Scale-worm Systematics (Annelida, Polychaeta)
(2013-02-07)Paper I. Scale-worms are segmented worms. They can be found in all marine benthic habitats, including about 1200 species and over 200 genera. There has been little known about the phylogeny of this group and this study is ... -
Formation, ageing and thermal properties of secondary organic aerosol
(2013-02-07)In order to properly represent and predict the effects of aerosol in climate systems, an accurate description of their formation and properties is needed. This thesis describes work done to increase the knowledge of processes ... -
Ecological aspects of marine Vibrio bacteria - Exploring relationships to other organisms and a changing environment
(2013-02-04)Heterotrophic bacteria of the genus Vibrio are indigenous in the marine environment although environmental cues regulate their growth and distribution. The attention brought to this genus is due to its many species/strains ... -
Observed and simulated changes in extreme precipitation and cold surges in China: 1961–2005
(2013-02-01)In the present work, precipitation and temperature related climate extremes are examined, with a focus on Mainland China. The objectives of this study are a) to identify targeted climate extremes and their changes during ... -
Mjölk- och kaseinfärger
(Hantverkslaboratoriet, Göteborgs universitet, 2013-01-28)Mjölk- och kaseinfärger har varit mycket vanliga under 1900-talets uppbyggnad av folkhemmet. I studien återerövras kunskaper om kaseinfärger ur både ett teoretiskt och hantverksmässigt perspektiv. -
A Light-Weight Defect Classification Scheme for Embedded Automotive Software Development
(2013-01-25)Objective: Systematic software defect documentation is an essential part of software development process models as a means of early identification of patterns in defect inflow. Such documentation, however, may often be a ... -
Regulation and transport mechanisms of eukaryotic aquaporins
(2013-01-11)Aquaporins are found in all kingdoms of life where they are involved in water homeostasis. They are small transmembrane water conducting channels that belong to the ancient protein family Major Intrinsic Proteins (MIP). ... -
Erfarenheter av bränning och släckning av Kinnekullekalksten

Algorithms and Interaction Potentials: phase density, surface tension and carbon dioxide
(2012-12-14)This thesis is an amalgamation of articles (Papers I–V) by the author. We present a perturbation algorithm to calculate the phase density, and thus the partition function including its temperature dependence. It works ... -
Studies in Pest Control for Cultural Property
(2012-12-05)This volume considers discrete problems of protecting cultural property from pests and examines some of the solutions. Recent decades have seen a large change in how fumigants and pesticides are used in collections of ... -
Phosphorus recycling in brackish and marine environments - Sediment investigations in situ in the Baltic Sea and the By Fjord
(2012-11-29)The phosphorus load to the oceans from land started to increase since around 1950 when man started to mine phosphorus-mineral from phosphorus-rich soils and bedrock. The increased use of phosphorus fertilizers in agriculture ... -
The Dirac Equation: Numerical and Asymptotic Analysis
(2012-11-28)The thesis consists of three parts, although each part belongs to a specific subject area in mathematics, they are considered as subfields of the perturbation theory. The main objective of the presented work is the study ... -
Non-linear Optical Microscopy and Spectroscopy for Biomedical Studies
(2012-11-21)This thesis is based on the application of non-linear optical microscopy and spectroscopy techniques within biomedical research. Non-linear optical microscopy gives the possibility of exciting fluorophores using near ... -
The Synthesis and Use of Certain Pyridine Derivatives as Modulators of the G-protein Coupled Receptors mGlu5 and P2Y12
(2012-11-20)The glutamatergic mGlu5 receptor and the purinergic P2Y12 receptor are two important targets in the development of novel treatments of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and thrombosis, respectively. Synthesis was ... -
Synthesis, Pharmacological Characterization and QSAR Modelling of 4-Phenylpiperidines and 4-Phenylpiperazines Effects on the dopaminergic neurotransmission in vivo
(2012-11-19)The endogenous neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) is involved in several functions that are controlled from the central nervous system (CNS), for example behaviour, memory, cognition and reward. A disturbed dopaminergic ... -
Static and Dynamic Measurements of Neurotransmitters in Drosophila Brain
(2012-11-15)Neurotransmitters, the substances neurons use for communication, and their precursors and metabolites are of obvious importance for the wellbeing of the individual and when the neurotransmitter balance is off it can lead ... -
August Holmbergs byggnadslära
(Nordiska museets förlag, 2006)Kunskapen om den folkliga träbyggnadskonsten som traderades från en generation till nästa återfinner vi inte i byggnadsläror och handböcker. Den har följt timmermannen och hantverkaren. Men i Nordiska museets arkiv ... -
Seaweed Invasions and Novel Chemical Defences
(2012-11-08)Biological invasions pose a risk to the biodiversity and the functioning of ecosystems in invaded areas. The reasons why some introduced species become dominant and widespread in their new environments is still largely an ... -
Gene expression and regeneration in ophiuroids: A study of transcriptional activity and regeneration in the temperate Amphiura filiformis and Antarctic Ophionotus victoriae
(2012-11-01)Regeneration, in which lost or damaged tissues are re-grown, is a common phenomenon amongst animals and especially so within the ophiuroids (brittle stars) of the phylum echinodermata. The process of regeneration begins ... -
Paternal care and brood reduction in a pipefish
(2012-11-01)From an evolutionary and adaptive perspective, the occurrence and extent of parental care in animals (investment in offspring beyond the genetic contribution) is expected to depend on an optimal (fitness-maximizing) balance ...
