  2. 1. Phytoplankton and Physical Disturbance : Seasonal dynamics in temperate Lake Erken, Sweden

    Author : Yang Yang; Kurt Pettersson; Peeter Nõges; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phytoplankton dynamics; high-frequency measurements; thermal stratification; water column stability; equilibrium; disturbance;

    Abstract : Phytoplankton mirrors changes in the environment and plays an important role in biogeochemical processes. Phytoplankton dynamics is the outcome of both autogenic succession and external disturbances. READ MORE

  4. 2. Railway traffic disturbance management

    Author : Johanna Törnquist; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Railway traffic; Transportation; Re-scheduling; Disturbance management; Decision support systems;

    Abstract : With the increasing traffic volumes in many railway networks and reports on capacity deficiencies that result in insufficient punctuality and reliability, the need for efficient disturbance management solutions becomes evident. This thesis focuses on solutions that aim to minimise the consequences of disturbances for the various stakeholders and specifically on methods for re-scheduling the traffic. READ MORE

  5. 3. Digital Lean Disturbance Management

    Author : Onur Kaya; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; digitalization; disturbance management; visualization; lean;

    Abstract : As a realization of visualization and simplification principles in lean, lean methods typically employ physical tools. However, being physical is both strength and weakness of lean tools. Being physical is a strength, because physical lean tools are easy to implement, easy to learn and easy to use. READ MORE

  6. 4. Ecological disturbances: the good, the bad and the ugly

    Author : J. Robin Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Disturbance; Diversity;

    Abstract : Abstract. This thesis focuses on the definitions, characterizations and quantifications of ecological disturbances, as well as hypotheses on their impacts on biological communities. READ MORE

  7. 5. Resistance and recolonization of bryophyte assemblages following disturbances : - detecting patterns and exploring mechanisms

    Author : Martin Schmalholz; Kristoffer Hylander; Jari Kouki; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bryophytes; boreal forest; boulders; clear-cutting; disturbance; establishment; insect outbreaks; microtopography; recolonization; resistance; spatial heterogeneity; succession; wildfires; Biology; Biologi; Plant Ecology; växtekologi;

    Abstract : Disturbances are ubiquitous features of most northern forest ecosystems. The subsequent response of plant assemblages on both short (resistance or not) and long term (recolonization or not) will depend on a number of factors operating at several spatial scales. READ MORE
