Inversions de température dans le Jura

2018

L'étude des inversions, événements climatiques qui provoquent de nombreux pics de pollution nocifs, est primordiale. Quatorze sites composés de deux stations proches et quatre autres mettant en relation une station de plaine avec une station de montagne permettent d'analyser la fréquence, l'intensité et la durée des inversions locales et régionales. La fréquence moyenne des inversions est élevée lors des tn (50 %) avec des maximums supérieurs à 70% en certains sites et en décembre. L'intensité des inversions tant locales que régionales est faible (respectivement 2°C et 1°C en moyenne). La durée des inversions est faible : 60 % d'entre elles concernent juste la fin de nuit. Parmi les inversi…

”Så nu jag frågar” : inlärning av inversion vid topikalisering

2014

Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää, kuinka paljon ruotsia opiskelevien yläkoululaisten ja lukiolaisten taito käyttää käännettyä sanajärjestystä päälauseissa kehittyy kolmen kouluvuoden aikana. Lisäksi selvitetään, ennustaako prosessoitavuusteoria oppijoiden kehityksen. Lisäksi tutkielmassa on tarkoitus tarkastella, mitkä asiat käännetyn sanajärjestyksen käytön onnistumiseen vaikuttavat. Aineisto koostuu kuuden kielenoppijan kirjoitelmista kolmen vuoden ajalta. Kielenoppijoista kolme on yläkoululaisia ja kolme lukiolaisia. Kirjoitelmat on kerätty Jyväskylän yliopiston kielten laitoksen ja Soveltavan kielentutkimuksen keskuksen yhteistä tutkimushanketta, Toisen kielen oppimisen polut -hank…

Joint interpretation of constrained electrical and seismic models to study the landslide affecting the Agrigento Cathedral

Integration of constrained electrical and seismic tomographies to study the landslide affecting the cathedral of Agrigento

2014

The Cathedral of Saint Gerland, located on the top of the hill of Agrigento, is an important historical church, which dates back to the Arab–Norman period (XI century). Unfortunately throughout its history the Cathedral and the adjacent famous Archaeological Park of the 'Valley of the Temples' have been affected by landslides. In this area the interleaving of calcarenites, silt, sand and clay is complicated by the presence of dislocated rock blocks and cavities and by a system of fractures partly filled with clay or water. Integrated geophysical surveys were carried out on the north side of the hill, on which the Cathedral of Agrigento is founded, to define lithological structures involved …

A delay model valid in all the regions of operation of the MOS transistor for the energy-efficient design of MCML gates

2013

This paper presents a novel delay model for MCML circuits valid in all the regions of operation of the MOS transistor, i.e., weak inversion (sub-threshold), moderate inversion (near-threshold) and strong inversion. The proposed delay model was employed to develop an automated methodology for the energy-efficient design of such circuits. The tradeoff that can be realized between energy and delay was investigated. Experiments were performed using different technologies to understand the impact of technology scaling on that tradeoff too. Major results of this study are as follows. In a circuit designed for minimum energy consumption, the minimum energy point occurs in the near-threshold region…

Sequential and joint hydrogeophysical inversion using a field-scale groundwater model with ERT and TDEM data

2013

Abstract. Increasingly, ground-based and airborne geophysical datasets are used to inform groundwater models. Recent research focuses on establishing coupling relationships between geophysical and groundwater parameters. To fully exploit such information, this paper presents and compares a joint hydrogeophysical inversion (JHI) approach and sequential hydrogeophysical inversion (SHI) approach to inform a field-scale groundwater model with Time Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM) and Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) data. The implemented SHI coupled inverted geophysical models with groundwater parameters, where the strength of the coupling was based on geophysical parameter resolution. To t…

Data from: Trans-oceanic genomic divergence of Atlantic cod ecotypes is associated with large inversions

2017

Chromosomal rearrangements such as inversions can play a crucial role in maintaining polymorphism underlying complex traits and contribute to the process of speciation. In Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), inversions of several megabases have been identified that dominate genomic differentiation between migratory and non-migratory ecotypes in the Northeast Atlantic. Here, we show that the same genomic regions display elevated divergence and contribute to ecotype divergence in the Northwest Atlantic as well. The occurrence of these inversions on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean reveals a common evolutionary origin, predating the more than 100,000 years old trans-Atlantic separation of Atlantic co…

Data from: Genome architecture enables local adaptation of Atlantic cod despite high connectivity

2017

Adaptation to local conditions is a fundamental process in evolution; however, mechanisms maintaining local adaptation despite high gene flow are still poorly understood. Marine ecosystems provide a wide array of diverse habitats that frequently promote ecological adaptation even in species characterized by strong levels of gene flow. As one example, populations of the marine fish Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) are highly connected due to immense dispersal capabilities but nevertheless show local adaptation in several key traits. By combining population genomic analyses based on 12K single nucleotide polymorphisms with larval dispersal patterns inferred using a biophysical ocean model, we show…

Data from: Ancient DNA reveals the Arctic origin of Viking Age cod from Haithabu, Germany

2018

Knowledge of the range and chronology of historic trade and long-distance transport of natural resources is essential for determining the impacts of past human activities on marine environments. However, the specific biological sources of imported fauna are often difficult to identify, in particular if species have a wide spatial distribution and lack clear osteological or isotopic differentiation between populations. Here, we report that ancient fish-bone remains, despite being porous, brittle, and light, provide an excellent source of endogenous DNA (15–46%) of sufficient quality for whole-genome reconstruction. By comparing ancient sequence data to that of modern specimens, we determine …
