  1. 1. Wildfire dynamics, local people’s fire use and underlying factors for wildfires at Liwale District in Southern Tanzania

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Fabian Balele; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Wildfires; Miombo woodlands; Local people; Qualitative research; Focus Group Discussion; Anthropogenic activities;

    Sammanfattning : Fire causes positive effects on the ecosystem if appropriately managed. Unmanaged fire may, however, rather be detrimental.

  2. 2. Tree diversity and edge effects in Nhamacoa miombo forest, Mozambique

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Anton Gårdman; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Edge effect; Miombo; Forest fragmentation; Deforestation; Mozambique; Habitat fragmentation; Tree diversity;

    Sammanfattning : Mozambique is to fifty percent covered by forest, most of which belongs to the biodiverse miombo woodlands. The last decades, Mozambique has been suffering from rapid deforestation. The once continuous forest cover has turned into a mosaic of forest patches, farmland, settlements etc. The remaining forest patches are in many cases very isolated. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Water infiltration under different land use in miombo woodlands outside Morogoro, Tanzania

    L3-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Helena Nord; [2008]
