Aim: To evaluate (1) whether three migratory nightjar species (Family Caprimulgidae) adhere to Bergmann's rule, (2) whether environmental factors on the breeding or wintering grounds determine body size, and (3) which mechanistic hypotheses best explain Bergmannian patterns in body size. Location: North and South America; Europe and Africa. Taxon: Eastern whip-poor-will (Antrostomus vociferus), Co

Here, we use carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrous oxide (N2O) and radon (222Rn) data from the Saclay ICOS tall tower in France to estimate CO2, CH4 and CO fluxes within the station footprint from January 2017 to October 2024 and N2O fluxes from February 2019 to October 2024 using the Radon Tracer Method (RTM). We first performed a sensitivity study of this method appl

Background: Generating parasite genomes is challenging when little of the DNA in infected host tissue is from the parasite. We used selective whole genome amplification (SWGA) to generate genomic data from wildlife samples of the avian haemosporidian Haemoproteus majoris (lineage PARUS1) and its host, the blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus). Methods: We used SWGA to amplify the parasite DNA in nine avi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under den senaste tiden har problematiken med klimatförändringarna debatterats livligt. För att kunna förutspå den framtida omfattningen av klimatförändringarna och vilka konsekvenser dessa kommer att ha är det ytterst relevant att känna till utbytet av växthusgaser mellan atmosfär och jordens alla ekosystem. Arktiska ekosystem är ytterst känsliga för den globala uppvärArctic ecosystems play a key role in the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle, but spa-tially explicit data on the C exchange is scarce in these remote areas. The global warming is especially dominant in the Arctic, and these areas are vul-nerable to climate change. It is therefore important to quantify and understand the processes affecting the C dynamics in these regions. In this thesis, the land-atmosp

BACKGROUND: Cystatin C is a low molecular weight cysteine proteinase inhibitor whose plasma or serum concentrations have been shown to be better correlated with glomerular filtration rate than serum creatinine concentrations. Routine assays for cystatin C are based on use of polyclonal antibodies and immunoturbidimetric and nephelometric designs. This study aimed to develop a double-monoclonal imm

Yearly a large number of residence permit with limited duration is granted to women who immigrated to Sweden through attachment relationships. Couples who have not been cohabitants will be granted a residence permit with limited duration with a two-year probationary period. If the relationship contains after the two-year time limit has expired, a residence permit can be granted. Even if the relati

Nya läkemedel med bärnstenssyra för att hjälpa sjuka barn Vi människor måste äta varje dag för att vi ska orka med våra liv. Maten vi äter omvandlas till en energirik molekyl som kallas för ATP. ATP används av alla celler i våra kroppar. I alla celler finns det ett kraftverk där omvandlingen till den energirika molekylen sker. Detta kraftverk kallas för mitokondrien. Ibland blir det fel när mitok

Purpose: Recent developments in external radiotherapy and its utilization with artificial in- telligence (AI) enables advanced treatment plans for a range of different disease sites. By adapting to the anatomy of the day, target coverage can be ensured while sparing more healthy tissue. The purpose of this project was to study the feasibility and benefits of daily cone beam computed tomography (CB

We have studied the geometry and singlet-triplet energy difference of two mono-nuclear Ni2+ models related to the active site in [NiFe] hydrogenase. Multiconfigurational second-order perturbation theory based on a complete active-space wavefunction with an active space of 12 electrons in 12 orbitals, CASPT2(12,12), reproduces experimental bond lengths to within 1 pm. Calculated singlet-triplet ene

Den politiska ordningen i rymden har tidigare betraktats som en förlängning av den politiska ordningen på jorden. I den här avhandlingen hävdar jag istället att den framväxande politiska ordningen i rymden definierar internationella förhållanden på jorden. Nya insikter om den politiska dynamiken i rymden ger oss därför en bättre förståelse för den nuvarande världsordningen. Dessutom ger en fördjupPolitical order in outer space has so far been perceived as an extension of the terrestrial political order. In contrast, I argue that the political order emerging in outer space defines international relations on Earth. Therefore, with a refreshed understanding of the political dynamics of outer space, we will be better equipped to grasp the contemporary world order. Moreover, deeper knowledge ab

With the emergence of the digital spaces, modern society has been witnessing the transformation of the public sphere, which is mostly altered by the new means of communication. Simultaneously, civic discussions that are taking place within the public sphere, are inevitably going through the same transformation and are now more and more often found in the digital spaces. This thesis is taking on th

En kartläggning som gjordes av Föreningen Svenskar i Världen år 2015 visade att antalet utlandssvenskar som var bosatta i Spanien under mer än sex månader per år uppgick till mer än 90 000. Sådana gränsöverskridande förflyttningar påverkar i vissa fall den svenska skattebasen eftersom utflyttade personer många gånger går från att vara obegränsat skattskyldiga för samtliga sina inkomster till att eA survey carried out by the independent organization Swedes Worldwide in 2015 showed that over 90 000 Swedes spent more than six months a year in Spain. These emigration movements sometimes affect the Swedish tax base since individuals are no longer liable to pay income tax on all incomes and only become liable to pay income tax on incomes having a source in Swedish territory. Compared to other c

Maritime archaeology excavations, even in a more complex environment, have the same objectives and requirements as terrestrial ones: documenting digging operations to analyze data in the best way, interpreting it, and producing new knowledge for the benefit of multiple communities. 3D documentation and management methodologies have spread widely among practitioners; however, 3D comprehensive tools

The Mo/Cu-dependent CO dehydrogenase from O. carboxidovorans is an enzyme that is able to catalyse CO oxidation to CO2; moreover, it also expresses hydrogenase activity, as it is able to oxidize H2. Here, we have studied the dihydrogen oxidation catalysis by this enzyme using QM/MM calculations. Our results indicate that the equatorial oxo ligand of Mo is the best suited base for catalysis.
