Barns rätt till lek, vila och fritid är en utvärdering av Malmö stadsESF projekt med samma namn, genomförd ur ett barnrättsochsalutogent perspektiv. Genom intervjuer, fokusgrupper,observationer och dokumentanalys undersöker rapportenhur projektet har bidragit till social gemenskap, tillgång tillmeningsfulla fritidsaktiviteter och förbättrat välmående för barn isocioekonomiskt utsatta områden.Studi

Enhanced efforts in the transportation sector should be implemented to mitigate the adverse effects of CO2 emissions resulting from zoning-based planning paradigms. The concept of a 15-minute city, emphasizing proximity-based planning, holds promise in reducing unnecessary travel and progressing towards carbon neutrality. However, a critical research question remains inadequately explored: to what

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is a central driver of bacterial evolution that utilises mobile genetic elements (MGEs) to enable the rapid acquisition and dissemination of genetic traits across microbial populations. Among these traits, defence systems against bacteriophages play a critical role in shaping host-parasite interactions and microbial community dynamics. Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems, o

The petroculture literature shows how fossil fuels have profoundly shaped modern cultures. This study introduces the concept of green petroculture to describe a cultural phase in which environmentally motivated solutions remain rooted in petrocultural ways of thinking and acting. Analysing the Swedish oil corporation Preem’s tall oil production, we examine how corporate sustainability strategies s

Local knowledge plays a central yet uneven role in climate change policymaking. Drawing on the concept of climate eco-governmentality, this paper examines how interactions among actors, knowledge, and scales shape the governance of mangrove ecosystems in the Colombian Caribbean. Building on critical climate change and political ecology scholarship, I analyse how knowledge produced by local communi

Poverty threatens human development especially for developing countries, so ending poverty has become one of the most important United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This study aims to explore China’s progress in poverty reduction from 2016 to 2019 through time-series multi-source geospatial data and a deep learning model. The poverty reduction efficiency (PRE) is measured by the di

Predicting the next visited location of an individual is a key problem in human mobility analysis, as it is required for the personalization and optimization of sustainable transport options. Here, we propose a transformer decoder-based neural network to predict the next location an individual will visit based on historical locations, time, and travel modes, which are behaviour dimensions often ov

Location graphs, compact representations of human mobility without geocoordinates, can be used to personalise location-based services. While they are more privacy-preserving than raw tracking data, it was shown that they still hold a considerable risk for users to be re-identified solely by the graph topology. However, it is unclear how this risk depends on the tracking duration. Here, we consider

We present a canonical series expansion for generalized harmonic functions in the open unit disc in the complex plane that generalizes that recently obtained for the class of (Formula presented.) -harmonic functions.

Decapping is a critical step in mRNA decay, but the mechanisms regulating human decapping enzyme DCP2 remain poorly understood. Here, we reconstitute the human decapping network using full-length recombinant proteins and compare it to the yeast system. Unlike in yeast, we find that the C-terminal region of human DCP2 is not autoinhibitory. RNA-binding residues of yeast Dcp2 are not conserved in th

”Människor och vilt i Skandinavien” syftar till att beskriva och illustrera hur samtida samhällsvetenskaplig och humanistisk forskning närmar sig frågor om vilt och viltförvaltning i Skandinavien. Rapporten består av två delar där Del 1 beskriver olika discipliner och deras teoretiska utgångspunkter och centrala frågeställningar inom forskningsfältet. Disciplinerna kategoriseras grovt utifrån den “Humans and Wildlife in Scandinavia” aims to describe and illustrate how contemporary social science and humanities research approaches issues related to wildlife and wildlife management in Scandinavia. The report consists of two parts. Part 1 describes the different disciplines and their theoretical foundations as well as central research questions within the field. The disciplines are broadly ca

Spark discharge generators (SDGs) are versatile tools for producing nanoparticles (NPs) with tailored properties. This study combines Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Particle Tracing (PT) simulations in COMSOL Multiphysics® with experimental data to investigate the effect of various chamber configurations, including inlet/outlet positioning and chamber volume on the NP output. Five geometri

Quantifying intra-person variability in travel choices is essential for the comprehension of activity–travel behaviour. Due to a lack of empirical studies, there is limited understanding of how an individual's travel pattern evolves over months and years. We use two high-resolution user-labelled datasets consisting of billions of GPS track points from ∼3800 individuals to analyse individuals’ acti

Human perception of place refers to residents' psychological feelings about urban areas. Many studies of human perceptions have focused on a specific geographic location. Whether the distribution of human perceptions in continuous city space shows specific characteristics and how to disclose these phenomena remains a direction worth exploring. Due to cities' heterogeneity, quantitatively identifyi

An in-depth analysis of the urban road network structure plays an essential role in understanding the distribution of urban functional area. To concentrate topologically densely connected road segments, communities of urban roads provide a new perspective to study the structure of the network. In this study, based on OpenStreetMap (OSM) roads and points-of-interest (POI) data, we employ the Infoma

The work developed within Following the Fish—an artistic research project exploring architecture, migration and collective practice through workshop-based methodologies—was presented at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2023 (20 May – 26 November 2023), one of the most significant international exhibitions of contemporary architecture, as part of the Catalan representation.The exhibition brought to

Nurse turnover is a central driver of the growing care deficits that characterise contemporary capitalism. In Sweden, despite policy efforts to improve retention, nurse shortages persist – destabilising care provision and intensifying workplace strain. This article explores how turnover and employer responses in the Swedish healthcare sector reflect the contradictory dynamics of market culture. Dr

Accurate activity location prediction is a crucial component of many mobility applications and is particularly required to develop personalized, sustainable transportation systems. Despite the widespread adoption of deep learning models, next location prediction models lack a comprehensive discussion and integration of mobility-related spatio-temporal contexts. Here, we utilize a multi-head self-a
