1. 1. Ecological risk assessment of pesticide use in rice farming in the Mekong Delta , Vietnam

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

   Author : Bubaraye Ohiosimuan Dirikumo; [2023]
   Keywords : Pesticides; Ecological Risk Assessment ERA ; rice farming; Mekong Delta; PRIMET Model; Exposure Toxicity Ratio ETR ; species sensitivity distribution SSD ; predicted environmental concentrations PECs ;

   Abstract : Pesticide use in rice farming is a common practice in the Mekong Delta and poses ecological risks to aquatic organisms, the environment, and human health. This study focused on the ecological risk assessment of pesticide use in rice farming using the PRIMET model as a decision support tool to evaluate the risks of pesticide exposure, ecotoxicity, and risk characterization, as well as employing the species sensitivity distribution (SSD) assessment model to calculate the potentially affected fraction (PAF) of species based on the computed predicted environmental concentrations (PECs) from PRIMET.

Genom att användaren bidrar med media som hon själv definerat som relevant för händelsen kan mobiltelefonen fungera som ett medium där kopplingar och relevans är upp till användaren. READ MORE

6. 5. System Identification applied to Cardiac Activation

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

   Author : Susana Santos; [2001]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering; Medicine and Health Sciences;

   Abstract : Clarifying the mechanisms maintaining atrial activity during atrial fibrillation (AF), still remains as a relevant topic. The purpose of this master thesis is to apply correlation analysis and system identification methods to study spatial and temporal propagation of atrial activation along coronary sinus (situated in the posterior left part of the heart, in the groove between left atrium and left ventricle) during paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) using data recorded catheter from 7 different patients.
