16. Pikeivory: behavioural mechanisms in northern pike piscivory
Sammanfattning : Optimal foraging and prey preference in top predators may affect population and community dynamics and structure. Also, optimal foraging and prey preference may shift with prevailing conditions, and therefore create changes in the effect of predation. LÄS MER
17. Dynamic regulation of DNA methylation in human T-cell biology
Sammanfattning : T helper cells play a central role in orchestrating immune responses in humans. Upon encountering a foreign antigen, T helper cells are activated followed by a differentiation process where the cells are specialised to help combating the infection. LÄS MER
18. Diamond Devices Based on Valley Polarization
Sammanfattning : Diamond is a wide bandgap semiconductor with extreme properties such as high thermal conductivity, high breakdown field, high carrier mobilities and chemical inertness. These properties together with the possibility to synthesize high purity Single-Crystalline (SC) diamond by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), make it a very interesting material and a candidate for use in power electronics and in hazardous environments.

19. Towards a Sustainable Food System : Entrepreneurship, Resilience and Agriculture in the Baltic Sea Region
Sammanfattning : This thesis compares conventional agriculture and Ecological Recycling Agriculture (ERA) in terms of their environmental and socio-economic effects. Environmental effects include greenhouse gas emissions and energy use, but this analysis focuses on nutrient losses. LÄS MER
20. Fuel Reforming for Hydrogen Production in Heavy-Duty Vehicle Applications
Sammanfattning : The depletion of fossil fuels together with growing environmental concerns have created incitement for developing a more energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly vehicle fleet. The development towards cleaner heavy-duty vehicles started already in the 80’s with the introduction of emission legislations. LÄS MER
