During the last decades public awareness of the limitations of traditional engineering practices and the imperative to conserve nature have led to changes in river management; including river restoration measures. The enlargement of the fluvial corridor is ...
This paper analyzes the change in the postal sector over the past 20 years and in particular the strategic drivers that are transforming the postal services industries such as institutional, market and technological developments. Taking the argument from h ...
In Jura bogs, on deep and nutrient-poor peat, the ecotone between bog pine forest and Norway spruce forest is sharp and, in a few disturbed situations, no succession pine forest-spruce forest occurs. The bog Les Saignolis lies at the top of an anticline, o ...
The present thesis work provides new insight into the generation of allylmetal species and into their reactivity toward electrophiles. endo-Allylpotassiums are known to be more stable than their corresponding exo-isomers. The ring strain of methylenecycloa ...
The effect of pH on Pb bioaccumulation by Chlorella kesslerii was studied. Both Pb uptake fluxes and Pb bound to membrane transport sites increased with an increase in pH from 4.0-5.0, were relatively stable in the pH interval 5.0-6.5, and increased again ...
In this paper we present six scenarios about the possible evolution of the water supply and sanitation sector in Europe, considering both liberalised and non-liberalised environments. The scenarios were developed around three macro-storylines, namely (1) p ...
The Lund-Potsdam-Jena Dynamic Global Vegetation Model (LPJ) combines process-based, large-scale representations of terrestrial vegetation dynamics and land-atmosphere carbon and water exchanges in a modular framework. Features include feedback through cano ...
Optimal Operation of Batch Processes with Multiple Inputs and Constraints B. Srinivasan, S. Palanki, and D. Bonvin Optimal operation of batch processes has become increasingly important in recent years in the face of increased competition and also due to t ...
Different neural systems are involved in animal navigation depending on the type of task. Experimental studies support the idea that the hippocampus is necessary to learn a spatial representation required to navigate toward hidden goals (place response), w ...
The Escherichia coli mntH (formerly yfeP) gene encodes a putative membrane protein (MntH) highly similar to members of the eukaryotic Nramp family of divalent metal ion transporters. To determine the function of E. coli MntH, a null mutant was created and ...
