Geographic information systems are used to integrate historical water quality data with information layers derived from diverse sources and represents important tools for the water resources management at watershed scale. This study aimed to collect data sources at the watershed level and compare coincident water quality parameters to find spatial and temporal changes related to land use / land co

INTERNSHIP REPORT Internship at Chimbo Foundation October 2021 – January 2022 Internship supervisor: Annemarie Goedmakers Intern: Petya Kirjazow I did my internship at Chimbo Foundation. Chimbo is a Dutch NGO that was established in 2007. Their main mission is to guarantee the long-term survival of the Western Chimpanzee in the Boé, Guinea-Bissau, through community based conservation efforts. The

Background and purpose The introduction of Monte Carlo (MC) techniques for treatment planning and also for verification purposes will have considerable impact on the radiation therapy planning process. The aim of this work was to use a virtual accelerator to study the performance of a MC-based electron dose calculation algorithm, implemented in a commercial treatment planning system. Methods The
An aqueous system containing fluorapatite (Ca-5(PO4)(3)F), (FAP) and varying amounts of goethite (alpha-FeOOH) has been investigated. Batch experiments and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy were used to monitor the dissolution products of FAP, as well as the adsorption, and phase transformation of phosphate at the goethite surface over a period of 129
The intraobserver reproducibility of ultrasonic volume blood flow measurements in the human fetus was evaluated in this study. A new approach, simultaneous measurement of the vessel diameter and the flow velocity with a pulsed-wave Doppler ultrasound synchronized with a real-time ultrasound phase-locked echo-tracking system, was used to estimate volume blood flow (VBF) in the fetal descending aort
This work focuses on the optimization of the Nuclear Reaction Analysis (NRA) technique to determine the content of lithium and fluorine in geological materials. Measuring low concentration of these isotopes is of great relevance in many fields such as geological, astrophysical, biological and material sciences. Light elements as lithium and fluorine are considered as geochemical tracers in vario
Abstract: Cognitively advanced animals are usually assumed to possess better self-control, or ability to decline immediate rewards in favour of delayed ones, than less cognitively advanced animals. It has been claimed that the best predictor of high such ability is absolute brain volume meaning that large-brained animals should perform better than small-brained ones. We tested self-control ability
PCR of TCR/Ig gene rearrangements is considered the method of choice for minimal residual disease (MRD) quantification in BCP-ALL, but flow cytometry analysis of leukemia-associated immunophenotypes (FCM-MRD) is faster and biologically more informative. FCM-MRD performed in 18 laboratories across seven countries was used for risk stratification of 1487 patients with BCP-ALL enrolled in the NOPHO A
Reciprocating compressors hold great promise for enhanced efficiency across a wide variety of microscale and macroscale systems. This article investigates the potential of isothermal compression strategies by introducing two modeling approaches for the time-dependent analysis of reciprocating compressors. First, a thermodynamic model is developed based on conservation of mass and energy for a cran
Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is more efficient and produces significantly less NOx emissions compared to spark ignitions. Using an exhaust recompression strategy to achieve HCCI, however, produces cycle-to-cycle coupling which makes the problem of controlling combustion phasing more difficult. In the past, a linear feedback controller designed with a single linearized model is ef
Efficient design of urban drainage systems is based on statistical analysis of past rainfall events at fine time scales. However, fine time scale rainfall data are usually lacking in many parts of the world. A possible way forward is to develop methods to derive fine time scale rain intensities from daily observations. This paper applied cascade-based disaggregation modeling for generation of fine
The 4th Industrial Revolution provides a window of opportunity for the developing world and in particular, Sub-Saharan Africa to catch-up in terms of social and economic development by enhancing growth through technological advances. At the same time, it bears the risk for Sub-Saharan Africa to fall even further behind if technological advances cannot be absorbed into the region’s economies. Altho
Background: The awareness concerning adequate sedation in mechanical ventilated patients has increased in recent years. The use of a sedation scale, to continually evaluate the patientfs response to sedation, may promote earlier extubation and subsequently have a positive effect on the intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay. The Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale (RASS) provides ten well-defined
We present an upgraded version of the mocca code for the study of dynamical evolution of globular clusters (GCs) and its first application to the study of evolution of multiple stellar populations. We explore initial conditions spanning different structural parameters for the first (FG) and second generation of stars (SG) and we analyse their effect on the binary dynamics and survival. Here, we fo
Vårt eget märke? - En kvalitativ studie av lojaliteten till dagligvaruhandelns egna märkesvaror Forskningsfråga: Förekommer någon form av lojalitet gentemot EMV i svensk dagligvaruhandel, och vilka orsaker finns till detta? Syfte: Att undersöka vilka orsaker som ligger bakom konsumenters lojalitet till EMV inom svensk dagligvaruhandel. Som ett led i detta undersöks även konsumenternas benägenhet Our own brand? - A qualitative study of loyalty to the grocery trade's private labels Research question: Is there any form of loyalty to private labels in the Swedish grocery trade, and what are the reasons for this? Purpose: To investigate the reasons behind consumers' loyalty to private labels in the Swedish grocery trade. As part of this, consumers' tendency for variety-seeking aga
This study focuses on the severity gradation of non-collision events. Earlier theoretical work has suggested that a proper severity measure for an event should reflect the risk of personal injury, which is often split into two components, including the risk of a collision and the potential consequences had the collision taken place. While a great number of severity measures have been suggested, mo
Consistent datasets of experiments are highly important both for validation and optimization of kinetic mechanisms. An analysis of the data consistency of all available burning velocity measurements of hydrogen flames using the heat flux method at atmospheric pressure is performed in the present work. A comparison of many experiments performed in several laboratories with different types of diluti
