  1. 1. Intresset för lövplantor hos Södra skogsägarnas medlemmar i Oskarströms verksamhetsområde

    University essay from SLU/School for Forest Management

    Author : Anna Eriksson; Sanna Gudmundsson; [2022]
    Keywords : klimatförändringar; återplantering; lövskogsbruk;

    Abstract : Lövskogarna var för 200 – 300 år sedan överexploaterade i södra Sverige och förekommer idag främst i mindre och fragmenterade områden. Efterfrågan på barrsågtimmer från industrierna steg och på de tidigare lövbevuxna markerna planterades istället gran och tall. READ MORE

  2. 2. ICOS Atmospheric Stations: Spatial Characterization of CO2 Footprint Areas and Evaluating the Uncertainties of Modelled CO2 Concentrations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ida Storm; [2020]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; ICOS; Carbon dioxide; Modelling; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The main purpose of this thesis is to present and analyze spatial characteristics of 31 different European atmospheric measurement stations in the ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observation System) station network. The characterization includes quantification of where air arriving at the stations can be expected to have come from, as well as a breakdown of what these areas cover with regards to land cover, point source emissions and population.

  3. 3. 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.

  4. 4. The relative importance of beavers (Castor fiber) and browsers on the recruitment of broad-leaved trees in riparian areas

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Matilda Karlsson; [2019]
    Keywords : beaver; Castor fiber; ungulates; herbivory; broad-leaved; riparian; conservation management;

    Abstract : Managed forest landscapes in Sweden are dominated by boreal coniferous forest and are deficient in broad-leaved trees. Both beavers (Castor fiber) and ungulate browsers prefer broad-leaved trees to conifers, and the interaction between multiple herbivores may have a considerable impact on the recruitment of deciduous trees in riparian areas.

  5. 5. Planering för bevarande av biotopen ädellövskog vid exploatering : med utgångspunkt från träden

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

    Author : Marcus Lundberg; Carl Löfvall; [2019]
    Keywords : biotop; ädellövträd; exploatering; ekosystemtjänster; bevarande;

    Abstract : I och med det större exploateringstrycket på grund av en ökad urbanisering finns det idag risk för att grönytor till total yta minskar för att ge plats åt nya byggnader och infrastruktur. De ekosystemtjänster som grönytorna genererar tenderar således att bortprioriteras till följd av detta. READ MORE
