  1. 1. Riparian vegetation ecology : an observational study into the effects of forest management on understory vegetation communities along boreal headwaters

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Ruben Jonathan Baan Hofman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :riparian forest; forest management; understory vegetation; headwater streams; community ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Riparian forests along headwater streams have long been recognized for their role as an interface between the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem. The over- and understory vegetation performs essential ecological and biochemical functions, which are important for stream functions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Tree growth and field vegetation in forest edge zones on a property in southeast Sweden

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för skog och träteknik (SOT)

    Författare :Pieter van Tongeren; [2023]
    Nyckelord :tree growth; diversity; field vegetation; edge zones; edge effect;

    Sammanfattning : Summary  In the 1990s a new way of thinking about forestry started. One of the effects of the changing silvicultural practices was that the size of clearcuts became smaller. As the felling areas were reduced in size, the areas where young and older forest meet grew, with this also the occurrence of edge zones increased. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Forest Aboveground Biomass Monitoring in Southern Sweden Using Random Forest Modelwith Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and LiDAR Data

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Samhällsbyggnad

    Författare :Wan Ni Lin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Aboveground biomass; Sentinel-1; Sentinel-2; LiDAR; random forest; GEE;

    Sammanfattning : Monitoring carbon stock has emerged as a critical environmental problem among several worldwide organizations and collaborations in the context of global warming and climate change. This study seeks to provide a remote sensing solution based on three types of data, to explore the feasibility and reliability of estimating aboveground biomass (AGB) in order to improve the efficiency of monitoring carbon stock.

  5. 4. Mapping edge vegetation in connection to beech forest to locate potential habitats for red-listed beetles in Scania, Sweden

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Lovisa Rosenquist Ohlsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :forest; temperate broadleaved forest; beech; biodiversity; edge vegetation; southern Sweden; Scania; beetles; Natura 2000; Fagus sylvatica; Stictoleptura scutellata; Ischnomera sanguinicollis; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The number of species classified as red-listed has increased by 11% between 2015 and 2020, with beetles and butterflies being especially affected. Among these are the vulnerable longhorned beetle (Stictoleptura scutellata) and the endangered false blister beetle (Ischnomera sanguinicollis). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Using the AudioMoth - a novel passive acoustic monitoring technology - to monitor bat diversity in a rewilded landscape

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Koen Pronk; [2022]
    Nyckelord :passive acoustic monitoring; bioindicator; chiroptera; audioMoth; trophic rewilding;

    Sammanfattning : Ecosystem restoration through the reintroduction of grazers is gaining interest across Europe. Large herbivores are associated with landscape heterogeneity, restoration of trophic cascades and biodiversity. LÄS MER
