  1. 6. Vegetation changes on Swedish mires : Effects of raised temperature and increased nitrogen and sulphur influx

    Författare :Urban Gunnarsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Acidification; growth; long-term studies; mires; nitrogen; species richness; Sphagnum; succession; sulphur; temperature; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Sammanfattning : Since the start of the industrialisation, the deposition of nitrogen and sulphur and the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased. The main objectives of this study were to find how these changes in climate and deposition can change the vegetation of mire ecosystems and the growth of Sphagnumspecies. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Myonuclear Organization and Regulation of Muscle Contraction in Single Muscle Fibres : Effects of Ageing, Gender, Species, Endocrine Factors and Muscle Size

    Författare :Rizwan Qaisar; Lars Larsson; Jo Bruusgaard; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; single muscle cells; muscle nuclei; specific force; species; hypertrophy; mammals; ageing; gender; Physiology; Fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The skeletal muscle fibre is a syncitium where each myonucleus regulates the gene products in a finite volume of cytoplasm i.e., the myonuclear domain (MND). LÄS MER

  3. 8. The Big Bad EU? Species Protection and European Federalism : A Case Study of Wolf Conservation and Contestation in Sweden

    Författare :Yaffa Epstein; Jan Darpö; An Cliquet; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Habitats Directive; species protection; subsidiarity; Endangered Species Act;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation examines how eco-knowledge intersects with the changes to EU legal cultures and practices known as eurolegalism. This conjunction has created a mechanism for the extension of EU law in the Member States even in the face of a weakened EU. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Investigations of species richness effects on ecosystem functioning using stream-living macroinvertebrates as model organisms

    Författare :Micael Jonsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; Species richness; species loss; process rates; ecosystem function; streams; macroinvertebrates; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Sammanfattning : The work in this thesis deals with effects of changed species richness on process rates among stream-living macroinvertebrates. Global biodiversity is decreasing rapidly and it is poorly known what the consequences of this loss may be for ecosystems and the services they provide. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Interaction strength and keystone species in model food webs

    Författare :Maria Christianou; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; interaction strength; keystone species; keystone links; permanence; resilience; local stability; Lotka-Volterra models; species loss;

    Sammanfattning : Ecological communities are often exposed to different kind of disturbances of varied magnitude. The response to disturbances can be affected by, among other factors, the strength of interactions between species within the community. LÄS MER
