1. 36. Dispersion Relations in Scattering and Antenna Problems

   Författare :Christian Sohl; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustic and electromagnetic waves; sum rules; scattering and absorption; causality; Herglotz functions;

   Sammanfattning : This dissertation deals with physical bounds on scattering and absorption of acoustic and electromagnetic waves. A general dispersion relation or sum rule for the extinction cross section of such waves is derived from the holomorphic properties of the scattering amplitude in the forward direction. LÄS MER

3. 37. Diatoms as indicators of Holocene climate and environmental change in northern Sweden

   Författare :Christian Bigler; Ingemar Renberg; Roland Hall; N. John Anderson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical geography and sedimentology; diatoms; Holocene; paleolimnology; climate change; lake sediments; transfer functions; quantitative environmental reconstructions; northern Sweden; Abisko; Naturgeografi och sedimentologi; Physical geography; Naturgeografi; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

   Sammanfattning : The objective of the thesis was to explore the potential of diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) as indicators of Holocene climate and environmental change in northern Sweden (Abisko region, 68°21'N, 18°49'E). A modern surface-sediment calibration set including 100 lakes was developed and lake-water pH, sedimentary organic content (assessed by loss-on-ignition) and temperature were identified as most powerful environmental variables explaining the variance within the diatom assemblages.

4. 38. Integrity promoting care of demented patients

   Författare :Mona Kihlgren; Astrid Norberg; Ingvar Karlsson; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dementia; nursing home; collective living; staff training; the E. H. Erikson theory; integrity; interaction; hermeneutics; GBS - scale; somatostatin; EEG;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of the thesis was to investigate if integrity promoting care improves functions in demented patients over time. The Erikson (1982) theory of ”eight stages of man” was used as a basis for training of staff in a three-month intervention study (I-VI) at a nursing home ward. LÄS MER

5. 39. Biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in created agricultural wetlands

   Författare :Geraldine Thiere; Stefan Weisner; Högskolan i Halmstad; []

   Sammanfattning : This doctoral dissertation was produced in a cooperation between Halmstad University (Wetland Research Centre, School of Business and Engineering) and Lund University (Limnology & Marine Biology, Department of Ecology).Abstract . LÄS MER

7. 40. On Modeling the Dynamics of Fixed Biofilm Reactors. With focus on nitrifying trickling filters

   Författare :Torsten Wik; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; operation; transfer functions; biofilm reactors; adsorption; dormancy; modeling; dynamics; nitrification;

   Sammanfattning : Fixed biofilms, which are matrix-enclosed populations of organisms attached to solid surfaces, are increasingly used in environmental biotechnology processes, such as the treatment of potable water and wastewater. This thesis aims to give some insight into the dynamic modeling of biofilms and fixed biofilm reactors, with a focus on nitrifying trickling filters (NTFs) for the treatment of wastewater. LÄS MER
