  1. 1. Non-native plants in mountain ecosystems. An exploration of plant diversity and its response to road disturbance and alien invasion.

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Anderberg Lina; [2023-10-19]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding patterns of invasive plants becomes ever more important as anthropogenic presence continues to facilitate their spread. In mountainous landscapes, cases of establishment by nonnative species have become frequent, despite the environmentally unfavorable conditions for plants less adapted to the harsh climate. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Do OTC warming effects on ecosystem processes depend on moss species identity, precipitation, and moss removal?

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Alexina Brännlund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Experimental warming; Subarctic tundra mosses; Productivity; Ecosystem respiration; Decomposition;

    Sammanfattning : Long-term warming experiments in arctic tundra have resulted in reduced moss cover and increased vascular plant cover. As mosses have a major impact on microclimatic conditions, changes in community composition can potentially alter direct and indirect drivers of productivity and decomposition, which are low in arctic ecosystems.

  4. 3. Effects of climate, soil, and forest structure on specific leaf area of understorey foundation plants

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Sashank Khaniya; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Specific leaf area; understorey vegetation; foundation species; forest structure; climate change;

    Sammanfattning : Forest overstorey's interaction with understorey vegetation is a crucial aspect that impacts the biodiversity and resilience of forest ecosystems. Particularly, the influence of the overstorey on the specific leaf area (SLA) in understorey plants remains poorly understood. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Investigating the response of terrestrial evapotranspiration to droughts in Africa : A combined remote sensing and modeling approach

    Master-uppsats, Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Författare :Yang Foo; [2023]
    Nyckelord :earth observation; terrestrial evapotranspiration; drought; vegetation-climate interactions;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change is posing a significant threat to terrestrial ecosystems worldwide, in part due to the more frequent occurrence of extreme climatic events such as droughts. While the importance of drought impacts on vegetation has been widely recognized, the time-dependent characteristics of drought-induced response remain insufficiently understood. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Evaluating a new hydraulic implementation in LPJ-GUESS for three sites in north Europe

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Carl Holmquist; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; LPJ-GUESS; drought; sensitivity analysis; evapotranspiration; gross primary production; hydraulic parameters; boreal forest.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Drought is projected to increase in frequency and intensity and impacts trees with increased water stress and increased mortality rate. Water stresses can cause hydraulic failure-related mortality or carbon starvation due to tree species having different strategies to deal with water stresses. LÄS MER
