The terrestrial carbon cycle is an important component of the global carbon budget due to its large gross exchangefluxes with the atmosphere and their sensitivity to climate change. Terrestrial biosphere models showlarge uncertainties in simulating carbon fluxes, which impact global carbon budget assessments. The land surfacecarbon cycle is tightly controlled by soil moisture through plant physiol
Spatially and temporally explicit canopy water content (CWC) data are important for monitoring vegetation status, and constitute essential information for studying ecosystem-climate interactions. Despite many efforts there is currently no operational CWC product available to users. In the context of the Satellite Application Facility for Land Surface Analysis (LSA-SAF), we have developed an algoriSpatially and temporally explicit canopy water content (CWC) data are important for monitoring vegetationstatus, and constitute essential information for studying ecosystem-climate interactions.

The objective of this study is to describe a completely new 10-day gross primary production (GPP) product (MGPP LSA-411) based on data from the geostationary SEVIRI/MSG satellite within the LSA SAF (Land Surface Analysis SAF) as part of the SAF (Satellite Application Facility) network of EUMETSAT. The methodology relies on the Monteith approach. It considers that GPP is proportional to the absorbeThe objective of this study is to describe a completely new 10-day gross primary production (GPP) product(MGPP LSA-411) based on data from the geostationary SEVIRI/MSG satellite within the LSA SAF (Land SurfaceAnalysis SAF) as part of the SAF (Satellite Application Facility) network of EUMETSAT.The methodology relies on the Monteith approach.

Three different models (STEP–GENDEC–NOflux, Zhang2010, and Surfatm) are used to simulateNO, CO2, and NH3 fluxes at the daily scale for 2 years(2012–2013) in a semi-arid grazed ecosystem at Dahra(152401000 N, 152505600W, Senegal, Sahel).

Aims/hypothesis: Non-Western immigrants to Europe are at high risk for type 2 diabetes. In this nationwide study including incident cases of type 2 diabetes, the aim was to compare all-cause mortality (ACM) and cause-specific mortality (CSM) rates in first- and second-generation immigrants with native Swedes. Methods: People living in Sweden diagnosed with new-onset pharmacologically treated type

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis accounts for up to 20% of all patients with acute mesenteric ischemia in high-income countries. Acute mesenteric venous thrombosis is nowadays relatively more often diagnosed with intravenous contrast-enhanced computed tomography in the portal phase than at explorative laparotomy No high-quality comparative studies between anticoagulation alo
We study the adhesion and tensile behaviour of bi-layer interfaces comprising polyethylene, doped with carbonyl and hydroxyl functional groups emanating from ozone treatment, and - by means of density functional theory and classical atomistic modelling. The results show that the deformations are localized within the polymer and comprise chain slip, disentanglement and detachment from the substrate
In this study, the impacts of two different “methods” for teaching ethics as part of the religious education in the Swedish upper secondary school were compared by means of a non-randomized controlled trial in two parts, involving 542 students. The question was which “method” had the greatest capacity to generate long-term ethical awareness in the students. The intervention condition consisted of
Värmeböljor är den klimateffekt som väntas få störst påverkan på hälsan i Europa, och värmeböljor förväntas bli vanligare, intensivare och mer långvariga iframtiden.I tätorter skapas ett lokalt klimat som gör att befolkningen där kan bli mer exponerad för värme än i glesare bebyggda områden. Det gäller särskilt tätbebyggda områden med hög andel hårdgjorda ytor och lite vegetation. I sådana områden
Policy for science, technology, and innovation is increasingly supporting bottom-up approaches to setting strategic agendas for research and innovation (R&I). These processes are designed to bring industrial needs of R&I intensive sectors to the fore, while at the same time stimulating engagement of other relevant stakeholders, such as public and private research performers. This paper add
Although intermittent increases in inflammation are critical for survival during physical injury and infection, recent research has revealed that certain social, environmental and lifestyle factors can promote systemic chronic inflammation (SCI) that can, in turn, lead to several diseases that collectively represent the leading causes of disability and mortality worldwide, such as cardiovascular d
Flowering plants display an extraordinary floral- and reproductive diversity. Variation in the size, shape, colour and scent of flowers, and in systems and strategies of mating, is ubiquitous in comparisons of different species, but also exists among different conspecific populations. Diversity in these characters is central to the evolution of flowering plants and the formation of new species. In
