Agenda 2030 Graduate School monthly newsletter #10 2025-11-11 Ylva van Meeningen Hi! Okay! WHO stole all the time? I had put it in the corner of my office to be used later. There is a thief amongst us, I tell ya! I am sure many agree that this happens from time to time, that somehow your deadline snuck up on you. Do you know what my mantra has been regarding all this, in particular this year? It d
Boreal forests and peatlands are globally significant carbon stores but they are threatened by rising air temperatures and changes in precipitation regimes and the frequency of natural disturbances. Predicting how the boreal biome will respond to climate change depends on being able to accurately model and upscale the greenhouse gas fluxes between these ecosystems and the atmosphere. This thesis f
Background: Soils contain the largest stock of organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems and changes in soil C stocks may significantly affect atmospheric CO2. A significant part of soil C is present in cultivated soils that occupy about 35 % of the global land surface. Agricultural intensification has led to practices that may decrease soil organic carbon (SOC), and agricultural management has
AbstractNitrogenase is the only enzyme that can convert the inert nitrogen molecule to ammonia, so that it can be used for biomass production and in biosynthetic pathways. It contains a complicated acitve site, composed of eight metal ions, nine sulfur ions and one carbide ion (the FeMo cluster). Although it has been thoroughly studied with crystallographic, biochemical, kinetic, spectroscopic and
Motivation and Objective: This study investigates how analysts generate from data using business intelligence tools. The motivation for study at the premise that organizations are finding it very challenging to gener-ate insights from a vast amount of structured, semi-structured and unstructured data. The ini-tial problem background indicate that this may be because organizations are silo driven,
Introduction Common complications after surgical procedures include surgical site infection, wound rupture and incisional hernia. Wound healing can be influenced by the technique for abdominal access and closure. A Suture-Length to Wound-Length (SL/WLr) ratio ≥ 4 is advised to achieve a high-quality wound closure. This thesis describes the background and clinical realities of abdominal wall relate
As a complementary product to the Tetra Brik Aseptic packaging system, Tetra Pak is about to introduce a new, value added, aseptic packaging system called SCAP. The SCAP packages consists of a lower part made of carton and an upper part made of plastic, similar to a PET-bottle, resulting in a bottle shaped package. The purpose of this thesis is to design a logistical- and material-handling system
Max Bengtsson A Site Selection of An Energy Island in the North Sea: Optimal Location in an Ecological and an Economic Scenario Using a Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA). The Danish Government has decided to build an energy island, either as an artificial island in sand, concrete and steel or as a platform solution in the Danish exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of the North Sea. The idea of the

UNLABELLED: Affibody molecules are small (7 kDa) nonimmunoglobulin scaffold proteins with favorable tumor-targeting properties. Studies concerning the influence of chelators on biodistribution of (99m)Tc-labeled Affibody molecules demonstrated that the variant with a C-terminal glycyl-glycyl-glycyl-cysteine peptide-based chelator (designated ZHER2:V2) has the best biodistribution profile in vivo a
Nitrogenase is the only enzyme that can cleave the strong triple bond in N2, making nitrogen available for biological lifeforms. The active site is a MoFe7S9C cluster (the FeMo cluster) that binds eight electrons and protons during one catalytic cycle, giving rise to eight intermediate states E0–E7. It is experimentally known that N2 binds to the E4 state and that H2 is a compulsory biproduct of t
1. Using data from a 9-year study of the great reed warbler Acrocephalus arundinaceus L. carried out in Sweden, I tested the main assumption of the polygyny threshold model (that there is a cost of polygyny) and the main prediction (that this cost is compensated for). The main question was whether a female that chose a mated male (secondary females) experienced the same fitness as a female that at
Construction projects affect the community in both positive and negative ways. Positive effects are, for instance, better communications, better housing, and a higher standard of living. However, construction projects inevitably bring with them deterioration and changes on the local plane, at the site of the construction project. Thus, in construction projects, many different and sometimes controv
An initial model in the crystallographic structure determination process, usually contains many errors. To produce an accurate model, one must carry out several cycles of crystallographic refinement. Because of the limited resolution typically obtained for biomolecules, the experimental data are usually supplemented by some sort of chemical information, typically in the form of a molecular-mechani
Essential hypertension is a multifactorial disorder and is the main risk factor for renal and cardiovascular complications. The research on the genetics of hypertension has been frustrated by the small predictive value of the discovered genetic variants. The HYPERGENES Project investigated associations between genetic variants and essential hypertension pursuing a 2-stage study by recruiting cases
Accurate monitoring of glaciers’ extents and their dynamics is essential for improving our understanding of the impacts of climate and environmental changes in cold regions. The satellite-based Normalized Difference Snow Index (NDSI) has been widely used for mapping snow cover and glaciers around the globe. However, mapping glaciers in snow-covered areas using existing indices remains a challengin
