  1. 16. Mountain vegetation in the Faroe Islands in a climate change perspective

    Författare :Anna Maria Fosaa; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; klimatologi; marklära; Växtekologi; Fysisk geografi; climatology; cartography; pedology; geomorphology; climate change.; Physical geography; Raunkiær´s life-forms; biodiversity; Vegetation zones; plant communities; Plant ecology; kartografi; geomorfologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is a study of the mountain vegetation in the Faroe Islands based on five altitudinal transects sampled during the period 1999-2001. The vegetation was studied on the basis of plant communities, life-forms and biodiversity of vascular plant species and is discussed in a climate change perspective. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Global Changes and European Terrestrial Ecosystems

    Författare :Emmanuel Gritti; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; European species; Climatic risk; pedology; cartography; climatology; Fysisk geografi; geomorphology; Physical geography; Vegetation modelling; Pollen analysis; Plant invasion; geomorfologi; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi; Global Changes;

    Sammanfattning : Global environmental changes are topics of important societal concern and current scientific interest. These changes are driven by many different forcing and feedbacks occurring at various time and geographic scales and are largely influencing the various Earth systems. LÄS MER

  4. 18. An Optimisation Approach to Cartographic Generalisation

    Författare :Lars Harrie; Centrum för geografiska informationssystem (GIS-centrum); []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; incremental generalisation; multiple representation; least-squares method; optimisation; cartographic constraints; displacement; cartographic generalisation; graphic generalisation; map production; object-oriented spatial databases; Physical geography; geomorphology; pedology; cartography; climatology; Fysisk geografi; geomorfologi; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi; Technological sciences; Teknik;

    Sammanfattning : Cartographic generalisation is the process of simplifying a representation to suit the scale and purpose of a map. As such, generalisation has always been a central part in map production. This thesis is a contribution to the ongoing work on automating cartographic generalisation. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Education through Maps : The Challenges of Knowing and Understanding the World

    Författare :Pontus Hennerdal; Ulf Jansson; Bo Malmberg; Ann Grubbström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; cartography; geography education; map projections; maps; place location knowledge; world maps; Sweden; kartografi; geografiundervisning; kartor; kartprojektioner; namngeografi; världskartor; Sverige; Geography with Emphasis on Human Geography; geografi med kulturgeografisk inriktning;

    Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of this thesis is to study, in relation to geography education and with a historical perspective, the challenges of knowing and understanding the world. The cases are all from Sweden. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Towards an integrated ecology through mechanistic modelling of ecosystem structure and functioning

    Författare :Thomas Hickler; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pedology; cartography; climatology; Fysisk geografi; geomorfologi; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi; geomorphology; Physical geography; integrated ecology; plant hydraulic architecture; climate change; CO2 fertilisation effect; biogeography; biogeochemistry; vegetation dynamics; ecosystem modelling;

    Sammanfattning : Plant physiology, population dynamics and the structure and functioning of ecosystems are closely interrelated. However, these processes are often investigated independently within different subdisciplines of ecology. LÄS MER
