  1. 16. Analysis of Antimicrobial Activity and Chemical Composition of Seaweed Extract from F. vesiculosus

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Författare :Madeleine Jönsson; [2016]
    Nyckelord :composition; antimicrobial activity; Fucus vesiculosus; Fucoidan; structure; function; biotechnology; bioteknik; Biology and Life Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Marine macro algae possess many beneficial bioactive properties which can be of interest in various applications. Components of interest in seaweed are for instance sulfated polysaccharides, defined as fucoidan, with antimicrobial activities and polyphenols with antioxidative properties. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Cenozoic history of North Atlantic deep sea carbonate preservation

    Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Författare :Marcus Länje; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Carbonate compensation depth; CCD; IODP; ODP; DSDP; Atlantic Ocean; subsidence modeling; Cenozoic; database of sediment lithologies; Google Earth;

    Sammanfattning : Carbonate preservation in the oceans occurs at a depth called the carbonate compensation depth (CCD). The CCD is where the input rate of carbonate from the surface of the ocean is balanced by the dissolution rate. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Adapting to Climate Change on the Coasts of Ireland: Lessons from California: How the Pacific can enlighten the Atlantic?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Cillian Mcmahon; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Climate Change; Adaptation; Coastal Areas; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Coastal areas throughout the world are vulnerable to the effects of a changing climate. The warming of the world’s oceans, and the consequent rise in sea levels, will result in more severe coastal flooding, in accelerated erosion, and in the increased occurrence of extreme weather events.

  5. 19. Response of Phytoplankton to Climatic Changes during the Eocene-Oligocene Transition at the North Atlantic ODP Site 612

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Lucía Rivero Cuesta; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Phytoplankton; abundance; coccoliths; silica; Eocene; Oligocene; Fytoplankton; antal; coccoliter; kisel; Eocen; Oligocen; Fitoplancton; abundancia; cocolitos; sílice; Eoceno; Oligoceno;

    Sammanfattning : The development of modern glacial climates occurred during the Eocene-Oligocene transition (34 to 35.5 Ma) when a decrease of atmospheric CO2 led to a global temperature fall. The ocean was deeply affected, both in the surface and the deep-sea, suffering a strong reorganization including currents and phytoplankton distribution. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Energy and hydrology modelling of hydropower in Eastern Canada

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Författare :Mimmi Ljungberg; [2015]
    Nyckelord :Rainfall runoff model; hydropower; Eastern Canada; electricity market; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Kanada är väldigt rikt på energiresurser och fjärde största vattenkraftproducenten i världen. Provinsen Quebec står för omkring 52% av Kanadas totala vattenkraftsproduktion, och ener- gimarknaden Quebec domineras fullständigt av vattenkraft: 96% av elen genereras där av vattenkraft. LÄS MER
