  1. 41. Monosyllabic Circumflexion in Lithuanian

    Författare :Yoko Yamazaki; Jenny Larsson; Peteris Vanags; Thomas Olander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; historical linguistics; comparative linguistics; Monosyllabic Circumflexion; Lithuanian; Lithuanian 3rd person future forms; root noun; preposition; adverb; pronoun; Baltio-Slavic accentology; baltiska språk; Baltic Languages;

    Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis examines a phenomenon known as Monosyllabic Circumflexion (MC, hereafter) from a historical linguistics / phonological point of view. MC denotes a Lithuanian or Balto-Slavic phenomenon according to which long vowels and diphthongs in monosyllabic words exhibit a circumflex tone instead of the expected acute tone. LÄS MER

  2. 42. Investigations of temporal changes in climate and the geomagnetic field via high-resolution radiocarbon dating

    Författare :Anette Mellström; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; wiggle-matching; Radiocarbon dating; 14C; 2800 cal BP; climate change; solar activity; palaeomagnetism; lake sediments; varves; post-depositional remanent magnetisation; PDRM; lock-in; peat deposits; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Geological archives have shown periods of abrupt climate change in the relatively stable Holocene epoch (last ca. 11 700 years). One of these periods was around 2800 cal BP. Several records, mainly from Europe, reveal a shift towards wetter, cooler and windier conditions. LÄS MER

  3. 43. Climatic signals and frequencies in the Swedish Time Scale, River Ångermanälven, Central Sweden

    Författare :Mikkel Sander; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marklära; kartografi; klimatologi; pedology; cartography; climatology; Fysisk geografi; geomorfologi; geomorphology; Physical geography; winter precipitation; climate change; central Sweden; last 2000 year; discharge; varve;

    Sammanfattning : Any future climate variation forced by human activities will be superimposed on the background of natural climate variation. Therefore, before interpreting the present climate and addressing future climate scenarios some knowledge of past climate is necessary. LÄS MER

  4. 44. Tree Rings as Sensitive Proxies of Past Climate Change

    Författare :Håkan Grudd; Wibjörn Karlén; Brian Luckman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tree ring; width; density; climate; temperature; change; variability; sensitivity; Torneträsk; Tornetrask; Sweden; Fennoscandia; explosive; volcanic; eruption; Santorini; Thera; subfossil; Fitzroya; Chile; Physical geography; Naturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : In the boreal forests of the Northern Hemisphere, time series of tree-ring width (TRW) and maximum density in the latewood (MXD) are highly correlated to local instrumental summer-temperature data and are thus widely used as proxies in high-resolution climate reconstructions. Hence, much of our present knowledge about climatic variability in the last millennium is based on tree-rings. LÄS MER

  5. 45. Digital rhetoric and poetics : signifying strategies in electronic literature

    Författare :Talan Memmott; Ylva Gislén; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :electronic literature;

    Sammanfattning : The dissertation explores computational and media-based signifying strategies in electronic literature from the point of view of reading, writing, programming and design, with a focus on the rhetoric and poetics of heavily mediated, multi-modal digital artifacts. With the introduction of images, animations, audio, and the procedural into the area of literary practice it is perhaps no longer sufficient to consider electronic literature within the domain of traditional concepts of rhetoric or poetics.
