11. An exploration of the mechanisms behind peripheral nerve injury
Abstract : Despite surgical innovation, the sensory and motor outcome after peripheral nerve injury is incomplete. In this thesis, the biological pathways potentially responsible for the poor functional recoveries were investigated in both the distal nerve stump/target organ, spinal motoneurons and dorsal root ganglia (DRG).

12. Conservation of saproxylic species : an evaluation of set-asides and substrates in boreal forests
Abstract : Forest management has altered the prerequisite of many species in forest landscapes. The new, more conservation-oriented forest management includes a range of different strategies that aim to prevent losses of biodiversity. READ MORE

13. Climate impacts of woody biomass use for heat and power production in Sweden
Abstract : Global warming is a result of human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, primarily from fossil fuel use, but also from land use changes. To mitigate climate change, fossil fuel-based energy systems need to be replaced with alternative energy sources. READ MORE

15. Forest-Fuel Systems : Comparative Analyses in a Life Cycle Perspective
Abstract : Forest fuels can be recovered, stored and handled in several ways and these different ways have different implications for CO2 emissions. In this thesis, comparative analyses were made on different forest-fuel systems. The analyses focused on the recovery and transport systems. READ MORE
