6. Evolution of Dispersal and Habitat Exploration in Butterflies
Sammanfattning : The development of wings may be one of the most important reasons for the great diversity among insects. Being able to move makes it possible to colonise new areas and explore resources in the surroundings. However, developing dispersal-related traits, like wings or flight muscles, is costly and moving can also be dangerous. LÄS MER
7. Plant Population Dynamics of Dodonaea angustifolia and Olea europaea ssp. cuspidata in Dry Afromontane Forests of Ethiopia
Sammanfattning : Human disturbance has led to excessive deforestation and to a very limited forest cover in the Afromontane zone of Ethiopia, which forms a large part of the country. Thus urgent conservation measures are required to ameliorate the situation. LÄS MER
8. Woody or treeless pastures? Effects of EU tree density limitations on biodiversity in woody pastures
Sammanfattning : The high biological and cultural values of traditionally managed rural landscapes are threatened by habitat change and degradation due to homogenisation through modern agricultural practices and abandonment. Woody pastures are important for many different taxa, and hence crucial for biodiversity conservation in these agricultural landscapes. LÄS MER
9. Towards Better Urban Spaces in Harmony with Microclimate: Urban design and planning regulations in hot dry Damascus, Syria
Sammanfattning : This research is an attempt to develop further understanding of the relationship between microclimate, thermal comfort, urban design and outdoor space users in the hot dry city of Damascus. This is done by studying the impact of urban regulations on microclimate in different urban design patterns in Damascus. LÄS MER
10. Epigenetic Regulation of Light and Hormonal Signaling in Arabidopsis thaliana
Sammanfattning : Plants are stationary and need to adapt to the environment they live in. Integration of environmental cues, such as changes in light and temperature, can occur either directly or through the action of hormones. Hormone and light signaling leads to rapid changes in gene expression, and eventually changes in protein levels. LÄS MER
