  1. 1. High-contrast imaging of low-mass companions and debris disks

    Author : Ruben Asensio Torres; Markus Janson; Subhanjoy Mohanty; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Direct imaging; extrasolar planets; debris disks; planet formation; high angular resolution; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Abstract : The search for exoplanets, i.e., planets orbiting other stars than the Sun, is a relatively new research field, but has already established itself as one of the most prolific and intriguing areas of astronomy. READ MORE

  2. 2. Silicon nitride for total hip replacements

    Author : Maria Pettersson; Cecilia Persson; Håkan Engqvist; Staffan Jacobson; Kenneth Holmberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SiNx; Si3N4; coatings; CoCr; Ti; alloy; tribology; wear; corrosion; dissolution; debris; hip; arthroplasty; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot materialvetenskap; Engineering Science with specialization in Materials Science;

    Abstract : For more than 50 years total hip replacements have been a common and successful procedure to increase patient mobility and quality of life. The 10-year implant survival rate is 97.8%. READ MORE

  3. 3. Forest – stream linkages : Brown trout (Salmo trutta) responses to woody debris, terrestrial invertebrates and light

    Author : Pär Gustafsson; Eva Bergman; Larry Greenberg; Kurt Fausch; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Brown trout; growth; foraging; woody debris; terrestrial invertebrates; light; riparian zone; forestry; stream; Freshwater ecology; Limnisk ekologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Forests surrounding streams affect aquatic communities in numerous ways, contributing to energy fluxes between terrestrial and lotic ecosystems. The five papers in this thesis focus on woody debris, terrestrial invertebrates and light, three factors influenced by riparian zone structure, potentially affecting streams and brown trout (Salmo trutta).

  4. 4. Bioaerosols and their importance for low-level Arctic clouds

    Author : Gabriel Pereira Freitas; Paul Zieger; Radovan Krejci; Kevin J. Noone; Claudia Mohr; Martin Gallagher; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioaerosols; Aerosols; Clouds; Arctic; Cloud Condensation Nuclei; Ice Nucleating Particles; Sea Spray Aerosol; Environmental Sciences; miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Bioaerosols are microorganisms or functional parts of them or other biological matter suspended in air. Examples are bacteria, viruses, pollen, spores, or smaller plant debris. In the atmosphere, bioaerosols can play various functional roles, such as facilitating the spread of genetic material. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Coarse woody debris; Dead wood; Dendrochronology; Fire history; Forest conservation; Forest structure; Log; Meta-analysis; Pine heath forest; Prescribed burning; Saproxylic fungi; Saproxylic beetles; Snag; Wood-inhabiting fungi; Aktiv skötselmetod; Bevarandebiologi; Brandhistorik; Dendrokronologi; Död ved; Hällmarkstallskog; Lågproduktiv skog; Meta-analys; Naturvård; Naturvårdsbrand; Skogsstruktur; Solbelyst död ved; Stock; Torraka; Vedlevande svamp; Vedlevande insekter; Åldersstruktur;

    Abstract : In today´s intensively managed landscape, very few forests with old-growth characteristics and little human impact exist. One of the rare exceptions is pine forests on rocky soils, a forest type which has probably escaped extensive human use because of its low productivity. READ MORE
