  1. 1. Plant community assembly in grazed grasslands

    Författare :Bryndís Marteinsdóttir; Eriksson Ove; Cousins Sara A. O.; Johan Ehrlén; Meelis Pärtel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Assembly rules; dispersal limitation; environmental filtering; establishment limitation; ex-arable fields; functional traits; landscape history; semi-natural grasslands; seed bank; seed augmentation; seed rain; trait based filtering; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Sammanfattning : Species assembly into local communities from the surrounding region can be caused either by species failure to reach the site (i.e. seed limitation) or to establish (i.e. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Ecological and evolutionary assembly processes and metacommunity structure

    Författare :Mikael Pontarp; Evolutionär ekologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Community; metacommunity; phylogenetic signal; ecology; evolution; assembly process; marine bacteria; habitat filtering; competition; mathematical modeling; simulation; eco-evolutionary;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to elucidate the link between abiotic and biotic effects and biogeographical contingencies, eco-evolutionary assembly processes, and community structure in a spatially explicit metacommunity framework. To this end, we used structure analysis of naturally sampled and experimentally manipulated marine bacterial communities and mathematical eco-evolutionary modeling and simulations of metacommunity assembly.

  4. 3. Microbial Community Assembly during Aerobic Granulation

    Författare :Raquel Liebana; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aerobic granular sludge; granulation; washout dynamics; membrane bioreactors; sequencing batch reactors; fluorescence in-situ hybridization; microbial community dynamics; reproducibility;

    Sammanfattning : Environmental deterioration together with the increasingly restrictive legislation of water quality standards have led to a demand for compact, efficient and less energy consuming technologies for wastewater treatment. Aerobic granular membrane bioreactors (AGMBRs) combine the advantages of aerobic granular sludge and membrane filtration. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Community and food web assembly on virgin habitat islands - The nunatak saga

    Författare :Maria Ingimarsdottir; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; allochthonous material; arthropods; community assembly; corridor; dispersal; Iceland; metacommunity; nunataks; primary succession; stable isotopes.;

    Sammanfattning : The classical view of primary community assembly is that colonisation by plants is essential before invertebrates can establish. It has been recognised, however, that invertebrates can establish before plants, and that they may be important in the first steps of community assembly. LÄS MER

  7. 5. It's complicated: : The role of timing in microbial community coalescence

    Författare :Theresa Lumpi; Eva S. Lindström; Clara Ruiz-González; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; community coalescence; arrival timing; dispersal timing; microbial communities; community composition; lake bacteria; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, the importance of historical contingency has been increasingly recognized in microbial communities. During community coalescence, immigration history, and dispersal history can become decisive for the developing community. LÄS MER
