  1. 31. Land use effects on greenhouse gas emissions from boreal inland waters

    Författare :Marcus Klaus; Jan Karlsson; Peter Staehr; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; greenhouse gas; boreal forest; carbon cycling; whole-ecosystem experiment; limnology; metabolism; forest clearcutting; nitrogen enrichment;

    Sammanfattning : Anthropogenic activities perturb the global carbon and nitrogen cycle with large implications for the earth’s climate. Land use activities deliver excess carbon and nitrogen to aquatic ecosystems. In the boreal biome, this is mainly due to forestry and atmospheric deposition. LÄS MER

  2. 32. Responses of boreal forest understory plant communities to climate and forestry

    Författare :Ditte Marie Christiansen; Kristoffer Hylander; Johan Ehrlén; Signe Normand; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; boreal forests; bryophytes; climate; climate change; community temperature index; demography; forest management; microclimate; plants; species interactions; species distributions; time-lags; transplant experiment; understory communities; Ecology and Evolution; ekologi och evolution;

    Sammanfattning : A warming climate is altering species distributions and community compositions. To understand and predict changes in species distributions to climate change, we often use species occurrences together with large-scale regional climate data. This can be problematic for several reasons. LÄS MER

  3. 33. Living on the edge : effectiveness of buffer strips in protecting biodiversity on boreal riparian forests

    Författare :Kristoffer Hylander; Christer Nilsson; Bengt Gunnar Jonsson; Ellen Macdonald; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; boreal forest; bryophyte; buffer strip; ecological boundary; edge effect; headwater stream; land snail; liverwort; moss; phytometer; riparian forest; substrate; terrestrial gastropod; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the ecological consequences of buffer strip retention on riparian and terrestrial biodiversity. Earlier studies on forest buffer strips have evaluated their effectiveness in relation to water quality and aquatic biota. However, forests along streams are species rich habitats for many organism groups. LÄS MER

  4. 34. Characterisation of boreal forests and urban areas using ERS InSAR Coherence

    Författare :Maurizio Santoro; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; decorrelation; urban areas; spaceborne SAR interferometry; stem volume retrieval; classification; multi-temporal cobination; ERS; boreal forests; coherence; C-band;

  5. 35. Hydrological aspects of the carbon balance in a boreal catchment: A model study

    Författare :Alla Yurova; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cartography; pedology; geomorphology; Physical geography; boreal peatland; dissolved organic carbon; ecohydrology; model; climatology; Fysisk geografi; geomorfologi; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractThe cycling of carbon in its gaseous, solid and dissolved forms is of central importance to ecosystem science, particularly, when the natural carbon cycle has been perturbed by human activity. Mathematical models are commonly used to asses and predict global and regional patterns of terrestrial carbon exchange. LÄS MER
