1. Day or night? Testing thermal imaging technology for estimating ungulate population densities in southern Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreSammanfattning : To be able to make a proper judgement and choose the best management or conservation solution when working with populations of wild ungulates or any other wildlife, it is important to obtain good estimates of population densities. Inventing or improving wild animal monitoring methods is a key to protect what may be endangered or to avoid human-wildlife conflicts. LÄS MER
2. Feasibility of reintroduction of European Bison (Bison bonasus) to Sweden with focus on traffic accidents
Master-uppsats, SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research CentreSammanfattning : The historical occurrence of European bison (Bison bonasus) in Sweden during the early Holocene emphasizes the ecological significance for a potential reintroduction. The European bison, the largest herbivore on the European continent, is a keystone species with a significant influence on ecosystem dynamics. LÄS MER
3. How hot are retention patches as structural hotspots? : comparing key elements for biodiversity in retention patches and reference forest stands
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : Sweden’s historical and current forestry regime has created structurally simplified forest stands with little resemblance of boreal old-growth forests, leading to a decline in many forest dwelling species. Retention forestry was introduced to counteract the negative development by retaining biologically important forest elements. LÄS MER
4. Strengthening green infrastructure : modelling connectivity between continuity forests with high nature conservation values at the Sveaskog forest holding in northern Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : The continuity forests of the Swedish boreal landscape have become very sparse due to intensive rotation forestry and human land-use, and the remaining forests are very fragmented. These forests have a high conservational importance as they hold nature values that relies on a long forest continuity. LÄS MER
5. Count on dead wood : a comparison of nature conservation value assessment methods concerning dead wood
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental StudiesSammanfattning : Dead wood is acknowledged world-wide for its interconnection to biodiversity and sustainable forest management. In Sweden, today’s retention forestry requires measures to protect and create dead wood, which raise the need of inventory methods for estimating dead wood quantity and quality. LÄS MER
