  2. 1. Migratory behaviour of Baltic salmon (Salmo salar L.) : adaptive significance of annual cycles

    Author : Torleif Eriksson; Lars-Ove Eriksson; Kees Groot; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Migratory behaviour; annual cycles; Baltic salmon; Salmo salar; annual time program; swimming behaviour; mortality; maturity; life history;

    Abstract : This thesis evaluates the adaptive significance of annual cycles on the migratory behaviour of Baltic salmon (Salmo salar L.). The studies have included field experiments as well as laboratory studies gf maturity and migratory behaviour patterns of smolts and postsmolts mainly from the Angerman river population. READ MORE

  4. 2. Unveiling the nature of dark matter with direct detection experiments

    Author : Vanessa Zema; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NaI; phenomenology; annual-modulation; direct-detection; cryogenics; COSINUS; polarised-nuclei; CRESST; dark-matter; phonons;

    Abstract : The desire of discovery is an anthropic need which characterises and connects the human being over the eras. In particular, observing the sky is an instinctive drive exerted by the curiosity of the mysteries which it retains. READ MORE

  5. 3. Analyzing Vegetation Trends with Sensor Data from Earth Observation Satellites

    Author : Sadegh Jamali; Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Change detection; Satellite sensor data; Time series analysis; Vegetation dynamics; Vegetation index;

    Abstract : Abstract This thesis aims to advance the analysis of nonlinear trends in time series of vegetation data from Earth observation satellite sensors. This is accomplished by developing fast, efficient methods suitable for large volumes of data. READ MORE

  6. 4. Understanding Weather effects on, in, and from large Herbivore Population Dynamics

    Author : Lena Månsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; monitoring; management; data collection; Ecology; Ekologi; indirect effects; vegetation; modeling; time series analysis; precipitation; weather; population dynamics; Large herbivores;

    Abstract : Large herbivores are monitored for various reasons in many areas around the world. Data from such monitoring can be of varying degree of detail and extent. Several studies have shown that we need extensive amounts of data with a high degree of detail to be able to understand anything from it. READ MORE

  7. 5. Removal processes in sewage treatment plants : Sludge quality and treatment efficiency of structurally diverse organic compounds

    Author : Ulrika Olofsson; Peter Haglund; Staffan Lundstedt; Juliane Hollender; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Environmetrics; flame retardants; GCxGC; non-targeted screening; mass flow; metals; plasticizers; poorly removed contaminants; POP; PPCP; prediction; Principal Component Analysis; removal efficiency; sewage; sewage treatment plants; sludge; sludge adsorption; sources; time-trend analysis; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi;

    Abstract : Large and ever-increasing numbers of chemicals, including large quantities of a broad spectrum of organic compounds are used in modern society. More than 30 000 of the more than 100 000 chemical substances registered in the EU are estimated to be daily used, of which many will be discharged into the waste-streams handled by municipal sewage treatment plants (STPs).
