In this thesis we consider different tests for unit roots in the presence of structural change. We present the theory that lies behind unit roots, what we mean by structural change and try to detect the instances that “breaks” occur in the data. When performing a unit root test, when there is a structural change the results are biased toward accepting a unit root. Therefore, special care must be t

The Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase (FAAH) Pro129Thr Polymorphism is not Associated with Severe Obesity in Greek Subjects

Fatty amid acid hydrolase (FAAH) has been implicated at both protein and gene level with obesity. An association between Pro129Thr variant of the FAAH gene and obesity has been described, but various studies have yielded conflicting results. Our aim was to determine whether this polymorphism is related to severe obesity and whether it confers a risk for variability of quantitative metabolic traits

Potential of a post-classification change detection analysis to identify land use and land cover changes : a case study in northern Greece

Användandet av fjärranalysdata är en viktig metod för att bestämma markanvändning och visa på förändringar i marktäcke. Fjärranalys kan ge en bättre utgångspunkt för övervakning av markytstäcke. Det gör det möjligt att geografiskt lokalisera förändrade markområden för att vidare kunna utföra noggrannare undersökningar om miljöförändringar (t.ex. markdegradering). Studieområdet är ett administrativThe use of remotely sensed data is an important method to indicate land use and land cover changes. Remote sensing can provide a better picture of monitoring land use and land cover changes. It makes it feasible to locate geographically changed areas in order to employ it further detailed studies on environmental changes (e.g. land degradation). The study area is a heterogeneous and small-structur
