  1. 1. Molns inverkan på satellitdetektion av vegetationsbränder i Sverige

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Författare :Marcus Letalick; [2022]
    Nyckelord :clouds; satellite detection; VIIRS; active fires; forest fire; grass fire; FRP; NOAA-20; Suomi-NPP; JPSS; moln; satellitdetektion; VIIRS; skogsbrand; gräsbrand; vegetationsbrand; FRP; NOAA-20; Suomi-NPP; JPSS;

    Sammanfattning : Results are presented from the 2021 test run of active fire detection using the Visual Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument, that is currently onboard the polar satellites Suomi-NPP and NOAA-20. The test is performed by the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency and the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute, in cooperation with local fire departments in Sweden. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Nötkreaturs betningsbeteende på bränt och på obränt naturbete

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Författare :My Strömgren; [2021]
    Nyckelord :betningsbeteende; brand; nötkreatur; naturbete; obränt bete; bränt bete;

    Sammanfattning : Habitats worldwide have undergone changes which have had effects on the living conditions for many species. Some landscapes have opened up due to agriculture, others have changed into fragmented monocultural habitats due to forestation. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The effect of the interplay between fire frequency and grassland structure on tick abundances in the Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park, South Africa

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

    Författare :Thilo Heinecke; [2020]
    Nyckelord :ticks; acari; pyrodiversity; grassland structure; fire ecology; fire frequency; grazing lawn;

    Sammanfattning : Fire in ecology is a very variable factor and its effects are best described as a complex feedback system with other biotic and abiotic factors. These feedback systems need to be understood to enable generalized conclusions about the influence of fire regimes. LÄS MER

  5. 4. How does white rhino respond to fires during dry season?

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

    Författare :Tim Herkenrath; [2019]
    Nyckelord :white rhino; post-fire regrowth; habitat selection; African grazers; megaherbivore;

    Sammanfattning : The white rhino is a megaherbivore grazer that favours the short and nutrient-rich grass on grazing lawns. Since regrowth on lawns requires a certain amount of rainfall, the usage of this food resource is limited to the wet season. During the dry season, white rhinos are able to feed on senescent tall grass. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Understanding Community Resilience: Resilience in the community response to the 14th June 2017 Grenfell Tower fire in London

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Edward Persson; [2019]
    Nyckelord :resilience; community; community resilience; social capital; post-disaster; community based organisations; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Community resilience is a highly relevant topic and the focus of much contemporary research, however it has yet to be distilled down to an exact science. The current thesis applies a theoretical framework for community resilience as an analytical lens when investigating the community response to the Grenfell fire and tragedy of 14th June 2017. LÄS MER
