  2. 1. Spatial-Temporal Patterns of Urban Growth in Shanghai, China: Monitoring, Analysis, and Simulation

    Author : Qian Zhang; Yifang Ban; Jiyuan Liu; Bin Jiang; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; urban growth; spatial-temporal pattern; remote sensing; spatial metrics; scenarios-based simulation; Shanghai; Geoengineering; Geoteknik;

    Abstract : Supporting huge population, megacities are definitely the hot spots of production, consumption, and waste generation. Without careful investment and planning, megacities will be overwhelmed by burgeoning negative impacts on the environment, natural resources, and human health, as well as a host of social and economic issues.

  4. 2. Univariate and Multivariate Surveillance of Outbreaks

    Author : Linus Schiöler; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; change-points; expected delay; exponential family; false alarms; generalised likelihood; inference principles; influenza; MEWMA; monitoring; multivariate; ordered regression; performance metrics; outbreak; predictive value; subjective judgment; spatial; statistical models; surveillance; tularemia;

    Abstract : In many areas there is a need to monitor observations in order to detect changes in the underlying processes as quickly as possible. The theory of statistical surveillance provides the possibility of making optimal decisions about whether a change has occurred or not based on the data available at the time of the decision.

  5. 3. Climate Change: Models, Metrics and Meaning Making

    Author : Erik Sterner; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Climate Science Literacy; Emission Metrics; Knowledge-Behavior Gap; Short-lived Climate Forcers; SF Failure; Integral Theory; Carbon Cycle; Sea Level Rise; Common Pool Resources; Resource Extraction;

    Abstract : This thesis, combining research in climate science and educational science, investigates different aspects of climate knowledge. It consists of five papers and covers three major topics: emission metrics, public understanding of atmospheric CO2 accumulation, and spatial modelling of natural resource use. READ MORE

  6. 4. Spatial immune analyses in clinical cancer tissue

    Author : Max Backman; Patrick Micke; Fredrik Pontén; Johan Botling; Kurt Schalper; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immune landscape; non-small cell lung cancer; immune cells; multiplex immunofluorescence; spatial analysis; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Cancer is a leading cause of premature death and lung cancer is the deadliest cancer type, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) representing 85% of lung cancer cases. Despite promising development in cancer treatment in recent decades, overall prognosis is poor. READ MORE

  7. 5. The immune microenvironment in mantle cell lymphoma : Targeted liquid and spatial proteomic analyses

    Author : Lavanya Lokhande; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mantle cell lymphoma MCL ; proteomic analyses; spatial analysis; Biomarker discovery; immune microenviroment; serum proteomics;

    Abstract : The complex interplay of the tumour and immune cells affects tumour growth, progression, and response to treatment. Restorationof effective immune response forms the basis of onco-immunology, which further enabled the development of immunotherapy. READ MORE
