  2. 2. The nitrogen economy of mountain birch : As related to environmental conditions and genotype

    Author : Martin Weih; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii; growth; nitrogen; subarctic; temperature; ultraviolet radiation; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Abstract : Responses of mountain birch growth to changed environmental conditions arestrongly affected by birch genotype, and nitrogen economy is a key factor influencingthe winter survival of first-year seedlings. These are some of the findings of a series ofstudies, in which growth, nitrogen economy and winter survival were analysed usingpot-grown seedlings of mountain birch (Betula pubescens ssp. READ MORE

  3. 3. Treeline dynamics in short and long term perspectives : observational and historical evidence from the southern Swedish Scandes

    Author : Lisa Öberg; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Leif Kullman; Aage Paus; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii; Picea abies; Pinus sylvestris; Larix sibirica; climate; Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii; Picea abies; Pinus sylvestris; Larix sibirica;

    Abstract : Treelines in high-mountain regions are constrained by heat deficiency, although the working mechanisms are still not entirely understood. Observational and paleoecological studies on treeline performance may contribute to increased understanding of the treeline phenomenon in general. READ MORE

  4. 4. Treeline dynamics in short and long term perspectives : observational and historical evidence from the southern Swedish Scandes

    Author : Lisa Öberg; Bengt-Gunnar Jonsson; Leif Kullman; Ulf Segerström; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii; Picea abies; Pinus sylvestris; climate change; monitoring; treeline advance; clones; megafossils; immigration; Holocene; cryptic refugia; Swedish Scandes; Terrestrial ecology; Terrestrisk ekologi;

    Abstract : Against the background of past, recent and future climate change, the present thesis addresses elevational shifts of alpine treelines in the Swedish Scandes. By definition, treeline refers to the elevation (m a.s.l. READ MORE

  5. 5. Stress-induced BVOC emissions from forests in Sweden

    Author : Erica Jaakkola; BECC: Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Volatile organic compounds; Plant stress; Forests; Volatile emissions; spruce bark beetle infestations; ozone stress; wildfire recovery; Picea abies Norway spruce ; Betula pubescens ssp. czerepanovii; Pinus sylvestris Scots pine ; sweden;

    Abstract : A changing climate is expected to lead to more extreme weather events, such as an increased frequency of droughts and forest fires. Changing forest conditions can offer benefits to species such as insects, including bark borers that thrive in warm conditions. READ MORE
