  1. 1. A land of one's own : Sami resource use in Sweden's boreal landscape under autonomous governance

    Author : Gudrun Norstedt; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; ALS; archaeology; boreal forest; dendrochronology; forest history; historical maps; interdisciplinary research; lidar; Sami; settlement patterns; ALS; arkeologi; boreal skog; bosättningsmönster; dendrokronologi; historiska kartor; lidar; samer; skogshistoria; tvärvetenskap;

    Abstract : The Sami dominated large parts of boreal Sweden well into the 18th century, and knowledge of Sami subsistence patterns is therefore a key to the region’s forest history. Although much research has been done on Sami resource use and landscape impact, the context is often vaguely understood. READ MORE

  2. 2. Landscape Dynamics : Spatial analyses of villages and farms on Gotland AD 200-1700

    Author : Gustaf Svedjemo; Frands Herschend; Helene Martinsson-Wallin; Jan Henrik Fallgren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Gotland; Archaeology; History; Historical maps; Roman Iron Age; Migration Period; Middle Ages; Village; Village formation; Farm; Settlement archaeology; Spatial analyses; GIS; Prediction modelling.; Gotland; Arkeologi; Historia; Historiska kartor; Romersk järnålder; Folkvandringstid; By; Bybildning; Gård; Bebyggelsearkeologi; rumsliga analyser; GIS; Geografiska informationssystem; prediktionsmodellering;

    Abstract : This dissertation deals with the long-term dynamics and fluctuations of settlements on Gotland for the period from AD 200 up until early modern times. The settlement structure on Gotland is most often described as very stable and consisting of solitary farms, established in the Iron Age. READ MORE

  3. 3. Ontology as Conceptual Schema when Modelling Historical Maps for Database Storage

    Author : Gustaf Svedjemo; Erland Jungert; Wollter Arnberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; ontology; historical maps; database modelling; GIS; Geographical Information Systems; archaeology; history; ontologi; historiska kartor; databasmodellering; GIS; geografiska informationssystem; arkeologi; historia; Computer science; Datavetenskap; History subjects; Historieämnen;

    Abstract : Sweden has an enormous treasure in its vast number of large-scale historical maps from a period of 400 years made for different purposes, that we call map series. The maps are also very time and regional dependent with respect to their concepts. A large scanning project by Lantmäteriverket will make most of these maps available as raster images. READ MORE

  4. 4. Life paths through space and time: Adding the micro-level geographic context to longitudinal historical demographic research

    Abstract : Historical demographic research is central to understanding past human behaviours and traits, such as fertility, mortality and migration. An essential part of historical demography is conducting longitudinal analyses at the micro-level, which involves the detailed follow-up of individuals over long time periods throughout their lives.

  5. 5. The impact of past land-use change on floristic diversity in southern Sweden : a quantitative approach based on high-resolution pollen data

    Author : Daniel Fredh; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the relationship between land-use and floristic diversity over the last three millennia in the uplands of southern Sweden. A quantitative approach based on high-resolution pollen data was applied, using the Landscape Reconstruction Algorithm (LRA), historical maps/aerial photographs, palynological richness and new ways to estimate past evenness at regional and local spatial scales, which enable estimates of the rate and degree of change in land-use and floristic diversity.
