  2. 21. The colour of climate : A study of raised bogs in south-central Sweden

    Author : Anders Borgmark; Stefan Wastegård; Ann-Marie Robertsson; Bas van Geel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Holocene; south-central Sweden; peat humification; bog hydrology; climate variation; spectral analysis; Quaternary geology; Kvartärgeologi;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on responses in raised bogs to changes in the effective humidity during the Holocene. Raised bogs are terrestrial deposits that can provide contiguous records of past climate changes. Information on and knowledge about past changes in climate is crucial for our understanding of natural climate variability. READ MORE

  4. 22. Situation Awareness in Colour Printing and Beyond

    Author : Jens Lundström; Antanas Verikas; Juan A. Botía Blaya; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine learning; Data mining; Colour printing; Smart homes;

    Abstract : Machine learning methods are increasingly being used to solve real-world problems in the society. Often, the complexity of the methods are well hidden for users. However, integrating machine learning methods in real-world applications is not a straightforward process and requires knowledge both about the methods and domain knowledge of the problem. READ MORE

  5. 23. Diversity and Limits of Colour Vision in Terrestrial Vertebrates

    Author : Lina Roth; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Reptiles; Dim light vision; Colour vision; Camera-type eyes; Vertebrates; Mammals; Geckos; Horses;

    Abstract : Most terrestrial vertebrates have colour vision, some perceive a less colourful world and others actually discriminate a wider colour spectrum than humans do. Still, we can all make use of the valuable colour information, which is more rigid than just brightness. READ MORE

  6. 24. Plumage Colours and the Eye of the Beholder : The Ecology of Colour and its Perception in Birds

    Author : Olle Håstad; Mats Björklund; Innes Cuthill; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; ultraviolet; colour vision; opsin; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Abstract : Virtually all diurnal birds have tetrachomatic vision based on four different colour receptors. As a result, birds are potentially able to perceive their environment in twice as many colours as humans and four times as many colours compared to most other mammals, which are dichromatic.

  7. 25. Appearance of textured and pigmented polymeric surfaces

    Author : Sofie Ignell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surface texture; polymer; gloss; colour; perception; appearance;

    Abstract : The appearance is of increasing importance in the production of premium products since it is strongly connected to the quality impression. The surface appearance of any object may be described in terms of colour and surface characteristics such as gloss and texture. READ MORE
