Towards climate-responsible peatlands management

In the early 1970’s, about 80 ha of rich fen, meadows and wet forest on the margins of the largeand pristine raised bog ‘Komosse’ in Southern Sweden were drained by ditches to promote spruce(Picea abies) growth and forestry production. Draining had a dramatic impact on forest productionon the nutrient-rich peaty soils downhill from the ditches. In 40 years, most of the meadows andfens had turned i

Pheromones

Pheromones are chemical signals, that is, carriers of information between individuals within a species. Pheromones induce a physiological or behavioral response in the receiving individual, and often play a crucial role in mate finding and other interactions among animals. Most pheromone research has been done with insects, and in particular with species regarded as pests. For these, application o

Numerical study of thermo-acoustic waves generation by a swirling flame using a new approach based on large eddy simulation

The new challenge of the Gas Turbine industry is to develop new technologies for meeting electricity demand growth and reducing harmful emissions. Thus, a better understanding of the combustion phenomenon and an improvement in simulation capabilities are needed. In this paper, we present a new technique that is computationally efficient, for capturing the thermo-acoustic waves in low Mach number c

Kinetic Characterization of dUTPase from Escherichia coli

The enzyme dUTPase catalyzes the hydrolysis of dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate, thereby preventing a deleterious incorporation of uracil into DNA. The best known dUTPase is that from Escherichia coli, which, like the human enzyme, consists of three identical subunits. In the present work, the catalytic properties of the E. coli dUTPase were investigated in the pH range 5-11. The enzyme was found to

Optimized Integration of Test Compression and Sharing for SOC Testing

The increasing test data volume needed to test core-based System-on-Chip contributes to long test application times (TAT) and huge automatic test equipment (ATE) memory requirements. TAT and ATE memory requirement can be reduced by test architecture design, test scheduling, sharing the same tests among several cores, and test data compression. We propose, in contrast to previous work that addresse

Phase noise analysis of the LC-tank CMOS oscillator

This paper presents a phase noise analysis of the very popular differential LC-tank CMOS oscillator. Closed-forms formulas for the phase noise in the 1/f2 region are derived under very general assumptions.

Conctraction-mediating receptors in human peripheral vessels with special reference to veins and lymphatics.

By means of a myograph, postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors were characterized in human superficial epigastric arteries and veins obtained from health subjects. The rank order of potency of subtype selective agonists could not be used for receptor characterization in these vessels, whereas antagonists gave distinct results. It was found that the arteries were endowed mainly by alph1-adrenoceptors b

Om att förstå ett hus : den dynamiska modellen : dokumentationsmetoder, vårdplan och restaureringsideologi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingens huvudsyfte är att försöka utreda hur man kommer till förståelse av det historiska huset och att diskutera vilken roll den historiska dokumentationen spelar i restaureringsprojekteringen. I restaurering som i allt annat arbete med arkitektur är förståelse ett nyckelord. Förståelse för de särskilda förutsättningar som ligger i uppgiften, i objektet, i skapanThe principal aim of the thesis is to evaluate the significance of the documentation of a building’s history for the work of restoring it and caring for it. Thus it may be said to address restoration as a hermeneutical problem, besides considering the relationships between the work of documentation; analyses of the resulting data; and the creative process in which the ideology of restoration is im
