Sammanfattning : Natural resources such as wildlife are part of social-ecological systems, which are characterized by inherent complexity, uncertainty, and changes. Therefore, collaborative, decentralized, and adaptive approaches tend to be preferred in environmental governance. LÄS MER
17. Forest Development and Interactions with Large Herbivores
Sammanfattning : This thesis discusses aspects of feeding habits of moose (Alces alces) and their impact on forest development. The development of forage that is available to moose was studied by sampling the amount of edible biomass on pine and birch trees. LÄS MER

Some of the settlers derived from the east and the northeast and spread from the Russian taiga, through Finland and into northern Sweden, the study area for this thesis. LÄS MER
