The possibility that long-term atmospheric nitrogen pollution and fertilization of forest soil may serve as a basis for adaptation for enhanced transformation rates of NO3- and NH4+ in soil. bacteria was elucidated in a laboratory bioassay. Bacteria extracted from soils that had been fertilized at various rates for the last 30 yr were characterised with respect to their capability to reduce or oxi
The purpose of this study was to evaluate 10 process-based terrestrial biosphere models that were used for the IPCC fifth Assessment Report. The simulated gross primary productivity (GPP) is compared with flux-tower-based estimates by Jung etal. [Journal of Geophysical Research 116 (2011) G00J07] (JU11). The net primary productivity (NPP) apparent sensitivity to climate variability and atmospheric
In this work, three different methods were used to determine the phase behavior of alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) in supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). Rough values for the total solubility of AKD in SC-CO2 were obtained. The solubility ranges from 1 to 14 mg AKD/g CO2 at temperatures from 40 to 80 degrees C and pressures from 10 to 30 MPa. A significant increase in solubility was observed in the re
We present measurements of Underlying Event observables in pp collisions at root s = 0 : 9 and 7 TeV. The analysis is performed as a function of the highest charged-particle transverse momentum p(T),L-T in the event. Different regions are defined with respect to the azimuthal direction of the leading (highest transverse momentum) track: Toward, Transverse and Away. The Toward and Away regions coll
Popular Abstract in English The word “combustion” describes a number of physical and chemical processes, whose common characteristic is an interaction between fuel and oxygen and their subsequent transformation into products, such as CO2 and water. Even though the process is often described as a single chemical reaction between fuel and oxygen, in reality, their chemical transformation requires maThe laminar burning velocity and the flame structure are common targets for combustion studies aimed at detailed kinetic model development. In the present work, fuels relevant to hydrogen combustion were considered. The laminar burning velocity of rich and lean hydrogen flames was studied experimentally and numerically, including its pressure dependence in rich mixtures and temperature dependence
The ground state properties of Mg-31 indicate a change of nuclear shape at N = 19 with a deformed J(pi) = 1/2(+) intruder state as a ground state, implying that Mg-31 is part of the "island of inversion". The collective properties of excited states were the subject of a Coulomb excitation experiment at REX-ISOLDE, CERN, employing a radioactive Mg-31 beam. De-excitation gamma-rays were detected by
Neutral Pb clusters in the size range from a few tens of atoms up to similar to 100 atoms are studied using synchrotron-based photoelectron spectroscopy. The electronic structure is seen to differ increasingly from that of the solid when the cluster size decreases. The valence band narrows gradually - down to about one fifth of the solid-state band width at the smallest size of few tens of atoms.
A small-scale prototype of the CALIFA calorimeter, which is a subsystem of the R 3 B detector, has been constructed and tested using the 179 MeV proton beam at The Svedberg Laboratory, Uppsala, Sweden. The prototype consists of 15 Csl(Tl) elements with a size of 10 x 30 x 130 mm(3), assembled in a 3 x 5 array. Each crystal was individually tested using gamma-ray sources and the light output unifor

The demand for high data rates in a wireless communication system has experienced a remarkable growth over the last years. This demand is continually increasing with the growing number of wirelessly connected devices. Thus, there is a continuing hunt for increasing the data transmission rate in wireless communication systems. To increase the data rate, the modern wireless communication system cann
Falling is one of the most common accidents for older adults over the age of 65, with more than 70 000 cases yearly in Sweden. Today there is not a technical solution which can prevent such accidents. The development of a fall prevention device could therefore be revolutionary. A substantial database is required to develop a fall prevention device that can recognise different surroundings and give
Patent law has been prevalent in climate change discussions, as a factor linking technology, Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs) and the climate crisis. The inventive step, its set threshold and the environmental benefits for the assessment of its current state, are one of the paths where patent law can act as a potential promoter of green technologies. This paper aims to asses how patent law can
This master thesis has been conducted by a student in industrial management and engineering at EON Development AB, Gothenburg, Sweden and in association with the Division of Production Management at Lund University. It investigates important issues for EON Development in order to establish a marketing department within the Gothenburg area. A marketing function must deal with customer satisfaction
During the past decades, there has been a struggle for land reform in Brazil among poor farmers and rural workers. The Catholic Church, along with some other churches, has been part of this, through the "Commissao Pastoral da Terra" and the base communities linked to the liberation theology movement. The political and theological context has changed in many ways since the emersion of lib
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att argumentera för en individuell föräldraförsäkring. Den svenska föräldraförsäkringen studeras utifrån ett rättighetsperspektiv, något som tidigare har saknats. Föräldraförsäkringen är idag en grupprättighet och stor del av min teori har därför kretsat kring grupprättigheter och individuella rättigheter. I analysen av förarbetena till föräldraförsäkringen blir det
