Atmospheric particles play a significant role in radiative forcing through light scattering and new methods are called for to better characterize their impact. Typical Lidar systems emit single wavelength light, not utilizing full spectral information from scattering measurements. This thesis aims to use a hyperspectral lidar system to measure the spectral dependence of scattering and absorption
Zinc-Manganese dioxide (MnO₂) batteries have garnered significant interest due to their high energy density, low cost and low toxicity. Crystalline MnO₂ has shown structural transformations during the intercalation and deintercalation of Zn, which influences the performance of the battery. Recent studies have demonstrated that amorphous MnO₂ shows better Zn storage capacity due to an increase in s
Achieving meaningful curriculum internationalization requires moving beyond siloed, ad-hoc efforts, such as relying solely on the International Office, especially when it comes to addressing the key issue of engaging faculty in internationalization efforts. Instead, faculty involvement in curriculum internationalization is best garnered through planning that leverages institutional synergy.To guid

International collaboration is clearly a key priority in higher education andresearch (HER) policy and practice. The competition for students and excellentresearch and teaching staff is now a global one and this is reflected inthe increasing salience of phenomena such as the Shanghai and Times HigherEducation Rankings for monitoring the performance of HER institutions. Thischapter takes its point
Exercise during cancer treatment improves cancer-related fatigue (CRF), but the importance of exercise intensity for CRF is unclear. We compared the effects of high- vs low-to-moderate-intensity exercise with or without additional behavior change support (BCS) on CRF in patients undergoing (neo-)adjuvant cancer treatment. This was a multicenter, 2x2 factorial design randomized controlled trial (Cl
Bacterial adhesion to the host is the most decisive step in infections. Trimeric autotransporter adhesins (TAA) are important pathogenicity factors of Gram-negative bacteria. The prototypic TAA Bartonella adhesin A (BadA) from human-pathogenic Bartonella henselae mediates bacterial adherence to endothelial cells (ECs) and extracellular matrix proteins. Here, we determined the interaction between B
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterised by defective insulin exocytosis from the pancreatic β cells, accompanied by insulin resistance. Reduced β cells mass is often seen in T2D individuals, caused by enhanced β cells apoptosis. It is now understood that several components drive β cells dysfunction and apoptosis. These are glucose-and lipo-toxicity, ER stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines, dysfunct
Radon (222Rn) gas is the largest source of public exposure to naturally occurring radioactivity and the identification of radon priority areas is required by the Council Directive 2013/59/Euratom. Radon is also used as a tracer to improve atmospheric transport models and to indirectly estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes using the Radon Tracer Method (RTM). This method is based on the correlation
This paper addresses Jem Bendell’s concept of “deep adaptation” in the Anthropocene through the lens of everyday urban practices in contemporary Northern Europe. It proposes that this “deep adaptation” should be defined less in relation to a socio-ecological “collapse” and more through everyday occurrences in present- day urban environments.Entering into a critical conversation with Bendell’s conc
In this article, we construct and analyse an explicit numerical splitting method for a class of semi-linear stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with additive noise, where the drift is allowed to grow polynomially and satisfies a global one-sided Lipschitz condition. The method is proved to be mean-square convergent of order 1 and to preserve important structural properties of the SDE. First,
The most important moment in product development is when demands and specifications are decided for the product that is being planned. The specification defines the goal for the product development process. It is a very important steering opportunity for the continuing work and for environmentally driven demands that are to be addressed in the product development phase. The designers are said to h
A search for lepton-flavor-violating Z→eτ and Z→μτ decays with pp collision data recorded by the ATLAS detector at the LHC is presented. This analysis uses 139 fb-1 of Run 2 pp collisions at s=13 TeV and is combined with the results of a similar ATLAS search in the final state in which the τ lepton decays hadronically, using the same data set as well as Run 1 data. The addition of leptonically dec
Most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa have made great strides towards more accessible and higher quality schooling and medical systems in recent years. Despite this, education and health care in Africa lag behind other developing regions and large inequalities in educational levels and health care access remain across countries, subnational regions, and gender. Cameroon, in west-central Africa, wit
Introducing seaweed to new food markets entails new challenges concerning efficient preservation. Hence, this study explores high-pressure processing (HPP) as an alternative technique to conventional methods by evaluating its effects on the composition, quality, and microbial safety of the Swedish grown macroalgae Saccharina latissima. The results from the physicochemical analysis showed that afte
On 5 January 2023, the Swedish Government announced the decision to introduce new restrictions to enter Sweden: due to the spread of Covid-19 in China, travellers from this direction need to show negative Covid-test results. In cases when there is no possibility of showing the results, the travellers are not allowed to enter Sweden. Governmental Ordinance (2023:2) was temporary and lasted from 7 J
Purpose: Adolescents with congenital heart disease transition from childhood to adulthood and transfer from pediatric-oriented to adult-oriented care. High-level empirical evidence on the effectiveness of transitional care is scarce. This study investigated the empowering effect (primary outcome) of a structured person-centered transition program for adolescents with congenital heart disease and s
