The present work focuses on an assessment of the applicability of groundwater table (GWT) measures in the modelling of soil water retention characteristics (SWRC) using artificial neural network (ANN) methods. Model development, testing, validation and verification were performed using data collected across two decades from soil profiles at full-scale research objects located in Southwest Poland. A positive effect was observed between the initial GWT position data and the accuracy of soil water reserve estimation. On the other hand, no significant effects were observed following the implementation of GWT fluctuation data over the entire growing season. The ANN tests that used data of either soil water content or GWT position gave analogous results. This revealed that the easily obtained data (temperature, precipitation and GWT position) are the most accurate modelling parameters. These outcomes can be used to simplify modelling input data/parameters/variables in the practical implementation of the proposed SWRC modelling variants.

Fosfor i husdyrgjødsel blir i dag dårlig utnyttet, og det er vanlig at fosfor akkumuleres i jorden i områder med høy husdyrtetthet. Det har blitt utviklet en rekke ulike behandlingsteknologier som gjør det mulig å transportere fosfor i husdyrgjødsel fra husdyrtette områder til områder med behov for fosforgjødsel. Denne rapporten er en gjennomgang av litteraturen på de viktigste behandlingsteknologiene og deres effekt på gjødselvirkningen av fosforet i produktene.

PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Genetic differentiation in plant species may result from adaptation to environmental conditions, but also from stochastic processes. The drivers selecting for local adaptation and the contribution of adaptation to genetic differentiation are often unknown. Restoration and succession studies have revealed different colonization patterns for Brachypodium retusum, a common Mediterranean grass. In order to understand these patterns, we tested population differentiation and adaptation to different environmental factors. METHODS: Structured sampling of 12 populations from six sites and two soil types within site was used to analyze the spatial and environmental structure of population differentiation. Sampling sites differ in grazing intensity and climate. We tested germination and growth in a common garden. In subsets, we analyzed the differential response to stone cover, grazing and soil moisture. KEY RESULTS: We found significant differences among populations. The site explained population differentiation better than soil, suggesting a dominant influence of climate and/or genetic drift. Stone cover had a positive influence on seedling establishment, and populations showed a differential response. However, this response was not related to environmental differences between collection sites. Regrowth after clipping was higher in populations from the more intensively grazed Red Mediterranean soils suggesting an adaptation to grazing. Final germination was generally high even under drought, but germination response to differences in soil moisture was similar across populations. CONCLUSIONS: Adaptive population differentiation in germination and early growth may have contributed to different colonization patterns. Thus, the provenance of B. retusum needs to be carefully considered in ecological restoration.

Grønne tak kan bidra med mange økosystemtjenester og funksjoner som å holde tilbake og fordrøye nedbør på tak, fremme biologisk mangfold, estetikk osv., inkludert nye trender som takhager og urbane uterom, dyrking av mat og kombinasjoner med solcellepaneler. I denne rapporten gir vi en oversikt over disse ulike funksjonene, presenterer nye norske data på nedbørshåndteringen og peker på noen sentrale kunnskapshull for å utvikle teknologien videre.
