Abstract:

<p>According to the exploitation ecosystem hypothesis (EEH), terrestrial ecosystems are characterized by well defined trophic levels and strong trophic interactions with community level tropic cascades. In unproductive terrestrial habitats as tundra heaths, the energy shunt from litter and apparent competition between herbivores and detritivores are expected to be important for the structure and dynamics of the invertebrate community. The aim of this study was to test this hypothesis by investigating if plant litter accumulation was affecting the invertebrate community on a nutrient-poor tundr

Abstract:

As climate-driven changes in phenology are becoming more apparent, the need to quantify these changes is increasing. An important challenge in detecting phenological changes is that between-year variation in phenology is large. Between-year variation determines the statistical power of comparisons between contemporary and historical observations. For 44 plant species with different distributions across Sweden, geographicand inter-specific differences in between-year variation in different phenophases (budburst, flowering, ripe fruits, and leaf fall) was studied.

Abstract:

Habitat loss is the primary driver of global amphibian declines and thus preserving habitat is our best hope for preserving species at risk. The habitat needs of amphibians are complex due to terrestrial and aquatic requirements throughout their life history. Many pond breeding amphibians spend the majority of their life cycle within terrestrial environments and thus terrestrial habitats are critical to their persistence. Cryptic and fossorial behavior makes observations of amphibians in terrestrial habitats difficult. Our knowledge of the terrestrial ecology of amphibians is therefore incred

Abstract:

Isoprene (2-methyl 1, 3-butadiene) is the most abundant non-methane BVOC (biogenic volatile organic compound) released into the atmosphere. Terrestrial plants are the primary producers of isoprene and release 500-750 million tonnes of isoprene per year, to protect themselves from abiotic environmental stresses such as heat and reactive oxygen species. Many studies have explored isoprene production but very little is known about consumption of isoprene by microbes.

Abstract:

The present study examines the cycling of elements in the biosphere. The first chapter proposes a theoretical framework for this cycling based on both metal/ligand theory and mass balance studies. Empirical modelling serves as an alternative and complement to mass balance studies in predicting the export of elements from watersheds. Watershed output (export per unit area per unit of time) is predicted using atmospheric deposition rates, an element bonding strength index, the watershed area and a forest classification (deciduous vs coniferous). Finally the last chapter examines, in a speculativ

Abstract:

Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a potent neurotoxin that acts by blocking the pore region of voltage-gated sodium channels in nerve and muscle tissue. This causes paralysis, and often death due to asphyxiation. Interestingly, TTX is found in an array of organisms ranging from bacterial species to vertebrates. Further, TTX is found in both aquatic and terrestrial environments. This range of taxa and environments has led to three common lines of study for ecological research on this toxin: production, predation, and identification of novel TTX bearing taxa.

The effect of exogenous C, light and fungal partner on germination and establishment were studied in vitro for three terrestrial orchid and one epiphyte orchid. I found that terr

Air concentrations further suggest that the reason for this accumulation in elevated areas is increased atmospheric deposition from distant sources and not from temperature-induced revolatilization from local terrestrial
