As urban areas expand rapidly worldwide, wildlife is exposed to a wide range of novel environmental stressors, such as increased air pollution and artificial light at night. Birds in highly polluted and/or urbanized habitats have been found to have increased antioxidant protection, which is likely important to avoid accumulation of oxidative damage, which can have negative fitness consequences.

Popular Abstract in English The present thesis investigates ways in which motion is described in Xenophon’s Anabasis, written in the 2nd part of the third century BC. The Anabasis tells the story of the Ten Thousand – the Greek soldiers who marched from Sardis to Babylon, and from there back to the Greek coast of the Black Sea – covering a great variety of motion events. The study examines passageThe thesis compares different prepositions and verbal prefixes denoting direction in Ancient Greek. The corpus covers passages in Xenophon’s Anabasis where such directional elements are used. In this work, it has been examined how the usage of prepositions differs from that of prefixes when they denote a concrete motion in space, what reasons lie behind their usage, and how various directional ele

Climate change and environmental awareness have been a focus topic in the past years due to the increase of greenhouse emissions in the atmosphere. A significant part of the problem is the greenhouse gas emissions caused by the construction industry, whether in the early stages of construction or over the life of a building. In order to reduce human impact, several actors in the building and const

Popular Abstract in English Imagine you are sunbathing on a sandy beach, while reading the latest Dan Brown book. Once the book is finished, you look at the waves and notice that in one place, they decelerate and become large. Excited by your reading, you imagine that beneath those larger waves there is a ship containing a treasure in it (most likely sunk by the Illuminati during World War II). BuThis thesis describes how photoemission stimulated by an attosecond pulse train (APT) can be used to extract information on electron correlation in simple quantum systems such as atoms. The emission of the electron by an APT induces a reorganization of the electrons remaining in the ion core. This reorganization causes a change in the trajectory of the emitted electron. An infrared (IR) field is u

Stephen Batley - Threesixty The idea I am working on, along with my two partners, is a new alternative ecological fuel for fireplaces – CoffeeBricks. CoffeeBricks are made from recycled coffee waste and burn 4x longer than wood with more heat and flame, whilst releasing fewer emissions. We came up with the idea whilst working through the Opportunity Recognition course in the Masters Program. I am

Sub-cellular biological components are complex systems that work together to control and maintain cellular activity and health. It is useful to study the basic elements that constitute the sub-cellular components using model systems, which mimic certain parts of the overall system, in order to better understand the system as a whole. Here we present a number of tools, which enable the study of a f

Water exchange of square-planar Pd(H2O)42+ has been studied as a function of temperature (240 to 345 K) and pressure (0.1 to 260 MPa, at 324 K) by measuring the 17/O-FT-NMR line-widths of the resonance from coordinated water at 27.11 and 48.78 MHz. The following exchange parameters were obtained: k298ex = (560 ± 40) s−1, ΔH* = (49.5 ± 1.9) kJ mol−1, ΔS* = – (26 ± 6) J K−1 mol−1 and ΔV* = – (2.2 ±

Swedish law regulates employee protection on business transfers in the Employment Protection Act (1982: 80) or (LAS) and also the Act (1976: 589) on co-determination in working life (MBL). The Swedish rules have not always looked as they do now and have emerged in the light of the European Union (EU) and of Council Directive 2001/23 / EC of 12 March 2001 on the approximation of the laws of the Mem

Background: Under inflammatory conditions, T cell-dependent (TD) protein antigens induce proinflammatory T-and B-cell responses. In contrast, tolerance induction by TD antigens without costimulation triggers the development of regulatory T cells. Under both conditions, IgG antibodies are generated, but whether they have different immunoregulatory functions remains elusive. Objective: It was shown
