  4. 2. Standardisering som grund för informationssamverkan och IT-tjänster : en fallstudie baserad på trafikinformationstjänsten RDS-TMC

    Author : Anders Forsman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : I dagens samhälle ställs allt högre krav på samverkan och informationsutbyte mellan olika personer, organisationer, och informationssystem (IS). Detta betyder att utveckling och användning av IS tenderar att bli allt mer komplex. READ MORE

  5. 3. Consequences of Environmental Variation for Fish and Their Skin Associated Microbial Communities

    Author : Hanna Berggren; Anders Forsman; Per Larsson; Mark Dopson; Jarone Pinhassi; Richard Svanbäck; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; Ekologi;

    Abstract : Environmental conditions that vary in space and time influence the distribution, abundance, diversity and evolution of individuals, populations, species and communities. This thesis explores how environmental variation affects diversity at different levels of biological organization, and across a wide range of spatiotemporal scales, by studying fish and their associated microbiomes.

  6. 4. Drivers of polymorphism dynamics in pygmy grasshoppers

    Author : Jenny Johansson; Anders Forsman; Jacob Höglund; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolutionary Biology; Evolutionsbiologi;

    Abstract : In this thesis, I used colour polymorphism in pygmy grasshoppers as a model system to study the influence of selection, developmental plasticity, mating behaviour and gene flow on patterns of phenotypic and genetic diversity within and among populations in changing environments.Data for more than 5,000 individuals collected from natural populations showed that the incidence of black (melanic) pygmy grasshoppers was higher in burnt than in non-burnt areas, and rapidly declined over time within populations in post-fire environments.

  7. 5. Evolution in changing environments revealed by fire melanism in pygmy grasshopper

    Author : Magnus Karlsson; Anders Forsman; Karl Gotthard; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolution Melanism Polymorphism Pygmy grasshoppers; Biology; Biologi; Evolutionary Biology; Evolutionsbiologi;

    Abstract : According to theory, genetic diversity can be maintained by environmental variation and the degree of genetic and phenotypic polymorphism may enhance the ability of populations to endure stress imposed by changing environments. In my thesis I used colour polymorphic pygmy grasshoppers (Tetrix subulata) as a model system to explore how environmental variation influenced genetic diversity. READ MORE
