Organic substrates for pelagic bacteria are derived from dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the water column that originates either from primary production from within the lake itself (autochthonous), or import of organic matter from the terrestrial watershed (allochthonous production). This thesis addresses the utilization of allochthonous versus autochthonous carbon (C) sources by lake bacteriopl
Popular Abstract in Swedish Spridningshamstring är en form av matlagring som används av många djur för att t.ex. överleva en lång svår vinter då det finns mycket lite mat i naturen. I Sverige är talltitan en av de i särklass främsta spridningshamstrarna och den brukar lagra tiotusentals frön inför varje vinter. Ett flertal andra mesfåglar, nötskrikor och nötkråkor har samma vanor. Det som skiljer Food hoarding is a widespread behavior among a large number of animals, and it exists in several different varieties, all of them used by the animals as a method of having a steady supply of food during periods of low food abundance such as the winter. This thesis concentrates mainly on two aspects of scatter food hoarding behavior, using small birds as study and model animals. Scatter hoarding is
During the past few years, extensive effort has been devoted to developing quality systems as an integral part of the process in the construction sector. The construction process is complex, involving many different actors with different interests. The demand for quality assurance comes primarily from central authorities via the client, but quality systems should be applied throughout the whole ch
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det övergripande syftet med denna avhandling var att lyfta fram barns kreativitet och barnens egna perspektiv på kreativitet, som en kontrast till studier som undersöker begreppet ur ett vuxenperspektiv och utifrån en akademisk definition. Avhandlingen består av två kvasi-experimentella studier och en intervju studie. I Studie I undersöktes associationer mellan kreativiThe main aim of the present investigation was to highlight middle childhood creativity, and the children’s perspective on creativity, in contrast to many, if not most, studies that investigate creativity from an adult perspective and a scholarly definition. This dissertation consists of two quasi-experimental studies, and one interview study. Study I investigated if, and how, state anxiety, brough
The southern section of the Mylonite Zone (MZ) is a major lithotectonic terrane boundary in the SW Baltic Shield. It separates the parautochthonous Eastern Segment of the Sveconorwegian orogen from the allochthonous Western Segment. Complex zircons in migmatised and banded orthogneisses along the southern MZ were investigated by ion microprobe analyses guided by backscattered electron imaging to d
Background: Ghrelin derives from endocrine cells (A-like cells) in the stomach (mainly the oxyntic mucosa). Its concentration in the circulation increases during fasting and decreases upon re-feeding. This has fostered the notion that the absence of food in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract stimulates the secretion of ghrelin. The purpose of the present study was to determine the concentration
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Several studies report a favorable short-term outcome after nonoperatively treated two-column thoracic or lumbar burst fractures in patients without neurological deficits. Few reports have described the long-term clinical and radiological outcome after these fractures, and none have, to our knowledge, specifically evaluated the long-term outcome of the discs adjacent to the fra
Background The impact of the prophylactic vaccine against human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6, 11, 16, and 18 (HPV6/11/16/18) on all HPV-associated genital disease was investigated in a population that approximates sexually naive women in that they were "negative to 14 HPV types" and in a mixed population of HPV-exposed and -unexposed women (intention-to-treat group). Methods This analysis studied
OBJECTIVES: the purpose of this study was to assess the predictive accuracy of conventional cardiovascular risk factors for incident heart failure and atrial fibrillation, and the added benefit of multiple biomarkers reflecting diverse pathophysiological pathways. BACKGROUND: heart failure and atrial fibrillation are interrelated cardiac diseases associated with substantial morbidity and mortality
Introduction Many kinds of footwear are used for various purposes in the workplace in Japan. Careful selection of footwear is needed to protect workers from coldness and to keep the performance of workers in cold workplace where employees have to work under -20℃. On the other hand, safety boots with high heat conductivity from foot to outside are needed for the workers in hot environments. But the
Popular Abstract in Swedish Forskningsfokus i den här avhandlingen har varit framgång i säljande skapad i säljare och köparinteraktioner på och mellan makro-, meso- och mikronivå. Framgång har studerats som ett värde med konsekvenser för utbytesprocessen eftersom framgång påverkar aktörernas agerande i säljar- och köparinteraktionen på olika nivåer i företagen. Studien är avgränsad till framgång iThe research focus in this dissertation has been on success in selling as created in the seller and buyer interaction on and between macro-, meso- and micro levels. Success seen as a value has consequences for the exchange process, since it affects the actor's action in the seller and buyer interaction on different levels in companies. The study of value is limited to success in selling as a value
Rapporten redovisar data om hur SI-verksamheten vid fem civilingenjörsprogram vid LTH inverkar på studieresultaten under det första läsåret samt på resultaten i en inledande matematikkurs till vilken SI-verksamheten är knuten.

Popular Abstract in Swedish År 2011 är det exakt 20 år sedan lärarkåren kommunaliserades. Reformen ger fortfarande upphov till diskussioner, inte minst från liberalt håll diskuteras idag lärarprofessionens status och vilka konsekvenser kommunaliseringen har medfört. I Professionens problematik analyseras motiven bakom kommunaliseringen. Historikern Johanna Ringarp visar att reformen var ett led i On 8 December 1989, the Swedish Parliament resolved that the state regulation of teaching positions would be terminated beginning on 1 January 1991. The parliament’s decision came on after fierce debates that took place in both teacher staff rooms and in public in 1989. Almost 20 years later, the reform still gives rise to controversy, and current political debates also touch on the possibility of

METHODS: A total of 23 patients underwent direct intra-aneurysm sac pressure (DISP) measurements 16 months (IQR: 14-35 months) after EVAR. Tip-pressure sensors

Popular Abstract in Swedish Idag röker cirka 6% av alla gravida kvinnor i Sverige. I vissa regioner är andelen så hög som en av tio gravida kvinnor. Trots att det betyder att det har skett en kraftig nedgång sedan man började mäta utbredningen av graviditetsrökning i början på 80-talet, visar siffror att denna nedgång verkar ha avstannat. Det är känt sedan länge att rökning under graviditeten är sGlobally, around 10 % of women smoke during pregnancy today. It is known that pregnancy smoking increases the risk of adverse short-term health effects in the offspring, such as preterm birth, low birthweight and spontaneous abortion. Less is known about whether any adverse health effects persist until adulthood. In Sweden, there are nationwide population-based health registers that are becoming i

Sammanfattning Allt fler människor blir infertila. För att lösa problemet att få ett genetiskt barn har flera länder i vår omvärld börjat använda och tillåta surrogatmödraskap. I Sverige har åsikterna tidigare varit att det varit en allt för oetisk metod. Under årens lopp har dock värderingarna ändrats något och idag pågår en livlig debatt om altruistiskt surrogatmödraskap ska bli tillåtet. AltruiSummary Infertility is increasing. Because of this several countries around the world have begun to allow surrogacy as a means of procuring a genetic child. In Sweden, the previously held view was that surrogacy is unethical. However, over the years societal values have begun to gradually change. Presently there is a lively debate concerned with allowance of altruistic surrogacy. Altruistic surrog
