Genetic relationships between sympatric and allopatric Coregonus ciscoes in North and Central Europe
2021
Abstract Background Sympatric speciation along ecological gradients has been studied repeatedly, in particular in freshwater fishes. Rapid post-glacial ecological divergence has resulted in numerous endemic species or ecologically distinct populations in lakes of the temperate zones. Here, we focus on the Baltic cisco (Coregonus albula) complex, to study the genetic similarity among two pairs of sympatric autumn- and spring-spawning populations from post-glacial German Lakes Stechlin and Breiter Luzin. For comparison, we included a similar pair of sympatric populations from the Swedish Lake Fegen. We wanted to explore potential genetic similarities between the three sympatric cisco populati…
In-Operando Lithium-Ion Transport Tracking in an All-Solid-State Battery.
2022
An all-solid-state battery is a secondary battery that is charged and discharged by the transport of lithium ions between positive and negative electrodes. To fully realize the significant benefits of this battery technology, for example, higher energy densities, faster charging times, and safer operation, it is essential to understand how lithium ions are transported and distributed in the battery during operation. However, as the third lightest element, methods for quantitatively analyzing lithium during operation of an all-solid-state device are limited such that real-time tracking of lithium transport has not yet been demonstrated. Here, the authors report that the transport of lithium …
Differences in mosquito (Diptera: Culicidae) biodiversity across varying climates and land-use categories in Eastern Spain
2011
Intensive larval samplings of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) were carried out between 2005 and 2008 in several biotopes located in a varying climate region in Eastern Spain. The biodiversity was analyzed and divided into alpha, beta and gamma components with the aim of comparing the mosquito biodiversity according to the different structure of the landscape due to the incidence of climatic and anthropic patterns. Likewise the synanthropic index of Nuorteva was calculated for each species. A total of 11,279 mosquitoes belonging to 29 species was collected and identified. Mosquito biodiversity is higher in the wettest and nonanthropized areas. Using a cluster analysis, all this information w…

Physical Inactivity from Youth to Adulthood and Risk of Impaired Glucose Metabolism
2018
Introduction: Physical activity (PA) is important in the prevention and treatment of impaired glucose metabolism. However, association of physical inactivity during the transition between childhood and adulthood with glucose metabolism is unknown. Therefore, we studied the association of persistent physical inactivity since childhood with glucose metabolism in adulthood. Methods: Data were drawn from the ongoing, Cardiovascular Risk in Young Finns Study with repeated follow-ups between 1980 and 2011 (baseline age, 3-18 yr; n = 3596). Impaired glucose metabolism was defined as having impaired fasting glucose (6.1-6.9 mmol·L-1) or type 2 diabetes in adulthood. Leisure-time PA habits were repe…

Estimating Lower Limb Skeletal Loading
2011
Osteoporosis, accidents and subsequent bone fractures cause suffering on an individual level, as well as an economical burden to the society (Ortiz-Luna et al., 2009; Stevens & Olson, 2000). It has been estimated that, in Finland alone, between 30,000 to 40,000 osteoporosis-related fractures occur annually and that 400,000 Finnish people have osteoporosis (Duodecim, 2008). There are a few potential ways of preventing bone fracture, i.e. strengthening bones and/or preventing falls (Ortiz-Luna et al., 2009; Stevens & Olson, 2000). In order to withstand prevalent loading without breaking; while remaining relatively light in weight to allow for locomotion, bones have the ability to adapt their …
Subjektiivinen tuntemus liikunnan kuormittavuuden ohjaajana inaktiivisilla naisilla : kuormittavuuden määrittäjinä syke ja askelfrekvenssi
2010
Tutkimuksen päätarkoituksena oli pilottitutkimuksen muodossa selvittää, minkälaisia fyysistä rasitusta mittaavia arvoja saadaan vähän liikuntaa harrastavilla naisilla, kun fyysisen rasituksen kuormittuneisuutta ohjaa etukäteen annettu ohjeistus subjektiivisesta tuntemuksesta kolmella eri kuormitustasolla. Objektiivisina mittareina tutkimuksessa käytettiin sykemittaria sekä askelfrekvenssiä. Lisäksi selvitettiin painoindeksin vaikutusta saatuihin arvoihin. Tutkimusaineisto koostui 13 Jyväskylän yliopiston opiskelijasta. Tilastollinen analyysi suoritettiin SPSS- ohjelmalla. Muuttujia, niiden riippuvuussuhteita sekä voimakkuuksia arvioitiin Pearsonin korrelaatiokertoimen sekä hajonta- ja boxpl…
Many-body Green's function theory of electrons and nuclei beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation
2020
The method of many-body Green's functions is developed for arbitrary systems of electrons and nuclei starting from the full (beyond Born-Oppenheimer) Hamiltonian of Coulomb interactions and kinetic energies. The theory presented here resolves the problems arising from the translational and rotational invariance of this Hamiltonian that afflict the existing many-body Green's function theories. We derive a coupled set of exact equations for the electronic and nuclear Green's functions and provide a systematic way to approximately compute the properties of arbitrary many-body systems of electrons and nuclei beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. The case of crystalline solids is discussed …
