Einträge, Vorkommen, Verbreitung und gesundheitliche Bedeutung antibiotikaresistenter Bakterien in Abwasser und Gewässern: Ein sozial-ökologischer Beitrag zur Geographischen Gesundheitsforschung
(2011-11-29)
Antibiotika gelangen über natürliche Ausscheidung von Mensch und Tier sowie unsachgemäße Entsorgung in die Umwelt. Wichtige Eintragspfade stellen Abwasser, Klärschlamm und Gülle dar. Mikroorganismen können Resistenzen gegen ...
Rainforest change analysis in Eastern Africa: A new multisourced, semi-quantitative approach to investigating more than 100 years of forest cover disturbance
(2012-01-11)
Forest change and disturbance of the past strongly influence the state of today’s forests and their biodiversity. However, knowledge of former forest landscape states can be subject to misunderstanding and the practical ...
Underwater flight in sea turtles and plesiosaurs: Dissection, muscle reconstructions, analog models, and finite element structure analyses inform on flipper twisting and muscle forces in plesiosaurs
(2020-08-13)
This dissertation contributes to our understanding of plesiosaur locomotion by providing foreflipper and hindflipper muscle reconstructions and studying aspects of their muscle physiology (functions, forces, muscle length ......
Climate- and Human-Induced Vegetation Changes in Northwestern Turkey and the Southern Levant since the Last Glacial
(2017-04-20)
Northwestern Turkey and the southern Levant are key regions for studying vegetation and climate developments during migration phases of modern humans and the origin and expansion of agriculture. Both regions have a long ...
Biogeomorphic dynamics in the Turtmann glacier forefield, Switzerland
(2017-05-19)
Worldwide, glacier retreat enlarges glacier foreland areas, which are characterized by pronounced geomorphic and ecologic dynamics. Feedbacks between these dynamics are believed to drive glacier foreland landscape development, ...
The plesiosaur: remarkable morphology, histology, and physiology
(2019-07-04)
In this dissertation, contributions to understanding the morphology, histology, and physiology of plesiosaurs, a major group of marine reptiles from the Age of Dinosaurs, are presented. By using comparative methods and new ......
