  1. 1. Influence of structural complexity of the Rumperöd forest on evapotranspiration

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

    Författare :Madeleine Durdek; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Forest structural complexity; evapotranspiration; vapour pressure deficit; eddy covariance; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The influence of Forest Structural Complexity (FSC) on evapotranspiration (ET) was investigated in a mixed forest of Southern Sweden where micrometeorological Eddy Covariance (EC) measurements were conducted for the years 2015 to 2022. For each year, the top 25% of Vapour Pressure Deficit (VPD) were selected to emphasize the response of ET to the driest atmospheric conditions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The Impact of Human Presence on Terrestrial Mammals in Secondary Regenerating Forest of the Peruvian Amazon

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Duncan Pandya; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Neotropics; camera traps; terrestrial mammals; human presence; species richness; diversity index;

    Sammanfattning : Human disturbance is becoming an ever-bigger threat to biodiversity across the globe and should continue to be a field of conservation priority. Urbanisation, research and tourism put unavoidable pressure on the surrounding flora and fauna, therefore we need to gain knowledge on how to reduce future harm. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Staying alive - On the composition of corporate boards and financial distress risk

    C-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för redovisning och finansiering

    Författare :Markus Nilsson; Joel Robling; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Corporate governance; Financial distress; Agency theory; Logistic regression; Board composition;

    Sammanfattning : This study investigates the relationship between corporate governance and financial distress, considering a sample of 237 publicly listed Swedish firms between 2011 and 2021. The two phenomena have been frequently discussed in academia, and in line with prior literature, an agency theory perspective permeates the analysis. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Exploring the Food Security and Dietary Diversity Situation: A Comparative Analysis between Bangladeshi Immigrants Currently Residing in Lund, Sweden and Their Previous Residence in Bangladesh.

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Graduate School

    Författare :Anta Ishmam Chowdhury; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Social Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to compare the food security and dietary diversity status of Bangladeshi immigrants living in Sweden to their position in Bangladesh. Structured surveys were used to collect data from 15 Bangladeshi immigrants, which included demographic information as well as indices of food security and dietary diversity. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Effects of fuel and weather conditions on forest fire behaviour in Southern Sweden in oak dominated forests

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Olga Teresa Wepryk; [2023]
    Nyckelord :forest fire; forest fuel; fire weather; ignition experiments; prescribed burning;

    Sammanfattning : Fire activity is influenced by weather and climate, fuels, ignition agents, and human activities. Fire suppression policy in Sweden resulted in a gradual decrease in the annually burnt areas, changes in fuel loads and a decline in species diversity. LÄS MER
