Stress-induced hyperthermia (SIH) is commonly observed during handling in homeotherms. However, in birds, handling in cold environments typically elicits hypothermia. It is unclear whether this indicates that SIH is differently regulated in this taxon or if it is due to size, because body temperatures changes during handling in low temperature have only been measured in small birds ≤0.03 kg (that Stress-induced hyperthermia (SIH) is commonly observed during handling in homeotherms.

This paper explores the potential of corpus data to account for language users’ mental representations of a high-frequency item that is prone to phonetic reduction. We present an analysis of the realisations of semi-modal have to in spoken American English, which is a candidate for to-contraction (compare wanna and gotta) but has no clearly established contracted form. The study therefore focusses

Obesity is a worldwide epidemic, affecting children as well as adults. Obesity is a major risk factor for number of chronic diseases, it is closely related to premature mortality and other negative effects on health-related quality of life. Obesity places great economic burden on states as well as obese individuals themselves. Addressing obesity seems an urgent matter, but who should be responsibl

The global steel industry accounts for 8–10 % of global CO2 emissions and requires deep decarbonisation for achieving the targets set in the Paris Agreement. However, no low-emission primary steel production technology has yet been commercially feasible or deployed. Through analysing revisions and additions of European Union climate policy, we show that green hydrogen-based steelmaking in competit

BackgroundEarly identification of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains challenging. We aimed to identify key predictors of new-onset AKI within 48 h after ICU admission and renal replacement therapy (RRT) need within 7 days, using explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) with eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost). We also assessed whether XGBoost improved predictive peBACKGROUND: Early identification of acute kidney injury (AKI) in the intensive care unit (ICU) remains challenging.

Modal split in freight transport has become a major issue in the last decade. Whereas transports account for an increasing part of energy consumed in Europe, the growth of freight carried in the European Union has been more important than its economic growth. Hence, considering that modes of transport display different costs for the society, it is essential not only to understand what repercussion

In contemporary tourism, technology enables travelers to make travel arrangements in various ways, for example they can reserve tickets directly from airlines company’s website or purchase products from online travel agencies. Considering that travelers have many alternatives but insist in making transactions with traditional travel agencies, there must be something that makes traditional travel a

This paper examines the impact of COVID-19 on total net FDI inflows in Lithuania. More specifically, the aim is to fill in the gap that exists in previous research by focusing on the critical assessment of finding explanations behind the deviation of the net FDI inflow patterns during the pandemic. To study the relationship, the quarterly data is collected and a time series analysis has been imple

Ghana and Kenya have both made significant efforts to strengthen the skills profile of their young and growing workforces. Raising skill levels and matching workers correctly to jobs is believed to increase productivity and reduce unemployment. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the skills potential within the urban workforces of Ghana and Kenya using data from the Skills Towards Employment

Aim of the workshop: We invite colleagues to share experiences on cross-fertilization of art and social work research and to discuss how research-based art can serve as a catalyst for social change. Also, the workshop will give hands on knowledge on how to work with the method “deepened film talks”. Background: In a research project focusing moral stress and moral agency in social work, concrete s

The loading of macroelements such as, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), totalnitrogen (N) and total phosphorus (P) from terrestrial soils to aquatic systems isincreasing in the northern hemisphere. This phenomenon has several ecologicaland biogeochemical consequences for inland and coastal water systems, which arelinked to bacterial cycling of DOC, N and P. During growth, bacteria assimilatemacroeleThe loading of terrestrially derived macroelements, such as dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total nitrogen (N), and total phosphorus (P), to inland and estuarine waters is increasing in the northern hemisphere. Thesemacroelements often limit heterotrophic bacterioplankton metabolism (production and respiration), which in turn influence food web structures, exchange of greenhouse gases between the

The increase in electric vehicles has led to more vehicles of this kind being involved in accidents. Since there is a risk of a delayed initiation of thermal runaway in these cases, many countries have recommendations for safety distances from crashed vehicles to buildings.

A 24-hour bioblitz was performed by employees in the immediate surroundings of the Biological Institute in the city of Lund, South Sweden, on the 15th of June 2018. It produced 928 taxa, 411 of which were insects. Six species of Hymenoptera Parasitica were new to Sweden: Tumidiclava bimaculata (Blood), Lathromeris germanica (Girault), Aprostocetus crassiceps Graham, Quadrastichus anysis (Walker), Insect finds during the bioblitz of the Department of Biology in Lund in June 2018A 24-hour bioblitz was performed by employees in the immediate surroundings of the Biological Institute in the city of Lund, South Sweden, on the 15th of June 2018.

Background/Aim: The Kingdom of Cristal, an area in southern Sweden, is historically heavily burdened by heavy metals. Cadmium, lead, mercury and arsenic have previously been used in glass production and large amounts of glass crust have been deposited around the Kingdom of Cristal and used as filling material for the construction of new residential areas, parks and schools. The purpose of the proj

This chapter deals with children's participation in research concerning children's experience of exposure to violence, abuse or neglect and how ethical aspects of such research are regulated in Sweden. The Act (2003:460) on ethical review of research involving humans (etikprövningslagen, EPL), introduced in 2003, states that certain types of research require permission to be carried out. Since the
