  1. 1. Value, Fittingness and Partiality : On the Partiality Problem for Fitting Attitude Analyses of Value

    Författare :Nils Sylvan; Jonas Olson; Krister Bykvist; Graham Oddie; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; value; final value; value simpliciter; fittingness; fitting attitudes; fitting attitude analyses of value; FA account; partiality; partiality problem; distance problem; Michael Zimmerman; A. C. Ewing; Jonas Olson; Noah Lemos; Graham Oddie; Philosophy; filosofi;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation is about the partiality problem for fitting attitude (FA) analyses of value. More specifically, it is about whether and how the problem might be resolved. In Chapter 1, I set the stage by offering a short introduction to the topic and a rationale for investigating it. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Surface complexation in natural particle suspensions

    Författare :Qing Du; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemistry of Interfaces; Gränsytors kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is a summary of our studies on (i) the proton and copper adsorption at aqueous illite surfaces, (ii) the proton and copper complexation of humic substances (fulvic acid FA and humic acid HA), (iii) the interaction between illite and fulvic acid, and (iv) the copper complexation behaviors in illite-FA bi-complexant systems. These particular studies were designed to help us develop a framework for modelling heavy metal complexation/adsorption mechanisms at natural particle surfaces. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Effects of humic substances and pH on the speciation and adsorption of cadmium, mercury and arsenic

    Författare :Hao Xu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : The emission of acidifying substances to air causes not only immediate, easily observable effects on the environment, but also slowly emerging indirect effects. Among the latter, special attention has been given to changes in mobility and bioavailability of trace elements in the environment. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Producing, branding and managing multifaceted tourist destinations: Cartagena, Colombia, as a study case

    Författare :Narcís Bassols Gardella; Antonio Paolo Russo; Andrew Smith; Universitat Rovira i Virgili. Departament de Geografia; []

    Sammanfattning : The present dissertation intends to unveil some of the dynamics and processes found in multifaceted destinations. Two broad conceptual areas are considered in order to conceptualize and analyse the issues found in such places: destination making and destination management. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Kinase cascades in the regulation of glucose homeostasis

    Författare :Tatiana L Steiler; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Skeletal muscle; insulin resistance; T2DM; hyperglycemia; high fat diet; glucose transport; PI3K-; MAPK- and AMPK-signaling pathways; AMPKgamma3;

    Sammanfattning : Therapeutic strategies to treat Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) aim at improving muscle insulin sensitivity by either directly modulating, or bypassing defective insulin signaling. Insulin induces metabolic and gene regulatory responses via PI 3-Kinase (PI3K) and Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways, respectively. LÄS MER
