Regime shifts in lake ecosystems can occur in response to both abrupt and continuous climate change, and the imprints they leave in paleolimnological records allow us to investigate and better understand patterns and processes governing ecological changes on geological time scales. This synthesis investigates paleolimnological records that display apparent regime shifts and characterizes the shift
This study aims to assess the performance and importance of mangrove ecosystem services, focusing on supporting, provisioning, and regulating, and to investigate temporal changes in mangrove cover in Maputo Bay, Mozambique. It also examines the drivers behind these changes. The research questions address stakeholder perceptions of ecosystem services and their potential trade-offs, temporal changes
CO2 is the most important greenhouse gas in terms of radiative forcing, and it is therefore highly important that we can track our emissions and the effectiveness of carbon sequestration measures. While the national carbon inventories can be highly accurate, there is general conflict of interest, as national carbon inventories are bottom up estimates in part based on self-reportings from private a
Although currently available antimuscarinic agents are the standard of care for overactive bladder (OAB), they are limited by certain side effects, particularly dry mouth and constipation. Research aimed at discovering new therapies for OAB has resulted in the identification of some promising drugs. Investigations of pharmacologic targets in the central nervous system (CNS) have yielded encouragin
Several in vitro studies have emphasized the importance of toll-like receptor/myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) signaling in the inflammatory response to Streptococcus pyogenes. Since the extent of inflammation has been implicated in the severity of streptococcal diseases, we have examined here the role of toll-like receptor/MyD88 signaling in the pathophysiology of experimental S. pyogene
Hypothesis: The self-assembly of long tail sugar-based surfactants into worm-like micelles has recently been demonstrated, and the rheological properties of such systems have been shown to be tuneable through subtle modifications of the molecular characteristics of the surfactant monomer. In particular, the anomeric configuration of the hexadecylmaltoside headgroup was shown to induce profound cha
Depending on specific configuration and design, a variety of physical phenomena is present in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). These processes include multi-component gas flow, energy and mass transfer of chemical species in composite domains and sites. Due to the electrochemical reactions, generation and consumption of chemical species together with electric current production are involved at the
During translation, mRNA molecules are incidentally damaged, leaving the ribosome unable to reach or recognize the stop codon and thus stalled with mRNA and a potentially harmful polypeptide product attached to tRNA in the ribosomal P-site. In bacteria, a process called trans-translation has evolved, where a protein-RNA complex (smpB-tmRNA) mimicks the role of aminoacyl charged tRNA in the ribosom

Idag tar både kändisar och icke-kända personer del av den sociala plattformen Instagram. Denna uppsats kommer att undersöka hur det finns en social status offline i att ha många följare och likes hos den vanliga användaren då kända personer har mer social status och därmed syns mer på Instagram. Mycket forskning har gjorts på influencers och kändisar, därmed kommer denna uppsats undersöka den vanl
Den arktiska ögruppen Svalbard har fram till första världskriget betraktats som terra nullius, ingenmansland. Nationer från hela Europa har i århundraden bedrivit olika ekonomiska verksamheter i området, bl a fiske och gruvdrift. Genom en traktat från 1920, den s k Svalbardtraktaten, erkändes Norges suveränitet över Svalbard samtidigt som lika rätt att bedriva ekonomisk verksamhet på land och terr
Climate change and human impact play a huge role in the sustainability and development of ecosystems and the services they offer to societies over temporal and spatial scales. Fossil pollen-based estimates provide unique information on past land cover change, but to date there are not many methods able to create spatially continuous maps and have a fine scale of land cover changes inferred from po
Throughout history industries have been located adjacent to water courses to use water in the process, for transport and release of wastewater. This is also the case along the Arboga river. Due to climate change the estimated increase and greater variations in temperature and precipitation may induce a greater risk of flood, landslide and erosion along Arboga river, increasing the spread of pollut
A science project as part of a student’s curriculum, which we call student science, might be the answer to two problems for a low-income country like Ethiopia: conventional science can be expensive and many students lack training in practical skills. Earlier studies have been conducted with respect to lay people (citizens or students) conducting (parts of) research (e.g. citizen science), but rare

The quantification of species along environmental gradients has long been the subject of study regarding natural plant communities and, more recently, ecosystems disturbed by anthropogenic emissions of eutrophying and acidifying substances. We studied 527 sites in southern Swedish deciduous forests divided into two regions, with mean nitrogen depositions of 17 and 9 kg ha(-1) y(-1). The higher dep
Landslides often cause significant casualties and economic losses, and therefore landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) has become increasingly urgent and important. The potential of deep learning (DL) like convolutional neural networks (CNN) based on landslide causative factors has not been fully explored yet. The main target of this study is the investigation of a GIS-based LSM in Zanjan, Iran a
Lately, evidence for early-Holocene emerging sedentism has been suggested among foragers in Northern Europe. The core of this suggested sedentism lies in the increasing dependency on large-scale fishing and mass consumption of fish and a territorial behaviour associated with access to the best fishing locations. This territoriality might also be associated with increasing numbers of people settlin
