  1. 1. Morphological variation in the hadrosauroid dentary

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Fredrik Söderblom; [2017]
    Keywords : Hadrosauroidea; dentary; morphometric; heterochrony; peramorphosis; mastication; Hadrosauroidea; dentärben; morfometrisk; heterokroni; peramorfos; tugga;

    Abstract : The near global success reached by hadrosaurid dinosaurs during the Cretaceous has been attributed to their ability to masticate (chew). This behavior is more commonly recognized as a mammalian adaptation and, as a result, its occurrence in a non-mammalian lineage should be accompanied with several evolutionary modifications associated with food collection and processing.

  2. 2. Neck mobility, Grazing habits, and intraspecific combat behaviour in the Giant Pleistocene horned Turtle Meiolania Platyceps

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Andréas Jannel; [2015]
    Keywords : Testudinata; neck retraction; cervical vertebrae; Photogrammetry; 3D modelling; Testudinata; rétraction du cou; vertèbres cervicales; Photogrammétrie; Modélisation 3D; Testudinata; hals indragning; halskotor; fotogrammetri; 3D-modellering;

    Abstract : Meiolania platyceps is the stratigraphically youngest, and osteologically best-known members of the enigmatic Paleogene-Holocene testudinatan clade Meiolaniidae. This study generated digital reconstructions of intervertebral mobility using the complete cervical series of M. READ MORE

  3. 3. Within-canopy sesquiterpene ozonolysis in Amazonia

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Ana Maria Yáñez Serrano; [2011]
    Keywords : sesquiterpenes; ozonolysis; ozone; Amazon; oxidation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: En mycket reaktiv spårgas i Amazonas. Växter släpper ut flyktiga organiska ämnen, som är mycket viktiga eftersom de släpps ut i stora mängder och påverkar tillverkningen av aerosoler, förändrar luftkvaliteten och fungerar som kommunikation mellan växter och herbivorer.

  4. 4. Restoration criteria on dolomite quarries on "Sierra de Mijas" mountain range

    University essay from Sektionen för ekonomi och teknik (SET)

    Author : Alberto Jr Jimenez; [2007]
    Keywords : dolomitic outcrops; quarry restoration; botanic value; vegetation serie;

    Abstract : There are many dolomitic outcrops at Rondean sector (into the biogeographical Betic Province). Most of them, involve floral richness and vegetal endemic species due to its calcareous origin. These diverse organisms build peculiar plant communities. They can survive in extreme conditions as drought and high levels of Mg2+ cation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Evaluation of a conceptual, semi-distributed hydrological model : a case study of Hörbyån

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Susanne Kolmert; [1998]
    Keywords : geografi; naturgeografi; evaluation; hydrological model; Hörbyån; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Research in hydrological modelling has been directed towards the development of more complex models that may consider the spatial and temporal variations of meteorological and physical characteristics of a drainage basin. The aim with this study was to evaluate the HBV-model (Hydrologiska Byråns Vattenavdelning), a conceptual, semi-distributed hydrological model. READ MORE
