Granskning av sakristiadörren i Hammarö medeltida träkyrka
(Hantverkslaboratoriet, 2016)En pusselbit i rekonstruktionen av Södra Råda medeltidskyrka är granskning av de liknande medeltida byggnader som ännu finns kvar. Man tittar bland annat på verktygsspår. I denna film får vi vara med när timmermännen Mattias ... -
Clustering and caustics in one-dimensional models of turbulent aerosols
(Göteborgs universitet, 2018)Heavy particles suspended in turbulent fluid flows, so-called turbulent aerosols, are common in Nature and in technological applications. A prominent example is rain droplets in turbulent clouds. Due to their inertia, ... -
The Nitrogen Cycle in Soil – Climate Impact and Methodological Challenges in Natural Ecosystems
(2018-08-31)Nitrogen (N) is a fundamental element for life, and limiting in many terrestrial ecosystems. In non-N-fertilized ecosystems, the N inputs can be low, and the nutrient availability for plants is determined by the internal ... -
Biophotonics Targeting Pharmaceutical Challenges
(2018-08-23)The study of the interaction between light and biological matter, called biophotonics, contributes to our understanding of biological systems - from subcellular compartments up to the human organ system. Herein, light is ... -
Alla dessa kyrkor: Kulturvård, religion och politik

Assessing biodiversity: Beyond the taxonomic impediment
(2018-08-16)Precise and accurate quantification of biological diversity is crucial for many fields of biological research and for understanding ecosystem services, biological interactions, biogeography and designing management strategies ... -
Interaction of Natural Organic Matter molecules with TiO2 nanoparticles: An Experimental Adsorption and Aggregation study
(2018-08-16)Mechanisms by which synthetic nanoparticles are released into natural environments and the potential impact of nanoparticles on living organisms have been discussed frequently over the past decade. Interactions of nanoparticles ... -
Carbon cycling in Baltic Sea sediments – In situ investigations with benthic landers
(2018-05-25)Coastal seas, estuaries and continental shelves are the connection between land and the open ocean, and due to high productivity and strong influence from land a majority of the marine organic carbon (OC) cycling and ... -
Road climate studies with emphasis on road surface temperature variations and hoar frost risk
(2018-05-24)An effective road transportation system is a key enabler for national and global economic growth. In the wintertime, the presence of snow and ice on road surfaces reduces road surface friction and can result in serious ... -
Carbon and nitrogen fluxes associated to marine and estuarine phytoplankton
(2018-05-14)Globally, mainly nitrogen or phosphorus is limiting the primary production. New nitrogen can enter estuarine ecosystems as nitrate from upwelling events, from river runoff, atmospheric deposition, or by nitrogen fixation. ... -
Nitrous Oxide Production in Agricultural Soil – Linking Biogeochemical Pathways and Drivers
(2018-05-09)Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a long-lasting and potent greenhouse gas responsible for depletion of stratospheric ozone. As the atmospheric N2O concentration reaches all-time highs, emission variability in space and time still ... -
Impacts of recreational boating in coastal seascapes and implications for management
(2018-04-12)Kosterhavet National Park, a marine protected area on the Swedish west coast, is a popular destination for tourists and attracts over half a million visitors annually. Many of the tourists arrive by boat, and the natural ... -
Big data insights into the distribution and evolution of tropical diversity
(2018-04-06)Tropical America (the Neotropics) and tropical Africa have comparable climate and share a geological history as parts of Gondwana. Nevertheless, the Neotropics today harbour roughly three times more flowering plant species ... -
Structural Features of Bacteriophytochromes. Photoactivated Proteins studied by Serial Femtosecond Crystallography
(2018-03-22)The key to life on earth is sunlight, which reaches the planet as an energy source. Nature has evolved different types of photoreceptor proteins to detect optimal light conditions for biochemical processes. A type of red ... -
Bivalves in the face of ocean acidification
(2018-03-22)Anthropogenic CO2 emissions are leading to a gradual decrease in ocean pH and changes in seawater carbonate chemistry, a process known as ocean acidification (OA). Such changes in oceanic environmental conditions will ... -
Selectivity in the chlorate process: Hydrogen evolution and hypochlorite reduction on deposited chromium oxide/hydroxide
(2018-02-22)Abstract Production of chlorate is dependent of using sodium dichromate as a component in the electrolyte. Dichromate provides selectivity by forming a Cr(III) oxide-like film on the cathodes. Without dichromate, unwanted ... -
Effect of Microwaves on Microtubule Structure and Function probed by Light and X-ray Scattering
(2018-02-15)We are constantly exposed to radiation in some form or another from our environment. High frequency electromagnetic radiation, including ultraviolet light and X-rays, cause damage to living organisms due to ionization ... -
Alkali Metals and Tar in Biomass Thermochemical Conversion: Development and Application of Online Measurement Techniques
(2018-02-08)Biomass is a renewable resource that can substitute the fossil-based products we depend on today. However, the conversion techniques require further improvement in order to be competitive with the traditional industry. One ... -
A Soot Transformation Study: Interactions Between Soot, Sulfuric Acid and Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA)
(2018-01-19)Atmospheric black carbon (BC), generally called soot, is the most important aerosol component that warms the Earth’s climate significantly, and reducing atmospheric soot level has been proposed as a strategy for near-term ... -
Atmospheric oxidation: Formation and aging of biogenic and traffic-related secondary aerosols
(2018-01-11)Atmospheric aerosol particles affect the quality of life by influencing climate and by being a significant component of air pollution. Once a particle is released into or formed in the atmosphere, several processes begin ...
