  1. 6. Exploring the factors affecting tree establishment after wildfire in a boreal forest in Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Robert Pim; [2023]
    Keywords : tree regeneration; tree establishment; wildfire; boreal forests; disturbance; sapling regeneration; generalized linear mixed models;

    Abstract : The factors affecting tree establishment in boreal forests after fire will help determine the community composition of the regenerating forest. These may have large consequences on the community dynamics for years after the fire disturbance. READ MORE

  3. 7. Improving Pith Detection and Automated Log Identification using AI

  6. 10. Fungal pigmentation responses to microclimatic variables in isolated forest patches in Northern Sweden

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Karl Soler Kinnerbäck; [2023]
    Keywords : fungal ecology; mycology; functional traits; communities; pigmentation; CIELAB; lightness; microclimate; polypores;

    Abstract : Investigating functional traits is an important tool for understanding fungal communities, yet ecological functions of fungal pigmentation remain poorly investigated. Recent studies support the thermal-melanism hypothesis for fungal color lightness in relation to macroclimate, but it remains unclear if microclimate also affects fungal pigmentation. READ MORE
