1. Evaluating modelled natural capital values for planning processes: A case study in Stockholm, Sweden
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : A commonly proposed principle for reducing impact on natural capital within the planning process is the mitigation hierarchy. The mitigation hierarchy means that impacts should primarily be avoided, otherwise minimized, and when this is not possible - restored or compensated according to an equivalency- and proximity principle.

2. Monitoring wetland cover changes during the past two decades within the protected areas of the Sudd wetland in South Sudan using MODIS data
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : The Sudd wetland, situated along the White Nile in the Republic of South Sudan, is recognized internationally for its unique environmental features. The distinctive ecological characteristics have resulted in the creation of numerous nature reserves in efforts to conserve the habitats and ecosystem services provided. LÄS MER
3. The effect of habitat type on farmland bird populations : In Tarnava Mare Natura2000 reserve, Romania
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för ekologi och genetikSammanfattning : Widespread extinction is a critical threat to biodiversity and is largely caused by human overexploitation of habitat and populations. A widely used and hence well studied organism group for indication of biodiversity is birds. LÄS MER
4. Investigating future land use scenarios: consequences for food production and grassland preservation in the steppe biome, Orenburg province of Southwestern Russia
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Stockholm Resilience CentreSammanfattning : Many land systems experience massive ecological pressure due to ongoing land use changes for the increasing demand for food, but also need to sustain essential ecosystem services. Computer-based model scenarios help to anticipate the consequences of different socio-economic future transition pathways for humans and nature and evaluate trade-offs between various demands on land.

5. Good meadows, good farmers? An assessment of the cultural sustainability of an Irish pilot results-oriented agri-environmental scheme
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutetSammanfattning : Agri-environmental schemes [AESs], which pay farmers to manage their land more environmentally sustainably, are the European Union’s primary policy instrument for addressing rural environmental problems. The majority of AESs in Europe are action-oriented (meaning they pay farmers to adhere to specified management prescriptions). LÄS MER
