  1. 6. CAN LEAF LEVEL GAS EXCHANGE BE USED AS A PREDICTOR FOR DROUGHT TOLERANCE IN COMMON BEAN (PHASEOLUS VULGARIS)?

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Villemo Holmberg; [2022-08-16]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study aimed to examine drought tolerance among a variety of landraces of the species Phaseolus vulgaris to discover whether leaf level gas exchange can be used as a predictor for drought tolerance. Beans of different landraces from Rwanda were planted and when they had grown for four weeks a leaf-level gas exchange analysis was carried out, measuring one leaf from each plant both during the day and night.

  2. 7. Evaluating physiological phasic reaction and negative emotions in darkness within a video game setting : Using an EDA analysis and a game experience questionnaire

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Paulina Bonnevier; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background. Electrodermal activity (EDA) is a method to measure variations in the electrical conductivity of the skin, and it is often used to help assess emotions like anxiety, or stress. However, it is not yet commonly used in video games, although emotions are an essential aspect to consider when developing a game. Objectives. READ MORE

  3. 8. Evaluation of the LPJ-GUESS crop model under ambient and elevated CO2 concentrations.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Annika Nitschke; [2022]
    Keywords : LPJ-GUESS; free-air carbon dioxide enrichment experiments; elevated CO2; climate change; wheat yield; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : In the future atmospheric CO2 concentrations might exceed 550 ppm according to the RCP8.5 scenario by mid-century from our current 410 ppm, while our world population is projected to surpass the 9.7 billion threshold within the same time span. This challenge leads to the raising of questions addressing future food security. READ MORE

  4. 9. Simulating the Effect of Spatial Potential Variation in Nanodevices with the NEGF Method

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Markus Berthilsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this master thesis nanowires have been simulated to study the effect of spatial imperfections in the nanowires. This spatial imper- fection took the form of potential fluctuations in the conduction band across the wire. READ MORE

  5. 10. Capillary Organic Electronic Ion Pump for Delivering Malic Acid - Towards Better Understanding of Drought Tolerance in Tropical Plants

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Laboratoriet för organisk elektronik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Alexandra Sandéhn; [2021]
    Keywords : malic acid; malate; ion delivery; implantable devices; organic bioelectronics; plants; Teknisk fysik; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : Delivery of biologically relevant ions such as drugs, neurotransmitters and hormones have been recognized as powerful a tool to control physiology of animals and plants for research purposes and practical applications. In the plant research community, ions are most commonly delivered as part of a solvent by soaking, spraying, pipetting or by adding to the soil. READ MORE
