1. Embryonal utveckling hos grodor med dygnsgrader som förklarande faktor
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EcologySammanfattning : Dygnsgrader (ºD) används för att förklara den fysiologiska tiden som krävs för att uppnå olika livsstadier. Det används för fisk för att förklara den embryonala utvecklingen, växter för att uppnå t.ex. blomning och för insekter för att förklara kläckningsmönster. LÄS MER
2. Modelling maize (Zea Mays L.) phenology seasonal forecast data
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Agriculture is an essential economic activity which sustains the livelihood of millions of people around the world. Maize is one of the most grown, consumed and traded cereals in the world mostly because of its adaptability to varied environmental conditions. LÄS MER
3. Testing the robustness of the Plant Phenology Index to changes in temperature
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Traditional vegetation indices have long encountered a problem of saturating at high biomass levels. A newly formulated vegetation index, the Plant Phenology Index (PPI), which has a near linear relationship with canopy green leaf area index (LAI) is tested in this study against temperature at 12 sites across Sweden.

4. The influence of climate and land cover on wildfire patterns in the conterminous United States
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : The occurrence of wildfires is greatly dependent on an ecoregions typical climate and land cover type. To investigate whether climate or land cover primarily lead to wildfires in the conterminous United States, wildfire events from 1999- 2010 are analyzed. Wildfires are divided into years and eco-divisions, a sub-form of ecoregions. LÄS MER
5. Sensory profiling of Swedish white wines and a contextual analysis of Swedish viticulture
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Plant Breeding (from 130101)Sammanfattning : The aim of the study is twofold, to generate a sensory profile of Swedish wine today and to investigate the opinion of both wine producers and wine experts on viticulture in Sweden and wine from grapes grown in Sweden, achieved through a contextual analysis comprising a literature study and interviews with wine producers in Sweden and Denmark and wine experts from Sweden and Germany, and a sensory analysis at the company Ipsos. ‘Mixed methods’ was the chosen research strategy as the semi-structured interviews gave qualitative results and the sensory analysis would give quantitative results displayed as spider charts.
