This thesis investigates the role of advanced atmospheric inversion techniques and ∆¹⁴CO₂ observations in improving the accuracy of regional CO₂ flux estimates across Europe. Accurate quantification of fossil fuel emissions and biospheric fluxes is essential for understanding regional carbon budgets and supporting climate policy. However, significant uncertainties persist due to limited observatio

Fragrance materials are widely used in various types of products in daily life and many of them can be contact sensitizers. Contact allergy to fragrances has been reported to be common worldwide. Unlike other groups of contact allergens such as metals and preser-vatives, fragrance materials in consumer products can be present as single fragrance chemicals or in the form of mixtures known as natura

The Warburg effect, which describes the fermentation of glucose to lactate even in the presence of oxygen, is ubiquitous in proliferative mammalian cells, including cancer cells, but poses challenges for biopharmaceutical production as lactate accumulation inhibits cell growth and protein production. Previous efforts to eliminate lactate production in cells for bioprocessing have failed as lactate

Introduction: The American Association of Neurologic Surgeons guidelines on the management of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), updated in 2013, focus on spinal cord perfusion, early decompressive surgery, and venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis to improve neurological outcome. Research question: How neurocritical care and initial management have changed with the implementation of updated m

Neural implicit representations have recently become popular in simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), especially in dense visual SLAM. However, existing works either rely on RGB-D sensors or require a separate monocular SLAM approach for camera tracking, and fail to produce high-fidelity 3D dense reconstructions. To address these shortcomings, we present NICER-SLAM, a dense RGB SLAM system

PURPOSE: Assistance from artefacts and humans are traditionally viewed as separate, and it is often up to the individual to try to combine the different kinds of assistance to suit their needs and preferences. The purpose of this study was to gain new insights into the co-existence of and synergies between artefactual and human assistance in the everyday lives of persons with physical and cognitiv

The issue of riba, that is, interest/the “excess” or “surplus” on loans is crucial for both Islamic and non-Islamic countries. Western economic systems use interest to distribute financial resources efficiently for investment and/or consumption, while Islamic economies pursue a completely different strategy for financing loans, which adheres to Islamic laws and prohibits the activities of conventi

This article aims first to understand how and why forced migrants decide to leavear stay in their first country af asylum, and second to contribute to the theory afagentic analyses af forced displacement. Our contribution adds to the growingbody af research examining the impact af social class and associated capitals anthe trajectories af forced migrants. Our analysis af the protracted displacemen

Which linguistic labels we use to name ourselves and others – such as disabled and non-disabled – make a difference regarding how we see ourselves and each other. Such labels may also say something about how we view society and the roles of people in it, as illustrated by the choice between people-first and identity-first labels. In the present study, we use a sample of 56,666 articles published b

Pool boiling is an effective heat dissipation approach in electronic cooling, battery thermal management, etc. This study used the electrochemical deposition method to fabricate one smooth nickel specimen (named Ni-smooth) and three specimens with a porous nickel-stacked structure. The three porous specimens were created with deposition current densities of 0.5 A·cm–2 (named Ni-0.5), 2.0 A·cm–2 (n

This paper presents millimeter-wave scattering from a building facade predominantly composed of windows. These windows are integrated into the walls, forming dihedral structures that reflect waves toward the incident angle. The scattered field resulting from the building facade is simulated using the two-bounce Geometrical-Physics (GO) method. We analyze the channel in power loss and arrival angle
