  1. 1. From Corals to Corporations : Social-ecological dynamics in the Anthropocene ocean

    Författare :Jean-Baptiste Jouffray; Magnus Nyström; Toby Gardner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Anthropocene; Ocean; Coral reef; Finance; Regime shift; Sustainability; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Sammanfattning : The ocean has always been of paramount importance for the development of human civilisation. Today more than ever, the prospect of a new era of ‘blue growth’ poses great sustainability and governance challenges as marine ecosystems worldwide face unprecedented cumulative pressures from local human impacts, global climate change and distal socioeconomic processes.

  2. 2. Coral reefs in the Anthropocene : The effects of stress on coral metabolism and symbiont composition

    Författare :Suzanne Faxneld; Michael Tedengren; Alina Szmant; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Corals; Disturbance; Galaxea fascicularis; ITS2; Metabolism; mtDNA; Pollution; Porites lutea; Symbiodinium; Temperature; Turbinaria mesenterina; Vietnam; Marine Ecotoxicology; marin ekotoxikologi;

    Sammanfattning : Coral reefs constitute some of the most prolific and diverse ecosystems on our planet, but also among the most threatened. This thesis investigates the effects of environmental stressors on corals’ metabolism and symbiont diversity. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Causes and consequences of spatial genetic variation in two species of scleractinian coral in East Africa : Levels of genetic differentiation and intraspecific diversity of Pocillopora damicornis and Platygyra daedalea

    Författare :Petra Souter; Mats Grahn; Bertil Borg; Karen Miller; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; population genetics; corals; Kenya; Tanzania; Functional Zoomorphology; funktionell morfologi;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis is a study of the spatial genetic structure of two species of scleractinian corals, Pocillopora damicornis and Platygyra daedalea. The overall objective was to investigate the current capacity of MPAs to preserve and restore coral reefs and to contribute information to improve management decisions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Molecular and crystallographic aspects of some terpenoids from soft corals

    Författare :Rolf Karlsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The crystal structures and absolute configurations of five terpenoids:africanol, lemnacamol, capnellenetriol, sinulariolideand lobophytolide, all isolated from soft corals, have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Aspects of structure determination, conformation, absolute configuration determination and molecular association are given. LÄS MER
