1. 21. Planning for an urban recreational landscape : tracing geographies of outdoor recreation in the compact city

   Författare :Amalia Engström; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Outdoor recreational activities, at recreational facilities, in nature and urban green areas, are proven to benefit both the mental and physical health of urban residents. However, in the contemporary urban planning paradigm, where compact cities are forefront, planning for outdoor recreational amenities is increasingly in conflict with such compact ideals. LÄS MER

4. 23. Green Is Not Just Green : human colour perception in urban green contexts

   Författare :Petra Thorpert; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The thesis is intended to be part of a larger process and field, by helping to increase understanding of how changed colour characteristics in urban green spaces can influence human experiences. More specifically, the thesis explores whether human colour perception is influenced by factors such as viewing distance, seasons, species mixture, or colourful artefacts incorporated in urban green spaces.

   Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : One of the biggest threats to forest ecosystems globally is the introduction and establishment of non-native species. In Sweden alone, several bark- and woodboring beetles have established populations in recent years. LÄS MER

7. 25. Ecosystem services in agricultural landscapes : A study on farming and farmers in South Africa and Sweden

   Författare :Rebecka Malinga; Regina Lindborg; Line Gordon; Thomas Elmqvist; Tobias Plieninger; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ecosystem service bundles; multifunctional landscapes; ecosystem service supply and demand; spatial scales; trade-offs; sustainable agriculture; transdisciplinary; stakeholder participation; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

   Sammanfattning : Humanity is facing challenges of sustainably producing enough food for a growing population without further eroding the world’s ecosystems. Transformation of natural habitats into agriculture has resulted in opportunities for civilization, but has also led to land degradation and loss of biodiversity, threatening the generation of ecosystem services.
