  1. 11. Unraveling the thermohaline structure of the Southern Ocean using functional data analysis

    Författare :Etienne Pauthenet; Fabien Roquet; Jonas Nycander; Alberto Naveira Garabato; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Southern Ocean; Front; Water mass; Antarctic Polar Front; Descriptive Physical Oceanography; Functional Principal Component Analysis; Elephant Seal; Biologging; atmosfärvetenskap och oceanografi; Atmospheric Sciences and Oceanography;

    Sammanfattning : The Southern Ocean connects the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans and provides a direct pathway to exchange mass, heat and salt across the Global Ocean, therefore playing an important role in the global climate system. Due to the complexity of its structure and the general inadequacy of its sampling, both in time and space, it remains a challenge to describe and visualize the three dimensional pattern of its circulation and the associated tracer distribution (temperature, salinity, oxygen or nutrients).

    Sammanfattning : The long poem Skördarne (The HArvest) by johan Gabriel Oxenstierna (1750-1818) was an attempt to do for the Swedish what Virgil had don for the Roman Countryside in his Georgics. However, "georgic poetry" was seldom recognised as a distinct genre by the classical system of poetics, and its relation to neighbouring genres were often unclear. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Deliberation, against all odds? : The critical prospects of mini-publics

    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In recent decades, the theory of deliberative democracy has encountered multiple challenges. In this thesis, I explore the prospects of a particular type of deliberative democratic institution – deliberative mini-publics – in three essays. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Geometric Models of Similarity

    Författare :Mikael Johannesson; Kognitionsvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; symmetry; similarity; separable dimensions; prominence; multidimensional scaling; Minkowski metric; machine learning; integral dimensions; familiarity; geometric models; distance metric; asymmetry; conceptual spaces; Computer science; numerical analysis; systems; control; Datalogi; numerisk analys; system; kontroll; Geometry; algebraic topology; Geometri; algebraisk topologi;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation examines and discusses some phenomena related to the geometric representation of similarity. It takes its inspiration from the existing body of empirical research within the fields of perceptual and cognitive psychology, but also connects to certain areas of machine learning. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Raumausdrücke im Deutschen : Semantische Form und konzeptuelle Struktur. Ein Vergleich mit dem Schwedischen

    Författare :Mikael Nystrand; Tyska; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; sematic form; conceptual structure; spatial expressions; local prepositions; motion verbs; positional verbs; contact verbs; space; applicative verbs; static relations; directionality;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to describe the conceptual structure of space and its relationship to semantics. It is a further aim to explain differences between German and Swedish verbal expressions of space, in which one language requires a directional and the other a static prepositional phrase. LÄS MER
