1. 1. Climate change impacts on water resources of the Ganges : Suitable adaptation options for agriculture in the Indian-Himalayan region

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Industriell ekologi

   Författare :Hedvig Winther; [2017]
   Nyckelord :Climate change; water flows; Indian-Himalayan region; Ganges; adaptation; hydro-climatic modelling; stakeholder participatory methods; Klimatförändringar; vattenflöden; Indiska Himalaya; Ganges; anpassning; hydroklimatisk modellering; intressentdeltagande metoder;

   Sammanfattning : Climate change is affecting several environmental factors and together with socio-economic changes put high pressure on water resources. Climate change manifest itself through increasing temperatures and changes in precipitation patterns and intensities, with knock-on effects on hydrologically-relevant parameters such as water flows, evapotranspiration rates, glacial melt etcetera, all of which have already been observed in the recent past and are predicted to continue in the future.

3. 2. Low heritability-high variance controversy for dairy cattle disease traits

   Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

   Författare :Maja Winther Iversen; [2014]
   Nyckelord :coefficient of variation; genetic variance; health traits; heritability; progeny groups;

   Sammanfattning : Traits with low heritability estimates such as health and fertility are often assumed to have low genetic variance. However, the heritability is a ratio of additive genetic variance over all variance, and thus, the genetic variation of these traits may only be proportionally small. LÄS MER
