  1. 11. Investigating the use of olfactory cues to re-direct African savannah elephant pathways. A potential conflict mitigation tool.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Vera Ruijs; [2023-06-30]
    Keywords : African savannah elephants – conflict mitigation – elephant pathways – human-elephant conflict – olfactory cues;

    Abstract : Human-elephant conflict resulting from, for example crop raiding behaviour, poses a significant threat to the conservation of African savannah elephants (Loxodonta africana). These conflicts can lead to fatalities in both humans and elephants. READ MORE

  3. 12. Influence of different carbon sources on methane fluxes in sediments of eelgrass beds and unvegetated areas: a case study on the Swedish west coast

    Abstract : One of the best ways to mitigate climate change is through natural carbon sequestration. An efficient way to mitigate climate change is through carbon sequestration from coastal habitats. READ MORE

  4. 13. Development of osmo- and appetite regulation during transfer of smolt from freshwater to increasing salinities

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Jonna Hellesten; [2023-01-26]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is common in Scandinavian aquaculture and must be transferred from freshwater to seawater to grow properly. Despite being assessed as ready smolts, meaning they have gone through the physiological changes to prepare for SW transfer, the transfer result in a mortality rate of around 13-19%, and significant appetite- and growth reductions.

  5. 14. Selected PFAS in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå : Investigating concentration and composition of selected PFAS in different water treatment steps

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Amanda Carlund; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present study investigated the changes in concentration and composition of five selected PFAS substances in the water treatment at the waste-to-energy plant in Umeå. The five PFAS were PFHxA, PFHpA, PFOA, PFHxS and PFOS. As PFAS exists in a variety of consumer products, they will to some extent end up in waste incineration. READ MORE

  6. 15. Exploring patterns in risk factors for bark beetle attack during outbreaks triggered by drought stress with harvester data on attacked trees: A case study in Southeastern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Nikolaos Kouskoulis; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Forest ecosystems; Bark beetle outbreak; Southeastern Sweden; Predisposing factors; Triggering factors; Drought stress; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Raising temperatures and climate variability have intensified extreme weather events worldwide. These extremes can enhance and trigger possible pest outbreaks. Bark beetle attacks have become a major concern in regions with extensive spruce forest areas. Southeastern Sweden has faced repeated outbreaks resulting in widespread tree loss. READ MORE
