  2. 1. Fragmented landscapes : Assessment and communication of landscape connectivity in human-dominated landscapes

    Author : Arvid Bergsten; Örjan Bodin; Bo Ebenman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fragmentation; Connectivity; Network; Spatial; Landscape; Dispersal; Planning; Social-Ecological; Scale; IIC; STS; naturresurshushållning; Natural Resources Management;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis summarizes the first half of my PhD on the theme of management of fragmented landscapes. The thesis applies – and reflects on the use of – network analysis of connectivity in relation to landscape planning. READ MORE

  4. 2. A Spatial Scale Approach to Fish Habitat Ecology and Impacted Rivers

    Author : Henry H. Hansen; Eva Bergman; Max Lindmark; Dana Infante; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fish Habitat Models; River Ecology; Novel Riverscapes; Spatial Scale; Fish Communities; Anthropogenic Impacts; Sustainability; River Management; River Restoration; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Fish biodiversity in rivers is threatened by continual habitat loss. Evidence to support management and restoration of rivers requires information about the specific habitat requirements for entire fish communities. READ MORE

  5. 3. Vintage models of spatial structural change

    Author : Lars Westin; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; adiabatic approximation; dynamics; input-output; interregional computable general equilibrium; slaving principle; spatial models; spatial linear expenditure system; spatial price equilibrium; transportation networks; vintage function;

    Abstract : In the study a class of multisector network models, suitable for simulation of the interaction between production, demand, trade, and infrastructure, is presented. A characteristic feature of the class is a vintage model of the production system. READ MORE

  6. 4. Virtual Reality for Enriched Rehabilitation of Stroke Patients with Spatial Neglect : Diagnostics and the Rehabilitation Effect on Spatial Attention and Neuronal Activity

    Author : Helena Fordell; Jan Malm; Anders Eklund; Hanne Krarup Christensen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Stroke; spatial neglect; rehabilitation; virtual reality; enriched environment; fMRI;

    Abstract : Background: Approximately a third of all stroke patients develop spatial neglect, a debilitating symptom associated with poor outcome. Spatial neglect is clinically defined as a deficit in processing and responding to stimuli presented on the contralesional side of the body, or the space surrounding that side of the body. READ MORE

  7. 5. Large-scale Runoff Generation and Routing : Efficient Parameterisation using High-resolution Topography and Hydrography
