Oregelbundna tapetmönster: Alternativa metoder för mönsterpassning
(Hantverkslaboratoriet, Göteborgs universitet Mariestad, 2022)Syftet med studien, som genomförts som ett gästhantverkarprojekt vid Hantverkslaboratoriet, är att fördjupa kunskapen om alternativa metoder för att rapportera tapetmönster. Arbetet är också tänkt att bidra till en diskussion ... -
Time-resolved X-ray diffraction and solution scattering studies of Sensory Rhodopsin II in isolation and in complex with its transducer
Light is an important source of energy for many living organisms. Many life forms have therefore evolved cellular receptors that are able to sense light and thereby optimise conditions for photosynthesis and pho- totrophy. ... -
Äntligen i hamn - Minnen från fartygsprojektet R/V Skagerak 2012 – 2021
(University of Gothenburg / Göteborgs universitet, 2022)Skrift som sammanställts efter att Göteborgs universitets fartygsprojekt avslutats. I skriften berättar nyckelpersoner om arbetet i projektet. Tanken med skriften är att dels ge en överblick över fartyget med faktauppgifter ... -
The versatility of optical levitation
(University of Gothenburg / Göteborgs universitet, 2022)The breadth of applications of optical tweezers in life sciences is so large, that it merited Arthur Ashkin a Nobel prize in 2018. Although optical levitation in air was invented first, it has not managed to be so widely ... -
The aquatic ecotoxicity of manufactured silica nanomaterials and their interactions with organic pollutants
Manufactured silica nanomaterials are one of the nanomaterials consumed in the highest volumes (more than 4 000 000 tons/year/globally) and are used in a wide range of products and industries such as food, cosmetics, ... -
Microbial degradation of wooden foundation piles in urban context – causes and concerns
Modern infrastructural projects can endanger historical piled foundations supporting cultural heritage buildings, as groundwork can affect the subsurface environment by lowering the local groundwater level and increasing ... -
Turbulence in the sea ice impacted Southern Ocean and its implications for primary production and carbon export
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, ... -
Structural Dynamics of Rhodopsins using Time-Resolved X-ray Solution Scattering
Light is one of the most important sources of energy and environmental signals, and many organisms adapt in response to the presence of light. This is made possible through specialised proteins called photoreceptors. ... -
Outdoor heat in urban areas - Model development and applications
Heat waves and high outdoor air temperature can lead to heat stress with negative implications for human health and wellbeing such as heat stroke, heat cramps, dehydration and in extreme cases death. The urban population ... -
Experimental Protein Dynamics and its Role in Predicting Protein Function
By studying proteins we learn about the processes that control life, such as important procedures in the body, diseases and eventually find more targeted cures for many diseases. Proteins are constantly being built up ... -
Cell Membrane Homeostasis in Mammals - The roles of ADIPOR2 and TLCD1 & 2
Ten nanometers. That is the approximate thickness of the plasma membrane that separates the extracellular space from the entire cellular machinery. An asymmetrical bilayer consisting of predominantly phospholipids in which ... -
Towards 3D Covalent Organic Framework Films
Porous materials are of great scientific interest because they are able to interact with guests, such as ions, atoms and molecules throughout their entire volume. One big subgroup of organic porous materials are covalent ... -
Smart microswimmers in complex flows
(2022)Zooplankton are playing a pivotal role in balancing the life on Earth. By grazing on phytoplankton and then serving as food source to larger aquatic animals, they pave the way of redistributing the Sun’s energy and ... -
Dekorativt 1700-talssmide: Att tolka formspråk genom hantverksanalys
(Hantverkslaboratoriet, Göteborgs universitet, 2022)Arbetet har genomförts som ett gästhantverkarprojekt vid Hantverkslaboratoriet, Göteborgs universitet. Det vidgar genom olika undersökande processer förståelsen av det svenska dekorativa smidet. Tre delundersökningar ingår: ... -
A landscape of values - a study of non-epistemic values in Swedish upper secondary science education
This thesis sets out to investigate the role of non-epistemic values in science education from three actors’ perspectives – the science student, the science teacher, and the science teacher educator. More specifically, the ... -
Ocean mixing and polynyas at Maud Rise, Weddell Sea
The Weddell Sea Polynya is an intermittent, ice free area in the marginal ice zone with an extent of up to 350 000 km². It was first observed by satellites in the winter seasons of 1974-1976. In 2016 and 2017, an open-ocean ... -
Crossing barriers: Genetic consequences of translocating wild cleaner fish for aquaculture
Several species of fish show a symbiotic cleaning behaviour, where they assist other species by feeding and removing dead skin or ectoparasites. Some of these cleaner fish species are used as a low-cost parasite control ... -
Mathematical Modelling of Cellular Ageing: a Multi-Scale Perspective
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 ... -
Impact of climate variability on dynamic groundwater storage in mid- to high latitude countries
Climate change will alter the hydrological cycle, potentially changing dynamic groundwater storage and increasing groundwater drought risk. Climate influences groundwater storage directly via changes in groundwater ...
