  1. 1. Spatial distribution and thermo-climatic effects on the abundance of non-toxigenic Vibrio cholerae in Russia

    University essay from Södertörns högskola/Institutionen för naturvetenskap, miljö och teknik

    Author : Vadim Leonov; [2023]
    Keywords : V. cholerae; spatial analysis; climate change; heat wave; SatScan; vibriosis; Russia;

    Abstract : The identification of climate temperature-sensitive pathogens and infectious diseases is essential in addressing health risks resulting from global warming. Such research is especially crucial in regions where climate change may have a more significant impact like Russia. Recent studies have reasoned that the abundance of V. READ MORE

  3. 2. Bete av hästar och nötkreatur : påverkan på biologisk mångfald i betesmarker

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Author : Theodor Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : nötkreatur; hästar; bete; betesmark; naturbetesmark; betespåverkan; betestryck; biologisk mångfald;

    Abstract : Naturbetesmarker är några av Sveriges och Europas mest artrika miljöer, och deras biologiska mångfald är beroende av en fortsatt beteshävd. Under de senaste årtiondena har antalet nötkreatur i Sverige minskat, medan antalet hästar ökat. Hästar skulle kunna användas för att hävda naturbetesmarker i större utsträckning än idag. READ MORE

  4. 3. Hibernation Sites and Activity of Bats During Winter

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

    Author : Jacqueline Nelms; [2023]
    Keywords : bats; temperate bats; hibernation; winter activity; temperature; hibernation sites; fladdermöss; tempererade fladdermöss; övervintring; vinteraktivitet; temperatur; övervintringsplatser;

    Abstract : In the temperate region, bats have evolved the strategy of hibernation to survive the harsh winter. During hibernation, bats enter the vulnerable state of torpor that requires specific environmental conditions to function optimally. Bats are known to use caves and anthropogenic structures as hibernation sites. READ MORE
