21. Light conditions in seasonally ice-covered waters : within the Baltic Sea region
Sammanfattning : Seasonal ice cover is a major driver of seasonality in aquatic ecosystems in the Baltic Sea region. Ice cover influences the underwater light conditions directly by limiting the light transfer and indirectly by modifying the mixing and circulation under the ice. LÄS MER
22. Spectral/hp Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Computational Hydraulics
Sammanfattning : We present the concept of spectral/hp element methods, i.e. finite element methods of arbitrarily (high) polynomial order, and apply the methods to computational hydraulics. LÄS MER
23. Meso-scale atmospheric flow modifications in the Baltic Sea area
Sammanfattning : The wind climate in coastal areas often shows large local variations. For example sea-breeze circulations, internal boundary layers (IBL) and low level jets (LLJ) may contribute to more complex wind conditions than otherwise would be expected over the sea. LÄS MER
24. Bacteria that escape predation : waterborne pathogens and their relatives
Sammanfattning : The hidden presence of opportunistic bacterial pathogens in the environment evokes concerns about emerging diseases, especially in the light of climate change. The co-evolution of bacteria and their predators (protozoa) has led to bacterial defence strategies of which some contribute to the ability of bacteria to cause disease. LÄS MER
25. Genetic response to pollution in sticklebacks; natural selection in the wild
Sammanfattning : The last century, humans have been altering almost all natural environments at an accelerating rate, including the Baltic Sea that has highly eutrophicated areas and many coastal industries such as Pulp-mills. For animals living in a habitat that changes there are basically two alternatives, either to cope with the change or become locally extinct. LÄS MER
