Catchment effects of a future Nordic bioeconomy: From land use to water resources
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09-14)In the future, the world is expected to rely increasingly on renewable biomass resources for food, fodder, fibre and fuel. The sustainability of this transition to bioeconomy for our water systems depends to a large extent ... -
Climate effects on land management and stream nitrogen concentrations in small agricultural catchments in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09-12)Land use and climate change can impact water quality in agricultural catchments. The objectives were to assess long-term monitoring data to quantify changes to the thermal growing season length, investigate farmer adaptations ... -
Climate mitigation and intensified forest management in Norway: To what extent are surface waters safeguarded?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09-12)While the role of forestry in mitigating climate change is increasingly subject to political commitment, other areas, such as water protection, may be at risk. In this study, we ask whether surface waters are sufficiently ... -
Comparing nutrient reference concentrations in Nordic countries with focus on lowland rivers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09-15)Reference conditions of water bodies are defined as the natural or minimal anthropogenically disturbed state. We compared the methods for determining total phosphorus and total nitrogen concentrations in rivers in Finland, ... -
Phosphorus retention, erosion protection and farmers’ perceptions of riparian buffer zones with grass and natural vegetation: Case studies from South-Eastern Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09-15)Phosphorus retention and bank erosion was investigated in two types of buffer zones in cereal fields in Norway: zones used for grass production and zones with natural vegetation. Farmers’ views on the two types of buffer ... -
Potential impacts of a future Nordic bioeconomy on surface water quality
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-09-12)Nordic water bodies face multiple stressors due to human activities, generating diffuse loading and climate change. The ‘green shift’ towards a bio-based economy poses new demands and increased pressure on the environment. ...
