  1. 1. Diving Deep: Seabird foraging tactics and local prey field

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Aquatic Resources

    Author : Elin Andersson Sjöholm; [2024]
    Keywords : Common Guillemot; Uria aalge; Optimal Foraging theory; Hydroacoustic data; resource selection;

    Abstract : Foragers in patchy environments need to decide what patches to use and how to allocate their time between them. Optimal foraging theory describes these choices through the relationship between energy expenditure and energy gain. READ MORE

  3. 2. Rättvis vattenfördelning i klimatkrisens tid : en studie om hur Sverige kan ta lärdomar av extrema kontexter

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Author : Veronica Lennefors; Linnéa Saiduddin; [2023]
    Keywords : vattendistribution; vattenhantering; vattenbrist; klimatförändringar; ursprungsbefolkning;

    Abstract : Sverige har hittills varit relativt förskonade från vattenproblematik, men det extrema väder orsakat av klimatförändringarna gör att även vi kan utsättas för bristande tillgångar på färskvatten och de sociala konsekvenser som medföljer. Ett sätt att förbereda oss i kampen mot det förändrade klimatet och dess konsekvenser kan vara att studera extrema kontexter, områden som redan idag visar på resultatet av klimatförändringarna.
