Food security in Roman Palmyra (Syria) in light of paleoclimatological evidence and its historical implications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Food security in ancient urban centers is often discussed but rarely formally modelled. Despite its location in an inhospitable desert where food production is a constant challenge ancient Palmyra grew from a small oasis ... -
Views of young people with psychosis on using virtual reality assisted therapy. A qualitative study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aim Service disengagement is a challenge in young individuals struggling with psychosis. Combining cognitive behavioural therapy for psychosis (CBTp) with virtual reality (VR) has proven acceptable and potentially effective ... -
Towards stronger Lagrangean bounds for stable spanning trees
(Chapter, 2022)Given a graph G=(V,E) and a set C of unordered pairs of edges regarded as being in conflict, a stable spanning tree in G is a set of edges T inducing a spanning tree in G, such that for each {e_i, e_j} in C, at most one ... -
Psychiatric symptoms in COVID-19-positive individuals in the general population: Trajectories of depression, anxiety, and insomnia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The present study investigates differences in the trajectories of anxiety, depression, and sleep problems among infected versus non-infected case-controlled individuals. Patients who tested positive for COVID-19 were ... -
Spaces, Places and Things. The Spatial Dimension of Early Indian Ocean Exchange
(Chapter, 2022)Early exchange along the maritime Silk Road not only spanned immense distances, but was also subject to—among other things—seasonal weather systems, hazardous waters, arid and sparsely populated coastlines with few suitable ... -
Unfrozen Skewed Turbulence for Wind Loading on Structures
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The paper introduces an algorithm to generate a three-variate four-dimensional wind turbulence field suited for yawed wind dynamic load simulation. At large yaw angles, a relaxation of Taylor’s hypothesis of frozen turbulence ... -
Linked seasonality between a phoretic mite and its moth fly host (Parasitiformes: Mesostigmata and Diptera: Psychodidae)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Phoresy is a widespread phenomenon in mites. It allows mesostigmatid mites that are associated with ephemeral habitats such as mammal dung to travel fast on larger animals that can detect a proper habitat from a greater ... -
Physical activity intensity profiles associated with cardiometabolic risk in middle-aged to older men and women
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Accelerometers provide detailed data about physical activity (PA) across the full intensity spectrum. However, when examining associations with health, results are often aggregated to only a few summary measures [e.g. time ... -
Effect of diet on molecular relationships between Atlantic cod larval muscle growth dynamics, metabolism, and antioxidant defense system
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We studied molecular effects (RNAseq and qPCR) of first feeding prey types (copepods or rotifers/Artemia) on skeletal muscle myogenesis and growth dynamics (proliferation, differentiation), metabolism (glycolysis, ... -
From core schemas about the self and others to voice phenomenology: Anxiety and depression affect voice hearers differently
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Objectives Auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs) occur as a symptom in various mental disorders, and show different phenomenological aspects, depending on their underlying psychopathology. Anxiety and depression, which ... -
Performance in youth track and field is associated with birth quartile. A register-based study among athletes in Norway from 10 years to senior level
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Introduction Earlier studies have demonstrated that the oldest in a competition class are more likely to succeed than the youngest, a phenomenon called relative age effect (RAE). Track and field give us an opportunity to ... -
A winter-to-summer transition of bacterial and archaeal communities in Arctic sea ice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-15)The Arctic is warming 2–3 times faster than the global average, leading to a decrease in Arctic sea ice extent, thickness, and associated changes in sea ice structure. These changes impact sea ice habitat properties and ... -
Geographic variation in gene flow from a genetically distinct migratory ecotype drives population genetic structure of coastal Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Identifying how physical and biotic factors shape genetic connectivity among populations in time and space is essential to our understanding of the evolutionary trajectory as well as the management of marine species. ... -
Local Mapping of Polar Ionospheric Electrodynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)An accurate description of the state of the ionosphere is crucial for understanding the physics of Earth's coupling to space, including many potentially hazardous space weather phenomena. To support this effort, ground ... -
Enhancing Teachers’ Emotional Awareness Through Continuing Professional Development: Mission Possible?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In the context of the contemporary emphasis on the school’s role in supporting student wellbeing, this qualitative study explored the teachers’ experience of a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme, which ... -
Gender specific early treatment for women with alcohol addiction (EWA): Impact on work related outcomes. A 25-year registry follow-up of a randomized controlled trial (RCT)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background: Alcohol contributes to substantial economic burden, at both individual and community levels. We investigated the effect of the Early treatment for Women with Alcohol Addiction (EWA) treatment program on sickness ... -
Mothers at risk of postpartum depression in Sri Lanka: A population-based study using a validated screening tool
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Postpartum depression is an important public health concern. The prevalence of postpartum depression is estimated to be 18% worldwide. The purpose of this study was to estimate the prevalence of mothers at risk ... -
Sexual dimorphism and phylogenetic position of Chilodendron (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) – a long isolated lineage endemic to Madagascar
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Chilodendron Schedl, 1953 is resurrected as a valid genus based on Chilodendron planicolle Schedl, 1953. This is the only representative of the tribe Hylesinini Erichson, 1836 found on Madagascar and a molecular phylogenetic ... -
