  1. 26. Trophic interactions in the tundra: Impacts of large mammal herbivory on carbon processes and fungal communities

    Författare :Cole Brachmann; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Herbivory; Arctic; Fungi; Trace gas fluxes; Decomposition; Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds; Mycorrhiza; Tundra; Reindeer;

    Sammanfattning : Plant productivity is generally increasing in the Arctic as a consequence of accelerated climate change. The change in plant communities may coincide with a loss of carbon from Arctic soils due to increased decomposition and respiration. LÄS MER

  2. 27. Interactions between neural retina, retinal epithelium and choroid

    Författare :Lena Ivert; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :RPE; neural retina; basal lamina; Bruch s membrane; choroid; subretinal space; bleb detachment; ICG; FAG; SLO; choroidal blood flow.;

    Sammanfattning : The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a non-replicating monolayer that plays a key role nursing the photoreceptors of the neural retina, regulating fluid movement within the subretinal space, maintaining a basal laminar layer of Bruch s membrane, and influencing the choriocapillaris. This project investigates how surgical manipulation of the retinal epithelial layer influences the neural retina, the choroid and the epithelial layer itself. LÄS MER

  3. 28. Species interactions and energy transfer in aquatic food webs

    Författare :Jens Munk Nielsen; Monika Winder; Sture Hansson; Michael T. Brett; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aquatic food webs; zooplankton; stable isotope analysis amino acids; molecular diet analysis; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Food webs are structured by intricate nodes of species interactions which govern the flow of organic matter in natural systems. Despite being long recognized as a key component in ecology, estimation of food web functioning is still challenging due to the difficulty in accurately measuring species interactions within a food web.

  4. 29. Benthic invertebrate food webs in the Baltic Sea : Anthropogenic pressure effects and methodological advancements

    Författare :Julie Garrison; Francisco Nascimento; Ángel Borja; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; food web; trophic network; detritivore; Baltic Sea; macrofauna; marinbiologi; Marine Biology;

    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

  5. 30. Effects of warming on the ecology of algal-dominated phytobenthic communities in the Baltic Sea

    Författare :Filip Svensson; Pauline Snoeijs; Johan Eklöf; Hans Kautsky; Nils Ekelund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; climate change; warming; photosynthesis; trophic cascades; pigments; community traits; temperature gradient; invasive mussel; Marine Ecology; marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Through climate change, the global average air and surface water temperature has risen 0.85°C during the last 100 years. The Baltic Sea experienced one of the most rapid increase in temperature recorded of marine ecosystems. LÄS MER
