A candidate gene-based association study to investigate potentially adaptive genetic variation in European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.)
(2014-01-24)Climate change models predict higher annual mean temperatures as well as a decrease of precipitation during summer months for Germany. Possible consequences for trees are a prolonged growing season, a higher risk of late ... -
Aboveground and belowground response of European beech to drought: field studies and experiments
(2007-10-12)Global warming is predicted to shift the seasonal distribution of precipitation in Germany to reduced rainfall in summer and enhanced precipitation in winter. The estimated rates of future climatic change are expected to ... -
Acquisition and Characterization of Canopy Gap Patterns of Beech Forests
(2019-11-22)Canopy gap research in European beech-dominated forests has experienced a remarkable upswing in the last decades. It contributes to answering both fundamental ecological questions and to designing silvicultural interventions ... -
Actions of lignocellulolytic enzymes on Abies grandis(grand fir) wood for application in biofuel production
(2010-11-02)Abies grandis is a fast growing coniferous tree with a high potential for sustainable wood production and applications in the wood product industry. However, for the possible applications ... -
Adaptations of pyrophilous insects to burnt habitats: Odor signals, infrared receptors and behavior
(2020-06-12)Pyrophilous insects are known to invade recently burnt habitats for food, mating and oviposition. They can approach fires due to their ability to recognize fire-specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Moreover, some ... -
Advancing our understanding of animal dispersal and functional connectivity in human-altered landscapes: conceptual considerations and their empirical and simulation-based demonstration
(2020-08-21)Dispersal, the movement from a natal site to a new breeding site, is a key process in ecology and evolution. By determining the dynamics and distribution of populations and gene flow among them, dispersal is essential for ... -
Agricultural residues and the wood of umbrella tree (Musanga cecropioides) as raw materials for the development of reduced emission particleboards
(2020-05-14)Against the background of the soaring wood prices, the existing wood and waste wood scarcity in the wood-based panel industry, the demand for a more efficient use of the raw material wood, and the fact that wood materials ... -
Alternative Methoden zur Biomasseschätzung auf Einzelbaumebene unter spezieller Berücksichtigung der k-Nearest Neighbour (k-NN) Methode
(2007-01-29)This study deals with biomass estimation for single trees, that is important in the actual climate change discussion and for the implementation of the Kyoto protocol. In this context two ... -
Amphiphilic carbohydrate-containing compounds for multifunctional nano/macro structures
(2020-11-18)In living organisms, carbohydrate-containing compounds, such as glycoproteins, glycopeptides, and glycolipids, play key roles in numerous physiological and pathological events via carbohydrate-protein interactions amplified ... -
An investigation of temporal variability of CO2 fluxes in a boreal coniferous forest and a bog in central Siberia : from local to regional scale
(2019-07-19)Boreal forests and peatlands are the major types of vegetation in northern Eurasia. These ecosystems store large amount of carbon in their vegetation and soil, thus are essential ecosystems to understand the global carbon ... -
Anaerobic oxidation of methane in paddy soil
(2020-11-18)The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a globally important CH4 sink that offsets potential CH4 emission into the atmosphere. AOM is estimated to consume up to 90% of CH4 produced in marine sediments before it reaches ... -
Analyse der prozessabhängigen Kosten der mechanisierten Buchenaufarbeitung
(2021-04-29)This dissertation focuses on the analysis of the process-dependent costs of mechanized beech processing within a productivity model. Although numerous models exist that describe the mechanized processing time, these models ... -
Analyse und praktische Umsetzung unterschiedlicher Methoden des <i>Randomized Branch Sampling</i>
(2003-07-15)Randomized Branch Sampling (RBS) is a multistage sampling procedure, which uses the natural branching of a tree in order to take samples for estimating one or several characteristics of the ... -
Analyse von Schälschadensinventuren in Harz und Solling
(2015-06-18)The present work represents the continuation of a project that examined the causal relationships between environmental factors and the occurrence of bark stripping on spruce by red deer in the Harz and Solling mountains ... -
Analysing and modelling spatial patterns to infer the influence of environmental heterogeneity using point pattern analysis, individual-based simulation modelling and landscape metrics
(2020-05-11)One of the main goals of ecology is to understand processes underlying patterns. Because presumably all ecological processes are spatially explicit, especially spatial patterns can contain a lot of information about the ... -
Analysis of economic diversification and financial liquidity effects in sustainably managed forest enterprises
(2021-09-16)Sustainably managed forest enterprises are required to apply and adapt strategies to be able to distribute economic risk and secure financial liquidity. In this context, this thesis analyzes the possibilities of economic ... -
Anatomical, physiological and molecular responses of European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) to drought
(2016-03-30)Summary European beech (Fagus sylvatica, L.) is a dominant forest tree species of high economic and ecological value in Central Europe. The natural distribution range of the species across Central Europe is determined by ... -
Anpassung antioxidativer Systeme an Licht und Temperatur:
(2001-05-21)Unfavourable environmental conditions can cause oxidative stress in aerobic organisms. The acclimation of the antioxidative system in beech (Fagus sylvatica) and spotted nettle (Coleus ... -
