1. The bzzzt of frirends. Interspecific competition in Arctic plants for pollination services.
Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : The Arctic has a harsh environment that is challenging for the flora and fauna that inhabits the region. The ruling abiotic factors of the region results is a low species richness that creates a potential challenge for the region’s plant species. LÄS MER
2. Födovalspreferenser hos en arktisk specialist : vad föredrar Gynaephora groenlandica (Lepidoptera:Erebidae) att äta på Wrangelön?
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : The Arctic tundra has many unexplored areas. Due to the harsh climate and the difficult accessibility, there is a lack of knowledge about the different species that live under these circumstances. Herbivores in this environment have a large effect on the plant community, one of these is the moth butterfly larva Gynaephora groenlandica. LÄS MER
3. Åsars bildning och modellering av isälvar under äldre och yngre Dryas i Svealand
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Sveriges geomorfologi har till största del bildats under den senaste glaciationens erosion och depositions processer. Vid denna glaciations avsmältning rann smältvattnet bort från glaciären i isälvarna genom tunnlar under inlandsisen. LÄS MER
4. Impactites from the Hiawatha crater, North-West Greenland
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaperSammanfattning : The recent discovery of the 31-km-wide Hiawatha impact crater has raised unanswered questions about its age, impactor and highly unusual organic carbon component. Previous research suggests a fractionated iron meteorite impactor, a probable maximum 3–2.4 Ma impact age and a possible Younger Dryas impact age. LÄS MER
5. Reforestation in the far north : comparing effects of the native tree species Betula pubescens and the non-native Pinus contorta in Iceland
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : The use of non-native tree species in forestry is both praised and questioned. Foresters have often promoted their use, mainly because of higher growth rates, resilience to pests and diseases and improved survival under harsh conditions. LÄS MER
