Trädgårdsmästarens förökningsmetoder: dokumentation av hantverkskunskap
(2017-05-29)Plant propagation is craft expertise that has been developed within a gardening tradition in which knowledge has primarily been transferred from one practitioner to another by showing and explaining. When the transfer of ... -
Tree rings and climate in Scandinavia and Southern Patagonia
(2017-11-30)The present knowledge of temperature variability during the past millennium has been greatly improved due to an increasing availability of reconstructions made based on paleoclimate proxies, such as tree-rings. These ... -
Tree stomatal regulation and water use in a changing climate - From tropical to boreal ecosystems
(2015-11-12)Rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) and temperature have the potential to alter stomatal behavior and tree water use, which has implications for forest hydrology and climate. Many models ... -
Tree-rings and climate - Standardization, proxy-development, and Fennoscandian summer temperature history
(2014-05-15)Instrumental meteorological observation are too short for trying to estimate climate change and variability on multi-decadal and centennial time-scales, and when trying to evaluate the response of the climate system to ... -
Trophic interactions in the tundra: Impacts of large mammal herbivory on carbon processes and fungal communities
(2023-12-11)Plant productivity is generally increasing in the Arctic as a consequence of accelerated climate change. The change in plant communities may coincide with a loss of carbon from Arctic soils due to increased decomposition ... -
Tropical cyclone induced extreme wind, rainfall, and floods in the Mekong River Basin
(2020-04-27)Increasing magnitude and frequency of climate extremes under global warming are threatening the socioeconomic development in many parts of the world. The Mekong River Basin (MRB) is a good example for how climate extremes ... -
The Tropospheric Aerosol - Measurements and Modelling. Case studies in Tanzania and Southeast Asia and development of models for size resolved aerosol simulations on the regional scale.
(2009-10-01)The tropospheric aerosol is a complex constituent of the atmosphere that has impacts on health and the climate. This thesis presents five different studies from Tanzania, Southeast Asia and Europe dealing with urban ... -
Turbulence in the sea ice impacted Southern Ocean and its implications for primary production and carbon export
(2022-05-12)The sea ice impacted Southern Ocean, south of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, is one of the most important regions on earth for the cycling of carbon and distribution of heat and freshwater around the globe. Here, ... -
Two-Electron Excitations in Negative Ions
(2011-10-07)The main goal of this work has been to increase the knowledge of electron-electron correlation through experimental studies of negative ions. Negative ions are atoms or molecules to which an extra electron has been attached. ... -
Ultrafast Structural Changes in a Bacterial Photosynthetic Reaction Center probed with XFEL Radiation
(2017-05-12)Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and many species of bacteria convert energy from sunlight into chemical energy used to power their metabolism. As these plants and bacteria are eaten, the chemical energy moves ... -
Unravelling Mechanistic Insights of Eukaryotic Transcriptional Control
(2022-10-13)DNA transcription involves the association of multiple proteins with DNA to convert the genetic information into messenger-RNA transcripts, which later will be translated into proteins. Con-trolled regulation of transcription ... -
Unravelling the complexity of cold acclimation in plants
(2011-05-19)Many plants respond to low non-freezing temperatures by increasing their freezing tolerance in a process known as cold acclimation. Microarray studies have shown that hundreds of genes are differentially expressed during ... -
Urban Climate and Air Pollution in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
(2011-05-05)ABSTRACT Africa has recently been singled out by UN Habitat as the fastest urbanizing continent in the world. The most extreme case was found in the Sahelian city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, where the population is ... -
Urban Climate and Air pollution in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso : An overview of results from five field studies
(University of Gothenburg / Göteborgs universitet, 2012)The report Urban Climate and Air pollution in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso contains an overview of results from five field studies as well as suggestions for air pollution mitigation strategies suitable for Ouagadougou. -
Using Light to Regulate the Activity of RET Kinase: Design, synthesis and evaluation of photoswitchable DFG-out RET kinase inhibitors
(2021-08-26)Protein kinases are essential for signal transduction and regulate most cellular processes, such as metabolism, membrane transport, motility, and cell cycle. Although they play a critical role in cells and have a strong ... -
Using Lyapunov Exponents to Explain the Dynamics of Complex Systems
(Department of Physics. University of Gothenburg, 2024)Complex systems often display chaotic dynamics, characterised by being exponentially sensitive to changes in initial conditions. Such systems are in general difficult to analyse, due to the large number of nonlinearly ... -
Utbildning för hållbar utveckling från en lärarhorisont: sammanhang, kompetenser och samarbete
(2014-09-12)Education for sustainable development, ESD, seeks to elucidate complex problems and interdisciplinary, holistic and transformative teaching and learning are described as possible approaches. All teachers, regardless of ... -
Vattenglas- och silikatfärg. Historik, karakteristik och användning
(Hantverkslaboratoriet, Göteborgs universitet, 2015-03)I denna gästhantverkarstudie undersöker Arja Källbom materialet vattenglas som bland annat används för att göra färg. Vattenglas är ett flytande silikat som framställs genom att smälta kvarts med pottaska eller soda. Studien ...
