  1. 1. Nitrogen Removal in Created Wetlands : Considerations – Challenges – Possibilities

    Author : Josefin E. Nilsson; Antonia Liess; Stefan Weisner; Eva Lindström; Jennifer Tank; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecosystem services; eutrophication; constructed wetlands; agricultural runoff; denitrification; wetland multifunctionality; climate change; nutrient retention; vegetation; hydrology; greenhouse gas emissions; biodiversity; Biology with specialization in Limnology; Biologi med inriktning mot limnologi;

    Abstract : Created wetlands in agricultural landscapes deliver a multitude of ecosystem services, one of which is the removal of nitrogen (N) from water to reduce eutrophication. Wetland N removal, primarily through denitrification, is influenced by various factors. READ MORE

  2. 2. Effects of created habitats on farmland biodiversity

    Author : Annelie Jönsson; Biodiversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; agricultural intensification; brown hare; common pheasant; farming intensity; granivorous passerines; grey partridge; habitat creation; landscape heterogeneity; pollinators;

    Abstract : Agricultural intensification has caused severe declines among biodiversity in European farmland over the last half century. The transformation of the agricultural landscape has led to reduced availability of key resources such as food, nesting habitat and shelter. READ MORE

  4. 4. Orphan Genes Bioinformatics : Identification and properties of de novo created genes

    Author : Walter Basile; Arne Elofsson; Diethard Tautz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioinformatics; de novo; orphans; evolutionary genetics; Biochemistry towards Bioinformatics; biokemi med inriktning mot bioinformatik;

    Abstract : Even today, many genes are without any known homolog. These "orphans" are found in all species, from Viruses to Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. For a portion of these genes, we might simply not have enough data to find homologs yet. READ MORE

  5. 5. Mind Your Own Business : Understanding and characterizing value created by consumers in a digital economy

    Author : Martin Daniel Mileros; Nicolette Lakemond; Robert Forchheimer; Charlotte Norrman; Joakim Björkdahl; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; e-commerce; digital economy; Web 2.0; consumer-centric; personal data; content creators; user-generated content; business models; value creation; value capture; digital platforms; digital zero-price markets; blockchain technology; human-centered data economy;

    Abstract : In the context of what is commonly referred to as consumer-centric digital economy, personal data has become the new currency which is utilized by consumers to be granted access to seemingly “free apps” within so-called digital zero-price markets. Simultaneously, there are consumers, known as “content creators”, who can generate million-dollar revenues annually. READ MORE
