  1. 1. Modelling and Retrieval of Forest Parameters from Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

    Författare :Maciej Soja; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Synthetic Aperture Radar; biomass estimation; modelling; forest;

    Sammanfattning : Currently, one of the most uncertain factors in the global carbon cycle models lies in the terrestrialcarbon stock, mainly forests. The available methods for global forest resource mapping provide onlyrough estimates of biomass, the most relevant practical quantity related to carbon stock. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Increased resilience in managed boreal forests : Controlling damage by spruce bark beetle and moose in Sweden

    Författare :Matilda Lindmark; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Erika Wallin; Jan-Olov Weslien; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Most of the forests growing in Europe today have been planted, or heavily affected, by humans. This is because the forest industry provides crucial raw materials for diverse products, including timber, pulp and paper, cellulose-based substances and renewable energy sources. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The impact of forest on pest damage, pollinators and pollination services in an Ethiopian agricultural landscape

    Författare :Ulrika Samnegård; Kristoffer Hylander; Peter Hambäck; Sileshi Nemomissa; Jaboury Ghazoul; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agroforestry; Apoidea; Coffea arabica; crop pests; Ethiopia; forest cover; landscape ecology; moist afromontane forests; pollination; species composition; tropical agriculture; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The distribution of wild biodiversity in agroecosystems affect crop performance and yield in various ways. In this thesis I have studied the impact of wild biodiversity, in terms of trees and forest structures, on crop pests, pollinators and the pollination services provided in a heterogeneous landscape in southwestern Ethiopia.

  4. 4. The significance of ethylene and ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTORS in wood formation of hybrid aspen

    Författare :Bernard Wessels; Hannele Tuominen; Judith Felten; Totte Niittylä; Kurt Fagerstedt; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ethylene; wood formation; hybrid aspen; Populus; ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR; ERF85; ERF139; cambium; lignin; xylem expansion; secondary cell wall; tension wood; cambial derivative cell fate; vessel element; time-lapse photography; molekylär bioteknik inst f nat vet biokemi ; molecular biotechnology dept of biochem ; genetik; Genetics; Physiological Botany; fysiologisk botanik;

    Sammanfattning : The woody tissues serve to stabilise plants, store nutrients and translocate water and minerals. The formation of wood, or ’secondary xylem’, follows a well-defined developmental gradient which is initiated by cell division activity in the vascular cambium. LÄS MER
