  1. 31. Using a GIS to enable an economic, land use and energy output comparison between small wind powered turbines and large-scale wind farms: the case of Oslo, Norway.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Colin Potter; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Wind power; Renewable energy sources; urban wind energy; urban areas; planning; vertical axis wind turbines; comparative studies; urban integrated energy systems; Oslo; Roan; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Responding to an identified knowledge gap, the study aims to determine if smaller wind turbines located on top of existing urban buildings are more resource efficient (land utilization and economically) than large scale wind farms. To answer this question, using a GIS, the resource efficiency of the Roan wind farm in Northern Norway was compared to a theoretical modeled installation of small-scale wind turbines on top of buildings within a 2km radius study zone in central Oslo.

  2. 32. SubKluster: Novel method to bin scaffolds from cereal genomes into subgenomes using substring frequency analysis

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Victor Kalbskopf; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : The genome of the Belinda variety of the hexaploid oat (Avena sativa) has recently been sequenced and assembled. This project aims to improve the assembly by clustering the thousands of scaffolds into their three ancestral subgenomes using Principle Component Analysis (PCA) of kmer and repeat-element frequencies.

  4. 34. Påverkan av ett gemensamt fysiskt träningsprogram på hundägarens hälsorelaterade livskvalité och kroppskomposition hos både hundägare och hund

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Nike Erlandsson; Julia Vingberger; [2023]
    Keywords : BCS; BMI; fysisk aktivitet; kroppsammansättning; hälsa; livskvalité; motivation; träningsprogram; övervikt;

    Abstract : Övervikt och fetma är ett ökande problem hos människor och hundar och ofta kan en korrelation ses mellan hundägarens och hundens hull. Gemensamma träningsprogram för hundägare och hund har visats kunna stimulera till fysisk aktivitet och därmed ett hälsosammare liv med minskad risk för en rad olika sjukdomar, en positiv effekt på lyckokänsla och välbefinnande samt minskad depression och ångest hos människan.

    Keywords : Phytoglobin; Heme; δ-ALA; qPCR; SDS-PAGE; Bacterial cultivation; Escherichia coli; BvPgb1.2; ÄKTA; Applied biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : The protein hemoglobin (Hb) is vital for us humans to ensure enough oxygen replacement in the body. Hb-resembling proteins also exist in plants, these are called phytoglobins (Pgbs). Pgbs are very interesting since they can play a considerable role in the development of blood substitutes and iron supplements for human use. READ MORE
