  1. 11. Trade-off analysis of forest ecosystem services – A modelling approach

    Author : Xi Pang; Ulla Mörtberg; Berit Balfors; Brian Fath; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Forest bioenergy feedstock; Landscape simulation; Forest simulation; Ecosystem services modelling; Integrated sustainability assessment; Spatial optimization; Optimization heuristics; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

    Abstract : Forest is a resource that is increasingly utilized for multiple purposes. The balance between energy demands and the long-term capacity of ecosystems to support biodiversity and other ecosystem services is crucial. READ MORE

  2. 12. Coupled processes in seasonally frozen soils : Merging experiments and simulations

    Author : Mousong Wu; Per-Erik Jansson; Bjorn Klove; KTH; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Frozen soil; Coupled transport; Energy balance; Uncertainties; Merged study; 冻土;水热盐运移;耦合关系;水热平衡;不确定性; Mark- och vattenteknik; Land and Water Resources Engineering;

    Abstract : Soil freezing/thawing is of importance in the transport of water, heat and solute, with coupled effects. Due to complexity in soil freezing/thawing, uncertainty could be influential in both experimentation and simulation work in frozen soils. READ MORE

    Abstract : This thesis is a theoretical and empirical examination of the developmentof bioethanol markets since 2005 when sustainability regulations forbiofuels were introduced globally. The experiences of Brazil and Sweden,and the influence of European regulations on the development ofbioethanol markets receive special attention. READ MORE

  4. 14. Phenotypic and social effects on behavioural trade-offs in Eurasian perch

    Author : Gustav Hellström; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Trading between conflicting demands is a fundamental part in how animals interact with its environment and social surrounding. Knowledge of what factors that are affecting behavioural decisions is central in our understanding of animal adaptation and ecology. READ MORE

  5. 15. Mathematical Modelling of Cellular Ageing: a Multi-Scale Perspective

    Author : Barbara Schnitzer; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; replicative ageing; healthy ageing; yeast; complex systems; multi-scale model; hybrid model; flux balance analysis; ordinary differential equations; Boolean modelling;

    Abstract : In a growing and increasingly older population, we are progressively challenged by the impact of ageing on individuals and society. The UN declared the years 2021-2030 as the Decade of Healthy Ageing, highlighting the efforts to minimise the burden of ageing and age-related diseases. READ MORE
