Abstract:

I preformed classical molecular dynamics simulations where two silicon carbide nanoparticles of different sizes were held in high temperatures, and examined the changes in the nanoparticles’ structures. In the smaller of the two simulations, the growth of a curved carbon layer was observed, while the length of the larger simulation wasn’t long enough for a similar structure to form. Additionally, I re-evaluated the suitability of the potential chosen for the simulations, namely, the Tersoff potential with parametrization by Erhart and Albe.

This article-based thesis focuses on the formation of vocational knowing within adult and upper secondary floristry education in Sweden. Three articles explore classroom interaction and assessment actions; a fourth considers changes in vocational subject matter during the period 1990–2015. While the first three articles draw on empirical data in the form of video and audio recordings in combination with participant observation, the fourth is based primarily on material-based interview data. All four articles share a sociocultural perspective on educational practice (Wertsch, 1998; Säljö, 2011,

XE-1019 (2 foliar sprays of 10, 2Q or 30 mg-liter⁻¹) was applied to plants of Hydrangea macrophylla Ser. 'Rose Supreme' during greenhouse forcing. Doses applied resulted in excessive reductions in shoot elongation and inflorescence diameters and delayed anthesis. Shoot growth was reduced with increasing XE-1019 concentration. Shoot length was reduced 46 %; stem dry weight was reduced 31 %; leaf area per shoot was reduced 44 %; inflorescence height was cut by 45 %; and inflorescence mass was reduced 48% with the 30 mg-liter⁻¹ XE-1019 treatment.

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Understanding the distribution, abundance and diversity of species and the mechanisms causing these patterns has been the interest of ecologists and taxonomists for decades. The exceptionally high plant diversity in the Fynbos biome has been well studied. Whilst early arguments suggested that the high plant diversity is not reflected in the arthropod diversity and that insect species richness is low compared to other comparable areas, these observations might have been hampered by the taxonomic impediment.

Abstract:

Intact Amazonian forests are often considered to be in a steady-state, where gains in growth and recruitment are offset by losses in mortality and where net carbon accumulation is close to zero. However, permanent plot data have shown that this ecosystem removes ca. 0.4 Pg of carbon per year from the atmosphere, approximately 5% of annual anthropogenic emissions. This thesis tests several competing hypothesized drivers of detected shifts in the structure and dynamics of intact forest, by assessing changes in functional and floristic composition over the last 30 years in over 100 long-term tree

Abstract:

The biodiversity in the Cape Floristic Region of South Africa faces many threats from anthropogenic sources such as the trade associated with our globalized economy. Aggressive plant pathogens in the genus Phytophthora are of particular concern because of their capacity to invade and change plant communities and their frequent dissemination via global trade. The fact that South Africa has a developing economy with many socioeconomic challenges, the capacity to monitor the abundance of plants imported for pests and pathogens is largely inadequate. Consequently, low cost methods to enhance post-

In this thesis I took a novel interdisciplinary approach involving remote sensing, ecological and palaeoecological techniques to address some of the most fundamental gaps in our understanding of Peruvian peatlands. The existence of these peatlands was only recently confirmed and although they were known to store large quantities of carbon, initial assessments of carbon stocks were highly uncertain. In addition, little was known of their biodiversity or how they have developed. Firstly, I used data fusion remote sensing and extensive field data to generate a high resolution, landscape scale map

Abstract:

The objectives of this study were to investigate temporal changes in the diversity of pine rockland Fabaceae, induced by anthropogenic factors. Herbarium collections spanning 170 years were used to analyze species frequency and richness. The results indicated temporal fluctuations in diversity with frequency of native species highest previous to the year 1920, and exotic-invasive species richness peaking after the 1960s. The accompanying species list resulting from the inventory included 122 Fabaceae species, in 56 genera, with an additional 19 species not previously listed for pine rocklands.

Two gene regions were used, trnLF (chloroplast genome) and ITS1 (nuclear genome). Neckera valentiniana showed no variation from the populations sampled. Results from Leptodon smithii based on the trn and ITS region suggest that forests once were widespread,

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.<br>Unlike most dry forests, Sand Forest has been largely untransformed by human activity until very recently, and provides a rare opportunity to investigate the dynamics of old-growth dry forests. Twinspan classiﬁcation and DCA ordination (Detrended Correspondence Analysis, an indirect gradient analysis) of a wide range of forest samples in north-eastern KwaZulu Natal, South Africa, indicated that Tropical Dry Forest species composition differs substantially from all other forests, and further, that Sand Forest samples, which occur on inland dune sands of P

Abstract:

Bibliography: pages 85-92.<br>Patterns of speciation and potential evolutionary pressures and constraints were investigated in the genus Thamnochortus. Phenetic methods were used to define boundaries of species prior to cladistic analyses. Comparative techniques were employed to investigate aspects of dispersal biology and fire survival habit. Methods of historical biogeography were used to evaluate vicariance and dispersal hypotheses. The broader understanding of species evolution gained in such a comparative study is important in conservation of species or areas, forming a basis for further

This Mediterranean-type climate region receives winter rainfall that averages between 250 and 650 mm annually over most of the region but reaches an average of more than 1000 mm in the mountains of the southwest and southern Cape.
