Shortwave absorptance in a tropical cloudy atmosphere: Reconciling calculations and observations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-10-04)[1] The absorption of shortwave (SW) radiation by clouds is a topic surrounded by contradictory reports and controversy. Some studies have shown large discrepancies between observed SW absorption and absorption predicted ... -
“Show me how to use a microscope” – The development and evaluation of certification as direct assessment of practical lab skills
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Practical lab skills are rarely directly assessed. To improve constructive alignment between the described learning outcomes of practical skills and assessment, we developed and tested a certification procedure for microscopy ... -
The Sibling Distribution for Multivariate Life Time Data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A flexible class of multivariate distributions for continuous lifetimes is proposed. The distribution is defined in terms of the age-at-death of m siblings. The expression for the joint density is derived using classical ... -
Side Channel Analysis on Bitsliced AES
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)The current power analysis attacks on bitsliced AES only take into account the power consumption of a single bit. We present a way of combining multiple Differential Power Analysis attacks using different power models to ... -
Sigma coordinate pressure gradient errors and the basin problem
(Master thesis, 2010-04-15)This work will focus on how the internal pressure gradient errors affect the numerical instability in idealised ocean basins. The nature of the errors will be investigated and discussed. First, in Chapter 1, the ocean model ... -
Signal estimation in on/off measurements including event-by-event variables
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Signal estimation in the presence of background noise is a common problem in several scientific disciplines. An “on/off” measurement is performed when the background itself is not known, being estimated from a background ... -
Signal mixture estimation for degenerate heavy Higgses using a deep neural network
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12)If a new signal is established in future LHC data, a next question will be to determine the signal composition, in particular whether the signal is due to multiple near-degenerate states. We investigate the performance of ... -
Significant multidecadal variability in German wind energy generation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-12)Wind energy has seen large deployment and substantial cost reductions over the last decades. Further ambitious upscaling is urgently needed to keep the goals of the Paris Agreement within reach. While the variability in ... -
Silica-supported Z-selective Ru olefin metathesis catalysts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Recently reported thiolate-coordinated ruthenium alkylidene complexes show promise in Z-selective and stereoretentive olefin metathesis reactions. Herein we describe the immobilization of three Ru complexes containing a ... -
Silicate weathering in soils: A solution for soil pH management?
(Master thesis, 2015-09-30)N2O released form agricultural soils is mainly a product of denitrification; a key microbial process in the N cycle. The relative rate of N2O released from this process depends of the soil pH, where the relative amount of ... -
A Silicon Photomultiplier Based Readout System For A Cosmic Muon Telescope; Design And Implementation
(Master thesis, 2017-06-16)The Cosmic Ray Telescope (CRT) is a 4 m^2 scintillator detector segmented into 16 slabs with dimensions of 25100 cm^2. The detector is located at the Department of Physics, University of Bergen, and is intended primarily ... -
Similarity in Shape Dictates Signature Intrinsic Dynamics Despite No Functional Conservation in TIM Barrel Enzymes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-03-25)The conservation of the intrinsic dynamics of proteins emerges as we attempt to understand the relationship between sequence, structure and functional conservation. We characterise the conservation of such dynamics in a ... -
Similarity-based Exploded Views
(Lecture Notes in Computer Science; 5166, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2008)Exploded views are often used in illustration to overcome the problem of occlusion when depicting complex structures. In this paper, we propose a volume visualization technique inspired by exploded views that partitions ... -
Similarity-Based Methods and Machine Learning Approaches for Target Prediction in Early Drug Discovery: Performance and Scope
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-05)Computational methods for predicting the macromolecular targets of drugs and drug-like compounds have evolved as a key technology in drug discovery. However, the established validation protocols leave several key questions ... -
A simple adjustment to test reliability of bacterivory rates derived from the dilution method
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02)Quantification of grazing losses of marine heterotrophic bacteria is critical for understanding nutrient and carbon pathways in aquatic systems. The dilution method is a commonly used experimental approach for quantifying ... -
A simple method to detect spontaneous CP violation in multi-Higgs models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-08)For models with several Higgs doublets we present an alternative method to the one proposed by Branco, Gerard and Grimus, in 1984, to check whether or not CP is spontaneously violated in the Higgs potential. The previous ... -
Simple models combining competition, defence and resource availability have broad implications in pelagic microbial food webs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-09)In food webs, interactions between competition and defence control the partitioning of limiting resources. As a result, simple models of these interactions contain links between biogeochemistry, diversity, food web structure ... -
A simple spreadsheet-based, MIAME-supportive format for microarray data: MAGE-TAB
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-11-06)Background: Sharing of microarray data within the research community has been greatly facilitated by the development of the disclosure and communication standards MIAME and MAGEML by the MGED Society. However, the complexity ... -
A simple wavelet-based test for serial correlation in panel data models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Hong and Kao (2004) proposed a class of general applicable wavelet-based tests for serial correlation of unknown form in the residuals from a panel regression model. The tests can be applied to both static and dynamic panel ...
