Exploring the Fermentation Parameters of Kombucha on Caffeine and pH Using Experimental Design and the Feasibility of Raman Spectroscopy in Kombucha Analysis
(Master thesis, 2023-09-30)Kombucha shows promising growth potential due to its claimed health benefits. Through an experimental design, the impact of the fermentation parameters on color and appearance, pH and caffeine content was further understood ... -
Exploring the Microseismicity of the Gakkel Ridge from Arctic Sea Ice
(Master thesis, 2013-06-03)Monitoring of microseismicity is an important tool to understand the magmatism, tectonics and hydrothermal circulation of a mid-oceanic ridge. In the presence of sea ice, use of ocean bottom seismometers is not practical, ... -
Exploring the Phase Space of Jet Splittings at ALICE using Grooming and Recursive Techniques
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Hard splittings in the evolution of a hard scattered parton may be modified by the presence of a dense strongly interacting medium. Grooming procedures can be used to isolate such hard components of a jet and allows one ... -
Exploring the potential of citizen science for de novo sequencing of MS/MS spectra
(Master thesis, 2022-06-15)Proteomics is the large-scale study of the function and structure of proteins expressed in a given sample. It generally uses mass spectrometry-based technologies to detect and identify changes in the proteome. One of the ... -
Exploring the potential of the RPA system SUMO for multipurpose boundary-layer missions during the BLLAST campaign
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-06-24)In June and July 2011 the RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft System) SUMO (Small Unmanned Meteorological Observer) performed a total number of 299 scientific flights during the BLLAST (Boundary Layer Late Afternoon and Sunset ... -
Exploring the use of nanofluids in pump-free systems for solar thermal applications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)By using nanofluids as a working fluid in pump-free designs, thermal energy systems can become more efficient and have reduced maintenance costs, ultimately extending the system’s lifespan. In this paper, our goal is to ... -
Exploring virtualisation tools with a new virtualisation provisioning method to test dynamic grid environments for ALICE grid jobs over ARC grid middleware
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)The Nordic Tier-1 centre for LHC is distributed over several computing centres. It uses ARC as the internal computing grid middleware. ALICE uses its own grid middleware AliEn to distribute jobs and the necessary software ... -
Exploring Ways of Creating an AI Drawing Assistant
(Master thesis, 2022-07-01)Making a digital drawing assistant is a complicated problem for the simple reason that we are trying to make a computer program understand and create something that are as abstract as a drawing. Thus, there have been many ... -
Exponential time algorithms: Structures, measures, and bounds
(Doctoral thesis, 2008-12-05)This thesis studies exponential time algorithms, more precisely, algorithms exactly solving problems for which no polynomial time algorithm is known and likely to exist. Interested in worst–case upper bounds on the running ... -
Export of calcium carbonate corrosive waters from the East Siberian Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-04-05)The Siberian shelf seas are areas of extensive biogeochemical transformation of organic matter, both of marine and terrestrial origin. This in combination with brine production from sea ice formation results in a cold ... -
Export of ice sheet meltwater from Upernavik fjord, West Greenland
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Meltwater from Greenland is an important freshwater source for the North Atlantic Ocean, released into the ocean at the head of fjords in the form of runoff, submarine melt, and icebergs. The meltwater release gives rise ... -
Exposure to cold temperatures differentially modulates neural plasticity and stress responses in post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The transfer success of farmed post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to sea-cages rely on neural adaptions to promote stress resilience. As low temperatures impact physiology, this suggests that off-season transfer to ... -
Expressing Unknown Instance Relations in Program Synthesis using Neurosymbolic Methods
(Master thesis, 2021-10-04)Program synthesis is the task of automatically constructing a program given a high level specification. An instance of this is Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) were discrete methods are used to construct a logic program ... -
Expression and function of the transcription factor Rx in Nematostella vectensis
(Master thesis, 2023-06-02)The development of the central nervous system is highly studied and a comparatively well understood field of neurogenesis. The fundamental aspects of neurogenesis have however mostly been studied in a select few bilaterian ... -
Expression and localization of the aryl hydrocarbon receptors and cytochrome P450 1A during early development of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that mediates the toxicity of dioxins and dioxin-like compounds (DLCs) in vertebrates. Two clades of the Ahr family exist in teleosts (Ahr1 and ... -
Expression of visual opsins in the retina of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) during smoltification
(Master thesis, 2020-06-24)Abstract: The visual system of Atlantic salmon is highly adapted to their migratory and dynamic life-history, where the profound transformational process of smoltification is crucial. The retina contain both rod- and cone ... -
Expressive Visualization and Rapid Interpretation of Seismic Volumes
(Doctoral thesis, 2009-10-27)One of the most important resources in the world today is energy. Oil and gas provide two thirds of the world energy consumption, making the world completely dependent on it. Locating and recovering the remaining oil and ... -
An Extended Scalar Sector: Charged Higgs and Dark Matter
(Doctoral thesis, 2013-10-11)Despite the great success of the Standard Model in describing many aspects of the experiments, there are compelling reasons that it needs to be improved. One of the major mysteries physics has been exploring is the composition ...
