Landscapes of Dispossession : The Production of Space in Northern Tanintharyi, Myanmar

Since 2007, rural areas, particularly across the global south, have been ravaged by what has been dubbed a “global resource rush”. On the heels of this rush, a new wave of dispossession studies across the fields of agrarian political economy, human geography and political ecology is emerging. A decade into this wave, a series of conceptual challenges in the literature are identifiable, namely 1) t

Linkages between N turnover and plant community structure in a tundra landscape

The spatial distribution of organic soil nitrogen (N) in alpine tundra was studied along a natural environmental gradient, covering five plant communities, at the Latnjajaure Field Station, northern Swedish Lapland. The five communities (mesic meadow, meadow snowbed, dry heath, mesic heath, and heath snowbed) are the dominant types in this region and are differentiated by soil pH. Net N mineraliza

Diffraction in high-energy collisions

Denne afhandling omhandler processer med lave impuls-overførsler i højenergi partikel kollisioner. Disse processer kan ikke beskrives med perturbativ QCD, og baseres derfor ofte på Regge teori, udviklet før QCD. Flere modeller er udviklet indenfor dette område, og enkelte er i denne afhandling blevet udviklet og studeret. Alle modeller er implementeret som numeriske simuleringer (en Monte Carlo evThis thesis concerns itself with low-momentum-transfer processes in high-energy particle collisions. These processes cannot be described in the framework of the fundamental theory of quantum chromodynamics (QCD), but rely on a pre-QCD approach, the Regge theory. Several models containing various degrees of complexity have been proposed within this framework, some of which have been developed and s

Research on thermal properties of novel silica nanoparticle/binary nitrate/expanded graphite composite heat storage blocks

In order to study the effects of EG (expanded graphite) content and SiO2 nanoparticles on the specific heat and thermal conductivity of nano-SiO2/NaNO3–KNO3/EG composite heat storage materials, a series of nano-SiO2/NaNO3–KNO3/EG composites are prepared by the aqueous solution-ultrasound oscillation method. The nano-SiO2/NaNO3–KNO3 and EG with different mass fractions (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) are us

Filaggrin variations are associated with PAH metabolites in urine and DNA alterations in blood

Dermal chemical exposure is common in many professions. The filaggrin protein is important for the skin barrier and variations in the filaggrin gene (FLG) may influence the uptake of chemicals via the skin, and consequently, the degree of systemic effects. The aim of this study was to investigate, in chimney sweeps with occupational exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) from soot, the
