The Ulvo Gabbro Complex (UGC) belongs to the 1.27-1.25 Ga Central Scandinavian Dolerite Group (CSDG), which manifests a major event of intra-cratonic mafic magmatism possibly related to break-up between Laurentia and Baltica. Lopolithic, layered intrusions of the UGC outcrop in east central Sweden and west central Finland. Fresh baddeleyite grains in a pegmatoidal gabbro were dated by the TIMS U-P
A cDNA coding for cystatin D, a human member of the cystatin protein family, has been cloned after specific amplification of reverse- transcribed parotid gland RNA. After replacing the segment encoding the putative 20-residue signal peptide with one encoding the Escherichia coli OmpA leader sequence, the cDNA was expressed in E. coli. The isolated recombinant protein exhibited Ki values of 1.2 nM
This paper examines the complementarity between the market for electric vehicles and fast charging on the Swedish market from the introduction of these technologies on the market until the third quarter 2015. Three ecosystems are identified based on the standards Chademo, CCS and the Tesla proprietary charging technology. The analysis points to the need for studying markets for electric vehicles a
Highly responsive teachers tend to foster behaviors that are low in conflict and high in prosociality, among their students, leading to a positive classroom climate and to a decrease in bullying victimization. However, little is known about the interaction between teacher responsiveness and both student–teacher, and student–student relationship characteristics, in influencing students’ bullying vi
The entire service sector has acknowledged the importance of employee creativity. However, the underlying mechanism due to which employees are engaged in creativity has been relatively unexplored. Moreover, where the banking service sector in advanced countries has realized the potential role of employee creativity for a bank's success, the same was not fully realized in the context of a developin
This article analyses the politics of spatial justice in the knowledge-making practices of planning expertise in postwar Sweden. The paper traces the genealogy of ‘standards’ in modern Swedish planning, arguing that this was a fundamental form of planning knowledge which came to articulate a ‘universalist’ politics of justice. Standards were constructed as a way to measure and make complex calcula
Oceans dominate emissions of dimethyl sulfide (DMS), the major natural sulfur source. DMS is important for the formation of non-sea salt sulfate (nss-SO42−) aerosols and secondary particulate matter over oceans and thus, significantly influence global climate. The mechanism of DMS oxidation has accordingly been investigated in several different model studies in the past. However, these studies had
Abstract: Since the ending of the Vietnam War, the Hmong in Laos have been hiding in the northern mountainous areas, fearing retribution from the People’s Revolutionary Party, whom they opposed. These areas are still currently restricted from outside contact. In 2009, Hmong refugees were repatriated from Thailand despite their unwillingness to return to Laos, fearing safety issues with the Lao Gov
Gentrification is a process of neighborhood change where the low-income group is displaced to leave the space for middle or high income residents or investors, whereas domicide is the killing of homes. The political economy and its basis operate where there is private ownership of major production on land and rent-seeking behavior of the capital and social. This is a very powerful primary influenc
Introduction: There are major limitations in the current methods for screening and diagnosis of prostate cancer. In this project, the implementation of new tests has been researched. The assessed tests in the screening phase are the 4Kscore, Prostate Health Index (PHI), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Prostarix. The assessed tests for use after a negative biopsy are Prostate Cancer gen 3 (PCA
The European Union released an Artificial Intelligence (AI) regulation proposal in April 2021 aimed at laying down harmonised rules for AI circulating the Union market. The purpose of this study is to critically examine how accountability and individual, collective, and social harm was approached and framed by the proposal. Previous research has shown that AI and algorithmic bias and discriminatio
The last decade many African emigrants have tried to enter the European Union and Spain and the Spanish government and the EU have developed different measures to stop this immigration. The aim of this thesis is to discuss and analyze the immigration management measures taken by Spain and the EU to see how well these function, and if they have any consequences for the immigrants. Different theorie
The thesis is inspired by the events that surrounded the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions and it seeks to elaborate the fact that political interference has repercussions on human rights as stated by both national and international law. It looks at fighting corruption under the theme of good governance at another angle.
This study is an attempt to analyse whether the Human Rights based approach is a viable tool towards implementing the right to development consequently attaining the right to food in Malawi. The question to be determined is whether the unfreedom from hunger of vulnerable and marginalized groups can be overcome by implementing development programs relating to the right to food as a component of the
The condemnation of the specialized procedures of the faulty military commission system, particularly ex parte and in camera hearings to determine the closure of confidential information, has resulted in the contention that terror cases may be properly adjudicated in regularly constituted Article III courts. Proponents of prosecution of terror suspects in federal civilian courts assert that the co
Popular science summary: How do bacteria divide? Cell division is an absolute requirement for proliferation of all bacteria and results in the bacterium being split into two by a septum. FtsZ is a protein that plays a key role in bacterial cell division. In this project, one part of the FtsZ protein was investigated with genetic methods to understand how it affects the division process. Previou
My thesis uses Anna Tsing’s metaphorical concept friction to investigate the interaction between the Egyptian national government, the international, national and local development organizations, and a local Bedouin community. My research is based on fieldwork in South Sinai, Egypt from August until December 2010. My thesis tries to explore an alternative understanding of sustainability, inspired
