  1. 1. On linear Reaction-Diffusion systems and Network Controllability

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Author : Rebecka Aulin; Felicia Hage; [2023]
    Keywords : Turing s model of morphogenesis; FDM; FEM; Controllability; Minimal Control; Least Energy Control;

    Abstract : In 1952 Alan Turing published his paper "The Chemical Basis of Morphogenesis", which described a model for how naturally occurring patterns, such as the stripes of a zebra and the spots of a leopard, can arise from a spatially homogeneous steady state through diffusion. Turing suggested that the concentration of the substances producing the patterns is determined by the reaction kinetics, how the substances interact, and diffusion. READ MORE

  4. 3. Maternal behaviour of the snow leopard (Panthera uncia) : Den use, post-denning behaviour, position success rate, home range size and daily movement

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Olivia Pålsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Cub development; daily movement; den; den use; denning behaviours; home range size; Panthera uncia; position success rate; post-denning; reproductive behaviours; snow leopard;

    Abstract : Knowledge about a species’ reproductive parameters such as breeding behaviours is a vital building block for essential conservation actions, especially for endangered species. Despite this, there is a considerable knowledge gap about the snow leopard (Panthera uncia) maternal behaviours, as well as the timing of den independence for the cubs. READ MORE

  5. 4. Vilka faktorer påverkar avelsarbetet med snöleoparder i europeiska djurparker?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Mattias Johansson; [2021]
    Keywords : snöleopard; mortalitet; avelsarbete;

    Abstract : Snöleoparden (Panthera uncia) har länge ansetts hotad i det vilda, både av tjuvjakt, men på senare tid även av habitatförlust från miljöförändringar och människopåverkan. Sedan slutet av1900-talet så har det funnits ett internationellt samarbete i avelsrutiner, och majoriteten av hållarna utanför kinesiska fastlandet är med i samma stambok för att se till att hålla arten genetiskt diversifierad.
