16. Recruitment and distribution patterns of plants in Swedish semi-natural grasslands
Sammanfattning : Semi-natural pastures with different histories of management are nowadays the main remnants of the traditional agrarian landscape in southern Sweden. The aims of this thesis were to investigate the importance of features of the present-day landscape and its management history for species distribution and abundance patterns in Swedish semi-natural pastures, with a particular focus on factors affecting recruitment processes.

17. From genes to ecological function in marine bacteria
Sammanfattning : Bacteria in the sea are constantly exposed to environmental challenges (e.g. variations in nutrient concentrations, temperature and light conditions), and therefore appropriate gene expression response strategies to cope with them efficiently are evolved. LÄS MER
18. Growth and Structural Characterization of SiC Crystals
Sammanfattning : Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising semiconductor material for a variety of new device applications. These include high-power devices, high-voltage switching applications, hightemperature electronics, and high-power microwave applications. Due to its superior material properties SiC provides many advantages over Si. LÄS MER
19. Black Death - Blue Skies - White Clouds : Water Vapour Uptake of Particles Produced from Traffic Exhaust and their Effect on Climate
Sammanfattning : Aerosol particles are everywhere in the air around us, regardless of whether you are in a busy city or in the serene Arctic. Airborne particles can be produced naturally or anthropogenically, and their properties changes during the time they spend in the atmosphere. LÄS MER
20. Extending dynamic vegetation models to simulate range shifts
Sammanfattning : In response to rapid climate change and increasing human pressure, a wide variety of taxa have shifted their distribution in the past decades (range shift), with important consequences for ecosystem services and human health and economy. However, it is not yet clear whether most species will be able to track their favourable habitats or lag behind the climate signal (migration lag). LÄS MER
