  1. 1. Uncovering Ocean Mixing near Rough Bathymetry : Using Broadband Acoustics

    Författare :Julia C. Muchowski; Christian Stranne; Martin Jakobsson; Lars Umlauf; Lars Arneborg; Fer Ilker; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ocean mixing; diapycnal mixing; broadband acoustics; turbulence microstructure; rough bathymetry; stratified flow over obstacles; observations of turbulent mixing; Baltic Sea research; maringeologi; Marine Geology;

    Sammanfattning : Ocean mixing related to rough bathymetry is highly dynamic and exhibits large spatial and temporal variability. Therefore, established in-situ methods as well as numerical models often lack the resolution to capture this type of mixing. In this thesis, acoustics are used to observe, map and quantify stratified mixing at unprecedented resolution. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Uncovering a Novel Pathway for Autoinflammation : With a Little Help from a Wrinkled Friend

    Författare :Mia Olsson; Kerstin Lindblad-Toh; Gerli Pielberg; Göran Andersson; Leif Andersson; Rikard Holmdahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; autoinflammation; hyaluronic acid; amyloidosis; canine model; genetic association; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : A major challenge in medical genetics is to identify the mutations underlying heritable diseases. Dogs are excellent genetic models in the search for causative mutations, as they constitute a large library of naturally occurring heritable diseases many of which are analogous to those suffered by man.

  4. 3. Uncovering the Past through ancient DNA : The Fate and Legacy of the last hunter-gatherers in Western Europe and Northwestern Africa

    Författare :Luciana G. Simões; Mattias Jakobsson; Torsten Günther; Cristina Valdiosera; Emma Svensson; Martin Sikora; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; human evolution; archaeogenomics; ancient DNA; population genetics; hunter-gatherer; Populationsbiologi; Population Biology; Genetik; Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : The genetic analysis of ancient human remains has revolutionized the study of human history, opening a direct window onto the demographic and evolutionary events that shaped our species' past. I use state-of-the-art ancient DNA methodologies, from sample collection and DNA extraction to data analysis, to study the ancient past of the western Mediterranean region, where climate does not favour DNA preservation.

  5. 4. Limited dietary diversity and consumption of ultra-processed and deep-fried foods among adolescents in rural Bangladesh : uncovering the two faces of suboptimal diet

    Författare :Mohammad Redwanul Islam; Eva-Charlotte Ekström; Syed Moshfiqur Rahman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rural adolescents; Dietary diversity; Ultra-processed food; Deep-fried food; Bangladesh; Matlab; Nutrition;

    Sammanfattning : Background: With an estimated number of 1.2 billion in the world, adolescents represent a major transformative force in global health. Optimum adolescent nutrition is increasingly important for scaling up population health gains in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) of South Asia. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Uncovering Magnetic Order in Nanostructured Disordered Materials : A Study of Amorphous Magnetic Layered Structures

    Författare :Panagiotis Korelis; Björgvin Hjörvarsson; Gabriella Andersson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Amorphous Materials; Magnetism; Amorphous Magnetism; Magnetic Measurements; Thin Films; Multilayers; Thin Film Deposition; Sputtering; FeZr Alloys; AlZr Alloys; X-ray Diffraction; Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The scope of this thesis is the study of the interplay between structure and magnetism in amorphous materials. The investigations focus on the growth of amorphous layers and the study of the influence of structural disorder and reduced physical extension on the magnetic properties of thin films and multilayers.
