  1. 1. A computational model of metapopulation dynamics and organism-mediated nutrient flow

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Amanda Hansson; [2023-08-07]
    Nyckelord :computational model; population dynamics; metapopulation dynamics; nutrient flow; simulation; spatially explicit; individual-based;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this project was to assess, using in-silico experiments, how different life history char-acteristics, such as age at maturity and dispersal ability of individuals, influence the dynamics of a metapopulation. To achieve this, a novel model of a spatially explicit metapopulation, with organ-ism-mediated nutrient flow between fragmented habitat patches, was implemented by means of computer simulations.

  3. 2. Can urban tree re-inventories inform future species selection? : diameter at breast height as an indicator for tree performance in Malmö municipality’s tree database

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Författare :Hannah Kit Kraynick Braegelmann; [2023]
    Nyckelord :DBH; ; diameter at breast height; tree inventories; tree re-inventories; urban forestry; species selection; tree management;

    Sammanfattning : Using the inventory database of trees for Malmö municipality, Sweden, this study explored the potential of using the diameter at breast height (DBH) measurement in re-inventories, as a decision-making tool for species selection and management in urban forests. With the escalating pressures of urbanization and unpredictable climate change effects, there is an urgent need for urban forest managers to possess reliable tools that can facilitate the selection of resilient tree species capable of thriving in diverse and changing urban contexts.

  4. 3. The experiences of older HIV/AIDS patients : A descriptive literature review

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för vårdvetenskap

    Författare :Jiawen Lu; Xinting Yu; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The number of older people living with HIV/AIDS is increasing year byyear. With the ageing of society and advances in anti-HIV/AIDS treatment programmes,HIV/AIDS infection among older persons (over 45 years of age) is increasing at anunusual and unprecedented rate and is receiving increasing attention.

  5. 4. Stadsträd – i nöd och lust : skillnader i reglerande och stödjande ekosystemtjänster mellan löv- och barrträd i stadsmiljö

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Jennifer Engelbrekt Tchang; Sara Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :ekosystemtjänst; lövträd; barrträd; stadsträd; luftrening; dagvattenhantering; vindskydd; temperaturreglering; kolupptagning; kolinlagring; biologisk mångfald;

    Sammanfattning : Träd har en viktig roll i att klimatanpassa städer genom att leverera ekosystemtjänster. I nordiska städer planteras mest lövträd eftersom det historiskt funnits ett kulturellt motstånd mot barrträd. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Effects of summer peaks on brown trout and Atlantic salmon growth and survival in hydropower-regulated Gullspång River

    Kandidat-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Författare :Oscar Hallberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :hydropeaking; hydropower; fish; salmon; salmo salar; salmo trutta; summer; survival; growth; parr; fry; korttidsreglering; vattenkraft; salmonid; salmo salar; salmo trutta; tillväxt; överlevnad; lax; öring;

    Sammanfattning : Daily demands for electrical power are met through sub-daily release of turbined water in the form of hydropeaking. Hydropeaking’s changes to stream flow are listed as a threat to biodiversity in river ecosystems as it causes rapid habitat alteration such as increased depth and velocity, affecting the species living downstream.
