  1. 16. Re-establishment of connectivity for fish populations in regulated rivers

    Author : Olle Calles; Larry Greenberg; Lars Nyberg; David Scruton; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Attraction efficiency; Connectivity; Flow regime; Hyporheic water quality; Nature-like fishway; Passage efficiency; Regulated river; Remedial measures; Salmo trutta; Biology; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The hydropower industry has altered connectivity in many rivers during the last century. Many fish species depend on both an intact longitudinal connectivity to be able to migrate between spawning, feeding and winter habitats, and vertical connectivity for development and survival of incubating embryos and larvae in the gravel.

  4. 19. Train your brain : updating, transfer, and neural changes

    Author : Erika Dahlin; Lars Nyberg; Anna Stigsdotter Neely; Torkel Klingberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; cognitive training; executive functioning; transfer; fMRI; brain system; young adults; elderly; practice; neural correlates; individual differences; Experimental brain research; Experimentell hjärnforskning; Cognitive science; Kognitionsforskning; fysiologi; Physiology;

    Abstract : An initial aim of this thesis was to determine whether training of a specific executive function (updating) produces improvements in performance on trained and transfer tasks, and whether the effects are maintained over time. Neural systems underlying training and transfer effects were also investigated and one question considered is whether transfer depends on general or specific neural overlap between training and transfer tasks.
