan det finnas ett behov av att interpolera glesa tidsseriedata. Det finns en form av artificiell intelligens (AI) som kallas för neurala nät, vilken verkar vara lämplig att applicera på detta problem. Genom ett miljöprojekt i Bolivia, där bl.a. arsenik-, bly-, och kadmiumkoncentrationer i den förorenade floden Huanuni mättes, blev data lämpliga för applicering av den neurala nätmetoden tillgängliga. Flera neurala nät med olika konfigurationer användes för att interpolera koncentrationsvärden av de tre metallerna. De neurala näten interpolerade värden längs tidssteg där verkliga, uppmätta, koncentrationsvärden fanns, så att en uppskattning av metodens kapacitet kunde göras. Dess kapacitet jämfördes med kapaciteten hos två andra metoder: linjär interpolation och linjära ekvationssystem härledda med hjälp av multipel regression. Den linjära interpolationsmetoden var bäst i fallet kadmium, medan den neurala nätmetoden var bäst i de två andra fallen. Slutsatserna av den här studien är att den neurala nätmetoden var den bästa; att denna metod var den mest komplicerade att använda; att denna metod inte var helt optimerad, och att det krävs ytterligare studier för att utvärdera den neurala nätmetodens allmänna lämplighet som metod att interpolera glesa hydrologiska tidsseriedata.

Vid hydrologiska studier är det ofta nödvändigt att känna till flödesvägar och uppehållstider för markvattnet. Syreisotopen 18O kan användas som ett konservativt hydrologiskt spårämne för att bestämma vattnets rörelse. Vid extrahering av markvatten från jordprover för 18O-analys används ofta en destillationsmetod. En enklare och snabbare metod för att extrahera markvatten är att använda en höghastighetscentrifug. Problemet är att allt markvatten i ett jordprov inte extraheras med denna metod. Det är därför möjligt att vatten extraherat genom centrifugering inte har en 18O-halt som är representativ för markvattnet. I den här undersökningen jämfördes 18O-halterna i vatten extraherat genom centrifugering och destillering. Markvatten extraherades från ostörda jordprover och från torkade jordprover mättade med vatten av känd 18O-halt. Extraktionerna gjordes både genom centrifugering vid olika hastigheter följt av destillation och genom enbart destillation. Samtliga jordprover torkades sedan. Skillnaden i 18O-halt mellan vatten extraherat genom centrifugering vid olika hastigheter var små. 18O-halten för destillaten var, med ett undantag, lägre än för centrifugaten. Torkningen av jordproverna visade dock att allt markvatten inte hade extraherats vid destillationen. Detta kan vara en förklaring till den lägre 18O-halten hos destillaten. På grund av ofullständig destillation kunde inte den här undersökningen avgöra i vilken grad 18O-halterna i centrifugaten var representativa för den del av markvattnet som är hårdast bunden till marken. För att karaktärisera 18O-halten i det rörligaste markvattnet, är dock centrifugering inte bara en snabbare metod, utan också en metod med färre felkällor än destillationsmetoden. / In hydrological studies it is often necessary to know the flow pathways and residence time of soil water. The oxygen isotope 18O can be used as a conservative hydrological tracer to help determine water´s movement. To extract soil water from soil samples for 18O analysis, a distillation method is often used. An easier and faster method for extracting soil water is high speed centrifugation. All soil water, however, is not extracted from a soil sample by this method. It is therefore possible that the water extracted by centrifugation does not have an 18O content that is representative of the soil water. In this study, the 18O values of water extracted by distillation and centrifugation are compared. Soil water was extracted from undisturbed soil samples and from oven-dried soil samples saturated with water of a known 18O content. The extractions were done both by centrifugation at different speeds followed by distillation and by distillation only. All of the samples were then oven-dried. The differences in 18O content between water extracted by centrifugation at different speeds were small. The 18O content in the water extracted by distillation was, with one exception, more depleted in 18O than the water extracted by centrifugation. From the oven-drying it was seen that the distillations did not succeed in extracting all soil water. This might be a reason for the depletion in 18O content of the water extracted by distillation. Due to incomplete distillation, this study was not able to determine how well the 18O content in water extracted by centrifugation represents the water bound most strongly to the soil. For characterizing the 18O content in the least bound soil water, however, centrifugation is not only faster, but also less prone to error than distillation.

As a response to the environmental degradation of many coastal areas in east Africa research have been initiated aiming towards the understanding of the coastal ecosystems and the interactions between them. The sediment of three seagrass communities were investigated with regard to nitrification, denitrification, pore water nutrient content, organic content and physical character. The aim was to estimate the magnitude and importance of nitrification and denitrification and correlate those to any difference in organic load. Total organic carbon and total nitrogen decreased while C:N ratio increased with distance from the mangroves indicating a larger organic load closer to the mangroves. There was however no significant difference between the sites regarding ammonium and nitrate + nitrite concentrations in the porewater; nor regarding denitrification. Recalculated to ambient nitrate concentrations denitrification was less than 157 nmol N m-2h-1. No trend could be seen for nitrification either. Nitrification ranged from 0-12.0 µmol N m-2h-1, but the method used may underestimate the rates. Denitrification, and especially nitrification rates, varied considerably within each site indicating an extremely patchy environment. Considering that nutrient regeneration rates in tropical environments are usually high, nitrification and denitrification seemed to be minor pathways in the nitrogen cycle irrespective of organic load. The study also suggests that nitrification and denitrification may be of less importance in Chwaka bay compared to other areas studied. / Som svar på den försämrade miljön i flera kustområden i Östafrika har forskning påbörjats inriktad på förståelsen av kustliga ekosystem samt samspelet dem emellan. Sedimentet i tre sjögräsområden undersöktes med avseende på nitrifikation, denitrifikation, näringshalt i porvattnet, organisk halt samt fysikalisk karaktär. Syftet var att uppskatta storleken och betydelsen av nitrifikation och denitrifikation samt att korrelera dessa med organisk belastning. Totala halten organiskt kol och totala halten kväve minskade medan C:N kvoten ökade med avståndet till mangroven vilket tyder på en större organisk belastning närmare mangroven. Det var däremot ingen signifikant skillnad mellan områdena beträffande ammonium- eller nitrat + nitrit koncentrationen i porvattnet; inte heller beträffande denitrifikation. Omräknad till föreliggande nitratkoncentrationer var denitrifikationen mindre än 157 nmol N m-2h-1. Nitrifikationen varierade från 0-12.0 µmol N m-2h-1, men den använda metoden kan ha underskattat hastigheterna. Någon trend i nitrifikationen syntes inte heller. Denitrifikationen och speciellt nitrifikationen varierade avsevärt inom varje område vilket tyder på en extremt omväxlande miljö. Med tanke på att regenerationen av näringsämnen ofta är hög i tropiska miljöer så verkade nitrifikationen och denitrifikationen vara mindre betydelsefulla delar i kvävecykeln oavsett organisk belastning. Denna studie tyder också på att nitrifikation och denitrifikation är mindre betydelsefulla i Chwaka bay än i andra studerade områden.

Lake evaporation from a shallow lake in central Sweden has been estimated using three independent methods from measurements during summer 1995. The applied isotope method is a combination of the water and isotope mass balance. Its main feature is that inflows need not to be measured. Only knowledge of their isotopic content is sufficient. For calculations by the bulk aerodynamic method a computer program was applied, which takes into account the different conditions of stratification. The energy balance of the lake was determined by using the short and long wave radiation, heat storage and advective heat energy. Measurements were done on a small island and at a mast in the middle of the lake. Evaporation estimated by all the methods varied from -1.1 to 5.0 mm/d during the summer months 1995. Values estimated by the energy balance method agreed well with those from the bulk aerodynamic method. Evaporation estimates from the isotope method a showed fairly good agreement with the two other methods, excepting a few periods. It was found that both the isotope as well as the energy balance method are sensitive to errors in lake volume. Both methods carry some uncertainty due to their dependence on water balance components, some of which are difficult to determine. The bulk aerodynamic method is independent of the water balance of the lake. A good accuracy can be achieved using only four variables i.e. wind speed, relative humidity, skin and air temperature. / Avdunstningen från den grunda sjön Tämnaren i centrala Sverige bestämdes med tre oberoende metoder ur mätningar från sommaren 1995. Den använda isotopmetoden är en kombination av vatten- och isotopbalansen. Dess viktigaste fördel är att inflödet inte behöver mätas, utan att kännedom om isotophalten är tillräcklig. För beräkningarna med den bulk-aerodynamiska metoden användes ett datorprogram som tar hänsyn till atmosfärens stabilitet. Energibalansen beräknades ur kort- och långvågsstrålningen, värmelagringen och den tillförda energin. Mätningarna utfördes dels på en liten ö och dels vid en mast mitt i sjön. Avdunstningen varierade mellan -1.1 mmd-1 till 5.0 mmd-1. Resultaten från energibalansmetoden överenstämde bra med resultaten från den bulk-aerodynamiska metoden. Även resultaten från isotopmetoden överenstämde bra med resultaten från de två andra metoderna, med undantag av några få perioder. Både isotop- och energibalansmetoden var känsliga för feluppskattningar av sjövolymen. Båda metoderna innehåller osäkerheter som en följd av deras beroende på vissa av vattenbalansens komponenter, som är svåra att bestämma. Den bulk-aerodynamiska metoden är oberoende av sjöns vattenbalans och en bra noggranhet kan uppnås med mätningar av endast de fyra variablerna vindhastighet, relativ fuktighet, yt- och lufttemperatur. / Die Verdunstung von einem flachen See in Zentralschweden wurde mit Hilfe von drei unabhängigen Methoden bestimmt. Die Messungen wurden im Sommer 1995 durchgeführt. Die angewandte Isotopenmethode ist eine Kombination aus Wasserbilanz and lsotop-Massenbilanz. Das besondere Merkmal dieser Methode ist es, daß Zuflüsse nicht gemessen werden müssen. Es genügt, ihre isotopische Zusammensetzung zu kennen. Für die Berechungen mit der bulk-aerodynamischen Methode wurde ein Computerprogamm verwendet, das die unterschiedlichen atmosphärischen Schichtungen berücksichtigt. Die Energiebilanz des Sees wurde mit Hilfe der kurz- und langwelligen Strahlung, der gespeicherten Energie im See und der durch Zuflüsse und Niederschlag zugeführten Energie bestimmt. Die Messungen wurden auf einer kleiner Insel und an einem Mast in der Mitte des Sees durchgeführt. Die Verdunstung reichte von -1.1 mmd-1 bis 5.0 mmd-1 während der Sommermonate 1995. Die Ergebnisse der Energiebilanz stimmten gut mit den Ergebnissen der bulk-aerodynamischen Methode überein. Die Ergebnisse der Isotopenmethode stimmten relativ gut mit den Ergebnissen der beiden anderen Methoden überein, mit Ausnahme einiger Perioden. Es wurde festgestellt, daß sowohl die Isotopenmethode als auch die Energiebilanzmethode sensibel auf Fehler im Seevolumen reagieren. Beide Methoden enthalten einige Unsicherheiten wegen ihrer Abhängikeit von Wasserbilanzkomponenten, die z.T. schwer zu bestimmen sind. Die bulk-aerodynamische Methode dagegen ist unabhängig von der Wasserbilanz des Sees. Gute Ergebnisse können mit nur vier zu messenden Variablen erreicht werden (Windgeschwindigkeit, relative Luftfeuchtigkeit, Wasseroberflächen- und Lufttemperatur). / <p>Parts of the thesis work later published as:</p><p>Saxena, R., Jaedicke, C., &amp; Lundin, L.
