Using Direct Phloem Transport Manipulation to Advance Understanding of Carbon Dynamics in Forest Trees

Carbon dynamics within trees are intrinsically important for physiological functioning, inparticular growth and survival, as well as ecological interactions on multiple timescales.Thus, these internal dynamics play a key role in the global carbon cycle by determiningthe residence time of carbon in forests via allocation to different tissues and pools, suchas leaves, wood, storage, and exudates. De

Substantial hysteresis in emergent temperature sensitivity of global wetland CH4 emissions

Wetland methane (CH4) emissions ([Formula: see text]) are important in global carbon budgets and climate change assessments. Currently, [Formula: see text] projections rely on prescribed static temperature sensitivity that varies among biogeochemical models. Meta-analyses have proposed a consistent [Formula: see text] temperature dependence across spatial scales for use in models; however, site-le

Critical perspectives on implementation of evidence-based practice in occupational therapy – Exemplified by Lifestyle Redesign® in a Danish context

Introduction: Evidence-based practise is an increasing demand in occupational therapy, although multiple barriers can hinder the translation of research knowledge into practice. The article illuminates the transformation of results from a randomised controlled trial into a practice development project with future practice implementation in mind.

Ekonomiskt bistånd : Intervention i teori och praktik

Ekonomiskt bistånd är ett av de mest grundläggande uppdragen för ett välfärdssamhälle och har en genomgripande betydelse för de fattigaste i samhället. Det bygger på mycket gamla föreställningar och sätt att organisera arbetet med fattigdomsbekämpning, och frågan är ständigt aktuell. Det märks inte minst i debatter om exempelvis segregerade bostadsområden, vilka krav som ska gälla för att få bistå

Gaia Early Data Release 3: The Galactic anticentre

Aims. We aim to demonstrate the scientific potential of the Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) for the study of different aspects of the Milky Way structure and evolution and we provide, at the same time, a description of several practical aspects of the data and examples of their usage. Methods. We used astrometric positions, proper motions, parallaxes, and photometry from EDR3 to select different

Introducing the Brassica Information Portal : Towards integrating genotypic and phenotypic Brassica crop data [version 2; peer review: 3 approved]

The Brassica Information Portal (BIP) is a centralised repository for brassica phenotypic data. The site hosts trait data associated with brassica research and breeding experiments conducted on brassica crops, that are used as oilseeds, vegetables, livestock forage and fodder and for biofuels. A key feature is the explicit management of meta-data describing the provenance and relationships between

The Routledge Handbook of Mobile Socialities

This is a state-of-the-art survey of an emerging area of study in media, communication and cultural studies, mobility studies and mobile communications.‘Mobile socialities’ demarcates a new area of research that captures people’s various and con- trary experiences of media in relation to their mobilities and socialities. The chapters in this volume are written by a range of international scholars

Transported Immobility

In this chapter I take Barthes’ concept of transported immobility and allow it to travel from the dining car of a French train to the forests of Sweden and to my own experience of living in a digital media blackout zone. In ‘Dining Car’, Barthes’ reflects on the contrary experience of eating an elaborate meal in an upscale restaurant carriage. This entire mise-en-scene Barthes’ describes as a ‘mir

Evaluation of indicators for cyanobacterial risk in 108 temperate lakes using 23 years of environmental monitoring data

Background: Cyanobacterial blooms are of increasing concern for drinking water supply. In Sweden, a survey among drinking water producers showed that the sense of urgency was little. At 60% of the Swedish drinking water treatment plants, operators lacked monitoring strategies. To get a picture of the size of the problem the presence of cyanobacterial risk in 108 Swedish lakes was evaluated from 23

Heat Waves Alter Macrophyte-Derived Detrital Nutrients Release under Future Climate Warming Scenarios

In addition to a rise in global air and water mean temperatures, extreme climate events such as heat waves are increasing in frequency, intensity, and duration in many regions of the globe. Developing a mechanistic understanding of the impacts of heat waves on key ecosystem processes and how they differ from just an increase in mean temperatures is therefore of utmost importance for adaptive manag

Photoacoustic imaging of the spatial distribution of oxygen saturation in an ischemia-reperfusion model in humans

Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is a novel hybrid imaging technique that combines the advantages of optical and ultrasound imaging to produce hyperspectral images of the tissue. The feasibility of measuring oxygen saturation (sO2) with PAI has been demonstrated pre-clinically, but has limited use in humans under conditions of ischemia and reperfusion. As an important step towards making PAI clinically

Mediatisation and social sustainability – an ambivalent relationship

Mediatisation is one of the central concepts by which to understand how the intensifying media and communications environment constructs our social world. The aim of research is to examine the conditions of sustainability communication in a media economy of visibility and recognition. To this end, we focus on how the phenomenon overtourism is constructed as a social sustainability challenge in new

Neuronal Replacement in Stem Cell Therapy for Stroke : Filling the Gap

Stem cell therapy using human skin-derived neural precursors holds much promise for the treatment of stroke patients. Two main mechanisms have been proposed to give rise to the improved recovery in animal models of stroke after transplantation of these cells. First, the so called by-stander effect, which could modulate the environment during early phases after brain tissue damage, resulting in mod

The Other Side of SARS-CoV-2 Infection : Neurological Sequelae in Patients

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread around the globe causing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Because it affects the respiratory system, common symptoms are cough and breathing difficulties with fever and fatigue. Also, some cases progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The acute phase of COVID-19 has been also related to nervous system s
