  1. 1. Hydraulic Modelling of Eurasian Beaver Structural Modifications: Implications for Evaluating their Contributions to Natural Flood Management in Scotland

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Maja Christina Pitcairn; [2023]
    Keywords : Beaver reintroduction; Scotland; Flood risk; Natural flood management; Hydraulic modelling.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The concurrent climate and biodiversity crises in Scotland necessitate the exploration of ecosystem-based adaptation to simultaneously address increased flood risk and the loss of native species. This research investigated the contributions of Eurasian beaver reintroductions to natural flood management in Scotland. READ MORE

    Keywords : microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. READ MORE

  6. 5. Detectability of insects in Malaise traps : assessing insect detectability in Malaise traps through High-Resolution Sampling, and development of a novel marking technique

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Viktor Gårdman; [2023]
    Keywords : Malaise trap; activity; movement; weather; mark-recapture; detectability; insects;

    Abstract : Malaise traps are extensively used in insect surveys and studies, yet the detectability of insects in relation to the traps remain unknown. Detectability is the odds that a taxon ends up in a trap, given that the taxon is present in the area around the trap. READ MORE
