  1. 6. Evaluating vegetation carbon storage by primary forests in Sweden using LPJ-GUESS

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

    Författare :Sacha van der Vleuten; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Carbon storage; LPJ-GUESS; Primary forests; Sweden; Natural forests; Potential natural vegetation; Dynamic vegetation model; Model optimization; LPJ-GUESS evaluation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past 200 years, the structure of forests in Sweden has changed drastically, with forestry becoming the dominant land use. This has led to the loss of primary forests, which has major impacts on different ecosystem services, including carbon storage. LÄS MER

  2. 7. The land carbon sink of Lithuanian forests in the light of climate change: A model approach

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

    Författare :Patricija Marijauskaite; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Geography; Physical geography; Ecosystem analysis; Ecosystem modelling; LPJ-GUESS; Climate change; Forest sequestration; Land carbon sink; Norway spruce; Scot s pine; Silver birch; monoculture; silviculture; NPP; NBP; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Forests form the backbone of the European terrestrial carbon sink (State Forest Service & Ministry of Environment, 2018). As the European Union (EU) strives to become climate neutral by 2050, forests are accounted for the natural carbon absorption mechanism (European Commission, n.d.). LÄS MER

  3. 8. Tundra carbon cycling in relation to sea-ice decline in a warming Arctic

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

    Författare :Juliane Glinski; [2022]
    Nyckelord :sea-ice decline; warming Arctic; earlier growing season; arctic tundra; heterotrophic and autotrophic respiration; climate warming; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : We set out to investigate whether arctic tundra acted as a sink or source of carbon dioxide (CO2) between 1980-2014 and to relate changes in the net carbon balance to Arctic sea-ice decline. We want to understand how climate change and arctic warming influence arctic carbon cycling. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Testing the potential to evaluate vegetation optical depth with ecosystem water dynamics in a temperate forest

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

    Författare :Ainahu Abdul Hamid; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Physical geography; Ecosystem analysis; Vegetation optical depth; Temperate Forest; Climate; LPJ-GUESS; Evapotranspiration; Leaf water potential; Isohydricity; Hydraulic failure; Carbon starvation; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Warming trends have been associated with drought which induces and heightens agents and factors that cause tree mortality. Remotely sensed observations are increasingly being used in vegetation studies and are obtained from Earth observation satellites. LÄS MER

  5. 10. A detailed study on Amazon Forest structure and mortality rates through LPJ-GUESS vegetation model

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

    Författare :Sara Mazzuoli; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Amazon s Forest; LPJ-GUESS; simulation; TEAM-NETWORK; dynamic vegetation model; observation; mortality; allometry; tree stand structure; biomass; cohort; PFTs; plant functional types; NPP; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Nowadays it has become relevant for scientists to understand the impact of tropical forest structure on the Global Carbon Cycle. Dynamic vegetation models have been developed to pursue this issue, specifically by improving algorithms that could analyze the allometry, biomass content and mortality rate of each singular simulated plant individual and how this responds to climate change, management and rising CO2 concentrations.
