Both carbon dioxide uptake and albedo of the land surface affect global climate. However, climate change mitigation by increasing carbon uptake can cause a warming trade-off by decreasing albedo, with most research focusing on afforestation and its interaction with snow. Here, we present carbon uptake and albedo observations from 176 globally distributed flux stations. We demonstrate a gradual dec
This chapter focuses on Bornholm and compares it to Gotland, since these Baltic islands are home to the largest concentrations of Viking-Age silver hoards in Denmark and Sweden respectively. It considers recent approaches to the questions of why and how hoards were deposited and presents six case studies of partially excavated hoard sites on Bornholm. The reasons for their deposition may have vari
The Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Registry (SKAR) has recorded knee arthroplasties prospectively in Sweden since 1975. The only outcome measure available to date has been revision status. While questionnaires on health outcome may function as more comprehensive endpoints, it is unclear which are the most appropriate. We tested various outcome questionnaires in order to determine which is the best for
What determines the seasonal and interannual variation of growth rates in trees in a tropical forest? We explore this question with a novel four-year high-temporal-resolution data set of carbon allocation from two forest plots in the Bolivian Amazon. The forests show strong seasonal variation in tree wood growth rates, which are largely explained by shifts in carbon allocation, and not by shifts i
Crop production often comes at the expense of losses in ecosystem services and biodiversity; however, this might not always be the case. Here we test the effects of shade gradients and agricultural inputs on trade-offs or synergies between coffee yield and ecosystem services and biodiversity data for smallholder coffee plantations of Arabica coffee in Peru. We collected data using surveys (n = 162
Målet med strålbehandling är att leverera en tillräckligt hög stråldos för att skadacellerna i en cancertumör utan att skada omkringliggande friska celler. Olika typerav celler är olika känsliga för strålning vilket man måste ta hänsyn och idaggörs med datoriserad stråldosplanering. Vid dosplanering provas olika antal strålfältmed olika vinklar och intensitet forma stråldosen att täcka tumören utaRadiotherapy is one of the essential treatments used in the fight against cancer. The goal of radiotherapy is to deliver a high dose of ionising radiation to the tumour volume and at the same time minimise the effect on healthy tissue by reducing the radiation to critical organs. This contradiction is challenging and has been driving the research and development of the treatments.Over the last two
Solar energy is an important source of clean energy to combat climate change issues that motivate the establishment of solar farms. Establishing solar farms has been considered a proper alternative for energy production in countries like Mozambique, which need reliable and clean sources of energy for sustainable development. However, selecting proper sites for creating solar farms is a function of
Title: Finding optimal logistical hubs for Swedish export - A study of selecting global locations Authors: Cecilia Eskilsson and Fredrik Hansson Tutors: Andreas Norrman, Professor, Department of Industrial Management and Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University, Oskar Henkow, Lecturer, Department of Business Law, School of Economics and Management, Lund University Henrik Danielsson, He
We relate variation in the timing of arrival by migrating birds breeding at northerly latitudes to individual differences in the prior accumulation of energy stores. Balancing starvation risks early in the season against the almost universal declining trend in reproductive prospects with advancing date is seen as an individual decision with fitness consequences. We review three studies implicating
This report summaries the work undertaken to date, and provides a platform on which further site selection, training and fieldwork may be undertaken. The outline quantity of sitework is stated, based on a build up of likely time input required. The availability and applicability of the two main datasets, STATS19 and On The Spot (OTS) data, is summarised. Currently, STATS19 has yielded 11 potential
Starting from deep understanding of the area and the surroundings of the site, with having in mined what social groups live in Kirseberg and their social and economic status, the project aim to develop the area between the old city of Kirseberg and Malmö city focusing on improving the connections from and to the site and connect it to the surroundings areas, with emphasizing the feeling of the cit
Ett fullt mekaniskt rotationsbromssystem aktiverat och reglerat av vinkelacceleration har utvecklats av Brillianze Sweden AB. Bromsens användningsområde ska utökas och därför skapades modeller för flerkroppsdynamiska simuleringar i Adams/View. Det är första gången forskning eller simulationer har gjorts på systemet. Det huvudsakliga målet med avhandlingen var att bekräfta och fortsatt undersöka bA fully mechanical rotational brake system activated and regulated by rate of change in angular velocity has been developed by Brillianze Sweden AB. Its field of usage is currently limited and is to be expanded upon. Therefore new models were made to perform multibody dynamics simulations in Adams/View. This is the first time any research or simulations have been made on this specific brake system
Den digitala utvecklingen som skett de senaste årtiondena har lett till att internet idag är en nödvändighet för individer, men även samhället i stort, i västvärlden. En värld utan internet är idag otänkbar. För att kunna utnyttja internet till fullo och lyckas navigera i detta gigantiska nätverk är internetlänkar en förutsättning. Länkar kopplar nämligen samman information på internet och underläThe digital revolution has changed the way we live, work and interact. Internet, a gigantic network full of information, is today a necessity in Western societies and a world without it is unimaginable. In order to be able to navigate within the Internet and retrieve information, the usage of links is vital since it connects the information available on the Internet. The Internet user can therefor
On-going human population growth and changing patterns of resource consumption are increasing global demand for ecosystem services, many of which are provided by soils. Some of these ecosystem services are linearly related to the surface area of pervious soil, whereas others show non-linear relationships, making ecosystem service optimization a complex task. As limited land availability creates co

Numerous species adopt inducible defence strategies; that is, they have phenotypically plastic traits that decrease the risk of capture and consumption by potential predators. The benefits of expressing alternative phenotypes in high- vs. low-risk environments are well documented. However, inducible anti-predator traits are also expected to incur costs, as they are not expressed when predators are
4 weeks The aim of the course is to offer participants an opportunity to improve their communicative strategies and academic writing skills to meet disciplinary demands. An explicit aim is to increase the participants’ awareness of the prevailing publication conventions in their specific field of study, with a primary focus on research articles.

This work will first go through different definitions about what constitute a holding company. Thereafter the Swedish tax rules, relevant for the localisation of a holding company, will be examined. Subsequently different definitions will be discussed about what constitute a holding company. In that context the concept tax paradise will be discussed. In the next chapter those criterias will be dis
Abstract in UndeterminedA family of iterative receivers is evaluated in terms of complexity and performance for the case of an uplink multi-user (MU) multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system. The transmission over block fading channels is considered. The analyzed class of receivers is performing channel estimation inside the iterative detection l
