  1. 21. Survival patterns and density-dependent processes in breeding mallards Anas platyrhynchos

    Author : Gunnar Gunnarsson; Kjell Sjöberg; Johan Elmberg; Per Lundberg; Kristianstad University; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Measuring and assessing vital rates such as births and deaths are prerequisites for understanding population dynamics. Vital rates may be affected by the density of individuals, even though the importance of density dependence on population dynamics has been debated for a long time. READ MORE

  2. 22. Evaluation and clinical application of ethyl glucuronide and ethyl sulfate as biomarkers for recent alcohol consumption

    Author : Helen Dahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In recent years, there has been a growing interest in various biochemical markers for detecting acute and chronic alcohol consumption. Biochemical markers for acute and chronic drinking play important roles in detecting alcohol use, abuse and dependence in hospital settings, work place settings, traffic medicine and in forensic toxicology examinations.

  3. 23. Health outcomes of women with breast cancer

    Author : Edoardo Colzani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The overall survival of breast cancer patients has increased quite remarkably in the past decades in the developed countries due to substantial improvements in diagnosis and treatment. As a consequence, the proportion of women alive after a breast cancer diagnosis is currently increasing. READ MORE

  4. 24. Mechanical Recycling of Engineering Thermoplastics using Alloying Techniques

    Author : Xiaodong Liu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sandwich injection moulding; recycling; compatibilizer; in-situ compatibilization; engineering thermoplastics; J-integral; toughness; impact modifier;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to indicate routes by which recycled engineering thermoplastics (ETP) can be upgraded using alloying techniques. Recycled ETP have often been subjected to long-term service-induced degradation, so that the residual properties of recycled ETP need to be improved. READ MORE

  5. 25. Northern peatland carbon biogeochemistry : the influence of vascular plants and edaphic factors on carbon dioxide and methane exchange

    Author : Mats Öquist; Bo Svensson; Joseph B. Yavitt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Biogeokemi; Biologi; Autekologi; Klimatologi; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Abstract : The interest in carbon dynamics and the interactions between ecosystems and the atmosphere has increased during the last decade due to the postulated threat of anthropgenically induced global and climate change. Northern peatlands, with their large stores of organic carbon and long-term net accumulation of atmospheric carbon dioxide are key ecosystems in these interactions. READ MORE
