1. Red green house
Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/ArkitekturSammanfattning : Lista Red Green HouseIn Lista's greenhouse, you can get inspiration all year round. Here you wander from the fragrant grace of the Mediterranean through the desert to the moist rainforest and the tropical department. In addition there are useful plants such as coffee, tea and cocoa as well as salad plants. LÄS MER
2. Evaluating the ability of LPJ-GUESS to simulate the tree size structures of tropical forests
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Tropical forests are of great importance to all living-beings due to their high biodiversity and the valu-able resources, such as food and fuel, they provide. In addition, tropical trees sequester a high amount of carbon and consequently over half of the global forest carbon stock can be found in the tropics. LÄS MER
3. Biological Soil Invertebrate Activity in a Tropical Rainforest : A comparison of soil invertebrate activity in two tropical rain forests in Borneo
L3-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaperSammanfattning : Logging of tropical forests is increasing worldwide. Logging alters the forest conditions such as temperature, soil water content and litter input into the soil. This study explored how soil invertebrate activity in Borneo differs between pristine forests and two secondary forests, with 10 and 40 years of recovery time since the last logging. LÄS MER
4. Differences in forest structure in relation to energy-efficient cookstoves in the Kakamega forest, Kenya
Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/BiologiSammanfattning : Tropical forests are amongst the most important ecosystems in the world. It is also the biome estimated to experience the most rapid losses of habitats in the next 50 years, mainly due to anthropogenic exploitation. The Kakamega forest, western Kenya, is important both for conservation and human livelihood and is essential for peoples’ survival. LÄS MER
5. Above- and belowground carbon stocks and effects of enrichment planting in a tropical secondary lowland dipterocarp rainforest
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : The intact tropical rainforests are rapidly being degraded and subsequently converted to other land uses, with associated greenhouse gas emissions and loss of biodiversity. It is imperative that the effects of such conversions and large-scale restoration efforts on forest structure and ecosystem services are understood to effectively be able to counteract the negative consequences of deforestation and forest degradation.
