The ash cloud of the Eyjafjallajokull (also referred to as: Eyjafjalla (e.g. Schumann et al., 2011), Eyjafjoll or Eyjafjoll (e.g. Ansmann et al., 2010)) volcano on Iceland caused closure of large parts of European airspace in April and May 2010. For the validation and improvement of the European volcanic ash forecast models several research flights were performed. Also the CARIBIC (Civil Aircraft
Background: Epidemiological studies suggest that haem iron, which is found predominantly in red meat and increases endogenous formation of carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds, may be positively associated with lung cancer. The objective was to examine the relationship between haem iron intake and lung cancer risk using detailed smoking history data and serum cotinine to control for potential confound
The following paper is a compilation of the ongoing Swedish PhD-project “Multifunctional streets in the city - towards a more attractive city for all users and stakeholders”. In focus are arterial streets, i.e. highly multifunctional traffic environments characterized of conflicting functions, with an extensive mix of traffic modes, activities and interests. The aim of the project is to clarify an

This paper takes the treatment of antonymy in Collins COBUILD Advanced Learner's English Dictionary (2003) as the point of departure for a discussion about the principles of antonym inclusion in dictionaries and corpus methodologies in lexicology. CCALED includes canonical antonyms such as good/ bad and dead/alive, as well as more contextually restricted pairings such as hot/ mild and flat/fizzy.
Abstract in UndeterminedThe Nordic countries have been slow EU integrators. Some of them are not even members of the Union. Little does it matter. Competition law has been at the forefront of the vivid Nordic academic debate for years. A result: The establishment of a solid network among researchers at the Nordic universities.In 2012 the Network came together in Lund, Sweden to address how trade a
There is a need for large trials that test the clinical effectiveness of interventions in the field of perioperative medicine. Clinical outcome measures used in such trials must be robust, clearly defined and patient-relevant. Our objective was to develop standards for the use of clinical outcome measures to strengthen the methodological quality of perioperative medicine research. A literature sea
Based on data searches and life-table analyses, we determined the long-term (remaining lifetime) and short-term (10- and 5-year) absolute risks of hip fracture after sustaining a Colles' or spine fracture and searched for potential gender-related differences. In aging men, Colles' fractures carry a higher absolute risk for hip fracture than spinal fractures in contrast to women. These findings sup
The energy justice framework serves as an important decision-making tool in order to understand how different principles of justice can inform energy systems and policies. The realization of the urgency of providing modern energy technology and services particularly to rural areas has prompted both the Nepalese government and development institutions to focus on community-run renewable energy faci
The purpose of the study is to examine how the European Green Deal shapes and constrains what is considered possible and desirable in order to tackle the climate crisis. More specifically, the objective is to expose its underlying assumptions, interrogate what is taken for granted and left unproblematic. In order to examine how established knowledge shapes and constrains political action the study
This paper undertakes an examination of the concept of international law of jurisdiction to assess the extent to which the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) aligns with the principle of territoriality. Since international jurisdiction is based on customary principles, the paper explores the traditional concept of international jurisdiction. It highlights the growing recognit
This thesis investigates how the design of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) systems influences two different packaging-waste outcomes across 12 EU member countries from 1997 to 2022. Addressing a gap in the empirical literature, the study develops a novel EPR Strength Index a two-dimensional measure that captures institutional (legal clarity, enforcement, transparency and reporting) and econ
The fitting attitude analysis of value states that for objects to have value is for them to be the fitting targets of attitudes. Good objects are the fitting targets of positive attitudes, while bad objects are the fitting targets of negative attitudes. The following paper presents an argument to the effect that value and the fittingness of attitudes differ in terms of their explanations. Whereas
Popular Abstract in Swedish Empiriska studier som fokuserar på subjektivt upplevd hälsa hos patienter i psykiatrin är sällsynta och merparten av de frågeformulär som finns är baserade på en medicinsk grund där objektivt observerbara sjukdomsindikatorer betonas. I studie I och II analyseras och beskrivs uppfattningar av begreppet hälsa hos patienter och sjuksköterskor i psykiatrisk vård med hjälp aEmpirical studies focusing on the subjective experience of health among patients in contact with the mental health services are rare and most questionnaires are based on a medical model that emphasizes objectively observed disease-oriented health indicators. In studies I and II perceptions of the concept of health among patients and nurses in mental health services were explored and described usin
The dissertation draws attention to the fact that in the world today 80% of the resources that are used are limited - non renewable energy carriers - and because of the long time between planning and doing (carrying out) within the energy sector, it is worthwhile from the long-term perspective to steer early on towards more sustain-able solutions, such as renewable energy carriers. The State and t
