The biogeochemical cycling of silicon (Si) along the land-to-ocean continuum is studied by a variety of research fields and for a variety of scientific reasons. However, there is an increasing need to refine the methodology and the underlying assumptions used to determine biogenic silica (BSi) concentrations. Recent evidence suggests that contributions of nonbiogenic sources of Si dissolving durin
This essay explores the magistratal lists (fasti etcetera) covering the period of 509 to 219 BC by looking at an accumulation of political capital and the length of magistratal careers. This essay attempts to give evidence to several theories for the early and middle Republic, primarily the fact that retirement of consulars occurs around the age of 60-65 and that one started one's consular car
Despite the so-called ‘great retreat’, in which people arguably are distancing themselves from the political sphere and civic engagement, the last two years has seen an upsurge in political activities. Outside the realms of institutionalised politics, i.e. political parties, lies a whole terrain of alternative political activities, including social movements and media institutions. Following the E
The aim of this dissertation is to investigate a number of U.S. avant-garde films using Deleuzian film-philosophy in order to describe their thought. I develop the taxonomy of cinematic images created by the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze by introducing a new type of image. The notion of the sobjective image I conceptualize points to the immanent semiosis that characterizes certain films. The s
Organisations have flattened and increasingly rely on teamwork. Therefore, colleagues play an increasingly important role in stimulating employee motivation. Adopting Self-Determination Theory as a guiding framework, the aim of this field experiment was to examine whether team members can be trained in supporting each other's basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness and,
One excuse for not making use of the visual sources is the difficulty in interpreting them. Before the historian can even try to make valid use of an image, he has to know what he is looking for, when and for what purpose it was made, in what circumstances, current visual conventions, technical and other constraints.1 Thus, extracting information from visual sources and combining it with literary
This thesis investigates the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions among architects in Sweden. Architects are currently experiencing headwinds and decreased demands for their services as increasing interest rates and a weak economy have contributed to a decline in construction activity. Simultaneously, advancements in AI have introduced a range of innovative technologies to the field
China’s financial actions along the BRI network has sparked a lot of controversies, one of these being the alleged usage of Debt Trap Diplomacy (DTD) in order to gain access to resources through debt relief that they otherwise would not be able to reach through traditional means. DTD practices can be considered part of the International Political Economy’s ‘blind spots’ due to their complexity and

Recent work from several laboratories has demonstrated that proteolytic mechanisms significantly contribute to the molecular interplay between Streptococcus pyogenes, an important human pathogen, and its host. Here we describe the identification, purification and characterization of a novel extracellular cysteine proteinase produced by S.pyogenes. This enzyme, designated IdeS for Immunoglobulin G-
