Paleolimnologiske undersøkelser i innsjøene Floen og Bjørkelangen : sammenligning av sedimentkjerner for å undersøke i hvilken grad menneskelig aktivitet og klima har påvirket vannkvaliteten
(Master thesis, 2017)Tidligere resultater fra paleolimnologisk metode viser at flere innsjøer på Østlandet har en økning i trofi, som har økt i takt med menneskelig aktivitet og urbanisering i nedbørsfeltet. Denne hypotesen stemmer ikke for ... -
Papir som fysisk beskyttelse av granplanter (Picea abies) mot gransnutebillen (Hylobius abietis)
(Master thesis, 2021)En vellykket foryngelse er viktig for å sikre en bærekraftig skogforvaltning. Foryngelse av gran (Picea abies) foregår i all hovedsak gjennom planting. Gransnutebillen (Hylobius abietis) utgjør en stor fare for granplanter ... -
Parasites and people : crocodile parasite interactions in human impacted areas of Belize
