  2. 21. Macroalgae in the Baltic Sea : responses to low salinity and nutrient enrichment in Ceramium and Fucus

    Author : Lena Bergström; Lars Ericson; Lena Kautsky; Erik Bonsdorff; Christine A Maggs; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; adaptation; asexual reproduction; Baltic Sea; Gulf of Bothnia; salinity; macroalgae; nutrients; sexual reproduction; stress; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Abstract : The brackish Baltic Sea is a marginal environment for both marine and freshwater species. The rate of ecological differentiation is presumably high due to strong selection pressure from a gradient of decreasing salinity that has been present in its current state for only about 3 000 years.

  4. 22. The second wave : the Urak Lawoi after the tsunami in Thailand

    Author : Ann-Charlotte Granbom; Christer Lindberg; Thomas Malm; Peter Ian Crawford; Sweden Lund University; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Urak Lawoi; Chao Ley; sea nomads; sea gypsies; sea people; Thailand; disaster; vulnerability; resilience; tourism development; land policies; Indigenous people; Religion; Urak Lawoi; Turismvetenskap; Tsunami; landrättigheter; Thailand; Havsnomader; ursprungsfolk; visuell antropologi; havsfolk; sårbarhet; religion;

    Abstract : Urak Lawoi är en ursprungsbefolkning i Andamansjön som bl.a. bor på kända turistöar som Phuket, Phi Phi, Ko Lanta Yai och Ko Lipe utanför Thailands västkust. Deras språk och kultur skiljer sig från övriga thailändares, inte minst ifråga om kunskap att navigera på havet. READ MORE

  5. 23. The Second Wave : The Urak Lawoi After the Tsunami in Thailand

    Author : Lotta Ann-Charlotte Granbom; Socialantropologi; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Urak Lawoi; Tsunami; landrättigheter; Thailand; Havsnomader; ursprungsfolk; Ko Lanta; visuell antropologi; havsfolk; turism; sårbarhet; religion; Urak Lawoi; Chao Ley; sea nomads; sea gypsies; sea people; Thailand; disaster; vulnerability; resilience; tourism development; land policies; Indigenous people; Religion; Ko Lanta; visual anthropology;

    Abstract : On 26 December 2004, the Urak Lawoi sea people were hit by a huge tsunami that overwhelmed all of Southeast Asia causing the deaths of more than 350,000 people across the region. If the tsunami was the disaster, the “first wave”, the relief efforts and the assistance that came with it became the “second wave”, due to the social and economic changes that followed. READ MORE

  6. 24. Applications of the Complex Modulation Transfer Function on SEA-systems

    Author : Karl-Ola Lundberg; Teknisk akustik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vacuum technology; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; modulated noise; in-situ; modulation transfer function; loss factor; SEA; vibration and acoustic engineering; Maskinteknik; hydraulik; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : The SEA coupling and dissipation loss factors are determined in-situ from Complex Modulation Transfer Functions, CMTF:s, based on measured impulse-responses. A quotient of CMTF:s is least-square curve-fitted to a SEA model and the SEA loss factors are determined from the results of the curve-fit. READ MORE

  7. 25. Radionuclides in the Baltic Sea : Ecosystem models and experiments on transport and fate

    Author : Linda Kumblad; Nils Kautsky; Ulrik Kautsky; Michael Gilek; Michael Thorne; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; radionuclide; baltic sea; ecosystem model; ecosystem dynamics; risk assessment; safety assessment; benthic invertebrates; bioturbation; bioaccumulation; remobilisation; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Abstract : Manmade radionuclides have been introduced to the environment for almost a century. The main source has been the nuclear weapons testing programmes, but accidental releases from the nuclear power production industries have also contributed. The risk to humans from potential releases from nuclear facilities is evaluated in safety assessments. READ MORE
