  1. 21. Bumblebee resource dynamics : a review of foraging and nesting in the agricultural landscape

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Anna Douhan Sundahl; [2020]
    Keywords : bumblebees; bumblebee population dynamics; bumblebee drivers; flower strips; competition with honeybees; foraging; nesting; hibernation;

    Abstract : 90 % of all plants on earth either benefits or entirely depends on pollination. There are pollinators among families of bees (Apidea), butterflies (Lepidoptera) and birds (Aves). Bees of genus Bombus spp., bumblebees, are especially important and provide pollination service for 80 % of the crops of Europe and many wild plant species. READ MORE

  3. 22. The Dark Side of IoT : Revealing Activities in the Smart Home Environment using Machine Learning

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Datorteknik

    Author : Ahmed Hussain; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With the emerging trend of smart IoT devices, providing and ensuring the privacy of the users'-devices interaction relationship is a must; risks such as identifying users' activities and detecting user behavior while at home or in the office. We present a new machine learning attack that exploits network patterns to detect the presence of smart IoT devices, and services generated by these devices in the Wi-Fi radio spectrum. READ MORE

  4. 23. Gynnas talgoxens häckningsframgång av gallring i barrskogen? : en experimentell studie om anpassad skogsgallring

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Angelia Ellvin; [2020]
    Keywords : talgoxe; häckningsframgång; boreal skog; gallring; undervegetation;

    Abstract : Skogsbruket orsakar strukturella förändringar som hotar biologisk mångfald världen över, men industrin är samtidigt nödvändig för samhället. Speciellt undervegetationen försvinner ofta vid låggallring (CT), som är den dominerande gallringsmetoden i bl.a. Skandinavien, Baltikum och Ryssland. READ MORE

  5. 24. Dietary preferences of Golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) in Sweden : a camera trap approach
