    Author : Xiaoming Wang; [2023]
    Keywords : boreal forest; conservation; restoration; connectivity; green infrastructure; GIS; Sweden; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Boreal forest landscapes have undergone severe anthropogenic fragmentation and their enormous values concerning, e.g., ecosystem service, biodiversity and culture are hazarded. READ MORE

  3. 2. Recent expansion of the endangered beetle Plagionotus detritus in the greater Stockholm area

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Elin Lönnberg; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Biodiversity is declining worldwide, and the biggest reason for this is habitat destruction. In Sweden one third of all the red listed species belongs in broadleaved deciduous forests. The  most common reason for the endangerment of these species is the destruction of the deciduous forest. READ MORE

  5. 4. Mapping Fire Salamander (Salamandra salamandra) Habitat Suitability in Baden-Württemberg with Multi-Temporal Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 Imagery

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Andreas Eriksson; [2022]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Habitat Suitability; Remote Sensing; Image Classification; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Remote sensing image classification is used in land cover, forest type and tree species classifications but rarely considered for habitat suitability modelling of animal and plant species. It is instead common that land cover products derived from remote sensing data are used in these modelling problems, even though satellite imagery can provide more detailed information. READ MORE

  6. 5. Evaluation of the forest composition in browsed Scots pine plantations

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Carl Noyce; [2022]
    Keywords : browsing damage; forest owners; mera tall; moose; pine regeneration; Södra;

    Abstract : Since the early 2000s browsing damage to Scots pine (Pinus Sylvestris) in the Götaland region of Sweden has been consistently estimated to be 15% per year, peaking at around 25% between 2009-2016, the highest of any region in the country. The Swedish Forest Agency has set a goal of achieving pine damage levels below 5% on average in the long-term, even if higher levels can be accepted in an individual year. READ MORE
