6. Disturbances in food webs : Importance of species interactions from an ecological and evolutionary perspective
Sammanfattning : Biodiversity loss is occurring globally at an unprecedented pace. This is not only followed by ethical concerns; it also affects all levels of an ecosystem, with wide-spread implications for ecosystem functioning, services and human well-being. LÄS MER
7. Multiple forces drive the Baltic Sea food web dynamics and its response to environmental change
Sammanfattning : Understanding the interaction of multiple drivers and their compounded effects on ecosystem dynamics is a key challenge for marine resource management. The Baltic Sea is one of the world’s seas most strongly impacted by effects from both human activities and climate. LÄS MER
8. Food Webs, Models and Species Extinctions in a Stochastic Environment
Sammanfattning : In light of the current global mass extinction of species, ecologists are facing great challenges. In order to reverse the path towards additional extinctions early warning systems to guide management actions need to be developed. LÄS MER
9. Benthic invertebrate food webs in the Baltic Sea : Anthropogenic pressure effects and methodological advancements
Sammanfattning : Trophic interactions are ecologically important, as they structure communities, and globally important for the ecosystem functions that they facilitate. Anthropogenic pressures are altering the structure of food webs, their stability, and resilience to change. LÄS MER
10. Trophic, Indirect, and Evolutionary Interactions in a Plant–Herbivore–Parasitoid System
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis project was to elucidate patterns and processes associated with the biotic interactions in a natural plant–herbivore–parasitoid food web characterized by spatial and temporal heterogeneity with regard to species composition. The system examined is based on island populations of the perennial herb Meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria, Rosaceae), located in the Skeppsvik Archipelago. LÄS MER
