6. Wave Damping by Vegetation at Bunkeflo Salt Meadows - Applying an empirical model based on plant biomass
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresursläraSammanfattning : Future sea level rise due to climate change increases the risk of coastal flooding and thus necessitates the building of dikes and other protective structures. Coastal vegetation can reduce the impact of waves on such structures by dissipating wave energy and hence reduce incoming wave heights. LÄS MER
7. Är Sveriges områdesskydd klimatanpassat? : En geografisk analys över hur mycket av Sveriges skyddade natur som påverkas vid en havsnivåhöjning.
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskapSammanfattning : På grund av klimatförändringarna och den globala uppvärmningen sker en pågående havsnivåhöjning. IPCC har i sina klimatscenarier kommit fram till att havet förväntas stiga mellan 28 cm och 98 cm till år 2100, vilket kommer att leda till stora konsekvenser för människa och samhälle. LÄS MER
8. Importance of Fucus vesiculosus (bladderwrack) for coastal fish communities in the Baltic Sea
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och botanikSammanfattning : Within temperate coastal seascapes, macroalgae provide habitats for different organisms such as invertebrates and fish. In analogy to seagrass meadows, macroalgae beds are known for their importance as fish nurseries. LÄS MER
9. Diving into Blue Carbon : A Review on Carbon Sequestration by Mangrove Forests, Seagrass Meadows and Salt Marshes, and Their Capacity to Act as Global Carbon Sinks
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : During the last decade, the academic interest for Earth’s natural carbon sinks and their role concerning climate change has increased. Today, many scientists around the world are trying to calculate different ecosystem’s potential to sequester and store carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. LÄS MER
10. The use of environmental DNA (eDNA) in biological monitoring of the Natterjack toad (Epidalea calamita)
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i biologiSammanfattning : Environmental DNA (eDNA) is a promising new tool in the field of conservation management, which can contribute to non-destructive species determination as well as improved data on species occurrence. Still, it is important to gain knowledge on how eDNA works compared to conventional monitoring methods in order to evaluate the detection efficiency. LÄS MER
