5. 4. Land cover changes in Southern Sweden from the mid-Holocene to present day: insights for ecosystem service assessments

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Robert O'Dwyer; [2019]
   Keywords : Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Physical Geography; Götaland; Landscape Reconstruction Algorithm; Fossil Pollen; Ecosystem Services; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Climate change and human impact play a huge role in the sustainability and development of ecosystems and the services they offer to societies over temporal and spatial scales. Fossil pollen-based estimates provide unique information on past land cover change, but to date there are not many methods able to create spatially continuous maps and have a fine scale of land cover changes inferred from pollen information.
