    Author : Linn Friis-Liby; [2022]
    Keywords : Exoplanets; TESS; K2; Transit Timing Variations;

    Abstract : Aims. The aim of this work is to investigate any presence of transit timing variations (TTVs) in a sample of observed targets that has light curves in both K2 mission data and TESS mission data.  Methods. The original sample utilised here was one from the doctoral thesis of D. READ MORE

  3. 17. Influence of surface water availability on the distribution of White Rhinoceros in central Greater Kruger

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Julie Mauguiere; [2022]
    Keywords : White Rhinoceros; Ceratotherium simum; water provisioning; artificial water; ecological processes; habitat selection; spatial ecology; landscape use; KNP; APNR; SAWC;

    Abstract : The population of white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum) is now declining in the Kruger National Park (KNP) in South Africa due to the intense poaching crisis ongoing since the early 2000s. The need for an efficient conservation effort has never been greater and requires a better understanding of white rhinoceros distribution in the landscape. READ MORE

  6. 20. The Combined Influences of Canopy Openness, Browsing Protection, and Low Intensity Fire on the Natural Regeneration of Oak in Southern Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Benjamin Miles; [2022]
    Keywords : burn; browsing; disturbance; fire; light; oak; Q.robur; Q.petraea; ungulates;

    Abstract : Whilst oak was historically prevalent in the landscape of temperate Europe, changes in the disturbance regime of forests have led to limited regeneration across its distribution. In this study, the fire oak hypothesis is tested to assess the tolerance of Quercus robur and Quercus petraea recruits (seedlings and saplings) to a low intensity burn, and how this response may differ depending on the presence of browsing and canopy openness.
