  1. 6. Comparison of Gap-Cutting and Clear-cutting Management and Their Ecosystem Services : a Simulation Study

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Mary Motunrayo Ogunleye; [2023]
    Keywords : ecosystem services; gap-cut management; Scots pine; clear-cut; forest management;

    Abstract : Forests as a natural ecosystem provide many functions and services that contribute to livelihood. Moreover, to provide multifaceted services, the forest management strategy employed is vital in establishing desired ecosystem services. READ MORE

  2. 7. Forest regeneration and edge effects : an ecophysiological analysis after gap-cutting

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Tyra Tornberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Regeneration; Edge effects; Edge zone; Continuous cover forestry; Gap-cutting; Isotope analysis; 15N; Nitrogen; Carbon;

    Abstract : As continuous cover forestry is an ongoing topic in todays forest debate, questions are raised about eventual issues connected to the management. It is known that seedling performance can be poor near the edge of harvested areas, and around retained trees. This is a critical issue in transitioning toward continuous cover forestry. READ MORE

  3. 8. Luckhuggning, bränning och skalbaggar restaureringsåtgärdernas påverkan på de rödlistade skalbaggsarterna i Sverige

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Katja Frostgård; Gustaf Lydén; [2023]
    Keywords : artrikedom; abundans; biodiversitet; restaurering; naturvårdsbränning; luckhuggning; rödlistade arter; skalbaggar;

    Abstract : Det skogsbruk som idag bedrivs på majoritet av den svenska skogsmarken har förändrat skogens struktur och variation; skogens heterogenitet har minskat. Detta påverkar en del av de skogslevande arterna negativt, och har bidragit till att många arter har minskat i sin utbredning och nu är rödlistade. READ MORE

  4. 9. Effects of Forest Ditch Cleaning on Surface Water Quality

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and Assessment

    Author : Emeli Arvidsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ditch cleaning; forest clear-cut; water quality; water chemistry;

    Abstract : Ditch cleaning (DC) is recommended by authorities to Swedish landowners to maintain forest productivity after forest harvest by lowering groundwater tables of catchment soils. Knowledge regarding the impact of this practice on surface water quality is limited, and results from previous research vary. READ MORE

  5. 10. Characterization of Bi-incorporated InSb(111)A/B Surfaces : An STM and XPS Study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Shengpeng Huang; [2023]
    Keywords : indium antimonide; surface reconstructions; bismuth deposition; scanning tunneling microscopy; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In recent years, III-V semiconductor materials have received increasing attention due to their admirable electronic properties like direct tunable bandgaps and high charge carrier mobility. Indium Antimonide (InSb) possesses the largest electron mobility among III-V materials and is promising for infrared detectors, high-speed field effect transistors, and spintronics. READ MORE
