Popular Abstract in Swedish Recenta dödismiljöer framför Brúarjökull-glaciären på Island och Holmströmbreen på Svalbard har undersökts med speciellt fokus på landforms- och sedimentgenes samt kvantifiering av dödisavsmältningen. Fältmätningar, studier av tidsserier av flyg? och satellitbilder samt digitala terrängmodeller är dataunderlaget för kvantifieringen av dödisavsmältningen. SedimentologiskModern dead-ice environments in the glacier forefields of Brúarjökull, Iceland and Holmströmbreen, Svalbard were investigated with focus on landform and sediment genesis, as well as quantification of melting. Field monitoring and studies of multi-temporal aerial photographs, satellite imagery, and Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) provided data for the melting quantification. Sedimentological and ge

Sverige står inför en mycket stor investering inom järnvägen. Nya stambanor kommer att koppla samman Sveriges stora regioner och samtidigt minska restiden mellan dem. Järnvägen ses även som ett klimatsmart resealternativ, vilket bidrar till att fler väljer att ta tåget framfört till exempel flyget. Banorna kommer att utsättas för olika väder beroende på var i landet de befinner sig. Detta gör attSweden is facing big investments in railway infrastructure. The railway is seen as one of the better ways to travel to reduce the individual's carbon imprint. New mainlines will be built to interconnect the biggest cities and reduce travel time. Different parts of the line will have different kinds of weather, this results in different solutions depending on where in the country. New main line

Northern peatlands have accumulated carbon for thousands of years and currently hold around one third of all soil carbon on earth. Large uncertainties are associated with predictions of how northern peatlands will react to climate change. This is because the cold, wet and anaerobic conditions lead to two opposing forces from a radiative forcing perspective – CO2 sequestration from photosynthesis b

Med den globala uppvärmningen förutspås klimatet i arktiska och subarktiska miljöer förändras påtagligt. Enligt IPCCs senaste rapport kan både temperatur och nederbörd öka dubbelt så mycket som det globala genomsnittet, och störst ökning väntas under vinterhalvåret. Många känsliga ekosystem och miljöer kommer med stor sannolikhet att påverkas redan vid små förändringar. Ett exempel på sådana miljöThe on-going global warming is projected to have large impacts on the arctic and subarctic environment. Especially vulnerable are ecosystems with narrow climatic envelopes and with small possibilities of adaptation. An example of this is the palsa mires, subarctic mire complexes with patches of permafrost. Palsas are peat mounds with a frozen core, formed by the expansion and upheaval of the segre

De mest framgångsrika planetbildningsmodellerna som forskare jobbar med idag härstammar från en idé som kom fram för nästan 300 års sedan, under 1700-talet. Det var den svenske forskaren Emanuel Swedenborg och den tyske filosofen Immanuel Kant som kom fram med en hypotes som vi idag kallar Solnebulosan. Idén bygger på att solen bildades från ett gigantiskt stoftmoln som kollapsade, på grund av graPlanetary embryos grow by the accretion of solid dust-material, ranging from cm- to m-sized pebbles up to km-sized planetesimals. However, the underlying size-distribution of the accreted material is poorly understood. When the pebbles and planetesimals encounter a protoplanet, they are subjected to the gaseous environment of the protoplanetary envelope. Because of the drag-force from the gas, the

The aim of this study was to investigate mental health and emotion regulation strategies of unaccompanied asylum-seeking children and adolescents. A survey was conducted, using questionnaires that also contained queries regarding the participants’ belief of the future. A total of 95 boys in the ages of 13 to 17 years old, living in seven refugee housing facilities, answered the questionnaire “The

The influence of alkyl chain on the physical and photochemical properties of D-A-π-A-π-A sensitizers (GZ-121 and GZ-124) for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) was investigated through density functional theory (DFT). Key aspects examined include geometry, optical characteristic, electron injection, intramolecular charge transfer, and dye regeneration. Adsorption models of dye@TiO2, short-circuit

We present a temperature-dependent intensity modulated two-photon excited fluorescence microscopy technique that enables high-resolution quantitative mapping of charge carrier dynamics in perovskite microcrystal film. By disentangling the emission into harmonics of the excitation modulation frequency, we analyze the first and second order charge carrier recombination processes, including potential

Based on the DCV-C60 system of fullerene acceptor organic solar cell active materials, the charge transfer process of D-A type molecular materials under the action of an external electric field (Fext) was explored. Within the range of electric field application, the excited state characteristics exhibit certain regular changes. Based on reducing the excitation energy, the excitation mode shows a t

Lead-free metal halide perovskites are emerging as less-toxic alternatives to their lead-based counterparts. However, their applicability in optoelectronic devices is limited, and the charge transport dynamics remain poorly understood. Understanding photo-induced charge and structural dynamics is critical for unlocking the potential of these novel systems. In this work, ultrafast optical and Raman

Platinum(II) complexes of the type [Pt(thioether)2Cl]+(thioether = dimethyl sulfide, thioxane) are capable of abstracting a phenyl group from the BPh4 counterion with formation of trans[Pt(thioether)2ClPh] compounds. Thermal reactions proceed both in the solid phase and in nitromethane solution at elevated temperature and have preparative importance. Phenylation of the Pt(II) centre also occurs inPlatinum(II) complexes of the type [Pt(thioether)2Cl]+(thioether = dimethyl sulfide, thioxane) are capable of abstracting a phenyl group from the BPh4 counterion with formation of trans[Pt(thioether)2ClPh] compounds.

According to the Swedish higher ordinance of education the development of autonomy of PhD students is of high importance. Graduates should be able to formulate new ideas and to independently assess and evaluate scientific results. Therefore it is interesting to investigate how the relationship between student and supervisor impacts the development of autonomy. In this work, we have evaluated the i

The large genus Prunus has many cultivated species. Many Prunus fruits are edible, but also wood and other plant parts are used for various purposes.

Fluorescence lifetime determination has proven to be useful, e.g. identification of molecules, quantitative estimation of species concentration and determination of temperatures. Lifetime determination of exponentially decaying signals is challenging if signals of different decay rates are being mixed, resulting in erroneous results. Such issues occur when the contrast of the measurement object is

Over the past two decades, intensive research efforts have been devoted to suppressions of Auger recombination in metal-chalcogenide and perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) for the application of photovoltaics and light emitting devices (LEDs). Here, we have explored dodecahedron cesium lead bromide perovskite nanocrystals (DNCs), which show slower Auger recombination time compared to hexahedron nanocr

This article contains an overview of the current proposals of converging IP-networks with PSTN. We describe Parlay and Open Service Access( OSA), two of the most promising architecture.
