1. If a Tree Falls in the Forest - Three Interventions in the Swedish Forest to Come
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, KTH/ArkitekturSammanfattning : Our thesis project consists of three architectural interventions: The Mushroom, The Gnat and The Snake, fitting into a vision of a Swedish forest managed in a more sustainable way. A future in which the practice of clear-felling has been abandoned in favor of alternative methods falling under the umbrella term Continuous Cover Forestry (CCF). LÄS MER
2. Managing diversity : the forest development types as a framework for management within mixed forest systems
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)Sammanfattning : The demand for both biodiversity and recreational forests is increasing. Management methods under the umbrella term Close-to-Nature management, which aims to incorporate natural successional patterns and disturbances, is considered preferable to traditional forest management methods in terms of both recreational and ecological values (Wimberly et al. LÄS MER
3. Turning Night into Day : Does Skyglow affect Bat Activity and Timing of Emergence?
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografiSammanfattning : Artificial brightness of the night sky caused by the backscatter of artificial light in the atmosphere is a consequence of ongoing urbanization. Skyglow covers 88 % of Europe’s surface and poses significant threats to biodiversity. Extensive research on responses of bats to direct light pollution already revealed significant impacts. LÄS MER
4. FOREST LANDSCAPE STRUCTURE OF CAPERCAILLIE (TETRAO UROGALLUS) LEK SITES IN NORTHERN SWEDEN : Analysis of lek site characteristics
Kandidat-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapSammanfattning : The purpose of this study is to analyze which variables influence the capercaillie’s (Tetrao urogallus) selection of lek sites in northern Sweden by using remote sensing data. The lek site is a crucial area for the species’ reproductive success. LÄS MER
5. Fungal pigmentation responses to microclimatic variables in isolated forest patches in Northern Sweden
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Investigating functional traits is an important tool for understanding fungal communities, yet ecological functions of fungal pigmentation remain poorly investigated. Recent studies support the thermal-melanism hypothesis for fungal color lightness in relation to macroclimate, but it remains unclear if microclimate also affects fungal pigmentation. LÄS MER
