1. Cold finger
Abstract : Post Traumatic Cold Intolerance is the most common, and often the most prominent disabilityfrom hand trauma. The discomfort caused by cold is believed to be linked to a dysfunction o f thedigital vasoregulation, but its pathophysiology is poorly understood. Cold induced vasospasm, i.e. READ MORE

2. Cold exposure and health : A study on neurological and vascular hand symptoms in northern Sweden
Abstract : Background: Living in a cold climate is associated with several adverse health effects. The main purpose of this thesis was to describe cold exposure characteristics in northern Sweden, and investigate the associations between such exposure and the reporting of neurological and vascular hand symptoms.

3. In the quest for a cold tolerant variety : gene expression profile analysis of cold stressed oat and rice
Abstract : Cold acclimation is a process which increases the freezing tolerance of an organism, after exposure to low, non-freezing temperatures. The acclimation ensures that cold tolerant species can endure harsh winter conditions, by preparing them to sub-zero temperatures. READ MORE

4. Impact of cold climate on boreal ecosystem processes : exploring data and model uncertainties
Abstract : The impact of cold climate on physical and biological processes, especially the role of air and soil temperature in recovering photosynthesis and transpiration in boreal forests, was investigated in a series of studies. A process-based ecosystem model (CoupModel) considering atmospheric, soil and plant components was evaluated and developed using Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) and detailed measurements from three different sites.

5. Precipitation phase determination in cold region conceptual models - analysis and method development
Abstract : Precipitation phase uncertainty is a known source of error in conceptual models used for many hydrological, climatological, and environmental applications. These conceptual models often use the simple approach of calibrating an air temperature threshold (TRS) over a large area irrespective of physiographic characteristics such as distance to the ocean and topographic relief.
