  1. 26. In-vivo imaging of root growth in response to localized mechanical stress

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Author : Leah Eitelberg; [2022]
    Keywords : kinematics analysis; time-lapse imaging; root growth rate; root curvature; soil heterogenety; local mechanical stress;

    Abstract : By taking up nutrients and water, root growth has an important influence on plant growth and productivity. Thereby, root growth is influenced by its surrounding soil conditions, which vary spatially even on a small scale. Hence, different parts of the root system are exposed to different penetration resistances in the soil. READ MORE

  3. 27. Maintaining well-being when working remotely : Work habits of employees at a geographical IT office in Sweden during the COVID-19 pandemic, their perceived well-being and productivity

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DVMT)

    Author : Henrik Sigeman; My Adolfsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Remote work; geographical IT; well-being; productivity;

    Abstract : The COVID-19 pandemic has in many ways changed how we live our lives. As a means to decrease the risks, working at a distance is now common for most employees during the pandemic. A problem that has arisen is getting overall information on how employees well-being and productivity has been affected by the new forced work environment. READ MORE

  4. 28. RTIC - A Zero-Cost Abstraction for Memory Safe Concurrency

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Henrik Tjäder; [2021]
    Keywords : Embedded systems; real-time; concurrency; RTIC; RTFM; Real-Time For the Masses; Real-Time Interrupt-driven Concurrency;

    Abstract : Embedded systems are commonplace, often with real-time requirements, limited resources and increasingly complex workloads with high demands on security and reliability. The complexity of these systems calls for extensive developer experience and many tools has been created to aid in the development of the software running on such devices. READ MORE

  5. 29. The nutrient-color paradigm : A test based on a comperative analysis of lakes in four ecoregions in Sweden

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Viktoria Nordström; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The nutrient-color paradigm explains lake productivity as a function of the concentrations of nutrients and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in the water column.  Specifically, the paradigm predicts that primary production decreases with increasing concentrations of CDOM due to reduced light penetration, and increases with nitrogen or phosphorus concentration because these are typically the growth limiting elements for phytoplankton.

  6. 30. Topographic controls of drought impact on Swedish primary forests

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Johanna Asch; [2021]
    Keywords : Physical geography; ecosystem analysis; primary forest; boreal forest; drought impact; topography; drainage; climate change; random forest; terrain index; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Anthropogenic climate change has increased the frequency of extreme drought events and leads to “hotter” droughts. Topography controls plant available water and site-specific climatic conditions. Drought sensitivity may therefore vary over short distances between wet and dry locations of the landscape. READ MORE
