  2. 11. Late Cenozoic Geoarchives from Lake Baikal, Siberia

    Author : Tomasz Sapota; Ala Aldahan; Göran Possnert; Ihsan Al-Aasm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quaternary geology; Lake Baikal; Be-10 isotope; chronology; paleoclimate; tectonics; geomagnetic field; cosmic rays; Kvartärgeologi; Quaternary geology; Kvartärgeologi;

    Abstract : Three long sediment cores (BDP-98 – 600 m, BDP-96 – 200 m and BDP-93 – 100 m) drilled in Lake Baikal (Siberia) have been studied with the aims of establishing an absolute chronology and reconstructing paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental changes in the region. The location of the lake at relatively high latitude and continental interior and a thick continuous sedimentary archive that developed in a rift system tectonic setting provide unique material for this investigation.

  4. 12. Deglaciation pattern and dynamics in the Bolmen area, southwestern Sweden

    Author : Gunnar Andersson; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geology; backwasting; Debris flow; Oscillation; Gothenburg moraine; cover moraine; Late Weichselian; hummocky moraine; physical geography; Geologi; fysisk geografi;

    Abstract : The Late Weichselian deglaciation of an area in southwestern Sweden was reconstructed by geomorphological, sedimentological and lithostratigraphical methods. The morainic deposits were mapped and classified into three landsystems: Streamlined terrain, hummocky moraine and cover moraine. READ MORE

  5. 13. Asthma : Respiratory Symptoms, Atopy and Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Young Adults in Estonia and Sweden

    Author : Rain Jõgi; Amund Gulsvik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; Asthma; atopic sensitisation; prevalence; epidemiology; ECRHS; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Abstract : Morbidity of asthma has increased over the world. The reasons for this increase have remained unclear. Studies in children have reported considerable East-West difference in the prevalence of atopy and respiratory allergies. READ MORE

  6. 14. Paleoceanography of the Eastern Equatorial Pacific over the last eight million years

    Author : Daniele Reghellin; Jan Backman; Per Andersson; Eve Arnold; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Marine Geology; maringeologi;

    Abstract : Many studies have investigated the evolution of the Eastern Equatorial Pacific (EEP) Ocean paleoceanography since the late Neogene because of its role in regulating the Earth’s climate and because global climate has undergone major changes during this time period. However, current understanding of the EEP paleoceanography encounters two basic problems. READ MORE

  7. 15. Population genetic, association and zygosity testing on preamplified DNA

    Author : Ulf Hannelius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : New advances in genetic epidemiological research have lead to the establishment of collaborative biobanks that can be used in large-scale population genetic and association studies. A less explored approach is to use the existing biological repositories, like the Swedish newborn screening registry (SNSR) for similar purposes. READ MORE
