1. Imagining Multispecies Worlds
Sammanfattning : It can be considered the most systemic, deadly, and all-encompassing form of institutional violence that currently exists: speciesism, the oppression and exploitation of other animals. For most people on our planet, speciesism is something completely normalized, justified, and encouraged through many facets of dominant cultures. LÄS MER
2. Trophic resource use and partitioning in multispecies ungulate communities
Sammanfattning : Over the past decades, ungulates across the northern hemisphere have been expanding in range and numbers. This has raised concerns about their impacts, particularly on shared resources with humans, e.g., timber trees. LÄS MER
3. Unleashing Animal-Computer Interaction : A Theoretical Investigation of the “I” in ACI
Sammanfattning : Non-human animals have had a long co-existence and relationship with human culture and society, and we interact with them in a number of ways, and for various reasons. Their involvement in technology can be traced back more than half a century, initially restricted to scientific contexts, for example, for the study of animal behavior, cognition, or language learning abilities.

4. Species Delimitation and Phylogenetic Relationships. A study of Silene sections Atocion and Cryptoneurae
Sammanfattning : Abstract The existence of conflicting genealogies of different genes through the evolution of species complicates the inference of phylogenetic relationships. The Multispecies Coalescent (MSC) model provides a theoretical background that account for the stochasticity in the genealogical process, thus providing systematists with a potentially objective way of testing alternative hypotheses of putative species.

5. Bridging the past to the present: investigating species boundaries with herbarium specimens and next-generation-sequencing. A case study of circumpolar Silene sect. Physolychnis
Sammanfattning : During the recent decades, genetic information enclosed in herbarium collections have been partly revealed, largely due to the fast-moving high-throughput sequencing technologies. However, the genetic outcome from herbarium material is limited by its degradation over time, often worsened by certain preservation methods. LÄS MER
