  1. 1. World oil supply in the 21st century : A bottom-up perspective

    Author : Henrik Wachtmeister; Mikael Höök; Jamie Speirs; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; oil supply; oil production; oil prices; bottom-up; projections; conventional oil; tight oil; shale oil; Natural Resources and Sustainable Development; Naturresurser och hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Oil-fuelled progress was a defining feature of the 20th century, and still today, oil remains the world’s largest primary energy source. Yet, oil is a non-renewable and carbon-intensive resource, either depletion or resulting carbon emissions will ultimately limit its use. READ MORE

  2. 2. World oil supply and unconventional resources : Bottom-up perspectives on tight oil production

    Author : Henrik Wachtmeister; Mikael Höök; Roger Bentley; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; oil supply; oil production; unconventional resources; tight oil; shale oil; bottom-up model; projections; Natural Resources and Sustainable Development; Naturresurser och hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Oil is the world’s largest primary energy source. It dominates the transportation sector which underpins the world economy. Yet, oil is a nonrenewable resource, destined not to last forever. In the mid-2000s global conventional oil production stagnated, leading to rising oil prices and fears of permanent oil scarcity.

  3. 3. Bottom-up and top-down regulation of heterogeneous lake food webs

    Author : Fernando Chaguaceda; Peter Eklöv; Kristin Scharnweber; Lars Tranvik; Blake Matthews; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; food webs; resource coupling; ontogenetic diet shifts; resource specialization; bottom-up; top-down; browning; eutrophication; lake; mesocosms; fatty acids; apparent competition; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Food webs are networks of organisms linked by trophic interactions that regulate the responses of ecosystems to environmental change. Such regulation is a result of the effects of resources on the abundance of their consumers (i.e. bottom-up effects) and/or the influence of consumers on the abundance of their resources (i.

  4. 4. Effect of Substrate on Bottom-Up Fabrication and Electronic Properties of Graphene Nanoribbons

    Author : Konstantin Simonov; Olof Karis; Nils Mårtensson; Alexei Preobrajenski; Alessandro Baraldi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; graphene nanoribbons; bottom-up; substrate; metal contact; electronic structure; electron doping; PES; ARPES; NEXAFS; STM; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Abstract : Taking into account the technological demand for the controlled preparation of atomically precise graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with well-defined properties, the present thesis is focused on the investigation of the role of the underlying metal substrate in the process of building GNRs using bottom-up strategy and on the changes in the electronic structure of GNRs induced by the GNR-metal interaction. The combination of surface sensitive synchrotron-radiation-based spectroscopic techniques and scanning tunneling microscopy with in situ sample preparation allowed to trace evolution of the structural and electronic properties of the investigated systems.

  5. 5. Bottom-up Fabrication of Functional DNA Nanostructures

    Author : Erik Lundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; click chemistry; gel electrophoresis; self-assembly; cross-linking; lipid membrane; fixation; linear dichroism; nanotechnology; spectroscopy; fret; dna; triplex recognition;

    Abstract : This thesis demonstrates bottom-up fabrication of a fully addressable non-repetitive network on the nanometer scale, assembled by synthetic DNA molecules. Each side constitutes a unique sequence of 10 bases, i.e. 3. READ MORE
