Wild pollinators play an essential role in cultivated and wild ecosystems but in Sweden, as globally, many of these species are threatened to extinction. One reason is the lack of flowering habitats. The aim of this study is to analyze and evaluate the citizen science project Operation: Rädda bina, which aims to encourage citizens to incorporate elements beneficial to wild pollinators (meadows, fl
This study employs the ESG-Sharpe Ratio frontiers framework and the ESG-adjusted CAPM model, introduced by Pedersen et al. (2020), to identify the costs and benefits of responsible investing and investigate the relationship between the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues and portfolio performance in different countries across Europe. In this paper, we explain the cross-country diffe
The aim of this essay is to investigate how common so called Baptismal Trees are in the Church of Sweden, and analyse their origin and function, as well as inquire what role the Baptismal Tree has within the Swedish Church. Usually, a Baptismal Tree is a tree, but it can also be a painting, a fishnet, or a display case visible to the congregation in a church room. Symbolic christening gifts, given
Physical activity is essential for health and well-being, as recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO), which defines it as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure. Recommended levels of physical activity vary depending on age, with children needing at least 60 minutes per day and adults requiring 150–300 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per
Wetlands are one of the most precious ecosystems in the world. They are important be-cause of their high biological diversity and unique properties, such as water purification and carbon sequestration. Yet, wetlands are also one of the most endangered ecosystems due to land draining. In Sweden, wetlands have been drained för centuries due to the lack of arable land. The draining can have been acco
Avtal kan sorteras genom att delas in i avtalstyper. Frågan om ett specifikt avtal hör till en viss avtalstyp beror på om avtalets egenskaper stämmer överens med de medlemskapskriterier som ställs upp för avtalstypen. Två avtalstyper som åtminstone i vissa delar är svåra att avgränsa från varandra är borgensavtal och försäkringsavtal. I allt högre grad ställer försäkringsbolag ut säkerhetsrätter, Contracts can be sorted into different contract types. The question whether a specific contract belongs to a certain contract type depends on if the contract matches the essential characteristics of the contract type. Two contract types that, at least in some parts, are difficult to distinguish from one another are insurance and guarantees. Insurance companies has increasingly issued different typ
Uppsatsen behandlar beviskravet i brottmål och alternativa hypoteser i förhållande till åklagarens gärningspåstående. Beviskravet innebär att rättens övertygelse om den tilltalades skuld ska vara ställd bortom rimligt tvivel. Eftersom att lagreglering saknas om beviskravet har detta fastställts i praxis. Komplikationerna med ämnet är huvudsakligen att det inte klargjorts utförligt, i varken doktriThe thesis concerns with the evidence requirement in criminal processes and alternative hypotheses in relation to the prosecutor's accusation of crime. The requirement of proof means that the court's conviction of the defendant's debt must be “beyond reasonable doubt”. Due to lack of legislation on the proof requirement, it has instead been established in court practice. The mainly com
Over the years, humankind have made us dependent on fossil fuels. Not the least in terms of how we transport ourselves and goods. This dependence has a downside. The consumption of fossil fuels is contributing to global warming and climate change. An issue so urgent that we need to take action, and we need to do it now. With global agreements such as The Paris Agreement and The Sustainable Develop
Solidariskt ansvar har under lång tid tillämpats i Svensk lag i fall då flera personer ska svara för ett skadestånd. Det solidariska ansvaret innebär att en skadelidande kan kräva ut hela skadeståndet från endera skadevållaren. För att detta inte ska leda till orimliga slutsatser finns det dock tillfällen vid jämkade skadestånd då det solidariska skadeståndet ej används. I vilka jämkningsfall ett Joint and several liability has been used in Sweden for a long time when several people are held responsible for damages. Joint and several liability entails that a creditor can demand full compensation from any of the defendants. In order for this rule not to result in absurd consequences, there is an exception where mitigation of damages can lead to several liability instead. However, to what ex
This master thesis work concerns fault detection and isolation (FDI) of an electro-mechanical servo using analytical redundancy. The purpose is to reduce the number of sensors used in today's fault detection schemes and at the same time keep the level of redundancy in the system. The report will start with a comparison between physical and analytical redundancy. Whichever design method that is
Today, the most commonly used energy storage device in embedded systems is batteries. But unfortunately, batteries are associated with short lifetime. By introducing Electrochemical Double-Layer Capacitors (EDLCs) as an alternative power source, the lifetime of the backup energy source can be significantly increased. The lifetime is dependent on two predominant factors; temperature and voltage. T
De senaste åren har upphovsrätten fått mycket uppmärksamhet eftersom den digitala utvecklingen och framväxandet av Internet gjort det möjligt att snabbt och utan kvalitetsförlust lagra och överföra stora mängder ljud, bild och text. Denna överföring är inte sällan olovlig och det sker idag omfattande upphovsrättsintrång över Internet. I dessa intrång är det i huvudsak tre olika aktörer som är inblIn recent years, copyright law has been given much attention since the digital development and the emergence of the Internet made it possible to quickly storage and transfer large amounts of audio, images and text without loss of quality. The transfer is often illegal and there is a widespread copyright infringement going on in the Internet environment. In these infringements there are three main
We need universal policies that can embrace the broad masses in the society. At the same time, this does not mean that these policies are good for everyone. There could be local knowledge and experiences from individuals that universal education policies fail to notice, see or neglect. It is important to have universal education policies that can embrace the broad masses. It is also important to k

Old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) trees provide important habitat structures in boreal forest ecosystems, yet long-term intensive forest management in Sweden has made such trees increasingly rare and difficult to locate across large forest landscapes. Although field-based inventories can identify old trees reliably, they are time-consuming, costly, and spatially limited. This creates a need for
Introduction: This study was performed to optimize extraction of lead, copper and zinc from seaweed using pressurized hot water, to investigate the selectivity and extractability of the extraction. Background: Pressurized hot water extraction is an environmentally sustainable method in comparison to more common extraction methods, such as distillation or solvent extraction, used with plant mater
Due to an increasing ease of access to social media outlets, more tourists than ever are able to share their comments, images and videos of travel experiences. As such this user generated content is said to have more of an impact than professionally produced content on the decisions of prospective travellers. On this basis the major objective of this study is to identify the overall perspectives h
