Skandināvijas un Austrumbaltijas kultūras sakari vikingu laikmetā (7.-11.gs.)
2017
Zinātnisko pētījumu par 7.-11.gs. skandināvu kultūras sakariem ar Austrumbaltijas iedzīvotājiem ir nedaudz. Lielāka interese ir par kontaktiem ar Rietumeiropu un Krievzemi. Maģistra darba mērķis ir izpētīt skandināvu un Austrumbaltijas teritorijas iedzīvotāju kultūras sakarus 7.-11.gs. balstoties uz arheoloģiskajām liecībām un ziņām rakstītajos avotos. Darbā ir četras nodaļas 1. Vikingu laikmets Skandināvijā un Austrumbaltijā 7.-11.gs. 2. Arheoloģiskās liecības par militārajiem konfliktiem starp skandināviem un Austrumbaltijas iedzīvotājiem. 3. Arheoloģiskās liecības par tirdzniecības un kultūras kontaktiem starp skandināviem un Austrumbaltijas iedzīvotājiem. 4. Skandināvijas un Austrumbalt…

Obesity and Outcomes in COVID-19: When an Epidemic and Pandemic Collide.
2020
Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the United States and in much of the westernized world, contributing to considerable morbidity. Several of these obesity-related morbidities are associated with greater risk for death with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 penetrates human cells through direct binding with angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors on the cell surface. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 expression in adipose tissue is higher than that in lung tissue, which means that adipose tissue may be vulnerable to COVID-19 infection. Obese patients also have worse outcomes with COVID-19 infection, including respiratory failure, n…

Matching beer with food : pairing principles, underlying mechanisms and a focus on aromatic similarity
2018
Pairing between beer and dishes emerges as a new trend in France. Beer promoters or gastronomy professionals need to offer high-quality advices in terms of beer and food pairing to their customers. Within this context, the objective of the research was to identify pairing principles and to better understand the underlying perceptual mechanisms. Determinants of food and beverage pairing were first analysed from experts’ discourses. Results showed that food and beverage pairings are governed by perceptual, conceptual and affective features, related to physio-chemical, perceptual and cognitive processes. Experts often mentioned “Aromatic Similarity” as one of the main pairing principles. This …
Management diversity begets biodiversity in production forest landscapes
2022
How to manage forest for biodiversity conservation is an ongoing debate. We argue that maximizing biodiversity in managed forest landscapes requires a diversity of forest management regimes in space and time. This will generate high levels of habitat heterogeneity at a landscape scale, which in turn will support various groups of forest species. Based on concepts from landscape ecology, we formulate five hypotheses on how management diversity, i.e. combining various management approaches can benefit overall biodiversity across a production forest landscape. First, management diversity will increase habitat diversity and, therefore, beta diversity (the habitat diversity hypothesis). Second, …
Jautājumu izmantošana bioloģijas un ģeogrāfijas stundās skolēnu mācīšanās pilnveidei
2017
Valaine L., zinātniskais vadītājs Dr. paed.,Birziņa R. Bakalaura darbs, 45 lapaspuses, 10 attēli, 15 tabulas, 22 literatūras avoti, 12 pielikumi. Latviešu valodā. Darbā ir apskatīti jautājumi, kas saistīti ar skolēnu motivāciju un interesi mācību stundu laikā, to ietekmējošiem faktoriem un skolotāja ieguldījumu intereses un motivācijas rosināšanā uzdodot dažāda izziņas līmeņa un tipa jautājumus pēc Blūma taksonomijas līmeņiem. Darba mērķis ir noskaidrot, kā skolotāja uzdotie jautājumi atbilstoši mācību stundas fāzēm pilnveido un motivē skolēnu mācīšanos.

Evolution of microbiological and chemical parameters during red wine making with extended post-fermentation maceration.
2014
Abstract The aim of the present work was to investigate the microbiological, chemical, and sensory characteristics of red wine subjected to post-fermentation maceration that was extended to 90 days. For this purpose, the ‘Aglianico di Taurasi’ grape was used as a case study. The total yeast concentration increased until day 40 of maceration and decreased thereafter, whereas the concentration of lactic acid bacteria slightly increased. Dekkera/Brettanomyces spp. and acetic acid bacteria were not detected. The yeast community was composed of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Zygosaccharomyces bisporus, Metschnikowia pulcherrima, Hanseniaspora guilliermondii, Hanseniaspora uvarum, Pichia guilliermondi…
Sexes in gynodioeciousGeranium sylvaticumdo not differ in their isotopic signature or photosynthetic capacity
2017
• In gynodioecious plants, females are expected to produce more or better seeds than hermaphrodites in order to be maintained within the same population. Even though rarely measured, higher seed production can be achieved through differences in physiology. • In this work, we measured sexual dimorphism in several physiological traits in the gynodioecious plant Geranium sylvaticum. Photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductivity, transpiration rate, water use efficiency and isotopic signatures were measured in plants growing in two habitats differing in light availability. • Females have been reported to produce more seeds than hermaphrodites. However, we did not observe any significant difference…
