  1. 6. Spatial variation of dissolved organic carbon along streams in Swedish boreal catchments

    Författare :Johan Temnerud; Kevin Bishop; Bert Allard; Rolf Vogt; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical geography and sedimentology; spatial variation of stream water chemistry; Naturgeografi och sedimentologi; Physical geography; Naturgeografi; Enviromental Science; Miljövetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Denna avhandling behandlar den småskaliga rumsliga variationen av löst organiskt kol (DOC, engelsk term: dissolved organic carbon), dess koncentration, masstransport och karaktär, i bäckar inom två barrskogsbeklädda avrinningsområden (delavrinningsområden 0,01-78 km²). Provtagningen gjordes uppströms och nedströms varje bäckförgrening under sommarbasflöde. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Reproductive pattern and offspring performance in brown trout (Salmo trutta)

    Författare :Hans Olofsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Salmo trutta; spawning; egg size; fry competition; fry dispersion; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; limnologi; Limnology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with how reproductive traits and reproductive behaviour in femalebrown trout (Salmo trutta) are linked to offspring performance.In the small stream Tullviksbäcken, the choice of spawning sites was stronglyinfluenced by short-term fluctuations in stream flow and by substrate quality.

  3. 8. The importance of predation in benthic stream communities

    Författare :Jonas Dahl; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ekologi; Ecology; invertebrate predators; vertebrate predators; Predation; streams;

    Sammanfattning : There has been considerable debate whether or not predators has any significant effects on prey densities in streams. This thesis examines the importance of predation in stream communities. I have conducted both field and laboratory studies where I have studied how both vertebrate and invertebrate predators affects benthic prey. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Marine Current Resource Assessment : Measurements and Characterization

    Författare :Nicole Carpman; Karin Thomas; Mats Leijon; Sandra Eriksson; Mairead Atcheson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ADCP; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing interest in converting energy from renewable resources into electricity has led to an increase in research covering the field of marine current energy, mainly concerning tidal currents and in-stream tidal turbines. Tides have the advantage of being predictable decades ahead. LÄS MER

  5. 10. From behaviour to genes: anti-predator responses of brown trout (Salmo trutta) under winter conditions

    Författare :Karl Filipsson; Eva Bergman; Ann Erlandsson; Martin Österling; Johan Watz; Stefán Óli Steingrímsson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; burbot; climate change; cortisol; diel behaviour; gene expression; HPI axis; light; mRNA; piscivorous; poikilotherm; predator; salmonid; stream; stress; temperature; thermal; winter behaviour; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : Temperature has major effects on the performance of poikilotherms. In encounters with predators, low winter temperatures constrain predator detection and escape capabilities in prey fishes. LÄS MER
