2. 16. Metapopulation ecology of Osmoderma eremita - dispersal, habitat quality and habitat history

   Author : Jonas Hedin; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; extinction debt; habitat history; habitat quality; pheromone; telemetry; capture-mark-recapture; metapopulation; dispersal; oak; Osmoderma eremita; beetle; Animal ecology; Djurekologi;

   Abstract : This thesis starts with a review of different biodiversity assessment methods in forests and the rest deals with the metapopulation ecology of Osmoderma eremita, a threatened beetle living in hollow trees. I concentrate on the effect of dispersal, habitat quality and habitat history for the presence, population size and future survival of this species. READ MORE

   Abstract : Waran används sedan 60 år som blodförtunnande läkemedel för att förebygga eller förhindra progress av blodproppssjukdom. I Sverige behandlas årligen cirka 1 % av befolkningen med waran. I Östergötland uppskattas antal waranpatienter till cirka 3000. Waran hämmar enzymet VKORC1 som ansvarar för vitamin K omsättningen i kroppen. READ MORE

5. 18. Spatial forest resource competition: an economic study : How increased competition and production flexibility affect woody feedstock markets

   Author : Elias Olofsson; Robert Lundmark; Hanne Kathrine Sjölie; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

   Abstract : This thesis explores the Swedish forestry and forest industry sectors, together with their adjoining markets, and examines how these sectors are currently positioned to meet future developments and demands. For this purpose, four specific research questions are formulated, focusing on: (1) the structural composition of forest industry sector and how it will be affected by an increasing feedstock competition; (2) the production flexibility of the forest industry; (3) the resource allocation and price effects from increased feedstock competition; and (4) the potential implications from improved harvesting efficiency.

6. 19. Estimating source area of pollen and pollen productivity in the cultural landscapes of southern Sweden - developing a palynological tool for quantifying past plant cover

   Author : Anna Broström; Kvartärgeologi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aerial photographs; pollen productivity estimates; relevant source area of pollen; southern Sweden; quantitative landscape reconstruction; GIS; pollen dispersal; simulation model; Geology; physical geography; Geologi; fysisk geografi;

   Abstract : Fossil pollen records retrieved from peat and lake sediments have great potential for quantifying past plant cover. This thesis is a contribution to the development of a palynological interpretation tool for reconstructing past cultural landscapes in terms of plant abundance and distribution. READ MORE

7. 20. Emergency Department Crowding. Objective Modelling based on Workload

   Author : Jens Wretborn; Lund Medicin; []

   Abstract : Emergency Departments (ED) have a central role in modern healthcare, providing emergent care regardless of complaint 24/7. However, EDs are often characterized by long waiting times for patients and a stressful working environment for staff. These are features or a resource and demand mismatch, internationally known as ED crowding. READ MORE
