Among other things, tree species with the ability to cope with more extreme climate conditions have to be identified. However, while environmental factors may severely limit tree growth or even cause tree death, assessing a tree species' potential for surviving future aggravated environmental conditions is rather demanding. The aim of this study was to find a tree-ring-based method suitable for identifying very drought-tolerant species, particularly potential substitute species for Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Valais. In this inner-Alpine valley, Scots pine used to be the dominating species for dry forests, but today it suffers from high drought-induced mortality. We investigate the growth response of two native tree species, Scots pine and European larch (Larix decidua Mill.), and two non-native species, black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold) and Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii Mirb. var. menziesii), to drought. This involved analysing how the radial increment of these species responded to increasing water shortage (abandonment of irrigation) and to increasingly frequent drought years. Black pine and Douglas fir are able to cope with drought better than Scots pine and larch, as they show relatively high radial growth even after irrigation has been stopped and a plastic growth response to drought years. European larch does not seem to be able to cope with these dry conditions as it lacks the ability to recover from drought years. The analysis of trees' short-term response to extreme climate events seems to be the most promising and suitable method for detecting how tolerant a tree species is towards drought. However, combining all the methods used in this study provides a complete picture of how water shortage could limit species.}, language = {en} } @article{StreunChavanLameetal.2006, author = {Streun, M. and Chavan, U. and Lame, H. and Parl, C. and M{\"u}ller-Veggian, Mattea and Ziemons, Karl}, title = {Treating the Gain Non-Uniformity of Multi Channel PMTs by Channel-Specific Trigger Levels}, series = {2006 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record, Vol. 2.}, journal = {2006 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record, Vol. 2.}, address = {San Diego, CA}, issn = {1082-3654}, pages = {1301 -- 1304}, year = {2006}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BayerHeschelerArtmannetal.2019, author = {Bayer, Robin and Hescheler, J{\"u}rgen and Artmann, Gerhard and Temiz Artmann, Ayseg{\"u}l}, title = {Treating arterial hypertension in a cell culture well}, series = {3rd YRA MedTech Symposium 2019 : May 24 / 2019 / FH AachenW}, booktitle = {3rd YRA MedTech Symposium 2019 : May 24 / 2019 / FH AachenW}, editor = {Staat, Manfred and Erni, Daniel}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}t Duisburg-Essen}, address = {Duisburg}, organization = {MedTech Symposium}, isbn = {978-3-940402-22-6}, doi = {10.17185/duepublico/48750}, pages = {5 -- 6}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Hypertension describes the pathological increase of blood pressure, which is most commonly associated with the increase of vascular wall stiffness [1]. Referring to the "Deutsche Bluthochdruck Liga" this pathology shows a growing trend in our aging society. In order to find novel pharmacological and probably personalized treatments, we want to present a functional approach to study biomechanical properties of a human aortic vascular model. In this method review we will give an overview of recent studies which were carried out with the CellDrum technology [2] and underline the added value to already existing standard procedures known from the field of physiology. Herein described CellDrum technology is a system to measure functional mechanical properties of cell monolayers and thin tissue constructs in-vitro. Additionally, the CellDrum enables to elucidate the mechanical response of cells to pharmacological drugs, toxins and vasoactive agents. Due to its highly flexible polymer support, cells can also be mechanically stimulated by steady and cyclic biaxial stretching.}, language = {en} } @article{MennickenPeterKaulenetal.2020, author = {Mennicken, Max and Peter, Sophia K. and Kaulen, Corinna and Simon, Ulrich and Karth{\"a}user, Silvia}, title = {Transport through Redox-Active Ru-Terpyridine Complexes Integrated in Single Nanoparticle Devices}, series = {The Journal of Physical Chemistry C}, volume = {124}, journal = {The Journal of Physical Chemistry C}, number = {8}, publisher = {ACS Publications}, address = {Washington, DC}, issn = {1932-7455}, doi = {10.1021/acs.jpcc.9b11716}, pages = {4881 -- 4889}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Transition metal complexes are electrofunctional molecules due to their high conductivity and their intrinsic switching ability involving a metal-to-ligand charge transfer. Here, a method is presented to contact reliably a few to single redox-active Ru-terpyridine complexes in a CMOS compatible nanodevice and preserve their electrical functionality. Using hybrid materials from 14 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNP) and bis-{4′-[4-(mercaptophenyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine]}-ruthenium(II) complexes a device size of 30² nm² inclusive nanoelectrodes is achieved. Moreover, this method bears the opportunity for further downscaling. The Ru-complex AuNP devices show symmetric and asymmetric current versus voltage curves with a hysteretic characteristic in two well separated conductance ranges. By theoretical approximations based on the single-channel Landauer model, the charge transport through the formed double-barrier tunnel junction is thoroughly analyzed and its sensibility to the molecule/metal contact is revealed. It can be verified that tunneling transport through the HOMO is the main transport mechanism while decoherent hopping transport is present to a minor extent.}, language = {en} } @article{FoersterGriebelIndlekoferetal.1998, author = {F{\"o}rster, Arnold and Griebel, M. and Indlekofer, M. and L{\"u}th, H.}, title = {Transport through a buried double barrier single electron transistor at low temperatures}, series = {Physica E: Low-dimensional Systems and Nanostructures. 2 (1998), H. 1-4}, journal = {Physica E: Low-dimensional Systems and Nanostructures. 2 (1998), H. 1-4}, isbn = {1386-9477}, pages = {502 -- 506}, year = {1998}, language = {en} } @article{FoersterGriebelIndlekoferetal.1998, author = {F{\"o}rster, Arnold and Griebel, M. and Indlekofer, K.
