Abstract:
El coneixement profund de la especiació dels metalls pesants és clau per a determinar la seva biodisponibilitat. Per això cal complementar la informació sobre les concentracions amb la informació sobre els fluxos d’internalització. Diverses tècniques analítiques han estat desenvolupades amb aquesta fi, i algunes d’elles aprofiten les propietats de les resines d’intercanvi iònic o quelants. D’una banda, aquesta tesi investiga la velocitat d’acumulació d’ions metàl·lics a la resina Chelex 100, sigui experimentalment o a través d’un model teòric.

As transistor sizes scale down and levels of integration increase, leakage power has become a critical problem in modern low-power microprocessors. This is especially true for ultra-low-voltage (ULV) circuits, where high levels of leakage force designers to chose relatively high threshold voltages, which limits performance. In this thesis, an industry-standard technique known as power-gating is explored, whereby transistors are used to disconnect the power from idle portions of a chip.

In recent years, neuromorphic architectures have been an increasingly effective tool used to solve big data problems. Hardware neural networks have not been able to fully exploit the power efficient properties of the neural paradigm, however, due to limitations in standard CMOS. One of the largest challenges is the quadratic scaling of the synapses in a neural network. There has been some work in using post CMOS technology as synapses to overcome this limitation, but systems to date have not been scalable due to the design of their neurons.

Abstract:
With the paradigm shift in personal communications favouring wireless over wired, the demand for efficient, low-cost, and compact antennas is booming. The proliferation of mobile electronic devices (laptops and tablets, fitness trackers, ‘smart’ phones and watches), together with the desire for longer battery life, poses a unique challenge to antenna designers; there is an unavoidable trade-off between miniaturization and performance (in terms of range and efficiency). The size of an antenna is inherently linked to the wavelengths(s) of the electromagnetic waves that it must transmit and/or re

Abstract:
Water is essential for humankind not only for its direct consumption but also for its multiple applications in industry or agriculture, among others. The presence of undesirable substances or pollutants directly affects its quality. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to develop analytical methodologies which permit the detection and/or quantification of different species or compounds that can restrict their usage. The research presented in this thesis is focused on the design, preparation and characterization of new analytical methodologies based on functionalized membranes for the pre

Abstract:
Concern about feeding an ever increasing population has long been one of humankind’s most pressing problems. This has been addressed throughout history by introducing into farming systems changes allowing them to produce more per unit of land area. However, these changes have also been linked to negative effects on the socio economic and environmental sphere, that have created the need for an integral understanding of this phenomenon. This thesis describes the application of learning machine methods to induct a relationship between the spectral response of farms’ land cover and their intensifi

Abstract:
Exotic annual weeds have transformed western North America, particularly in sagebrush-steppe systems. Restoration of these invaded sites has been met with low levels of success. Pre-emergent herbicide provides a means to control annual weeds, but typically, this treatment does not allow for the concurrent seeding of desired species. Seeding within a deep, U-shaped furrow following herbicide application may be a method to reduce pre-emergent herbicide effects by transferring the herbicide away from the seed at the time of planting. We tested this potential planting technique by spraying plots w

Abstract:
Shallow lake wetlands, for which aquatic plants (macrophytes) and water clarity are the key indicators of ecological status, provide valuable services to wildlife and humanity. Conservation of these ecosystems requires development of rapid and large scale monitoring strategies, where remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can be advantageous. In this study, high spatial resolution Quickbird and IKONOS and medium spatial resolution Landsat and Aster images were used for monitoring the aquatic plants and water clarity in Lakes Mogan and Eymir.

Abstract:
Lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) were extirpated from Lake Champlain around 1900 and from the lower four Great Lakes by 1960. Their ecological, commercial and recreational importance has prompted extensive restoration efforts. Despite widespread evidence of natural reproduction by stocked lake trout, there is minimal evidence of survival of wild progeny beyond age-0. Various abiotic and biotic impediments may be preventing self-sustaining lake trout populations from becoming established. Unsuccessful restoration in shallow areas has recently prompted a shift to restoration efforts to o
