Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are copper-containing metalloenzymes that can cleave the glycosidic link in polysaccharides. This could become crucial for production of energy-efficient biofuels from recalcitrant polysaccharides. Although LPMOs are considered oxygenases, recent investigations have shown that H2O2 can also act as a co-substrate for LPMOs. Intriguingly, LPMOs generate H2

Cities are key actors in reducing both the causes of climate change (mitigation) and its impact (adaptation), and many have developed separate mitigation and adaptation strategies and measures. However, in order to maximize outcomes, both scholars and practitioners are increasingly calling for more integrated and synergetic approaches. Unfortunately, related research remains scarce and fragmented,

Trädgårdsboken om JORD ger svar på det mesta du behöver veta om jord i den egna trädgården. Vad är jord? Hur påverkar den oss och vår odling? Hur kan man förbättra, gödsla och underhålla olika sorters jord? Vilket förhållande har våra mest älskade växter till jorden? Jorden är nyckeln till allt. Sandlätt, torr och ljus eller mörk och en aning trött på hösten? Kunskap och omsorg om jorden är grun

Våra jordar är basen för en hållbar matproduktion. Vi har tagit jorden och jordarna för självklara men jordens hälsa är en garanti för framtiden. Jorden vi trampar på är av största vikt för allt levande på land. Med tanke på den alarmerande hastighet med vilken världens jordar håller på att förstöras är det viktigt att fästa uppmärksamheten på jord som en värdefull resurs som måste bevaras och utn

To combat the problem of encryption key recovery from main memory using cold boot-attacks, various solutions has been suggested, but most of these have been implemented on the x86 architecture, which is not prevalent in the smartphone market, where instead ARM dominates. One existing solution does exist for the ARM architecture but it is limited to key sizes of 128 bits due to not being able to ut

‘Creativity’ has become a buzzword throughout educational debates and strategy papers worldwide. By linking creativity to innovative capacity, it is commonly associated with the challenges and opportunities as generated by the knowledge economy. While the importance of creative approaches to learning is generally accepted, it has proven much more difficult to define and potentially assess skills a

We analyze how the content of ecosystem service research has evolved since the early 1990s. Conducting a computational bibliometric content analysis we process a corpus of 14,118 peer-reviewed scientific article abstracts on ecosystem services (ES) from Web of Science records. To provide a comprehensive content analysis of ES research literature, we employ a latent Dirichlet allocation algorithm.

Decomposition of soil organic matter (SOM) contributes significantly to the global carbon (C) cycle and climate feedbacks. SOM decomposition depends on soil microbial activities, and these activities are driven by the availability of C and other nutrients. Plant root exudates are known to alter decomposition of SOM, a phenomenon referred to as rhizosphere priming effects (RPE).

Permafrost warming has the potential to amplify global climate change, because when frozen sediments thaw it unlocks soil organic carbon. Yet to date, no globally consistent assessment of permafrost temperature change has been compiled. Here we use a global data set of permafrost temperature time series from the Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost to evaluate temperature change across permafPermafrost warming has the potential to amplify global climate change, because when frozen sediments thaw it unlocks soil organic carbon.

Huntington's disease (HD) presents clinically with a triad of motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. Cognitive symptoms often occur early within the disease progression, prior to the onset of motor symptoms, and they are significantly burdensome to people who are affected by HD. In order to determine the suitability of mouse models of HD in recapitulating the human condition, these models mus

To maintain dairy cattle health and welfare at commensurable levels, analysis of the behaviors occurring between cows should be performed. This type of behavioral analysis is highly dependent on reliable and robust tracking of individuals, for it to be viable and applicable on-site. In this article, we introduce a novel method for continuous tracking and data-marker based identification of individ

Understanding the influence of the cutting edge geometry on the development of cutting forces during the milling process is of high importance in order to predict the mechanical loads on the cutting edge as well as the dynamic behavior on the milling tool. The work conducted in this study involves the force development over the entire engagement of a flute in milling, from peak force during the en

Background and purpose — Pelvic obliquity, common in individuals with cerebral palsy (CP), changes the muscle force vector on the hip joint and probably affects the risk of hip dislocation. We evaluated a new method for measurement of hip displacement in CP that takes the pelvic obliquity into account: the pelvic adjusted migration percentage (PAMP). Children and methods — From the Swedish surveil

In this paper we study the annealed coupling of an Ising model with 2-dimensional causal dynamical triangulation model. After a short review of previous results, we prove the existence of the so-called critical line and derive its analytical properties and asymptotics. In addition, relations between the model and its dual are investigated.

Purpose: To compare experiences for adverse events, especially sexual abuse, and mental health in a group of high school students in out-of-home care with a representative sample of peers of the same age and similar educational attainment living with their parents. Materials and methods: A sample of 5839 students in the third year of Swedish high school, corresponding to a response rate of 59.7%,
