11. Characterizing Temporal Changes and Inter-Site Correlations in Daily and Sub-Daily Precipitation Extremes
Sammanfattning : Information on weather extremes is essential for risk awareness in planning of infrastructure and agriculture, and it may also playa key role in our ability to adapt to recurrent or more or less unique extreme events. This thesis reports new statistical methodologies that can aid climate risk assessment under conditions of climate change. LÄS MER
12. Plant phenology in seasonal environments
Sammanfattning : Phenology, or the seasonal timing life-history events such as emergence, reproduction and senescence will determine the outcome of interactions between plants and both abiotic and biotic aspects of the environment. Such timing is therefore of utmost importance for plants in seasonal environments. LÄS MER
13. On the abundance and distribution of organisms in fragmented riverscapes : Insights From Studies On Different Species And Spatiotemporal Scales
Sammanfattning : Dams in rivers modify the habitats and hinder dispersal and migration. Since moving around is an essential part of most organisms’ life histories, this represents a new regime for life in freshwater. LÄS MER
14. Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist : from animal studies to clinical practice
Sammanfattning : Patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) undergoing ventilator treatment may experience asynchrony with the ventilator, which has been associated with increased need of sedation, sleep disruption, prolonged mechanical ventilation and unsuccessful weaning from the ventilator. The search for new strategies to improve patient-ventilator interaction is ongoing. LÄS MER
15. On performance limitations of large-scale networks with distributed feedback control
Sammanfattning : We address the question of performance of large-scale networks with distributed feedback control. We consider networked dynamical systems with single and double integrator dynamics, subject to distributed disturbances. We focus on two types of problems. First, we consider problems modeled over regular lattice structures. LÄS MER
