    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Marjolein Pijper; [2023]
    Keywords : acoustic monitoring; forest restoration; dawn chorus; avian singing; bird monitoring; automatic recognition;

    Abstract : Monitoring of forest restoration efforts is essential to ensure healthy, self-sustaining tropical rainforests. Passive acoustic monitoring is used to monitor vocal activity of birds, which play a key role in forest ecosystems as seed dispersers. READ MORE

    Author : Andreas Sund; [2022]
    Keywords : arctic charr; benthic invertebrates; polymorphism;

    Abstract : Many fish populations in the north have divided into coexisting ecotypes that differ in body size.
