Seaweed cultivation is a large industry worldwide, but production in Europe is small compared to production in Asian countries. In the EU, the motivations for seaweed farming may be seen from two perspectives; one being economic growth through biomass production and the other being the provisioning of ecosystem services such as mitigating eutrophication. In this paper, we assess the economic poten
While Gender studies has sometimes been placed in opposition to biomedicine and medical practices in public debate, there is increasing scholarly recognition of the relevance of social factors and relationships for biological and medical phenomena and for the quality and equity of healthcare practices (Chin et al., 2016; Meloni, Cromby, Fitzgerald, & Lloyd, 2018; SKL, 2014). In Sweden and int

Reduction of trans-[Pt(CN)4 X2]2- (X = Cl or Br) as model compounds for antitumour-active platinum(IV) pro-drugs, to [Pt(CN)4]2- by L-methionine, MeSR, has been studied at 25 °C in the range 0 < pH < 12 (X = Cl) and 0 < pH < 6 (X = Br) by use of stopped-flow spectrophotometry. The stoichiometry is [Pt IV] : [MeSR] ≈ 1 : 1; the reaction products are methionine S-oxide and [Pt(CN)4]2- as identified
Background The adverse health effects associated with long commutes provides additional evidence of the commuting paradox. Better job opportunities and higher incomes in larger local labour markets are offset by the negative consequences of longer commutes including lower levels of life satisfaction. Long commutes extend the work day and time spent commuting is time lost for health beneficial actiThe adverse health effects associated with long commutes provides additional evidence of the commuting paradox.

Lösningen av de pågående klimat- och energikriserna kräver en radikal omvandling av energisystemet, där hållbarhet, inga koldioxidutsläpp och energieffektivitet bör spela en avgörande roll.Denna revolution bör sträcka sig till alla delar av energisystemet, inklusive sektorn för uppvärmning och kylning av byggnader, som står för en tredjedel av Europas slutliga energibehov och på den europeiska konThe solution of the undergoing climate and energy crises requires a radical transformation of the energy system, in which sustainability, no carbon emissions and energy efficiency ought to play a paramount role. This revolution should extend to all areas of the energy system, including the space heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a third of the European final energy demand and, in the
Predictor screening rules, which discard predictors before fitting a model, have had considerable impact on the speed with which sparse regression problems, such as the lasso, can be solved. In this paper we present a new screening rule for solving the lasso path: the Hessian Screening Rule. The rule uses second-order information from the model to provide both effective screening, particularly in
First, we present a new algorithm for the single-source shortest paths problem (SSSP) in edge-weighted directed graphs, with n vertices, m edges, and both positive and negative real edge weights. Given a positive integer parameter t, in O(tm) time the algorithm finds for each vertex v a path distance from the source to v not exceeding that yielded by the shortest path from the source to v among th
Microplastic particles are of increasing environmental concern around the globe and recent studies have shown that these particles are present in the entire water column, thus affecting a range of zooplankton including copepods that have a vital role in the marine food web. This study investigated whether microplastic beads have an effect in the filtration rate in the copepod Acartia tonsa, which
Indonesia has a history of hundreds of years revolving around the racism against its 3% Chinese ethnic minority—who are also known as Tionghoa. This circumstance engenders the racial-social order that has been shaping the attitudes and behaviours of the Chinese, both individually and collectively, in social, cultural, and political realms. The Chinese have become self-controlled and self-regulated
This essay seeks to address how power asymmetries or structural biases may affect how European Union (EU) law considers market actors and the freedom to conduct a business, combining EU legal methodology with feminist and queer legal and political theory. The research finds that the EU is a purposive order, whose primary objectives inform the EU legal order and the development of EU law. EU functi
This study investigates whether event construal of placement events varies between Mandarin Chinese and German speakers by comparing how native speakers of the respective languages speak and gesture about placement events. It has been argued that there are universal constraints on how languages encode placement events. However, languages arguably differ in their semantic divisions of placement eve
Det finns många olika diskussioner idag kring unga i relation till arbetsliv och arbetsmarknad. Sedan industriella revolutionen har lönearbete blivit en allt viktigare del av våra liv och vårt samhälle. Med anledning av detta vill jag undersöka vilka attityder unga har till arbete i Sverige idag. Ronald Inglehart presenterar en teori om att människors värderingar har förändrats till så kallade pos
I det här examensarbetet har en ny förpackningslösning utvecklats och konstruerats för snäckfräsar till Volvo Group Truck Operation Powertrains transmissionsfabrik i Köping. Det fanns ett behov av en ny förpackningslösning då den existerande förpackningen har flertalet problem och brister och börjar bli föråldrad. Produktutvecklingen började med att bekanta sig med den nuvarande förpackningen ochIn this thesis, a new packaging solution has been developed and designed for gear hobs to Volvo Group Truck Operation Powertrain´s transmission plant in Köping. There was a need for a new packaging solution since the existing packaging have a number of problems and deficiencies and begins to be obsolete. The product development began by familiarizing with the current packaging and how it was hand
