Reproductive isolation at contact zones
(2021-01-18)Speciation is among the most important evolutionary processes that contribute to biodiversity. It involves the formation of new species that have become reproductively isolated through a process that is not linear and ... -
Active Matter in a Critical State: From passive building blocks to active molecules, engines and droplets
(2020-12-19)The motion of microscopic objects is strongly affected by their surrounding environment. In quiescent liquids, motion is reduced to random fluctuations known as Brownian motion. Nevertheless, microorganisms have been able ... -
Konsten att förvalta. Bevarandets utmaningar och möjligheter – värderingar och beslutsprocesser i 1900-talets Sverige rörande offentlig byggnadsanknuten konst
(2020-12-16)Denna avhandling har tillkommit i syfte att förbättra förutsättningarna för bevarande av byggnadsanknuten konst i offentlig miljö. Bakgrunden är de stora utmaningar samhället står inför när det gäller att bevara det ... -
Advancing Evolutionary Biology: Genomics, Bayesian Statistics, and Machine Learning
(2020-11-20)During the recent decades the field of evolutionary biology has entered the era of big data, which has transformed the field into an increasingly computational discipline. In this thesis I present novel computational method ... -
Changes in near-surface winds across Sweden over the past decades - Observations and simulations
(2020-11-19)Driven by a combination of anthropogenic activities and climate changes, near- surface terrestrial winds displayed a large decrease in their magnitude in the past decades, named “stilling”, and a recent recovery in their ... -

Lipidic Cubic Phase Microcrystallization and its Application in Serial Crystallography
(2020-10-23)Every living organism contain a cell membrane which is an important cell structure with a vast variety of different functions such as cell signaling, transportation and energy production. One of the most important functions ... -
Taxonomy and Systematics of Thelephorales – Glimpses Into its Hidden Hyperdiversity
(2020-10-22)The order Thelephorales is a widespread group of many thousands of species of ecologically important, ectomycorrhizal fungi, of which only a fraction have been described to date. Most species are corticioid (skin-like) and ... -
A Holistic View on Aquaporins: Production, Structure, Function and Interactions
(2020-10-21)Aquaporins are specialised membrane proteins, which regulate the water homeostasis of cells. In eukaryotic organisms, this process is tightly regulated, and aberrations in aquaporin functionality lead to severe pathologies ... -
Strong light-matter interaction and its consequences on molecular photophysics
(2020-09-15)Strong light-matter interaction offers the possibility to modify chemical and physical properties of molecules by modifying their photonic environment, resulting in the creation of hybrid light-matter states, known ... -
Practical application of machine learning for analyses of biological matrices and environmental phenomena.
(2020-09-11)This thesis presents research aimed at forwarding an understanding of machine learning methods as a method of studying complex matrices and environmental phenomena. A number of machine learning methods in the form of linear ... -
A Play of Light and Spins: Excitation and Detection of Non-linear Magnetization Dynamics using Light
(2020-09-02)The excitation and detection of magnetization dynamics play key roles in the field of spintronics and magnonics. In this thesis, we investigate a contactless method of exciting nonlinear magnetization dynamics using a ... -
Symmetry-protected topological phases: From Floquet theory to machine learning
(2020-08-18)It is by now a well known fact that boundary states in conventional time-independent topological insulators are protected against perturbations that preserve relevant symmetries. In the first part of this thesis, ... -
Spectroscopic studies of the negative state of atoms
(2020-08-13)Negative ions are of fundamental interest in atomic physics due to the enhanced importance of the electron correlation. In this thesis new spectroscopic methods have been developed and then applied to study the nature of ... -
Membrane Fluidity Regulation: From C. elegans to mammalian cells
(2020-08-12)Biological membranes are primarily an assembly of lipids and proteins. Collectively, these constituents within a phospholipid bilayer determine the physical membrane properties such as fluidity, viscosity, thickness, packing ... -
Det frivillige fartøyvernet i Noreg - Historisk bakgrunn, omfang og motivasjon
(2020-06-03)Voluntary Ship Preservation in Norway: — Historical Background, Scope and Motivation Introduction: Today historic ships are recognised and publicly valued as an important part of Nor-way’s cultural heritage, with ... -
Preharvest Conditions Affecting Apple Quality, Antioxidant Responses and Susceptibility to the Infection by Grey mould (Botrytis cinerea)
(2020-05-20)Apple fruits are rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants, which are beneficial for human health. During postharvest storage, there are losses as a result of diseases such as grey mould, caused by the fungus Botrytis ... -
Fluctuating superconductivity and pair-density wave order in the cuprate superconductors
(2020-05-19)High-temperature superconductors are some of nature’s most enigmatic materials. Besides carrying a supercurrent, these materials manifest a range of electronic and structural orders. A state of modulated superconductivity, ... -
Towards prediction in ungauged aquifers – methods for comparative regional analysis
(2020-05-12)Hydrogeological investigations and in particular groundwater resource assessments are strongly reliant on understanding the factors controlling groundwater level dynamics. However, historical records of measured groundwater ...
