Salt marshes are considered key ecosystems for climate regulation because they have a high carbon sequestration capacity. However, most studies of carbon sequestration capacity of these ecosystems have been performed in ...
The incorporation of unsymmetrical biaryl systems into peptide sequences is a strategy that can improve their biological activity. Due to the difficulty of arylating the 4(5}-position of the imidazole ring, this doctoral ...
This thesis is focused on the development of synthetic approaches to obtain new bioactive peptides. The first part deals with the design of new antimicrobial peptide/cell-penetrating peptide conjugates as anticancer agents. ...
This thesis presents the development of a localization and mapping algorithm for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). It is based on probabilistic scan matching of raw sonar scans within a pose-based simultaneous ...
The work belongs to sustainability and culture, it is a research on how we act and what ecological responsibility we take, in the spaces dedicated to temporary art exhibitions. The objective is justified because museum ...
This dissertation offers a contrastive analysis of the (here called) Source prefix des- and the negative prefix iN- in Spanish that highlights the connections and divergences existing between the encoding of Source paths ...
La millora de la productivitat i la qualitat són indubtablement dues de les principals exigències del sector productiu modern i factors clau per la competitivitat i la supervivència. Dins aquest sector,la fabricació per ...
The objective of this thesis is to explore in greater depth the process of creating a public health observatory and the processing of the information needed to take territorial decisions in the county of Alt Empordà. The ...
Microbial Electrochemical Technologies (METs) are a promising alternative for capturing and in-situ reducing CO2 through the use of renewable electricity. Microorganisms grown in autotrophic conditions use CO2 as an electron ...
This thesis develops a quantitative approach to understanding and predicting the spatiotemporal distribution of biodiversity, based on a stochastic version of the theory of island biogeography. Here, I present R package ...
Antimicrobial Peptides have strong interest as a novel class of antimicrobial agents in the phytosanitary field. This Thesis focuses on the development of strategies to produce of BP100 derivatives (BP100ders) in genetically ...
Streams experiencing a recurrent non-flow phase (i.e., flow intermittency) are characteristic of world regions with arid and semi-arid climates, where Mediterranean regions are part of. During non-flow streambed sediments, ...
The main aim of the present study is to characterize the biological and biophysical properties of Apoptin, a viral protein that selectively induces apoptosis of a wide range of tumor cells. Apoptin has been produced and ...
This thesis focuses on the study of hydrogen dynamic behavior in a series of proton sponge cations as well as in bis(silyl)hydride organometallic complexes. To understand the dynamic behavior, a new tool, i.e. the ...
It all started in 1985, when Kroto, Smalley and Curl discovered by serendipity a new carbon allotrope. They synthesized for the first time the C60 molecule, and named it as ”Buckminsterfullerene”, because of the similarity ...
This thesis addresses the problem of learning in physical heterogeneous multi-agent systems<br/>(MAS) and the analysis of the benefits of using heterogeneous MAS with respect to<br/>homogeneous ones. An algorithm is developed ...
The global economy has suffered a serious crisis and rapid slowdown. globalization significantly increases the unbalanced use of finite, non- 2/1 renewable sources of energy, aggravating climate change. Millions of ...
El uso de barras de materiales compuestos (FRP) se propone como una alternativa efectiva para las tradicionales estructuras de hormigón armadas con acero que sufren corrosión en ambientes agresivos. La aceptación de estos ...
The human brain is a complex network that shares and processes information by using the structural paths between areas in order to perform a function. The connectome models the brain as a graph where nodes correspond to ...
The rehabilitation of buildings and infrastructure has gained importance in recent decades. Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) are effective for strengthening Reinforced Concrete (RC) structures due to their mechanical ...
