  1. 11. 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

  3. 12. THE INFLUENCE OF TUNDRA VEGETATION ON SOIL TEMPERATURES

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Edith Aspelin; [2022-09-28]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The arctic has experienced more rapid global warming and is more sensitive to temperature changes compared with the rest of the world. We can already see how vegetation distributed across the arctic tundra has changed in composition, height, and abundance. READ MORE

  4. 13. Evaluation of the variation in albedo over snow-covered forest in Northern Sweden and Finland

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Klara Hugosson; [2022-05-20]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The effect of albedo variability induced by meteorological parameters in snow-covered forested areas at local scale is poorly known. Few meteorological stations measure albedo, even though the effect on albedo caused by land use changes is well known. READ MORE

  5. 14. Trädkronstäckning i urbana miljöer : en fallstudie av Uppsala tätorts trädkronstäckning

  6. 15. 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
