  1. 1. REINDEER GRAZING IN A NORTHERN BOREAL FOREST : Seasonal and reindeer-induced changes in nutrient availability and soil temperature

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

    Författare :Agnes Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :nutrient availability; soil temperature; reindeer grazing; seasonal nutrient cycling; boreal forest;

    Sammanfattning : Soil nutrient availability is a key component to understanding the boreal ecosystems, as it directly relates to plant productivity and ecosystem diversity. There is however little known about how the nutrient availability changes seasonally in the boreal forest. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Influence of surface water availability on the distribution of White Rhinoceros in central Greater Kruger

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Julie Mauguiere; [2022]
    Nyckelord :White Rhinoceros; Ceratotherium simum; water provisioning; artificial water; ecological processes; habitat selection; spatial ecology; landscape use; KNP; APNR; SAWC;

    Sammanfattning : The population of white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum) is now declining in the Kruger National Park (KNP) in South Africa due to the intense poaching crisis ongoing since the early 2000s. The need for an efficient conservation effort has never been greater and requires a better understanding of white rhinoceros distribution in the landscape. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Reindeer induced changes in vegetation composition and plant traits on a tundra-forest border

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