1. Can precommercial thinning be used to create more diversity after planting spruce?
Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreSammanfattning : Mixed forests will harbour other ecosystem services than a planted coniferous monoculture. This study used early results from a long-term experiment to examine if different precommercial thinning treatments can be used to increase diversity in planted stands of Norway spruce (Picea abies) mixed with high densities of natural regeneration of birch (Betula spp. LÄS MER
2. Betesmönster hos älg (Alces alces) vintertid i fjällnära skog : En studie av födoval i relation till trädslagssammansättning och habitat
Kandidat-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)Sammanfattning : Browsing patterns in large herbivorous mammals are complex and decisions regarding food items occur at different levels depending on internal or external factors such as energy requirements and available food sources. A broader understanding of the behavior of animals living in habitats of economic interests for humans enables human exploitation with as little impact as possible on the animals' habitats. LÄS MER
3. Differences and similarities in stand characteristics after prescribed burning and wildfire : implications for conservation of forest biodiversity
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : 1. Wildfires are a natural disturbance in the boreal forests of Fennoscandia and have shaped and formed forests in the past, resulting in very heterogeneous forests containing large amounts of dead and living trees in various age classes. LÄS MER
4. Tree Species Impact on Forest Fire Spread Susceptibility in Sweden
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Klimatförändringar förväntas leda till längre brandperioder och ökad brandrisk. I Sverige, där homogen produktionsskog utgör största delen av landskapet, finns ett behov av bättre förståelse för skogens mottaglighet för bränder för att kunna mildra risker. LÄS MER
5. Scots pine for fika : the role of local moose density in determining browsing damages to pine across commercial forests in Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : By browsing on young Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), moose (Alces alces) can cause significant damage to commercial forests. The National Forest Agency monitors browsing damage and moose faecal pellet groups annually on pre-defined plots throughout Sweden. LÄS MER
