Predicting pine sawfly population densities and subsequent defoliation with pheromone traps

Field in Finland to develop a monitoring and prediction trials were conducted from 1989 to 1993 method using pheromone traps for European pine sawfly (Neadiprion sertifer Geoffr.) population densities and needle defoliation. Three traps per site were baited with 100 mug of(2S,3S,7S) - 3,7 - dimethyl - 2 - pentadecyl acetate (diprionyl) at sites representing advanced pine stands. The number of over

Genetically Engineered Plants: Improved stress tolerance, growth and facilitated protein purification

Heterologous genes were expressed in plants in which the overall goal was to increase the value of the final crop. Various aspects were explored and evaluated, such as improving the stress tolerance, enhancing the availability of oxygen in growing cells and producing rare proteins with increased degrees of purity. In Nature several protective mechanisms against environmental stress have evolved. W

Four valued logic: supporting complexity in knowledge sharing processes

An essential problem of ‘knowledge management’ is the impossibility of codifying ‘knowledge’ which is embedded in human agents. It can never be straightforward for members of an organization to share what they know with one another. Such a process might be facilitated, but would be difficult to ‘manage’. In recognition of this, organizations have sought ways to support knowledge sharing processes,

Psychoacoustics and hallucinating schizophrenics. A psychobiological approach to schizophrenia

Popular Abstract in Swedish Psykoakustik och hallucinerande schizofrena Hallucinationer för hörseln är ett stort problem vid schizofreni. Många har försökt förklara men ingen lyckats. Denna avhandling påvisar avvikelser vid schizofrenisjukdomen vilka kan utgöra grundstenar för framtida förståelse av detta plågsamma symptom. Vad är psykoakustik ? Psykoakustik kan beskrivas som psykofysiska studiePsychoacoustic experiments have been conducted for schizophrenic patients with auditory hallucinations in their case history and for reference subjects. The aim of the thesis has been to assess differences between the two groups of subjects. The experiments consisted of tests on perceptual grouping mechanisms measuring how sound with high and low pitches is separated into perceptual streams (Study

Evaluation of Traceability Recovery in Context: A Taxonomy for Information Retrieval Tools

Background: Development of complex, software intensive systems generates large amounts of information. Several researchers have developed tools implementing information retrieval (IR) approaches to suggest traceability links among artifacts. Aim: We explore the consequences of the fact that a majority of the evaluations of such tools have been focused on benchmarking of mere tool output. Method: T

Collaborative Healthcare Innovation in Sweden

Abstract in UndeterminedThe medical technology (medtech) industry in Sweden is situated withina complex innovation ecosystem, in which various stakeholders from the public,private and academic sectors need to collaborate to meet demands on effective andeffi cient healthcare. Demographics are changing and those in need of healthcare arenot only larger in numbers than ever but they are also more kno
