The Diachrony of Definiteness in North Germanic
This book is an account of the rise of definite and indefinite articles in Danish, Swedish and Icelandic, as documented in a choice of extant texts from 1200-1550. These three North Germanic languages show different development patterns in the rise of articles, despite the common origin, but each reveals interdependencies between the two processes. The matter is approached from both a quantitative and a qualitative perspective. The statistical analysis provides an improved overview on article grammaticalization, focusing on the factors at the basis of such process. The in-depth qualitative analysis of longer text passages places the crucial stage of the definite article grammaticalization with the so-called indirect anaphoric reference.
Variation in Nominal Possessive Expressions
This book is an account of the variation between two possessive constructions in Danish and Swedish: the s-genitive (husets tak ‘the house’s roof’), and the prepositional construction (taket på huset ‘the roof of the house’). Present-day corpus data, as well as historical data (texts from 1250–1550) are explored. Through statistical and qualitative analysis, various factors that influence the choice between the two constructions are identified. The book offers new data on the genitive variation in Danish and Swedish. The approach is also novel as two closely related Scandinavian languages are compared from both a historical and a contemporary perspective.
Phytohormones: A Window to Metabolism, Signaling and Biotechnological Applications
Abiotic and biotic stresses adversely affect plant growth and productivity. The phytohormones regulate key physiological events under normal and stressful conditions for plant development. Accumulative research efforts have discovered important roles of phytohormones and their interactions in regulation of plant adaptation to numerous stressors. Intensive molecular studies have elucidated various plant hormonal pathways; each of which consist of many signaling components that link a specific hormone perception to the regulation of downstream genes. Signal transduction pathways of auxin, abscisic acid, cytokinins, gibberellins and ethylene have been thoroughly investigated. More recently, eme...
Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology
The international journal Ecohydrology & Hydrobiology (E&H) has been created to promote the concept of Ecohydrology, which is defined as the study of the functional interrelations between hydrology and biota at the catchment scale. Ecohydrology extends from the molecular level to catchment-scale processes and is based on three principles: • framework (hydrological principle) - quantification and integration of hydrological and ecological processes at a basin scale; • target (ecological principle) - necessity of enhancing ecosystem absorbing capacity and ecosystem services; and • management tool (ecological engineering) – the use of ecosystem properties for regulation the interplay be...

Those who Helped
Presents two lists of Poles who helped Jews. Pp. 29-84, "They Were Killed for the Help They Gave", gives names and biographical information on 450 Poles who were killed because they helped Jews, based on documentation collected in the archives of the Main Commission for Investigation of Crimes against the Polish Nation. So far, half of the archive documents have been verified. Pt. 2 will contain the rest of the material. The second list (p. 93-144), "The Righteous among the Nations" (up to 31 December 1991), contains the names of Poles awarded that title by Yad Vashem. Explains the discrepancy in the two lists - only fifteen of the Poles who were killed for helping Jews have received recognition from Yad Vashem; two witnesses are required to verify that help was provided, and in most of these cases the potential witnesses were also killed.
