1. Headfirst into shallow water - Wetland restoration and its contribution to the Habitats Directive
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Växtekologi och evolution; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Located in the borderland between aquatic and terrestrial environments, the wetlands cover a wide spectrum of habitats and enable living standards for a great variety of organisms. Although important habitats, a great extent of the original wetlands have disappeared in Europe and Sweden due to anthropogenic disturbances. LÄS MER
2. Är mossigare vadare gladare? Om vadare i restaureringsområden på två mossar.
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapSammanfattning : Mires have been heavily exploited in southern Sweden. It has impacted waderbirds negatively, especially wooden sandpipers and golden plovers who only breed on mires, but also common snipe and curlew. LÄS MER
3. Modelling the Water Table in a Bog
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapSammanfattning : Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation.

4. The definition of fens and bogs : An international meta-study
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Disagreements on how fens and bogs are defined warrants an evaluation of how researchers classify these habitats. Ongoing work with a new typology for ecosystems creates an urgency to understand the classification in the field. LÄS MER
5. GIS and remote sensing based mapping of microtopography and vegetation composition in a boreal mire complex
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : Small scale variations in mire surface elevation referred to as microtopography are fundamental characteristics of mire ecosystems especially in the boreal region. Microtopography commonly classified into hummocks and hollows play a major role in several ecological, hydrological and biogeochemical processes including vegetation composition and carbon and methane dynamics.
