1. Impact of nitrogen availability and nitrogen structural composition on fungal enzymatic activity and growth : how nutrient availability governs response and development of three saprotrophic Basidiomycetes
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentSammanfattning : Fungi excrete a wide variety of extracellular enzymes to scavenge for nutrients, such as the often scarce yet essential nutrient nitrogen. All fungi produce highly specialized hydrolytic enzymes, e.g. peptidases, that depolymerize organic molecules. LÄS MER
2. Analysis of a shape morphing structural battery: manufacturing, analytical modeling and numerical simulation
Master-uppsats, KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanikSammanfattning : A reduction in the global use of fossil fuels is necessary when striving for a more sustainable future. One key strategy in the transition from fossil fuels is electrification. This strategy is particularly prominent within the transport sector, where more efficient ways to store electric energy are being pursued. LÄS MER
3. The importance of bacterial functional diversity for mixotrophic flagellate function
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : This project examined the role of functional diversity of bacterial prey organisms on a mixotrophic flagellate’s function. The concept of functional diversity and its role for ecosystem functioning is a subject of ongoing research and controversially discussed. Mixotrophy is the combination of different modes of nutrition in one organism. LÄS MER
4. The role of motivations and perceived ability to cycle as a mode of transport in an emerging cycling culture - the case study of Cork Metropolitan Area, Ireland
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografiSammanfattning : Cycling as mode of transport can be seen as a sustainable and active mode of travel that can be part of the solution for climate change and urban congestion. Many cities in Europe are now investing in cycling to reduce their carbon emissions and make their spaces more liveable and accessible. LÄS MER
5. Ecosystems Services in swidden agriculture in the Peruvian tropical Andes : the Kechwa-Lamas farm-forestry system
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural DevelopmentSammanfattning : In the Amazon, life supporting services are importantly associated to forest areas. Nevertheless, the connection of ecosystem services to agricultural systems it is also of great importance, because agriculture is one of the most important causes of degradation and loss of these areas.
