  1. 1. Exploring patterns in risk factors for bark beetle attack during outbreaks triggered by drought stress with harvester data on attacked trees: A case study in Southeastern Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Nikolaos Kouskoulis; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Forest ecosystems; Bark beetle outbreak; Southeastern Sweden; Predisposing factors; Triggering factors; Drought stress; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : ABSTRACT Raising temperatures and climate variability have intensified extreme weather events worldwide. These extremes can enhance and trigger possible pest outbreaks. Bark beetle attacks have become a major concern in regions with extensive spruce forest areas. Southeastern Sweden has faced repeated outbreaks resulting in widespread tree loss. READ MORE

  3. 2. Syn-Magmatic Deformation Structures in the Slaufrudalur Pluton, East Iceland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Chun Hei Ho; [2023]
    Keywords : Granite; Iceland; magma chamber; magmatic microstructure; melt fraction; mush; pluton; rheology; strain; syn-magmatic deformation;

    Abstract : Structures and deformation mechanisms of magmatic rocks are controlled by rheology. An increase in melt fraction can weaken a rock body and localises significant amount of strain. This interplay between rheology, melting and deformation in a magma reservoir, however, is not always clearly documented in literature. READ MORE

  4. 3. Residual Products in the Steel Industry Used for Briquetting

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Alexander Eriksson; Linn Isaksson; Jacob Lilliebjörn; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This report looks at the implementation of briquetting in the Swedish steel industry. Briquetting is a process in which residual products are mixed and compressed into a brick-like body in order to be added to the melt in a furnace. This report investigates the type of materials commonly used in briquetting as of today. READ MORE

  5. 4. Pseudomonas aeruginosa gene expression analysis using pangenome and PAO1 reference genomes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Yi Su; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Development in sequencing technologies has made the analyses of genetic material much more accessible. Processing sequenced data for an accurate analysis comes with its challenges, especially with the studies in microbial in clinical in vivo samples where difficulties in the collection of these samples for sequencing could lower the quality and contamination from the human host which might affect the accuracy of downstream analysis.

  6. 5. Total body perfusion imaging with 15O-water PET

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Anna Åhlström; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background Positron emission tomography scanners can be used together with the PET tracer 15O-water to image perfusion in the body. It has mainly been used to image perfusion in the brain and heart. The new total-body PET scanners have a larger axial field-of-view, making imaging of the whole body possible without moving the patient. READ MORE
