  1. 1. System ecology of legumes mixes in ley production : impact on pollinating insects and further implications for production in northern Sweden

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

    Author : Philippe Simon; [2023]
    Keywords : Ley production; Nitrogen fixation; Pollination ecology;

    Abstract : The population and diversity of pollinating insects in Europe are declining, partly due to lossof habitat. In agricultural landscapes, farming practices with more intensified land use haveincreased. In Swedish agricultural habitats, most ley production is dominated by grass and red clover (Trifolium pratense). READ MORE

  3. 2. Legacy effects of temperature alterations on microbial resistance and resilience to drying and rewetting

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Franklin Lee Harris; [2023]
    Keywords : microbial ecology; soil; carbon dynamics; high latitudes; climate change; moisture stress; isotopes; respiration; trait based ecology; soil microbes; Environmental Changes in High Latitudes EnCHIL ; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : With warming in soils due to climate change, a series of secondary factors arise, which have multifaceted effects on soil microbial communities. Of these, alterations to soil moisture are among the most crucial to understanding how microbial functions will change in the face of climate change. READ MORE

  4. 3. The effects of sweeteners on the intestinal microbiota among individuals with eating disorders

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry

    Author : Nellie Nyd; [2022]
    Keywords : Microbiota; sweeteners; eating disorders; bulimia nervosa; binge-eating disorder; anorexia nervosa; depression; psychopathology; bacteria; microbes; archaeon;

    Abstract : In today's society, the number of people who fall ill with various eating disorders is growing at a furious pace, the queues for treatment are getting longer at the same time as younger people are affected. In addition, it is a common phenomenon with ineffective treatments, where setbacks and relapses are common. READ MORE

  5. 4. Computational modelling of photosynthetic excitons coupled to a microcavity

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Ilmari Turunen; [2022]
    Keywords : Cavity QED; LH2; Chlorophyll; Exciton; Polariton; Transition dipole moment; Absorbance; Physics and Astronomy; Chemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) is a theory that is used for describing the interaction between matter and cavity modes. Not until relatively recently, cavity QED has been extended to the study of photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes (LHCs). READ MORE

  6. 5. Microbial ecosystem analysis of biochar-enriched soil in Kenya using microfluidic soil models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Erik Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Soil microbial ecosystem analysis; Microbe abundance; Microbe foraging; Biochar; Agriculture; Microfluidics; In-situ visualization; Kenya; SoilChip; Soil model; Minor Field Study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Healthy soil is rich in diverse microbial life, and a healthy microbial ecosystem is crucial for any well-functioning agriculture. Soil microbes are essential for organic decomposition and nutrient recycling in the soil, which make nutrients available for agricultural crops. READ MORE
