Waterfowl herbivory on submerged macrophytes in eutrophic lakes

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sjöfåglar påverkar undervattensväxter Liksom korna på betesmarken betar och påverkar växter på olika sätt, kan växtätande sjöfåglar påverka växter i sjöar. Svanar, sothönor och änder äter ofta undervattensväxter och jag har undersökt hur växterna påverka's av detta. Fågelsjöar är ofta näringsrika grunda sjöar, där växtproduktionen dominera's av undervattensväxter. OliSubmerged macrophytes are thought to stabilize clear-water states of shallow lakes. The aim of this thesis was to elucidate how waterfowl herbivory can affect abundance, distribution and species composition of submerged macrophytes in eutrophic lakes. I found that in a lake with sparse vegetation, which was in a colonization phase, small plants were uprooted and large plants were heavily grazed up

Computer Aided Planning of Production and Working Environment

Success of design projects depends on their quality from a technical and economic point of view and on the quality of their implementation and use. This paper discusses a computer aided planning (CAP) technique and its applicability and quality in both these respects. One version of the CAP-technique is developed for planning of industrial working environments and another version for planning of r

A Multiple-View Batch Plant Information Model

This paper presents a combined control and information model. Existing concepts from the information system area are modified to suit batch applications. The model has been applied to a simulated scenario consisting of a multi-purpose multi-path batch cell. The goal of the information model is to establish a framework for information systems that supports integrated batch plant operation.

Genetic variation, polyploidy and hybridization in Scandinavian Anthericum ramosum and A. liliago (Anthericaceae)

In this thesis, I investigate the differences in breeding system, levels of genetic variation and hierarchical structure of genetic diversity between Anthericum ramosum and A. liliago. The two species differ in ploidy level and flowering time, but have similar habitat preferences, reproductive biology and geographic distributions in Scandinavia. I also assess the potential for hybridization and ge

Applicability of a cognitive model and treatment to worry in children and adolescents

Studies have found that the cognitive model of worry developed by Dugas, Gagnon, Ladouceur and Freeston (1998) involving Intolerance of Uncertainly (IU), Cognitive Avoidance (CA), Positive Beliefs about Worry (PB), and Negative Problem Orientation (NPO) accounts for approximately 40-50% of the variance in worry frequency in adults. A recent trial of the treatment based on this model (Dugas, Brillo
