  1. 11. Förekomst och spridning av hänglavar från äldre skogar till unga tidigare avverkade områden i Västerbottens inland

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

    Författare :Emma Maksimova; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Lichens; Dispersal; Picea abies; Pinus sylvestris; Epiphytic; Hair lichens; Alectoria; Bryoria; Usnea;

    Sammanfattning : The Swedish forestry and the use of clearcutting models has resulted in great losses of older forests in Sweden, resulting in several species being affected negatively. Hair lichens are important organisms that are providing several ecological functions in forest ecosystems and are declining due to being associated with older forests with high continuity. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Lead Concentrations in Indoor Dust : Differences Between Indoor Shooting Ranges and Assumed Non-Lead Contaminated Sites

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

    Författare :Lena Brolin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Ammunition; environmentally friendly ammunition; lead; lead at indoor shooting ranges; lead exposure.;

    Sammanfattning : A projectile which missed its target and falls into the bullet trap at the end of the shooting range might not be viewed as dangerous. Yet, hazardous fumes and fine metal fragments from the bullet might contaminate the users of the shooting range. LÄS MER

  3. 13. 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

  4. 14. Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) morphological variation in the Massif Central region, France. : A study of differences in traits between populations.

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

    Författare :Amanda Johansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Scots Pine (P. sylvestris L.) has one of the largest distributions among trees in Eurasia. It is important both economically and ecologically, with a dominant role in forests ecosystems. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Detecting Pollutants Using Vibrations : Laser Doppler Vibrometry as a Non-Invasive Soil Organism Health Monitoring Method

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

    Författare :Kristoffer Wilson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Vibrometer; Biotremology; Imidacloprid; Ants;

    Sammanfattning : Due to a lack of in-situ methods capable of detecting sub-lethal effects of pollutants on soil organisms, many polluted environments are not identified prior to pollution-induced changes in the soil fauna. Therefore, there is a need to develop new non-invasive methods to measure the health of soil organisms. LÄS MER
