  1. 1. Sudetisk lärk – ett alternativ för sydsvenska skogar?

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Ella Bjelkered; [2024]
    Keywords : Lärk; förädling; Larix; klimatförändringar; skogsbruk;

    Abstract : Den svenska skogsbranschen möter betydande utmaningar med de globala klimatförändringarna som hotar framtida råvaruförsörjning. Högst troligtvis bidrar klimatförändringar till ökade stormar och en övergång till varmare och torrare förhållanden. READ MORE

  3. 2. Forest growth under future climate change in the context of bioenergy – case studies of combined heat and power plants in Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Chi Yuen Hui; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography; Climate Change; Ecosystem Modelling; LPJ-GUESS; BECCS; Geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The pressure to achieve net-zero emissions has pushed for new technologies including carbon capture and storage (CCS) based on the combustion of biomass (BECCS). While bioenergy is a relatively mature industry in Sweden, the addition of CCS may increase the demand for local biomass. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effects of climate, soil, and forest structure on specific leaf area of understorey foundation plants

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Sashank Khaniya; [2023]
    Keywords : Specific leaf area; understorey vegetation; foundation species; forest structure; climate change;

    Abstract : Forest overstorey's interaction with understorey vegetation is a crucial aspect that impacts the biodiversity and resilience of forest ecosystems. Particularly, the influence of the overstorey on the specific leaf area (SLA) in understorey plants remains poorly understood. READ MORE
