The generalized sparse iterative covariance-based estimation ( $q$ -SPICE) algorithm was recently introduced for scanning radar applications, resulting in substantial improvements in the angular resolution and quality of the processed images. Regrettably, the computational complexity and storage cost are high and quickly increase with growing data size, limiting the applicability of the estimator.

Despite urgent need for climate action, denial of climate change and resulting absence of appropriate pro-environmental behavior are widespread. Interpretive (recognition of climate change as a problem but re-interpretation of its severity) and implicatory denial of climate change (recognition of climate change as a problem but denial of psychological, political, and moral implications) can be int

Floral scent is an important mediator of plant–pollinator interactions. Multiple recent studies report ample intraspecific scent variation among populations and individuals. Yet, few studies have eastimated effects of phenotypic plasticity on floral scent in response to differing environmental factors. In this study, we investigated the effects of nutrient and water availability on floral scent in

Objectives: To estimate resource use and costs, including direct and indirect costs, in relation to levels of severity in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) in a Swedish setting. Materials and methods: Patients with idiopathic PD registered in the National Parkinson's Disease Patient Registry (PARKreg), with registrations of Hoehn and Yahr (H&Y) and “off time” in the Skåne Region, were

We compared the odds of smoking cessation at 2-months post-myocardial infarction (MI), before and after implementing routines optimizing use of evidence-based smoking cessation methods, with start during admission. The following routines were implemented at six Swedish hospitals: cardiac rehabilitation nurses offering smokers consultation during admission, optimizing nicotine replacement therapy a

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is typically considered an age-related disease, but the age at disease onset can vary by decades between patients. Aging and aging-associated diseases can affect the movement system independently of PD, and advanced age has previously been proposed to be associated with a more severe PD phenotype with accelerated progression. In this work, we investigated how interactions

This article examines early Boy Scout camps as events of national display and localized internationalism. By detailing how the camp culture of the Swedish Boy Scout movement facilitated transnational integration, the article shows that internationalism as localized practice can be observed in summer camp environments from the early days of the twentieth century. Reports from these early camps high

We report multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock and relativistic configuration interaction calculations on the thallium (Tl) electron affinity, as well as on the excited energy levels arising from the ground configuration of Tl-. The results are compared with the available experimental values and further validated by extending the study to its homologous, lighter element, indium (In), belonging to

Oxygenic photosynthesis takes place in thylakoid membranes (TM) of cyanobacteria, algae, and higher plants. Itbegins with light absorption by pigments in large (modular) assemblies of pigment-binding proteins, which thentransfer excitation energy to the photosynthetic reaction centers of photosystem (PS) I and PSII. In green algaeand plants, these light-harvesting protein complexes contain chlorop

This paper reports results from a classroom dictator game comparing the effects of three different sets of standard instructions. The results show that seemingly small and typically unreported differences in standard instructions induce different perceptions regarding entitlement and ownership of the money to be distributed, and that these perceptions influence behaviour. Less is given when the ta

Computational methods to understand interactions in bio-complex systems are however limited to time-scales typically much shorter than in Nature. For example, on the nanoscale level, interactions between nanoparticles (NPs)/molecules/peptides and membranes are central in complex biomolecular processes such as membrane-coated NPs or cellular uptake. This can be remedied by the application of e.g. J

Sufficiency is a sustainability strategy aiming for (1) a decrease in absolute resource consumption on individual and societal levels, and (2) for socio-ecological justice and the fair distribution of costs and benefits of resource use to meet every human’s basic needs. This study examined a longitudinal intervention to foster individual sufficiency orientation (i.e., a multidimensional con-struct

BACKGROUND: Conventional dosages of cytostatics in mg/m2 will cause marked variations in systemic exposure, resulting in over- and under-treatment, at least with respect to side effects.PATIENTS AND METHODS: We are conducting a randomized adjuvant study for breast cancer patients younger than 60 years of age with > or = 70% risk of recurrence within five years. The first 89 consecutive patients wh

We report the strain and stress relationships for the three lowest energy direct band to band transitions at the Brillouin zone center in monoclinic β-Ga2O3. These relationships augment four linear perturbation parameters for situations, which maintain the monoclinic symmetry, which are reported here as numerical values obtained from density functional theory calculations. With knowledge of these
