  1. 1. Relations between tree and habitat characteristics and the epiphytic lichen flora on oak : a case study from Lövön, Bohuslän

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Julia Siegel; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Epiphytic lichens; Tree characteristics; Habitat characteristics; Oak; Biodiversity; Natural values; Light availability;

    Sammanfattning : Oak-rich forests and wooded pastures harbor diverse and distinct epiphytic lichen flora with many rare and threatened species. As these habitats have been subject to a substantial decline and degradation over the past centuries, oak woodlands have progressively come into focus for preservation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Could horse grazing be used to restore abandoned fields? : a comparison of the vegetation between horse pastures and abandoned fields, and an inventory of the effects of grazing- history and intensity

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

    Författare :Jantien Vogel; [2022]
    Nyckelord :abandoned field; grazing; horse pasture; functional traits; species richness; vegetation;

    Sammanfattning : Semi-natural fields, created by traditional land-use systems like low-intensity cattle grazing, have high ecological value due to the occurrence of numerous plant species, and their associated faunal communities. In Sweden, this habitat is threatened by both land-abandonment and agricultural intensification. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The natural pest control potential of different landscapes : mapping the ecosystem service in three regions of Sweden

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Författare :Charlotte Peitz; [2021]
    Nyckelord :natural pest control; natural enemies; landscapes; agricultural diversification; pesticide reduction; mapping; ecosystem service; ecological intensification; agroecology;

    Sammanfattning : Natural pest control describes the process of natural enemies suppressing pests and thus reducing crop damage and stabilizing yields. How well these beneficial arthropod predators and parasitoids can thrive in a landscape is influenced by the land-use types in the vicinity, such as forest patches, pastures, or agricultural fields, and their ability to provide resources.

  4. 4. The potentials of agroforestry systems in Denmark and southern Sweden : a comparative study on farmers’ perceptions and agroforestry-related policies

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Författare :Carolina Yang; [2020]
    Nyckelord :temperate agroforestry; agriculture; forestry; agroecology; farmers’ attitude; Common Agricultural Policy; policy; financial support; Sweden; Denmark;

    Sammanfattning : In the face of climate change, the urgent need for sustainable food systems has brought agroforestry under the spotlight in the Global North, for its provision of ecosystem services. Despite being less known in the Danish and Swedish context, the traditional practice of managing livestock in the semi-natural pastures, similar to the cut-and-carry systems in the tropics, is undeniably a form of agroforestry system.

  5. 5. Bete eller slåtter i naturliga fodermarker : faktorer som påverkar artsammansättningen

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Ebba Hellstrand; [2017]
    Nyckelord :naturbetesmark; bete; slåtter; skötselmetoder; kärlväxter;

    Sammanfattning : Naturbetesmarker är bland de habitat som innehåller flest kärlväxter i världen. Många av de arter som lever i denna typ av mark har blivit sällsynta och hotade. LÄS MER
