  1. 16. Can precommercial thinning be used to create more diversity after planting spruce?

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Astrid Bygge; [2024]
    Keywords : Forestry; pre-commercial; stand structure; heterogeneity; silviculture; mixed forests; monoculture; Picea abies; Betula spp.;

    Abstract : Mixed forests will harbour other ecosystem services than a planted coniferous monoculture. This study used early results from a long-term experiment to examine if different precommercial thinning treatments can be used to increase diversity in planted stands of Norway spruce (Picea abies) mixed with high densities of natural regeneration of birch (Betula spp. READ MORE

  3. 17. Audio Anomaly Detection in Cars

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för matematiska vetenskaper

    Author : Asma Hussein; [2023-09-11]
    Keywords : Audio Anomaly detection; Outlier detection; Machine learning; Mel Frequency; Chroma;

    Abstract : Audio anomaly detection in the context of car driving is a crucial task for ensuring vehicle safety and identifying potential faults. This paper aims to investigate and compare different methods for unsupervised audio anomaly detection using a data set consisting of recorded audio data from fault injections and normal "no fault" driving.

  4. 18. SOIL GROSS NITROGEN MINERALISATION AND FOREST GROWTH IN FOUR HEMIBOREAL FOREST STANDS IN SOUTHWEST SWEDEN

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Linnéa Eriksson; [2023-04-20]
    Keywords : soil C:N; forest production; 15N isotope dilution; gross N mineralisation; ammonium; soil carbon; soil nitrogen; root exudates; stoichiometric decomposition; boreal forests; priming; microbial C limitation;

    Abstract : Boreal and temperate forests together make up the largest terrestrial net C sink in the world. They take up carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it in plant biomass and soil as they grow, making them crucial in mitigating global climate change. READ MORE

  5. 19. Threats and opportunities in a contested field of integration – EU forest policy as framed in forest owner media

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Author : Marit Fahlander; [2023-01-17]
    Keywords : EU forest policy;

    Abstract : This thesis discusses the framing of EU forest policy in Swedish forest owner media, in the years 2006, 2013 and 2021. While Swedish forest owners have historically been influential in shaping EU forest policy, no research has previously been made on how the EU is framed in forest owner media. READ MORE

  6. 20. Vindkraftens påverkan på smålom

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Joel Hallingfors; Marcus Åsberg Genctürk; [2023]
    Keywords : smålom; vindkraftsetablering; skyddszon; buffertzoner; QGIS; habitatpåverkan;

    Abstract : Vindkraftsetableringar i Sverige ökar och har ökat kraftigt de senaste åren. Etableringen leder till att olika intressen krockar med varandra och hänsyn måste tas till drabbade arter som exempelvis smålom (Gavia stellata). READ MORE
