  1. 1. Trädplantering i den hårdgjorda staden : utmaningar och lösningsalternativ

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

    Författare :Ingela Carlgren; [2024]
    Nyckelord :gatuträd; urbana träd; trädplantering; gatumiljö; urban jord; kompaktering; skelettjord; makadamsubstrat; rotceller; suspended pavement;

    Sammanfattning : Träd är viktiga delar av våra städer. De bidrar med många ekosystemtjänster, som klimatreglering, dagvattenhantering och positiva hälsoeffekter. De är också viktiga identitetsskapande element. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Vibrational signals as indicators of soil fauna health? : A novel approach to environmental monitoring of ants

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

    Författare :Joel Fransson Forsberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Vibrations; Formica ants; Vibrometer; Vibrational signals; Imidacloprid; Before-After-Control-Impact;

    Sammanfattning : Soil fauna provides processes of crucial importance for ecosystem functions, but our ability to observe their actions often depend on destructive methods where the integrity of the studied environment (the soil) is compromised. In this study, I develop and test a new generation of environmental monitoring tools that utilize vibrations made by soil macrofauna to inform about their performance and health. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Quality of Spent Mushroom Compost Amended with Organic Material- Effect on Nutrient Content and Plant Growth

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Författare :Rasha Kamel; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Apple Waste; Wood Chips; Microbial Content; pH; Pseudomonas; General Bacterial Flora; General Fungal Flora; Electrical Conductivity; Nutrient Content; Bulk Density; Porosity; Water Holding Capacity;

    Sammanfattning : Peat, as a non-renewable growing media, poses environmental concerns due to extraction and decomposition processes, leading to increased greenhouse gas emissions. Alternatives growing media with potential to replace or reduce the use of peat are of great need. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The effects of management practices and environmental variables on the biodiversity of Nardus grasslands in the national park Hohe Tauern, Austria

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Rebecca Paulina Dörner; [2023]
    Nyckelord :biodiversity; Nardus stricta; Nardus grassland; national park Hohe Tauern; East Tyrol; alpine pastures;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction. A large part of the biodiversity of the Alps is linked to an interaction between the natural environment and traditional land-use practices. This study focuses on the priority habitat type of species rich Nardus grasslands (Natura 2000 Code 6230*), which is endangered, but continues to thrive in extensively managed subalpine pastures.

  5. 5. Effects of soil factors on pioneer bryophyte species composition

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i biologi

    Författare :Dora Mijić; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Bryophytes play a significant role in various ecological processes, including soil succession and colonization after disturbances. Although they are commonly believed to take up nutrients from soil solutions rather than the soil itself, the influence of soil on their growth and distribution is evident from previous studies.
