Eutrophication is one of the most threatening issues to water quality in natural water. It can cause problems of the ecosystem, with for example, lowering the biodiversity of the community. The main reason for eutrophication in natural waters is the leakage of nutrients from nearby crop-fields. Too much of nutrients reaches the water and negatively interferes with the water community. To study the
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (2016) food production has a big impact on the climate, and a big part of the food gets wasted as garbage. About 91% of the food that the stores waste is still eatable (Naturvårdsverket, 2014). The government has set a goal to reduce the food waste with 20% until 2020 in comparison to 2010. In present days there’s a lot of research on how to maintai
The number of devices connected to the Internet grows constantly. This information entity has been labeled the Internet of Things (IoT). One important aspect of this is the industrial applications, sometimes labeled the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Collecting and analyzing the massive amounts of data that industry generates will only become more and more important as technology and the ne
Befinner du dig berusad på en allmän plats i Sverige har polisen rätt att omhänderta dig enligt Lag om omhändertagande av berusade personer (LOB). Kraven för ett sådant omhändertagande är att du är tillräckligt berusad för att vara till fara för dig själv eller för din omgivning samt att omhändertagandet inte väcker stor olägenhet för den enskilde. Lagen är tänkt fungera som en vårdinsats både förIf you are found drunk in a public place in Sweden, the police have the right to dispose of you in accordance with Lag om omhändertagande av berusade personer (LOB).

I februari 2018 meddelades en friande misshandelsdom från Solna tingsrätt som väckte stor uppståndelse. Avgörandet var en så kallad nämndemannadom, alltså en dom där nämndemännen (lekmännen) i rätten bestämt utgången i målet i strid med den lagfarne domarens mening. Utöver omfattande kritik i media väckte domen även på nytt upp diskussionen om nämndemännens vara eller inte vara. Denna uppsats utreIn February 2018, a Swedish district court passed a sentence in an assault case that was heavily criticized by the public. The sentence was decided by lay judges contrary to the opinion of the professional judge in the case. The ruling reignited a debate in Sweden about its legal system with lay judges, who serve as part of the bench and are used instead of a jury in criminal cases in district cou
Skattelättnader för högkvalificerad utländsk arbetskraft är ett aktuellt ämne i dagens samhälle, eftersom konkurrensen om viss kompetens är hård på den internationella arbetsmarknaden. Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera de svenska expertskattereglerna i ljuset av motsvarande danska regler. De frågeställningar som har formulerats för att uppnå syftet är hur expertskattereglerna respektive deIn today’s international labour market, the competition for certain competences and skills is tough. Therefore, tax concessions for highly qualified foreign labour has become an increasingly relevant subject. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the Swedish expert tax law vis-á-vis its Danish equivalent. In order to accomplish this, the thesis seeks to investigate how the tax concessions in Swe
Våld i nära relationer, och då främst mäns våld mot kvinnor, utgör ett erkänt samhällsproblem. En särskilt utsatt grupp är våldsutsatta kvinnor med osäker uppehållsrätt som kommit till Sverige på anknytning till en svensk man. Kvinnorna får tidsbegränsade uppehållstillstånd och om anknytningen bryts föreligger inte längre förutsättningar för uppehållstillståndet, och kvinnan utvisas. Om kvinnan kaDomestic violence, and primarily men's violence against women, is a well-recognized social problem. A particularly vulnerable group is abused women with uncertain right of residence. Their migration status depends on that of their spouse, and they receive only a temporary residence permit. If the relationship is broken, the conditions for the residence permit are no longer present and the woma
Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda bevisprövningen för asylsökande med flyktinggrunden sexuell läggning. Fokus har varit att granska den praktiska tillämpningen och vilka värderingar Migrationsverket och migrationsdomstolarna gör när den enskilda ska bevisa sin sexuella läggning. Jag har därav granskat 12 domar från olika migrationsdomstolar, samt undersökt de bakomliggande besluten från MigrationsverThis essay’s purpose is to investigate the evaluation of proof for asylum seekers that fear persecution because of their sexual orientation. The focus has been to examine the practical application and what assessments the Swedish Migration Agency and migration courts make in order for the individual to prove their sexual orientation. I have therefore examined 12 judgements from different migration
I det svenska straffrättsliga systemet finns en lång tradition av att särbehandla unga lagöverträdare. Den vedertagna ideologiska uppfattning som ligger till grund för särregleringen framhåller att unga har en outvecklad ansvarsförmåga, att de besitter en ökad sanktionskänslighet samt att samhället bör visa tolerans för den unges mognadsprocess. För de yngsta lagöverträdarna måste även hänsyn tas In the Swedish criminal justice system, there is a long tradition of treating young offenders differently than adults. The accepted ideological view that underlies the special regulation emphasizes that young people have an undeveloped capacity for responsibility, that they have a greater sensitivity to punishment and that society should show tolerance for the young person's maturation process
Nämndemän är juridiskt oskolade lekmannadomare som förekommer i både allmänna domstolar och förvaltningsdomstolar, tillsammans med en eller flera lagfarna juristdomare. Förekomsten av lekmannadomare i de svenska domstolarna har en lång och föränderlig historia bakom sig. Till en början fungerade nämndemännen huvudsakligen som bevismedel. Idag utgör de en bestående del av rättsväsendet och dess rätJurymen are legally uneducated laymen judges who participate in legal disputes in both the general courts and the administrative courts, together with one or several legally educated judges. The existence of laymen judges in the Swedish courts have a long and shifting tradition. At first, they were used as evidence during the Middle Ages. Today, the jurymen are permanent members of the court as a
Pollen accumulation rates (PARs) provide a potential proxy for quantitative tree volume (m3 ha-1) reconstruction with reliable absolute pollen productivity estimates (APPEs). We obtained APPEs for pine, spruce and birch at their range limits in northern Finland under two temperature periods (warm and cold) based on long-term pollen trap and tree volume records within a 14-km radius of each trap. A
Synaptic gain control and information storage in neural networks are mediated by alterations in synaptic transmission, such as in long-term potentiation (LTP). Here, we show using both in vitro and in vivo recordings from the rat cerebellum that tetanization protocols for the induction of LTP at parallel fiber (PF)-to-Purkinje cell synapses can also evoke increases in intrinsic excitability. This

The aim of this study was to focus on how individual female employees perceived the pay gap in the Swedish labor market, as well as in their workplace. The purpose was to study how the awareness of pay gaps based on gender inequalities or other circumstances, affects the individual female employees. Moreover, the purpose has also been to capture the employers reflections on their work to detect, c
The electricity demand in Sweden is expected to double between 2022 and 2035 and the majority of the new electricity is expected to come from wind energy. As intermittent energy increases, so does the need for energy storage that can balance the supply and demand for energy. Batteries can offer short-term energy storage and their fast response time enables them to offer ancillary services on shor
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to test how Nordic acquirers perform post M&A deals and to what extent the Method of Payment affects this performance. An additional analysis is also conducted where the above is tested, conditional on the financial constraints of the acquirer. Methodology: To obtain the long-term performance (BHAR) of Nordic acquirers, an event study has been conducted.
Wrist fractures are a prevalent injury in Sweden. While most patients recover within a year, approximately 5000 patients a year experience significant long-term pain and impaired wrist function. Current rehabilitation methods lack the capacity to objectively measure post-fracture wrist function. Proprioception, the awareness of the body in space, is crucial for wrist function but remains challengi
To keep a high standard of the golf courses intensive maintenance work might be required. To avoid weeds, fungi and diseases on the courses almost half of all golf clubs in Sweden use chemical pesticides. Because of the toxic nature of the the substances it may cause negative impacts on the environment which makes it important to reduce or stop entirely with the use of chemical pesticides. This st
