  1. 1. Effects of climate on phenology, flowering, and berry production of boreal forest understory plants

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Författare :Shakhera Akter Shimu; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Climate change; plant phenology; phenological traits; phenology change; cumulative temperature; phenotypic plasticity; genotypic variation;

    Sammanfattning : Climate is changing faster than it was predicted before and consequently its impact is highly visible on many types of ecosystems globally. Effects of changing climate on forests and the environment are leading to threats for all sorts of ecosystems. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Spatial downscaling of gridded soil moisture products using optical and thermal satellite data: the effects of using different vegetation indices

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Tómas Halldórsson Alexander; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; Remote Sensing; Soil moisture; Downscaling; Vegetation index; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Soil moisture (SM) plays an important role in the exchange of heat and water between the surface and atmosphere, impacting water and energy cycles and the climate. Satellite remote sensing offers a global-scale estimation of SM; however, the coarse resolutions of satellite SM products, typically ranging from 25-50 km, are unsuitable for regional analysis.

  3. 3. Correlation between Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and in vitro organic matter digestibility (IVOMD) of reindeer pasture plants : Korrelation mellan Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) och smältbarhet av renbetesväxter i vomvätska in vitro (VOS)

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Författare :Jannica Helmersson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Normalized Difference Vegetation Index; NDVI; in vitro organic matter digestibility; IVOMD; VOS; caribou; Rangifer tarandus; reindeer pasture plants; drone;

    Sammanfattning : Renen livnär sig på många olika betesväxter och den följer växtfenologins utveckling under barmarkssäsongen, vilket resulterar i högkvalitativt foderintag. Levande växtbiomassa kan uppskattas på landskapsnivå genom att använda vegetationsindex som värderar vegetation utifrån spektrala mätningar. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The effect of life history and weather on onset of flowering and length of flowering period of agricultural weeds

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Författare :Amanda Karpaty Wickbom; [2023]
    Nyckelord :global warming; agricultural weeds; first flowering; flowering phenology;

    Sammanfattning : With a warming climate and the usage of monocultures in food production it is possible we may face more issues concerning food insecurity in the future as pollinators struggle to find food in agricultural landscapes. Therefore, it is of value to know whether common agricultural weeds are important sources of food for pollinators. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Optimal foraging in an Arctic herbivore : How does the foraging behaviour of Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) respond to seasonal changes from summer through autumn of the Arctic tundra?

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Författare :Emma Limosa Djurberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :foraging behaviour; phenology; ungulate; Arctic; Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus;

    Sammanfattning : Foraging decisions of large herbivores can be affected by many factors and have great effect on both above- and below-ground ecosystems. Here, I determine to which degree temporal (seasonality), or spatial (habitat) factors influence the foraging behaviour of Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) and asses if small-scale foraging behaviour correlates with an animals’ patch residence time.
