  1. 1. Geoid Model of Tanzania from Sparse and Varying Gravity Data Density by the KTH method

    Author : Prosper Ulotu; Lars Sjöberg; Hossein Nahavandchi; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Geoid; sparse gravity data; gravity database; GGM validation by gravity; corrector surface; hybrid geoid; KTH-LSMS with AC; Mt. Kilimanjaro; Tanzania.; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : Developed countries are striving to achieve a cm geoid model. Most developing countries/regions think that the situation in their areas does not allow even a few decimetre geoid model. GNSS, which provides us with position, is one of the greatest achievements of the present time. READ MORE

  2. 2. Kind of turquoise : Effects of seafood eco-certification and sustainable consumption

    Author : Malin Jonell; Patrik Rönnbäck; Max Troell; Michael Tlusty; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; eco-certification; eco-labeling; seafood; aquaculture; shrimp; LCA; consumer behavior; marin ekotoxikologi; Marine Ecotoxicology;

    Abstract : Aquaculture and fisheries hold promise for supplying a growing world population with healthy food produced without undermining the earth’s carrying capacity. However, just as livestock production and agriculture, seafood production can have negative environmental impacts and if a continuous or even increased supply is to be guaranteed, the pressure on affected ecosystems needs to be limited.

  3. 3. Game of crops : genetic composition and adaptation of seed orchard crops

    Author : Alisa Heuchel; Xiao-Ru Wang; David Hall; Ulfstand Wennström; Jaroslaw Burczyk; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; seed orchards; GBS; linear deployment; tree improvement; genetic diversity; adapation; topgrafting; Scots pine; Norway spruce; improved reforestation material; field performance; flowering stimulation; fertility variation; Genetics; genetik; environmental science; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Orchard populations are artificial and intensively managed populations of elite, best-performing trees that are established for mass production of genetically improved seeds. Seed orchards connect cycles of selection, breeding, and testing of plus-trees with the deployment of the improved seeds at the operational plantations. READ MORE

  4. 4. Brownian Dynamics Simulations of Macromolecules : Algorithm Development and Polymers under Confinement

    Author : Tobias Carlsson; Christer Elvingson; Wim Briels; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In this thesis I have used computer simulations to study the structure and dynamics of grafted polymers during confinement. These systems are of importance for understanding e.g. colloidal stability and surface coatings. READ MORE

  5. 5. Aspects of Macroeconomic Saving

    Author : Johan Adler; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Saving; Consumption; Present value model; Capital mobility; Current account; Permanent income hypothesis; Excess sensitivity hypothesis; Tax smoothing hypothesis; Budget policy; Budget deficits; Cointegration; Vector autoregression; Monte Carlo study; Bootstrap;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with various aspects of macroeconomic saving. It consists of an introduction and four self-contained papers. Paper I, "From closed to open door policy: An empirical study of China's international capital mobility, 1958-98," is an empirical application of the open economy permanent income hypothesis (PIH).
