1. Movement towards socioecological change: The case of Ecosomatics
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för globala studierSammanfattning : Several scholars both within and outside the field of human ecology argue that the perceptual human-nature divide contributes profoundly to patterns of unsustainability and weak sustainability visible in the world today. Deliberately engaging in conscious bodily-felt contact with the natural environment is suggested to uncover appropriate, embodied angles to approaching ecology and the environmental crisis. LÄS MER
2. Dark Ecology: Obscurities Illuminated
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : This study investigates “dark ecology” – an ecological theory formulated by Timothy Morton, based on an object-oriented ontology and claimed to offer a new perspective on how humans can and should coexist with other “objects” in the world in a better, less hostile way. Dark ecology is a critique of both an anthropocentric and a biocentric worldview, aiming to erase the dichotomy between human/nature and subject/object. LÄS MER
3. Privatträdgårdens potential som resurs för gynnande av pollinationssamhällen
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)Sammanfattning : I detta arbete undersöks hotbilden mot de viktigaste pollinatörerna i Sverige, påverkansfaktorer samt vilka handlingsalternativ som finns för privatpersoner med engagemang i frågan. I dagsläget är många viktiga pollinatörer globalt och nationellt hotade, och därmed också de ekosystemtjänster som vi människor drar nytta av dagligen. LÄS MER
4. The effect of the COVID-19 lockdown on the spatial ecology of moose in an area with high recreational activity
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : In diverse landscapes, the coexistence of wildlife habitat requirements and human land use often leads to conflicts, posing challenges for sustainable species management. Recreational activities, especially in sparsely populated areas, frequently disturb wildlife behavior, necessitating a comprehensive assessment of anthropogenic impacts on habitats. LÄS MER
5. Hydraulic Modelling of Eurasian Beaver Structural Modifications: Implications for Evaluating their Contributions to Natural Flood Management in Scotland
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och SamhällssäkerhetSammanfattning : The concurrent climate and biodiversity crises in Scotland necessitate the exploration of ecosystem-based adaptation to simultaneously address increased flood risk and the loss of native species. This research investigated the contributions of Eurasian beaver reintroductions to natural flood management in Scotland. LÄS MER
