Background: The dry transitional forests of the southern Amazonia have received little attention from a carbon cycling and ecosystem function perspective, yet they represent ecosystems that may be impacted by global climate change in the future. Aims: To compare the full carbon cycle for two 1-ha forest plots that straddle the ecotone between humid forest and dry forest in Amazonia, ca. 100 km fro

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid förbränning av bränslen som innehåller kol, till exempel ved, olja och biobränslen, bildas sotpartiklar då det finns ett underskott av syre, så kallad ofullständig förbränning. Det är sotpartiklarna i brasan som ger dess gula sken. Dessa partiklar är små och består till största delen av oförbränt kol från bränslet. De små sotpartiklarna är hälsofarliga då de följer In the thesis work, two X-ray scattering techniques, small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS and WAXS) were combined to study particle formation in-situ and non-intrusively in ethylene laboratory flames. Combining these two techniques enabled information concerning the size and concentration as well as the subnanometer structure of the nanoparticles within the 1–100 nm range there to be obtai

Approximately 1700 Pg of soil carbon (C) are stored in the northern circumpolar permafrost zone, more than twice as much C than in the atmosphere. The overall amount, rate, and form of C released to the atmosphere in a warmer world will influence the strength of the permafrost C feedback to climate change. We used a survey to quantify variability in the perception of the vulnerability of permafros

The success of a company increasingly depends on the efficiency and effectiveness on its activities along the product life cycle. In the effort of optimizing its activities, companies must integrate themselves. Due to the significance packaging has within many of these activities, it is of utmost importance to integrate product and packaging development activities in order to optimize processes.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Essentiella oljor från eukalyptusblad, Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn., utvunna genom destillation (HD) och superkritisk koldioxid (SC-CO2) -extraktion har jämförts. Utvalda huvudkomponenter från oljorna visar att komponenter i extrakt från SC-CO2 har övervägande högre molekylvikt än i dem från HD. Fysikalisk-kemiska egenskaper som molekylvikt, ångtryck och steriska faktA comparison of essential oils from leaves of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehn. obtained by hydrodistillation (HD) and supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction is presented. Selected major components of the oils showed a predominance of higher molecular weight components in the SC-CO2 extracts than in those obtained by HD. Physico chemical properties such as molecular weight, vapour pressure

Objective: Previous research has shown that elderly and disabled travelers using Special Transportation Services (STS) are injured without being involved in a vehicle crash. In order to estimate the true costs for these vehicle-related injuries, the focus needs to be adjusted towards an incident/traveler-oriented perspective. The aim of the project was thus to utilize such a perspective, in order

Laser-induced fluorescence is a clinical diagnostic tool, used for tumor demarcation and detection. The technique relies on the injection or topical application of a light sensitive drug called a photosensitizer. This substance has the ability to be accumulated to higher concentrations in cancer cells than in normal cells. This accumulation procedure takes from a few hours to several days, dependin

Popular Abstract in Swedish Arbetet undersöker utvecklingar i romanen och novellen av författare som växte upp under New Order (1966-1998). Det är baserat på en survey av de båda genrerna, främst novellen som är tämligen omfattande. Avhandlingen övergår i en diskursanalys av form och innehåll som är relaterade till frågor ställda i inledningen, vilka rör förändringar och riktningar, och specifikt The work examines developments in the novel and the short story of writers who grew up during the New Order era (1966-1998) in the period of reform post 1998. It is assumed and subsequently affirmed that the genres are developing, modern genres in dialogue with the past and present. The work's main use of theory is that of M. M. Bakhtin's ideas of dialogism. The assumption of 'novelization' is fra

During the last years the amount of electricity generated by Distributed Energy Resources (DER), especially wind turbines, has been increasing a lot. These Distributed Generation (DG) units are often connected to rural distribution networks, where they have a large impact on the voltage and the network losses. The network voltage at the customers point of connection is an important quality criteri

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and often causes pain and functional impairment. Despite its high burden on society, knowledge about the occurrence of OA and its associated mortality is sparse. The epidemiology of OA is difficult to determine due to the patients’ fluctuating symptoms and challenges in detecting and defining the radiographic disease. The specific aims of th

Nature-based tourism in the fragile Arctic environments is emerging as a major environmental concern, mainly due to extreme seasonality in these locations, the lack of suitable infrastructures and planning, and its interference with fragile ecosystems. In Iceland tourism has increased exponentially during the past decades, causing more environmental impacts on the country's natural recourses. Hiki

The aim of the study was to explore trajectories of breathlessness intensity by function and life-limiting illness diagnosis in the last 3 weeks of life in palliative care patients. A prospective, consecutive cohort study obtained point-of-care data of patients of Silver Chain Hospice Care Service (Perth, Australia) over the period 2011–2014 (n=6801; 51494 data-points).
