11. Structural changes in marine ecosystems – the application of novel network approaches to understand marine regime shift
Sammanfattning : Anthropogenic drivers, such as climate change and fishing, have severe, often unexpected impacts on marine ecosystems. Species responses to drivers may have cascading effects through ecological communities, potentially changing the structure and functioning of the food web. LÄS MER
12. Exploring synergies – management of multifunctional agricultural landscapes
Sammanfattning : AbstractHuman ingenuity and activities have resulted in erosion of ecosystems and their capacity to support the sustainable production of goods and functions that we depend on. Biodiversity i.e. LÄS MER
13. Get it off the ground – Facilitating water-related environmental measures to support agricultural managers in business model innovation processes for sustainability
Sammanfattning : Agricultural businesses, which currently maintain, manage, create, and capture economic value from natural resources on farmland, play an important role in creating sustainable economic, environmental, and social value through maintaining and utilising a variety of ecosystem services in addition to traditional food production. This thesis focuses on ecosystem services that derive from water-related environmental measures (WREMs). LÄS MER
14. Dynamic modelling of the forest ecosystem: Incorporation of the phosphorus cycle
Sammanfattning : The forest ecosystem provides and regulates many important ecosystem services, such as soil and water protection, timber production, and climate regulation. It has been influenced by changes induced by humans, for example, our increasing demand for timber and bioenergy, the increase in nitrogen (N) deposition and CO2 concentrations due to industrialization, and climate change which has caused an increase in global temperature and extreme events such as storms.
