* 8-bit TeX does not distinguish Å and Å.
* With xunicode sty, it is LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE for both:
\DeclareUTFcharacter[\UTFencname]{x00C5}{\AA}
\DeclareUTFcomposite[\UTFencname]{x00C5}{\r}{A}
* With tuenc.def \r{A} is Å, too:
\DeclareTextComposite{\r} \UnicodeEncodingName{A}{"00C5}
but \AA is not defined.

Jag vet.

Aa is the transkription in case there are no accents (like ue for ü).

Fine.

Strange. What engine and font do you use?

This is a JabRef shortcoming. Maybe you can use a literal Å?
