21. Debugging metabarcoding for insect biodiversity studies
Sammanfattning : Insects are one of the most abundant and diverse animal groups, and they include many valuable ecological indicator species, but taxonomic discovery projects and biodiversity surveys targeting this group are often challenging. While mass trapping devices allow the collection of insects in great numbers, the task of identifying the species present is a painstaking and resource-demanding process. LÄS MER
22. Modulation of neutrophil extracellular trap formation in health and disease
Sammanfattning : The critical prompt innate immune response is highly built upon the influx of neutrophils from the blood stream to the site of infection. In the battlefield, neutrophils sense pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) through their pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) to launch a number of responses with the goal to defeat the invading pathogen.

23. Stewardship in an urban world : Civic engagement and human–nature relations in the Anthropocene
Sammanfattning : Never before have humans wielded a greater ability to alter and disrupt planetary processes. Our impact is becoming so noticeable that a new geological epoch has been proposed – the Anthropocene – in which Earth systems might no longer maintain the stable and predictable conditions of the past 12 millennia.

24. Studies of Charge Transport Processes in Dye-sensitized Solar Cells
Sammanfattning : Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) have attained considerable attention during the last decade because of the potential of becoming a low cost alternative to silicon based solar cells. Although efficiencies exceeding 10% in full sunlight have been presented, major improvements of the system are however limited. LÄS MER
25. Vegetation and climate during Weichselian ice free intervals in northern Sweden : Interpretations from fossil and modern pollen records
Sammanfattning : In this thesis the Weichselian history of northern Sweden is investigated, with emphasis on vegetation and climate during ice-free intervals. The main method used has been pollen analysis of sediments from pre-Late Weichselian landforms. To interpret fossil pollen assemblages, comparisons with modern pollen spectra were made. LÄS MER
