Alexander Hillebrandt
Alexander Hillebrandt s. 21.12.1716 Uppsalassa aloitti sotilasuransa 15-vuotiaana Ruotsin armeijassa. Hänen isänsä Johann Michael Hillebrandt liittyi KaarleXII armeijaan karoliinina ja yleni lopulta sodissa kapteeniksi. Johann taisteli mm. Mälkiällä, Napuella ja selvisi elossa hyiseltä kuolemanmarssilta eli Norjan sotaretkeltä 1718, jossa Kaarle XII sai surmansa. Monien sotien rasittamana Johann kuoli vuonna 1720 Ruotsissa. Hattujen sodassa venäläisiä vastaan Alexander Hillebrandt ylennettiin varusmestariksi 1941 ja samana vuonna vielä majoittajaksi. Sodan jatkuessa Alexander ylennettiin lippumieheksi v. 1742. Silloin hänet siirrettiin Porin rykmentin Ruoveden komppaniaan ja hä...
Osmoprotectant-Mediated Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants
In nature, plants are constantly challenged by various abiotic and biotic stresses that can restrict their growth, development and yields. In the course of their evolution, plants have evolved a variety of sophisticated and efficient mechanisms to sense, respond to, and adapt to changes in the surrounding environment. A common defensive mechanism activated by plants in response to abiotic stress is the production and accumulation of compatible solutes (also called osmolytes). This include amino acids (mainly proline), amines (such as glycinebetaine and polyamines), and sugars (such as trehalose and sugar alcohols), all of which are readily soluble in water and non-toxic at high concentration...

Climate Change
This book provides an interdisciplinary view of how to prepare the ecological and socio-economic systems to the reality of climate change. Scientifically sound tools are needed to predict its effects on regional, rather than global, scales, as it is the level at which socio-economic plans are designed and natural ecosystem reacts. The first section of this book describes a series of methods and models to downscale the global predictions of climate change, estimate its effects on biophysical systems and monitor the changes as they occur. To reduce the magnitude of these changes, new ways of economic activity must be implemented. The second section of this book explores different options to reduce greenhouse emissions from activities such as forestry, industry and urban development. However, it is becoming increasingly clear that climate change can be minimized, but not avoided, and therefore the socio-economic systems around the world will have to adapt to the new conditions to reduce the adverse impacts to the minimum. The last section of this book explores some options for adaptation.
Reel Women
In the last several decades, the number of films featuring female protagonists has increased significantly. Many of these films reflect the vast cultural and sociological changes that have taken place since the early 1960s, highlighting not only a wide spectrum of female characters depicted onscreen, but the creative work of women behind the camera as well. In Reel Women: An International Directory of Contemporary Feature Films about Women, media librarian Jane Sloan has assembled an impressive list of more than 2400 films—from nearly 100 countries—that feature female protagonists. Each entry includes a brief description of the film and cites key artistic personnel, particularly female d...
