Hazel (Corylus avellana) has been abundant in the vegetation of northern and central Europe since the early Holocene and has provided food and materials for humans ever since. Here we use stable carbon isotope (δ13C) values of hazelnut shells to infer woodland openness based on the premise of the “canopy effect”. It is well established that plants growing in dense, shaded forests have lower carbonHazel (Corylus avellana) has been abundant in the vegetation of northern and central Europe since the early Holocene and has provided food and materials for humans ever since.

Rural areas are regaining attention as key resource holders. This includes the attractiveness of intact and traditional cultural elements and heritage which helps to create new opportunities. However, renewal is needed for rural areas to be competitive beyond tourism.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how Sweden Democrats depicts the woman and analyzes if they use the woman to legitimize their policies. I do this by reconstructing the dominant narrative while striving to analyze how they legitimize the image of her and if they use her to legitimize their policies. The material that I use is the Sweden Democrats 'Principles Program (2011), the Swedish

The general purpose of this thesis is to investigate how HTML5 and related technologies can be utilised to improve the usability and user experience of the web GUI of Axis network cameras. HTML5 is often used as a label for a family of new web technologies, including CSS3 and JavaScript APIs. Of special interest is the new video element which can potentially change the way video is displayed in th

Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to study if and how institutional investors have any impact on shareholder value and operating performance on the Swedish market. The tested explanatory variables are institutional investors grouped in different ways depending on their attributes, firm size, board size and board structure, leverage, firm size, share turnover and stock volatility. Theoretical

Love Addiction (an obsession with romantic relationships) is a phenomenon that has received increasing attention. This study examined whether narcissism is related to Love Addiction. The method that we used was a convenience test N = 200 and a questionnaire that measured Narcissism based on the scales Narcissistic Admiration and Narcissistic Rivalry (NARC) and Love Addiction based on the Love Addi

This study compares analytical and numerical models for groundwater modelling. The focus of comparison is to investigate the change of the analytical results when there is only a partial penetration of the aquifer. Two methods of comparison are used, the first one consisting of calculating a radial distance from a shaft to the point where the drawdown is 0.3 meters with both models. The second metCan pen and paper groundwater models compete with computer programs? Could something as simple as a pen and paper equation on the back of an envelope compete with advanced and expensive computer programs? Surprisingly, the answer could be yes for sandy soils. When modelling how a construction project will affect the groundwater surface, it’s easy to assume that the more advanced the model is, the

The reaction between the SO5– radical and MnII has been proposed to be the most important process for regeneration of MnIII in the MnIII/II-catalysed autoxidation of SIV in acidic aqueous solution. In the present study, the second-order rate constant for this reaction has been determined at pH 3. 0 and 10 mmol dm–3 ionic strength by use of pulse radiolysis.

Popular Abstract in English In the age where there is a great demand of energy, raise in the prices of fossil fuels and increase of environmental concerns because of the greenhouse gas emissions, biogas production through anaerobic digestion, of different organic materials, provides a full or partial solution. There is a large number of cheap substrates as organic waste materials that can be utiliThe anaerobic digestion process results in the production of biogas from a large diversity of organic residues, which can be used as an alternate source of energy generation and for waste management. However, the biogas production technology is not exploited efficiently due to the characteristics of raw materials, poor methane yields, process instability, limited raw materials and lack of knowledg

The cell is the fundamental unit of life and in multicellular animals, all cells are derived from stem cells. To understand how stem cell development may influence phenotypic evolution, this thesis studies a population of vertebrate stem cells known as neural crest cells (NCCs).

This dissertation is set in the context of the modern space age, which is characterised by an overall increase in space activities on a global scale and a relative increase in private and commercial space activities. Space has become a business case.This study analyses the principle of international responsibility for activities in outer space as mainly codified in Article VI of the Outer Space Tr

Energy poverty has been kept at bay in Sweden for the past decades owing to several beneficial circumstances. However, geopolitical pressure and an accelerating energy transition are changing the circumstances and exposing vulnerabilities to energy poverty in Sweden particularly connected to electricity price peaks. The circumstantial nature of the exposed risks for energy poverty motivates a conc

The aim of this thesis is to study how social remittance have impacted gender roles in household structures in Kosovo. By studying the ideas, norms, practices and social capitals sent from the migrant families to the residing families in the country of origin, I will examine if this has led to a change in Kosovar household structure. By conducting a field study, both surveys and interviews were c
