  1. 1. Identification of restoration hotspots in landscape-scale green infrastructure planning based on model-predicted connectivity forest

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

    Författare :Xiaoming Wang; [2023]
    Nyckelord :boreal forest; conservation; restoration; connectivity; green infrastructure; GIS; Sweden; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Boreal forest landscapes have undergone severe anthropogenic fragmentation and their enormous values concerning, e.g., ecosystem service, biodiversity and culture are hazarded. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The assessment of ecosystem services provided by forest edge effects on fields in a fragmented Swedish agricultural landscape : a methodological framework

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Crop Production Ecology

    Författare :Juliette Nguyen; [2022]
    Nyckelord :carbon sequestration; cropping systems; DSSAT; ecosystem services; edge effect; food production; landscape diversification; landscape fragmentation; soil heterogeneity; soil organic carbon; spatial variability; total nitrogen; yield;

    Sammanfattning : Agricultural expansion, prompted by increasing global food demand, has fragmented, simplified, and homogenized the landscape in the last decades. The resilience and sustainability of croplands are at stake, resulting in a hight vulnerability to climate change, and having major impacts on environmental protection, biodiversity preservation and food security.

  4. 3. Ljusföroreningars inverkan på nattlig pollinering : En paraplygranskning av mörkrets betydelse vid analys av urbana ekosystemtjänster

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Författare :Maria Novik; [2022]
    Nyckelord :light pollution; nocturnal; cascade; pollination; ecosystem services; urban planning; green infrastructure; ljusföroreningar; natt; kaskad; pollinering; ekosystemtjänster; stadsplanering; grön infrastruktur;

    Sammanfattning : Outdoor artificial light at night (ALAN) is raising concern as a possible cause of the loss of insect diversity. Due to a diurnal bias in standard methods in environmental monitoring and urban ecosystem service assessments, the issue has remained in the dark and especially relevant for nocturnal pollination, which is less well known.

  5. 4. Forest structure of Dalby Söderskog National Park : patterns of carbon storage in living and dead trees

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Kumetra Achuthan; [2021]
    Nyckelord :ash dieback disease; deadwood; Dutch elm disease; living tree volume; coarse woody debris; carbon stock and storage; pest invasions; temperate mixed broadleaved forest;

    Sammanfattning : Carbon sequestration and storage is an ecosystem service supplied by forests, and is of increasing importance in the context of mitigation of global climate change. Forest pest invasions, driven primarily by globalizations, represent a risk to the efficiency of carbon sequestration as they may greatly reduce the amount of the living biomass in forests. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Biodiversity, Ecosystem Services and the Banking Industry - Exploring the Scale of Interdependency and Potential Risks

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Jan-Niklas Heintze; [2021]
    Nyckelord :BES; Ecosystem Services; Biodiversity loss; Banks; Risk assessment; Equity portfolio; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : Biodiversity loss and ecosystem service (BES) degradation are translating into different risks for financial institutions which are not accounted for in a sufficient and adequate manner. Being a topic outside its core expertise and foci, the financial sector is lacking assessment methodologies for BES risks. LÄS MER
