  1. 1. Structural transitions of proton-gated ion channels : Involving pH sensing, heterogeneity and lipid interactions

    Author : Urška Rovšnik; Erik Lindahl; Hugues Nury; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ion channels; cryo-electron microscopy; pH gating; simulations; structure-function relationship; GLIC; DeCLIC; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Studying protein structure and function involves analyzing the relationship between a protein's three-dimensional assembly and its dynamic biochemical activity. The superfamily of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs) constitutes a classic yet illuminating experimental system for structure-function studies. READ MORE

  2. 2. Remote Sensing of Urbanization and Environmental Impacts

    Author : Jan Haas; Yifang Ban; Costas Cartalis; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Remote Sensing; Urbanization; Land Use Land Cover LULC ; Environmental Impact; Landscape Metrics; Ecosystem Services; Geodesy and Geoinformatics; Geodesi och geoinformatik;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to establish analytical frameworks to map urban growth patterns with spaceborne remote sensing data and to evaluate environmental impacts through Landscape Metrics and Ecosystem Services. Urbanization patterns at regional scale were evaluated in China's largest urban agglomerations and at metropolitan scale in Shanghai, Stockholm and Beijing using medium resolution optical satellite data.

  3. 3. Urban Change Detection Using Multitemporal SAR Images

    Author : Osama Yousif; Yifang Ban; Lorenzo Bruzzone; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Change detection; High resolution; Image denoising; Kittler-Illingworth; MAP-MRF; Multitemporal SAR images; Nonlocal means; Object-based; Otsu; Outlier detection; Remote sensing; SAR speckle; Urban; Geodesy and Geoinformatics; Geodesi och geoinformatik;

    Abstract : Multitemporal SAR images have been increasingly used for the detection of different types of environmental changes. The detection of urban changes using SAR images is complicated due to the complex mixture of the urban environment and the special characteristics of SAR images, for example, the existence of speckle.

  4. 4. Remote Sensing and GIS : Applications for Groundwater Potential Assessment in Eritrea

    Author : Semere Solomon; KTH; []
    Keywords : Remote sensing; Geographic Information Systems; groundwater; geomorphology; Digital elevation model; lithology; hard rock; lineament; structures; hydrogeology; Eritrea;

    Abstract : An integrated approach with remote sensing, GeographicInformation Systems (GIS) and more traditional fieldworktechniques was adopted to assess the groundwater potential inthe central highlands of Eritrea. Digitally enhanced colorcomposites and panchromatic images of Landsat TM and Spot wereinterpreted to produce thematic maps such as lithology andlineaments. READ MORE

  5. 5. Tailoring Conducting Polymer Interface for Sensing and Biosensing

    Author : Lingyin Meng; Wing Cheung Mak; Anthony Turner; Daniel Filippini; Mikhail Vagin; Man Bock Gu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Conducting polymer; Interface; Sensing; Biosensing; Bioelectronics;

    Abstract : The routine measurement of significant physiological and biochemical parameters has become increasingly important for health monitoring especially in the cases of elderly people, infants, patients with chronic diseases, athletes and soldiers etc. Monitoring is used to assess both physical fitness level and for disease diagnosis and treatment.
