  2. 1. Habitat selection and breeding ecology of golden eagles in Sweden

    Author : Edward Moss; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The red-listed Golden Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) population is estimated between 1200-1400 reproductive individuals in Sweden. This population is unusual as eagles predominantly nest in trees unlike most others that prefer cliffs. READ MORE

  4. 2. Arbitral Jurisdiction in Multi-Contract Relations : A Comparative Study of Swedish, Swiss and English Law

    Author : Monica Seifert; Antonina Bakardjieva Engelbrekt; Daria Kozlowska-Rautiainen; Giuditta Cordero-Moss; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Arbitration; arbitral jurisdiction; arbitration agreement; multi-contract relations; Rättsvetenskap med inriktning mot processrätt; Legal Science; specialisation in Procedural Law;

    Abstract : Questions concerning arbitral jurisdiction in multi-contract relations often arise, not least due to the increased globalisation involving ever more intricate commercial transactions and the ensuing growth of arbitration in cross-border commercial settings. Arbitral jurisdiction is grounded entirely in the consent of the parties. READ MORE

  5. 3. Living on the edge : effectiveness of buffer strips in protecting biodiversity on boreal riparian forests

    Author : Kristoffer Hylander; Christer Nilsson; Bengt Gunnar Jonsson; Ellen Macdonald; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecology; boreal forest; bryophyte; buffer strip; ecological boundary; edge effect; headwater stream; land snail; liverwort; moss; phytometer; riparian forest; substrate; terrestrial gastropod; Ekologi; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi; ekologisk botanik; Ecological Botany;

    Abstract : The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the ecological consequences of buffer strip retention on riparian and terrestrial biodiversity. Earlier studies on forest buffer strips have evaluated their effectiveness in relation to water quality and aquatic biota. However, forests along streams are species rich habitats for many organism groups. READ MORE

  6. 4. Phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinases in the moss Physcomitrella patens

    Author : Laura Saavedra; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate, [PtdIns(4,5)P2], is a signalling lipid which is involved in many important processes in animal cells such as cytoskeleton organization, intracellular vesicular trafficking, secretion, cell motility, regulation of ion channels, and nuclear signalling pathways. In contrast to the animal field, much less is known about the roles of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and its synthesizing enzyme, phosphatidylinositol phosphate kinase (PtdInsP kinase), in plants. READ MORE

  7. 5. ARSENIC REMOVAL BY PHYTOFILTRATION AND SILICON TREATMENT : A POTENTIAL SOLUTION FOR LOWERING ARSENIC CONCENTRATIONS IN FOOD CROPS

    Author : Arifin Sandhi; Gunnar Jacks; Gunno Renman; Maria Greger; Roger Herbert; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aquatic moss; grain; rice; lettuce; macrophyte; phytoremediation; speciation; temperature; oxygenation; wetland.; Land and Water Resources Engineering; Mark- och vattenteknik;

    Abstract : Use of arsenic-rich groundwater for crop irrigation can increase the arsenic (As) content in food crops and act as a carcinogen, compromising human health. Using aquatic plant based phytofiltration is a potential eco-technique for removing arsenic from water. READ MORE
