  1. 1. Riparian plant biodiversity and community composition of ditches and straightened streams : identifying key environmental drivers in a boreal forest setting

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Rasmus Staaf; [2024]
    Nyckelord :artificial waterways; riparian zone; novel ecosystems; ; forestry; ditch network maintenance; species richness; hill-diversity; drainage ditches; coarse woody debris; ditch cleaning; ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Modified ecosystems are typically seen as degraded and having no ecological value. In many cases, the modification of the ecosystem was done more than 100 years ago and may have had time to recover and become a refugia for species that were once more common in the landscape.

  3. 2. Dynamic minimum flows in the bypass reach of Juktån : A post-implementation evaluation of the effects on riparian vegetation

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

    Författare :Walter Gezelius Gezelius; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Restoration; Environmental flows; riparian vegetation;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of the paper was to evaluate the effects of the restoration efforts in Juktån on the plant species richness and composition, vegetation zonation and soil composition. The restoration involved implementation of a dynamic flow, in addition to hydro-geomorphological alterations. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Vedlevande skalbaggar 10–20 år efter brand i tallskog : en jämförelse mellan hällmark och produktiv mark

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :KajsaLisa Olsson; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Tallimpediment; biologisk mångfald; vedlevande skalbaggar; naturvårdsbränning; Pinus sylvestris;

    Sammanfattning : The Swedish boreal forests have changed drastically in the last century. Intensive forestry with clear-cuttings and fire-prevention, cause a lack in dead wood diversity and volume. The current research on forests mainly focuses on productive forests and there is a knowledge gap regarding the importance of low-productive forest for biodiversity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Plant-soil feedbacks in boreal tree species

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Författare :Kailey Tentis; [2023]
    Nyckelord :plant-soil feedback; plant economic spectrum; biotic feedback; abiotic feedback; sterilization-inoculation experiment; conspecifics and heterospecifics;

    Sammanfattning : Plant-soil feedback (PSF) is important for understanding how plants influence the composition and abundance of soil biota and nutrients and how this affects plant growth. The plant economic spectrum (PES) also plays a role. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Are large clearcuts the only way to manage forests? : a study of economic performance and deadwood production of various silviculture systems

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Haidi Andersson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :uneven-aged forestry; continuous cover forestry; CCF; clearcut; deadwood; RFM; even-aged forest; Net present value; Heureka;

    Sammanfattning : Our forests are a natural resource which is needed for many purposes. Their importance and different values are expressed in the Swedish legislation, where production and environmental goals are set as equal. To many it is not sufficient, there has been a debate regarding how forests are managed and the practice of clear-cutting for decades. LÄS MER
