Coupled carbon and nitrogen cycling regulates the cnidarian–algal symbiosis
Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Nils Rädecker
Efficient nutrient recycling underpins the ecological success of cnidarian-algal symbioses in oligotrophic waters. In these symbioses, nitrogen limitation restricts the growth of algal endosymbionts in hospite and stimulates their release of photosynthates ...
2023Spatio-temporal modeling of the crowding conditions and metabolic variability in microbial communities
Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Liliana Angeles Martinez
The metabolic capabilities of the species and the local environment shape the microbial interactions in a community either through the exchange of metabolic products or the competition for the resources. Cells are often arranged in close proximity to each ...
PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE2021The genetic architecture of complex human traits at the dawn of genomic medicine
The focus of the work presented in this thesis is the exploration of the genetic architecture of complex human traits - at the dawn of genomic medicine.
The underlying mechanisms explaining the enormously polygenic nature of most human complex traits are ...
EPFL2021Getting more from many & mdash;A framework of community resourcefulness in new venture creation
Emmanuelle Fauchart Foray, Julia Katharina Binder
In this study, we move beyond the predominant focus entrepreneurship researchers have put on the acquisition of financial capital from professional investors by exploring how, and with what effects, entrepreneurs can mobilize all required resources?financi ...
ELSEVIER2021Comparative exergy and economic assessment of fossil and biomass-based routes for ammonia production
The use of biomass gasification for partially or totally replacing methane in the integrated syngas and ammonia production plant is compared with the performance of the conventional route, typically based on steam methane reforming. However, by undertaking ...
PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2019ON THE ROAD TO A RESOURCE EFFICIENT EUROPE: RECENT FINDINGS FROM POLFREE RESEARCH
Concerning the use of natural resources in terms of raw materials, water, land and soil as well as with regards to CO2 emissions, the European Union (EU) aims at achieving ambitious targets (European Commission 2011). It is rather unambiguous that a socio- ...
A World Resources Forum Production, PSI2017The economic impact of climate driven changes in water availability in Switzerland
Marc Vielle, Camille Gonseth, Anne-Kathrin Faust
The broad objective of this study is to estimate the economic impact of changes in water availability due to climate change in Switzerland with a 2050 time horizon. To do so, the sectoral structure of the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3 is b ...
Iwa Publishing2015Extending database task schedulers for multi-threaded application code
Anastasia Ailamaki, Iraklis Psaroudakis
Modern databases can run application logic defined in stored procedures inside the database server to improve application speed. The SQL standard specifies how to call external stored routines implemented in programming languages, such as C, C++, or JAVA, ...
ACM2015Emerging predictable features of replicated biological invasion fronts
Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Francesco Carrara, Florian Altermatt
Biological dispersal shapes species' distribution and affects their coexistence. The spread of organisms governs the dynamics of invasive species, the spread of pathogens, and the shifts in species ranges due to climate or environmental change. Despite its ...
National Academy of Sciences2013Biotic plant-soil feedbacks across temporal scales
- Plant effects on soil biota can result in feedbacks affecting plant performance, with consequences for plant community and ecosystem dynamics on short and long time-scales. In addition, the strength and direction of plant-soil feedbacks depend on tempor ...
