State of science in carbon budget assessments for temperate forests and grasslands

With the abundance of observations and advancement in modeling, temperate regions allow for a comprehensive comparison of the data-driven and process-based methods of carbon budget estimation. This chapter presents a review of the latest methodologies for carbon budget and component flux estimation, and the key components in the temperate carbon budget, such as forest regrowth, and summarizes unce

Biokinetics and dosimetry of 18F-PSMA-1007 in patients with prostate cancer

Purpose: Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) using prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligands is a method for imaging prostate cancer. A recent tracer, 18F-PSMA-1007, offers advantages concerning production and biokinetics compared to the standard tracer (68Ga-PSMA-11). Until now, radiation dosimetry data for this ligand was limited to the material of three healthy vol

Cellular Localization for Autonomous Driving: A Function Pull Approach to Safety-Critical Wireless Localization

Cellular localization has received marked attention in academia and in industry, as indicated by a rapidly expanding volume of literature specific to vehicular environments. Impressive results have been shown for a number of problems as measured by metrics such as accuracy and latency. This article identifies five important requirements for cellular localization for safety-critical systems with a

The role of wingbeat frequency and amplitude in flight power

Body-mounted accelerometers provide a new prospect for estimating power use in flying birds, as the signal varies with the two major kinematic determinants of aerodynamic power: wingbeat frequency and amplitude. Yet wingbeat frequency is sometimes used as a proxy for power output in isolation. There is, therefore, a need to understand which kinematic parameter birds vary and whether this is predic

Contested Pictures of Persuasion : American Images of Foetuses in Swedish Antiabortion Campaigns of the 1970s and 1980s

This chapter explores the circulation, use and public discussion of images of human foetuses travelling from the US to Sweden in the period before and after the introduction of abortion on demand in Sweden in 1975. In this period, new antiabortion groups formed and started to use graphic images of aborted foetuses in their campaigns. This chapter highlights the transnational and transmedial charac
