  2. 1. Prehistoric human impact on wild mammalian populations in Scandinavia

    Author : Hans Ahlgren; Kerstin Lidén; Anders Angerbjörn; Anders Götherström; Gørill Nilsen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; hunter-gatherers; Baltic Sea; Mesolithic period; grey seal; harp seal; mountain hare; moose; ancient DNA; hunting; translocation; arkeologi med inriktning mot laborativ arkeologi; Scientific Archaeology;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to study the interactions of pre-agricultural societies in Scandinavia with wild mammals, for example in terms of hunting and translocation. More specifically, the aim is to investigate the possibility of identifying examples of overexploitation, targeted hunting or translocation of wild mammals in prehistoric Scandinavia, and to discuss the implications this could have had for both the wild animals and the humans.

  5. 3. Ecology and Conservation of the Baltic Proper Harbour Porpoise

    Author : Ida Carlén; Anders Angerbjörn; Julia Carlström; Martin Biuw; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Harbour porpoise; Baltic Sea; distribution; abundance; bycatch; conservation policy; zoologisk ekologi; Animal Ecology;

    Abstract : The Baltic Proper harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) population is listed by IUCN as Critically Endangered, but conservation action has been lacking for decades, partly due to very limited knowledge on important ecological parameters such as distribution range and abundance. This thesis provides some of the information needed for implementing effective conservation.

  6. 4. Distribution and abundance of genetic variation in the arctic fox

    Author : Love Dalén; Anders Angerbjörn; Robert K. Wayne; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : population genetics; DNA; ecology; population history; gene flow; Alopex lagopus;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates how changes in population size and spatial movements of individuals have shaped the distribution and abundance of neutral genetic variation in the arctic fox. This is done through mitochondrial and microsatellite DNA analyses on samples covering most of the species’ distribution, but with special emphasis on Scandinavia. READ MORE

  7. 5. Sociality in a solitary carnivore, the wolverine

    Author : Fredrik Dalerum; Anders Angerbjörn; Kyran Kunkel; Stanley Boutin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sociality; carnivore; behaviour; ecology; spatial organisation; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Abstract : The social organization of animal societies has important implications for several fields of biology, from managing wild populations to developing new ecological and evolutionary theory. Although much attention has been given to the formation and maintenance of societies of group living individuals, less is known about how societies of solitary individuals have been shaped and maintained.
