We need to remediate the capacity of agricultural landscapes to retain water, nutrients and sediments to make them
more resilient to the increasing frequency of flooding, drought and pollution expected with the climate change. It can
be done by remediating existing narrow ditches into ditches with bevelled slopes, wider channels and two-stage ditches, with a goal of slowing the water down and increasing biogeochemical removal of nutrients and sediments. These remediated ditches are now widespread in the Swedish landscape and needed as almost half of the 90 000 km of open ditches are in poor ecological status. Thus, our project aims at understanding factors controlling cost-effectiveness of remediated dtiches, their design, maintenance, and the impact on downstream water quality. This will provide stakeholders with tools to maximise effectiveness and evaluate the impact of existing and new measures needed to compensate for future pressures on agricultural landscapes.
Inför klimatförändringarna behöver vi återställa jordbrukslandskapets kapacitet att behålla vatten, näringsämnen och
sediment för att höja motståndskraften mot de förväntade ökningarna av näringsförluster, torka och översvämningar.
Detta kan göras genom att konvertera smala öppna diken till diken med avfasade kanter, diken med bredare fåra eller
tvåstegsdiken, för att fördröja vattnet och öka biogeokemiska omvandlingar. Dessa åtgärder finns redan i det svenska
landskapet och behövs eftersom nästan hälften av 90 000 km av diken i Sverige är i dålig ekologisk status. Vårt
projekt vill klarlägga styrande faktorer av kostnadseffektivitet av åtgärder i jordbruksdiken, deras design, skötsel och
placering i avrinningområden, och påverkan på nedströms vattenkvalitet i nuvarande och framtida klimat. Detta
kommer ge intressenter verktyg för att maximera effektiviteten och utvärdera påverkan av existerande och nya
åtgärder som behövs för att kompensera för framtida tryck på jordbrukslandskapet.

Just going to the bathroom is contributing to algae blooms and climate change. Sweden alone releases roughly 15400 tonnes of N and 240 tonnes of P into lakes, rivers and seas, through municipal wastewater (including after treatment). Urine contains 80% of the plant nutrients found in wastewater and …
