The planet is presently undergoing dramatic changes caused by human activities. We are living in the era of the Anthropocene, where our activities directly affect all living organisms on Earth. Insects constitute a major part of the world’s biodiversity and currently, we see dwindling insect biomass but also outbreaks of certain populations. Most insects rely on chemical communication to locate fo
The northern hemisphere has experienced regional cooling, especially during the global warming hiatus (1998-2012) due to ocean energy redistribution. However, the lack of studies about the natural cooling effects hampers our understanding of vegetation responses to climate change. Using 15,125 ground phenological time series at 3,620 sites since the 1950s and 31-year satellite greenness observatio
Large-scale photovoltaic solar farms envisioned over the Sahara desert can meet the world's energy demand while increasing regional rainfall and vegetation cover. However, adverse remote effects resulting from atmospheric teleconnections could offset such regional benefits. We use state-of-the-art Earth-system model simulations to evaluate the global impacts of Sahara solar farms. Our results indi
Background and aim: Home rehabilitation is an increasing service in many countries due to the aging population. The body of knowledge in home rehabilitation is growing but results are inconsistent, and there is still lack of knowledge from user perspectives to guide practice and home rehabilitation programs. The purpose of this study was to explore valuable aspects of home rehabilitation experienc
Feedbacks mechanisms are essential components of our climate system, as they either increase or decrease changes in climate-related quantities in the presence of external forcings. In this work, we provide the first quantitative estimate regarding the terrestrial climate feedback loop connecting the increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration, changes in gross primary production (GPP) asso
Municipal solid waste is one of the major environmental problems in Jordan. The World Bank visibility study (2004) showed that the rate of production of solid waste in Jordan was estimated annually of about 1.46 million ton, and is expected to reach 2.5 million ton by the year 2015 with a generation of 0.9/kg/capita/day. This solid waste volume is still increasing at high rates due to the rapid in
Range shifts can rapidly create new areas of geographic overlap between formerly allopatric taxa and evidence is accumulating that this can affect species persistence. We review the emerging literature on the short- and long-term consequences of these geographic range shifts. Specifically, we focus on the evolutionary consequences of novel species interactions in newly created sympatric areas by d

Bioassay experiments were performed two times (with 2 years in between) in order to investigate if nitrogen (N, ammonium), phosphorus (P, phosphate) and carbon (C, glucose) additions would stimulate the growth of bacteria and phytoplankton differently in three different tropical aquatic environments. The water and their indigenous microbial communities were taken from a freshwater coastal lake (Ca
Arlanda flygplats är en av Nordens största flygplatser, vilket gör att personbrandskyddet är väldigt viktigt. Ett platsbesök genomfördes på Terminal 4 på Arlanda vid projektets början i syfte att göra en brandteknisk riskvärdering av byggnaden. Under platsbesöket samlades information in om potentiella riskkällor och möjligheterna att utrymma undersöktes. Detta resulterade i flera potentiella brandArlanda is one of northern Europe’s largest airports servicing 18,4 million travelers in 2022. Ensuring the safety of everyone moving through or working within the building requires a large-scale safety and security infrastructure. This report narrows its focus to one of the older parts of Arlanda, terminal 4. The aim of this project is to evaluate the fire protection focusing on the safety of the

Offentlig upphandling utgör en betydande del av Sveriges statsbudget, och det finns en ambition från nationellt håll att öka det strategiska inköpsarbetet rörande offentlig upphandling. Tidigare akademiska studier inom inköp har dock främst fokuserat på privat sektor, och forskning som syftar till att förklara hur och varför olika upphandlande myndigheter arbetar mer eller mindre strategiskt med iA significant portion of the Swedish government budget consists of public procurement, and there is a national ambition to increase the strategic aspect of public procurement. Previous research has mainly focused on the private sector, and there is a lack of research that aims to explain how and why different contracting authorities work more or less strategically with procurement. This study aims
Narcissister förknippas bland annat med ”narcissistisk misshandel”, en bild som sprids av YouTube-kanaler som primärt publicerar videos berörande detta ämne. En netnografisktematisk analys utfördes på kommentarsfältet tillhörande en sådan video, med rubriken ”Why do you feel it so important to know they are definitely a narcissist?”. Detta i mål om att studeras hur ”görandet” av stigma, i form av
Inte bara kor läcker metan... ... växter kan också släppa ut metan under vissa förhållanden. Ibland tar de även upp metan. Mitt arbete hade som mål att studera metanutbytet mellan trädstammar och atmosfären i en nordisk skog. Metan bidrar näst efter koldioxid mest till nuvarande ökning av växthuseffekten: Vi vet att metaninnehållet i atmosfären ökar men är osäkra på var metan kommer ifrån. TradiThe role of vegetation in the global CH4 budget and the processes involved in CH4 emission by plants have been subject to debate in the past couple of years. This study contributes to this field of research by studying CH4 fluxes between tree stems and the atmosphere on pinus sylvestris and picea abies in a boreal forest using chamber measurements. Additionally to CH4 fluxes, CO2 and H2O fluxes, s
Enligt principen jura novit curia behöver inte svenska rättsregler åberopas eller bevisföras av part i svensk domstol. Istället ankommer det på domstolen att ex officio söka reda på och tillämpa de rättsregel som domstolen finner tillämpliga på tvisten (35 kap. 2 § st. 2 rättegångsbalken). Utöver denna utredningsskyldighet innebär principen jura novit curia även ett rättstillämpningsmonopol som tiAccording to the principle iura novit curia, parties in a Swedish court do not have a burden of pleading or proof for the content of Swedish law, nor is the court bound by the parties’ instructions or opinions concerning the application of the law. The court must consider all relevant legal rules and ex officio apply the rule of law deemed applicable to the dispute. This last part does not, howeve
Våld mot kvinnor är ett av de mest allvarliga brotten mot internationella mänskliga rättigheter i världen. Det bekräftar underordningen av kvinnor, den patriarkatiska normgivningen och den otillräckliga implementationen av mänskliga rättigheter. Det här arbetet utreder vad våld i hemmet består av i Indien och i Sverige. I Indien är detta fokuserat på dowry-våld och i Sverige är ”vanligt” våld i heViolence against women is one of the most serious international human rights breaches in the world. It reaffirms the subordination of women, the patriarchal standard setting and insufficient implementation of human rights. This thesis investigates what domestic violence consists of in India and in Sweden. In India this is focused on dowry violence and in Sweden “ordinary” domestic violence and hon
