Although mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction cascades are known regulators of various aspects of plant biology, our knowledge of these systems has been largely restricted to a small subset of the MAPKs. However, global analyses are now revealing that many more of these kinases are probably engaged in modulating developmental and fitness adaptation processes in the plant kin
I slutet av 2014 hade 38 miljoner människor runt om i världen flytt sina hem till följd av krig, konflikt och våld. Att rädda liv och minska lidandet för dessa flyktingar är syftet med humanitärlogistik.

Strategic litigation stresses this existing normative tension, because it brings issues to court with an agenda that goes beyond the in
This report has been written as part of the ERASMUS+ project CLARITY. The aim of CLARITY is to enhance educators' skills for nurturing resilience and reducing climate anxiety of learners through trauma-informed and creative approaches that link inner and outer dimensions of change. Sustainability and climate education tend to focus on environmental facts, whilst little room is given to the human d
To investigate the differences in experienced stress and how this was moderated by the personality factors of work locus of control (WLOC) and extraversion between open plan-offices and activity based-offices (ABW), a questionnaire was sent out to the employees of nine different offices. 171 participants answered the questionnaire which consisted of five scales that measured perceived stress, dist
To understand the evolution of our galaxy, the chemical abundance patterns and trends within the stars of the different regions are explored. The process of synthesizing these elements reveals key details about the way the stars and, therefore, the galaxy formed. This project focused on the element potassium, K, and specifically its absorption line 7699 Å. The local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE)
The objective of this study was to assess the influence of user behaviour on the Smart Grid performance and to identify possible interfaces between end-users and the energy network. In order to get an image of the electricity customers attitude to Smart Grids and energy-efficiency, a questionnaire was conducted as a first step. Afterwards, a combination of thermal building simulations and the deri
In Tanzania, there has been a notable increase in the importation and sale of secondhand clothing, popularly referred to as Mitumba, with a significant focus on low-income populations.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) include a large group of chemicals that has been used for many decades because of their mechanical and chemical stability. They owe these unique features due to the strong C-F bonds in their molecules. PFAS can be fully or partly fluorinated and the more fluorinated they get, the more persistent they become. They have been used in several industries such
This text discusses the impact of economic liberalization in India in 1991.
