Aeshna viridis, a dragonfly generally considered to be a specialist as it in most cases choosesStratiotes aloides as its habitat, have suffered badly from habitat loss and fragmentationsthroughout Europe under the last century as the human demand of land use have grown. It´sthereby considered near threatened on EU red list and is included in the Habitat Directive.This means that it is protected by EU law as all EU Member States is committed to protect,monitor and report back to EU the status of the species.

Abstract:

It is well known that paper properties such as opacity, printing quality, brightness, and roughness are affected by the z-direction mineral filler distribution. In this study, the effect of four different parameters (filler, starch, chemical retention aids and the machine parameter (vacuum)), on the z-direction filler distribution in paper samples was investigated. Paper samples were made using an apparatus that simulates a suction box. Different levels of filler (PCC), chemical additives and vacuum were chosen based on a central composite design. The effect of these parameters on filler distr

We surveyed multiple sites at 17 locations, captured a total of 309 bats, documented habitat associations, and identified roosting sites. Data was then used to: 1) build habitat suitability maps (also called species distribution maps or SDMs) for each species in the state, 2) examine the environmental and cl

Abstract Eutrophication and global warming are increasingly causing deterioration of aquatic ecosystems, and boreal freshwaters are especially vulnerable to these changes. Anthropogenic pressures and landscape characteristics influencing the functioning and structure of ecosystems vary with spatial scale (grain size i.e. study unit and extent i.e. study area). This emphasises that the understanding of spatial scale is a vital element when studying species distribution patterns. Moreover, spatial scale is often neglected in ecological assessments, in which the degree of ecological integrity of

This includes nursery habitat where sharks are born and juveniles spend the early part of their life. However, our understanding of shark habitat use in the northeast Florida waters is limited.

Abstract:

Pallets play a very important role in whole distribution systems through the supply chain. Such a fact alone shows the importance of pallets in today’s fast growing global logistics. Due to the increasing number of regulations and policies regarding natural resource conservations and also sustainable development, the issue of pallet utilization, reuse and recycling matters became the core concern in most of the researches performed in this field.As a consequence, the presented report discusses the current problems, requirements and debates around pallets utilization in distribution systems in

Abstract:

U.S. manufacturers of wood household (SIC 2511), upholstered household (SIC 2512) and wood office furniture (SIC 2521) were surveyed to assess wood materials use within these three industry segments. The final sample frame contained 5,016 manufacturing locations. This investigation also provides a profile of the types of products produced and the channels of distribution used to move these products to the final consumer from a second sample of 347 manufacturers of wood household furniture. In 1989 the three industry segments surveyed consumed an estimated 2.3 billion board feet of hardwood l

Abstract:

Bibliography: pages 151-159.<br>The spatial distribution of trace elements in Pretoria is investigated by reference to the concentrations of lead, iron, manganese, zinc and copper in Jacaranda leaf samples. Different methods of sample preparation and analysis are examined. The variation in the trace element concentrations on a leaf and within a tree; temporal variations (daily and monthly); spatial variations (along a road, in different land-use zones); and the effect of meteorological variables (rain and wind) are investigated. Differences between the results from two annual surveys, the dist

Abstract:

Just as Latin used to be the lingua franca for science in Europe, English has now taken over this role in the modern world, and not just in academia. However, France has for a long time opposed the linguistic invasion of English, for example by introducing legislation to limit the use of English words in advertisements. But in a modern-day European context such protectiveness now appears to be out of place. This dissertation looks at the situation of French higher education policy which until recently outlawed the use of English in universities. But recent legislative developments have led Fr
