The dominance of isotropic hummocky cross‐stratification, recording deposition solely by oscillatory flows, in many ancient storm‐dominated shoreface–shelf successions is enigmatic. Based on conventional sedimentological investigations, this study shows that storm deposits in three different and stratigraphically separated siliciclastic sediment wedges within the Lower Cretaceous succession in ...

Integrated structural, geochemical, and geochronological investigations were conducted on metasedimentary rocks in the eclogite-bearing Tsäkkok Lens of the Seve Nappe Complex (Scandinavian Caledonides) to resolve its exhumation history. Three deformation events are defined. D1 is likely related to the prograde to peak-metamorphic stages, represented by a locally preserved S1. D2 resulted in vertical ...

Considering a coherent microscopy setup, influences of the substrate below the sample in the imaging performances are studied, with a focus on high refractive index substrate such as silicon. Analytical expression of 3D full-wave vectorial point spread function, i.e. the dyadic Green's function is derived for the optical setup together with the substrate. Numerical analysis are performed in order ...

Single-crystal X-ray structures were obtained for the copper and μ-oxodiiron complexes of 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18-octafluoro-5,10,15-triphenylcorrole, hereafter denoted as Cu[F8TPC] and {Fe[F8TPC]}2O. A comparison with the crystal structures of other undecasubstituted Cu corroles, including those with H, Ar, Br, I, and CF3 as β-substituents, showed that the degree of saddling increases in the order: H ...

A porphyrin cis tautomer, where the two central NH protons are on adjacent pyrrole rings, has long been invoked as an intermediate in porphyrin tautomerism. Only recently, however, has such a species been isolated and structurally characterized. Thus, single-crystal X-ray structure determinations of two highly saddled free-base porphyrins, β-heptakis(trifluoromethyl)-meso-tetrakis(p-fluorophenyl)porphyrin, ...

A combination of Cr K-edge XAS and DFT calculations have been performed on archetypal chromium porphyrinoid complexes Cr^IV[TMP]O (<b>2</b>) and Cr^V[TPC]O (<b>3</b>), and the results have been compared to the reference compound Cr^III[TPP]Cl (<b>1</b>), where TPP²⁻, TMP²⁻, and TPC³⁻ are the anions of <i>meso</i>-tetraphenylporphyrin, ...

Biological data is often visualized using networks. However, these networks face problems such as information overload, high interconnectivity, and high dimensionality. Existing approaches try to solve these problems by reducing the interactivity in favor of presenting more information or by using expensive hardware. This thesis aims to solve them using Virtual Reality (VR) and the Oculus Quest, an ...

While monitoring rodents in the Arctic Tundra to evaluate if climate changes affect the ecosystem. The camera-traps of the coat project generates image data in large scale each year. To manually examine the data in regards to label- ing is a tedious and time-consuming job, and a more efficient and automated tool for the task is required. In this thesis we presents the architecture, design and ...

In the European renewable energy portfolio, wind has a sizeable share in the total energy production. The Nordic and Baltic energy systems in particular are benefiting from wind energy to reach the greenhouse gas emissions reduction objectives set by the EU. The wind energy production varies with time, and this intermittent characteristic imposes a challenge for full utilization of renewable energy ...

Knowledge about frequency and location of snow avalanche activity is essential for forecasting and mapping of snow avalanche hazard. Traditional field monitoring of avalanche activity has limitations, especially when surveying large and remote areas. In recent years, avalanche detection in Sentinel-1 radar satellite imagery has been developed to improve monitoring. However, the current state-of-the-art ...
