Straw addition is a widely used agricultural practice to maintain soil fertility. However, its effects on soil organic carbon (SOC) and nutrient cycling are complex, with outcomes ranging from inhibition to stimulation of SOC mineralization via the priming effect. Freeze-thaw cycles are common disturbances in agroecosystems of high-altitude regions that are predicted to increase in frequency and s

The preparatory work for the Discrimination Act claims, only a small proportion of the discrimination cases brought before the Labour Court result in a conviction. Both critics and the DO believe that that same proportion has a background in the Labour Court's assessment and how well the Labour Court justifies its assessment. The critical discussion rarely includes what the judgments actually

Bakgrund: Korrekt utfört triage på akutmottagningar kräver klinisk erfarenhet och god beslutsförmåga. På akutmottagningar är det ofta hög personalomsättning vilket gör det svårt för sjuksköterskan att utvecklas från novis till expert. Syftet var att beskriva hur sjuksköterskor upplever att erfarenhet påverkar triagebeslut på akutmottagningar. Metod: En integrerad sammanställning av 11 kvalitativa

"If on a winter’s night an architect" was developed and presented within the Milano International Design Studio (MInDS) at Politecnico di Milano as an intensive workshop focused on model production.The work was produced exclusively through physical models, understood not as representations of predefined designs but as tools for thinking. Through iterative processes of making, testing, and reconfig

Autonomous robots capable of turning natural-language instructions into reliable physical actions remain a central challenge in artificial intelligence. Here we show that connecting a large language model agent to the robot operating system enables a versatile framework for embodied intelligence, and we release the complete implementation as freely available open-source code. The agent automatical

PurposeHealthcare organizations increasingly rely on measurement practices to assess and improve care quality. However, how “quality” is conceptualized across different levels of the healthcare system remains unclear. This study explores perceptions of quality and quality indicators in intensive care, using two Swedish ICUs as case studies.Design/methodology/approachThe study examines two general

The spatial distribution of buildings is one of the key factors influencing the local environment within a city. The quantitative measurement of building distribution can provide critical information for exploring local climate patterns in urban areas. Previous studies mainly focused on the two-dimensional spatial distribution of buildings and ignored the differences in height. In this study, a th

Detecting travel modes from global navigation satellite system (GNSS) trajectories is essential for understanding individual travel behavior and a prerequisite for achieving sustainable transport systems. While studies have acknowledged the benefits of incorporating geospatial context information into travel mode detection models, few have summarized context modeling approaches and analyzed the si

Over the past decade, scientific studies have used the growing availability of large tracking datasets to enhance our understanding of human mobility behavior. However, so far data processing pipelines for the varying data collection methods are not standardized and consequently limit the reproducibility, comparability, and transferability of methods and results in quantitative human mobility anal

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
