Ignition and extinction characteristics of a material determine whether a fire will be initiated and grow. In fire safety engineering, where modellers deal with a multitude of materials, simplified thresholds are commonly used to determine when ignition and extinction occur.Such a threshold is the critical mass flux, which describes when sufficient fuel vapour is produced to support sustained flam

Seaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries. In the EU, the motivations for seaweed farming may be seen from two perspectives; one being economic growth through biomass production and the other being the provisioning of ecosystem services such as mitigating eutrophication. In this paper, we assess the economic potenSeaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries.

An introduction to the poetry of American poet Carolyn Forché (b. 1950) and Swedish translations of poems from her collection In the Lateness of the World (2020).

Cities are deploying tens of thousands of sensors and actuators and developing a large array of smart services. The smart services use sophisticatedmodels and decision-making policies supported by Cyber Physical Systems and Internet of Things technologies. The increasing number of sensors collects a large amount of city data across multiple domains. The collected data have great potential value, b

Finds and observations of the digger wasps Bembix rostrata L. and Philanthus triangulum F. are reported. They were found during a visit July 9-16 2019 in large aggregations in a nature preserve in Åhus, eastern Scania. The habitat provides shelter, open sand and several flowers as nectar resources. The ecology of the digger wasps are described.

Ecdysteroids are critically important for formation of the insect exoskeleton. Cholesterol is a precursor of ecdysone and its active form 20-hydroxyecdysone, but some steps in the ecdysteroid biosynthesis pathway remain unknown. An essential requirement of glutathione transferase GSTE14 in ecdysteroid biosynthesis has been established in Drosophila melanogaster, but its function is entirely unknow
