SLU (Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet) har ett pågående projekt i ett område i södra Skåne sedan 1989 där de studerar hur bekämpningsmedel i åar korrelerar med vad som används på åkrarna. Ett nytt projekt, initierat av SGI (Statens Geotekniska Institut), kallat PEGASUS (PEsticide occurrence in Groundwater, A Study for sustainable Use in Skåne) har påbörjat en undersökning i samma område för att studeSLU (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences) have had a project ongoing in a catchment area in southern Skåne for 20 years where they study how pesticide occurrence in surface waters correlate to the sort and amount used on the agricultural fields. A new project started by SGI (Swedish Geotechnical Institute) called PEGASUS (PEsticide occurrence in Groundwater, A Study for sustainable Use in

The society of today relies heavily on transportation. Goods and people are transported across the globe at an unprecedented scale and volume and the internal combustion engine is an integral part of the world's transportation systems. Combustion engines emit greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming, one of the most serious global threats today. One of several ways to increase effici

The study focuses on the girls stories about the response, their experience from their illness; therefore we used a qualitative content analysis, based on five autobiographies. Our questions which we based our

As the amount of high dimensional data becomes increasingly accessible and common, the need for reliable methods to combat problems such as overfitting and multicollinearity increases. Models need to be able to manage large data sets where predictor variables often outnumber the amount of observations. In this study the frequentist and Bayesian framework is tested against each other based on three

The primary aim of the paper is to evaluate whether listed Nordic serial acquirers create short-term abnormal returns at the time of acquisition announcements, and also to determine if serial acquirers experience diminishing returns following additional acquisition announcements, and if concentrated family ownership mitigates the diminishing returns. Theoretical perspectives used include agency t

Centrala lägen av städerna vilka tidigare nyttjats för industri har genom ett förändrande samhälle och ekonomi kommit att lämnats orörda och i förfall. Detta medför att det idag finns attraktiva fastigheter med potentiella föroreningar i mark och byggnader vilka samhället nu önskar utnyttja för andra ändamål såsom bostäder, kontor och handel. Exploatering av dessa områden innebär stora kostnader oAttractive locations in cities, previously used for industry, have been left untouched and in disrepair due to changes in society and the economy. This situation has resulted in central properties with potentially contaminated land and buildings that society now wishes to redevelop for housing, offices and commerce. Developing these areas involves significant costs and uncertainties for potential

Idag används intelligenstester frekvent i rekryteringssammanhang och då dessa tester har visat sig vara en stark prediktor för framtida arbetsinsats läggs vikt vid dessa när det kommer till olika urvalsprocesser. Av den anledningen är det inte ovanligt att arbetssökande får genomföra ett intelligenstest vid flera tillfällen i sin karriär vilket kan leda till olika resultat vid olika tillfällen. StIntelligence tests are frequently used in recruitment contexts since these tests have shown to be a strong predictor when it comes to future work performance. Therefore, it is not uncommon for job seekers to take these tests on several occasions throughout their careers with scores fluctuating to some degree. The aim of the study was to investigate whether there is an improvement in the performanc

Otrohet har historiskt varit ett mycket allvarligt brott i Sverige men gärningens rättsliga betydelse har förändrats drastiskt och är idag enbart reglerat genom en symbolisk bestämmelse.

To achieve the purpose of the essay, different aspects of the

Barns rätt att bli hörda är en av dem fyra grundläggande rättigheterna för barn enligt Barnkonventionen. Utöver att vara en grundläggande rättighet är det också en väsentlig del av processen rörande vård, boende och umgänge vilket regleras i Föräldrabalken.

Beyond being a central right, it also has a crucial role in proceedings concern-ing custody, residence and visitation according to Swedish law. There has been extensive legal development in the area of children´s rights within family law since the

An integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) system using 5G NR waveform is implemented on a ZCU208 radio frequency system on chip (RFSoC) platform. Visualization of the data is performed using the PYNQ platform which facilitates data exchange between the processing system (PS) and the programmable logic (PL). The radar algorithm uses channel information in the frequency domain to detect a targ

This project was completed in collaboration with the graph database company Neo4j with the aim of developing a new algorithm for automatic detection of software bugs that degrade system performance, commonly referred to as performance regressions in the industry. Due to the large number of benchmarks used to monitor different aspects of the product environment, a flexible and robust solution was n

MAX IV kommer bli världens första ultrabriljanta synkrotronljusring. Ringen använder magneter för att böja elektroners bana på ett helt nytt sätt och kommer därför producera röntgenljus i strålar som blir finare och mer fokuserade än vad någon annan anläggning i världen kan göra. Röntgenstrålarna leds ut i långa rör för att kunna användas till experiment. Ett av strålrören heter NanoMAX och det koX-rays have been used for imaging for over 100 years due to their unique interaction properties with matter that allow them to penetrate samples and reveal detailed structural information on the atomic scale. NanoMAX is one of the first beamlines to be developed at the new Swedish synchrotron radiation source MAX IV. It will use high brilliance, coherent X-radiation to utilize these properties ful

Imaging in scattering media is used in different fields such as medicine for the diagnosis of tissues or in combustion to study spray injection systems. The problem with imaging in scattering media is the blurring induced by multiply scattered photons. There exists techniques to reduce multiple scattering detection, based on various filtering approaches. Two-photon excitation fluorescence imaging
