The Making of the NEAM Tsunami Hazard Model 2018 (NEAMTHM18)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The NEAM Tsunami Hazard Model 2018 (NEAMTHM18) is a probabilistic hazard model for tsunamis generated by earthquakes. It covers the coastlines of the North-eastern Atlantic, the Mediterranean, and connected seas (NEAM). ... -
Making predictions in a changing world: The benefits of individual-based ecology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-12-17)Ecologists urgently need a better ability to predict how environmental change affects biodiversity. We examine individual-based ecology (IBE), a research paradigm that promises better a predictive ability by using ... -
Making the best of lousy circumstances: The impact of salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis on depth preference of sea trout Salmo trutta
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)ABSTRACT: Sea trout are known for seeking out sources of freshwater to rid themselves of salmon lice. However, the effect of natural haloclines in fjords on parasite dynamics is not well understood. We tagged 48 naturally ... -
Making the BKW Algorithm Practical for LWE
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The Learning with Errors (LWE) problem is one of the main mathematical foundations of post-quantum cryptography. One of the main groups of algorithms for solving LWE is the Blum-Kalai-Wasserman (BKW) algorithm. This paper ... -
The male germ cell gene regulator CTCFL is functionally different from CTCF and binds CTCF-like consensus sites in a nucleosome composition-dependent manner
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-06-18)Background: CTCF is a highly conserved and essential zinc finger protein expressed in virtually all cell types. In conjunction with cohesin, it organizes chromatin into loops, thereby regulating gene expression and epigenetic ... -
Male mate choice and selectivity in relation to female body size, in the seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus
(Master thesis, 2019-06-21)Selectivity in mate choice and mating behaviour is a central element of sexual selection, and an important component of evolution in a number of species across the animal kingdom. Mate choice relates to how individuals ... -
Male mate choice and selectivity in relation to female mating status in the seed beetle Callosobruchus maculatus
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Sexual selection plays a role in evolution and often follows the pattern where males are fighting to mate, while females are choosy due to their higher gamete investment. Males can also be selective if they have high costs ... -
Male reproductive biology of European hake Merluccius merluccius
(Doctoral thesis, 2010-05-14)The reproductive biology of European hake (Merluccius merluccius) has been studied extensively in the field, but mainly focusing on fecundity regulation in females and its implications for the fishery. The European hake ... -
Mammalian herbivores restrict the altitudinal range limits of alpine plants.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Although rarely experimentally tested, biotic interactions have long been hypothesised to limit low-elevation range boundaries of species. We tested the effects of herbivory on three alpine-restricted plant species by ... -
Management-driven evolution in a domesticated ecosystem
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-12)Millennia of human land-use have resulted in the widespread occurrence of what have been coined ‘domesticated ecosystems’. The anthropogenic imprints on diversity, composition, structure and functioning of such systems are ... -
Managing biodiversity: Impacts of Legal Protection in Mountain Forests of the Himalayas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-08-04)Legal protection has been used as means of conserving forests and associated biodiversity in many regions of the world since the eighteenth century. However, most forests in the global south, even those within protected ... -
Managing spatial selections with contextual snapshots
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12)Spatial selections are a ubiquitous concept in visualization. By localizing particular features, they can be analysed and compared in different views. However, the semantics of such selections often depend on specific ... -
Mangrove forest extent and status along the Eritrean Red Sea coast
(Master thesis, 2015-10-08)A mangrove forest species and spatial extent study has been conducted in Eritrea to see if there has been mangrove forest area change over the last two decades, and to describe mangrove cover status. GIS, field work data ... -
Manipulating dynamical Rabi-splitting with two-color laser pulses
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)We theoretically investigate strong-field ionization of hydrogen atoms by orthogonally polarized two-color (OTC) laser pulses consisting of a fundamental field that is resonant with the 1s − 2p transition and its second ... -
The Mansurov effect: Seasonal and solar wind sector structure dependence
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We investigate the connection between the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) By-component and polar surface pressure, also known as the Mansurov effect. The aim of the investigation is to unravel potential dependencies ... -
The Mansurov effect: Statistical significance and the role of autocorrelation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Mansurov effect is related to the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and its ability to modulate the global electric circuit, which is further hypothesized to impact the polar troposphere through cloud generation ... -
Mantle exhumation at magma-poor rifted margins controlled by frictional shear zones
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The transition zone from continental crust to the mature mid-ocean ridge spreading center of the Iberia-Newfoundland magma-poor rifted margins is mostly composed of exhumed mantle characterized by highs and domes with ... -
Mapping benthic ecological diversity and interactions with bottom-contact fishing on the Flemish Cap (northwest Atlantic)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The ecological diversity of benthic invertebrates from bottom trawl surveys was mapped for the Flemish Cap, a plateau of ~200 km radius in the northwest Atlantic. Species density (SpD), the exponential Shannon diversity ... -
Mapping collinear in-medium parton splittings
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-07)We map the spectrum of 1→2 parton splittings inside a medium characterized by a transport coefficient q^ onto the kinematical Lund plane, taking into account the finite formation time of the process. We discuss the distinct ... -
Mapping Gas Hydrate Dynamics in Porous Media : Experimental Studies of Gas Hydrates as a Source of CH4 and Sink for CO2
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-03-20)The world needs more energy and the energy has to be more sustainable with respect to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. This is the backdrop for studying the diverse applications of gas hydrates in nature. The ice-like ...
