This is a Master's thesis, and it is a report on a study on different secondary packaging for the Tetra Brik Aseptic 1500 ml Slim package (TBA 1500 S). At the beginning of this study no installed filling line for the TBA 1500 S package existed. The first line was installed in October. Therefore a similar package was studied, the TBA 1000 S package. Data were collected on this package and then
Agricultural soils contribute to human welfare through their generation of manifold ecosystem services such as food security, water quality and climate regulation, but these are degraded by common farming practices. We have developed a roadmap for evaluating the contribution of both private- and public-good ecosystem services generated by agricultural soils to societal welfare. The approach consid
Scholars and practitioners are increasingly promoting so-called nature-based approaches for urban climate change adaptation. There is widespread consensus that they both support and require transdisciplinary approaches, notably by involving citizens in the change process and finding innovative ways to unite different actors’ efforts and capacities. However, there is little empirical evidence regar
Rapporten sammanfattar fjärilsinventeringar utförda 2024 inom Biogeografisk uppföljning som drivs av Naturvårdsverket. I fjällområdet inventerades totalt 35 ytor. Sammanlagt noterades 33 högnordiska blåvingar på 11 av 16 inventerade ytor, 36 dvärgpärlemorfjärilar på 12 av 18 ytor och 13 fjällsilversmygare på 4 inventerade ytor. Svartfläckig blåvinge observerades på 26 av 49 inventerade lokaler. To
Rapporten sammanfattar fjärilsinventeringar utförda 2016 inom Biogeografisk uppföljningsom drivs av Naturvårdsverket. I fjällområdet kunde 66 ytor inventeras och sammanlagtnoterades 80 högnordiska blåvingar på 20 ytor och 55 dvärgpärlemorfjärilar på 19 ytor.Inventeringen gav dessvärre inget fynd av fjällsilversmygare detta år.

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is the largest budget item in the European Union, but varied data reporting hampers holistic analysis. Here we have assembled the first dataset to our knowledge to report individual CAP payments by standardized CAP funding measures and geolocation. We created this dataset by translating, geolocating to the county or province (NUTS3) level, and consistently harm
A recurrent concern in nature conservation is the potential competition for forage plants between wild bees and managed honey bees. Specifically, that the highly sophisticated system of recruitment and large perennial colonies of honey bees quickly exhaust forage resources leading to the local extirpation of wild bees. However, different species of bees show different preferences for forage plants
Shifting flowering seasons is a global effect of climate change that can have important long-term evolutionary and demographic effects on plant communities. Life history optimization theory can be a valuable tool to assert the adaptive value and fitness effects of observed phenological shifts, but takes plant-plant competition rarely into account. Here we combine energy allocation models with evol
Soil biodiversity constitutes the biological pillars of ecosystem services provided by soils worldwide. Soil life is threatened by intense agricultural management and shifts in climatic conditions as two important global change drivers which are not often jointly studied under field conditions. We addressed the effects of experimental short-term drought over the wheat growing season on soil organi
A common migratory pattern in birds is that northerly breeding populations migrate to more southerly non-breeding sites compared to southerly breeding populations (leap-frog migration). Not only do populations experience differences in migration distances, but also different environmental conditions, which may vary spatiotemporally within their annual cycles, creating distinctive selective pressur
Agenda 2030 Graduate School blogLund University Agenda 2030 Graduate School is a global, cutting-edge research school and collaboration platform for issues related to societal challenges, sustainability and the 2030 Agenda. The 17 PhD students from all faculties at Lund University enrolled with the Agenda 2030 Graduate School relate their specific research topics to the Sustainable Development Goa
The Colombian peace agreement officially ended one of the world’s longest internal armed conflicts. But the transformation of land use that takes place in the wake of the peace agreement, has made the historic inequalities of access to land more visible and revealed inherent and violent struggles over resources that persist across the country. In this briefing we analyse the
During the last two decades, the Swedish education system for higher education has been reformed and expanded. During this period of change both bourgeois and social democratic parties have had the governmental power. Therefore, the following paper seeks to examine which party-political differences there are in the Swedish higher education from 1991 to 2014. This paper answers that question by qua
Before a processing unit is taken into production it is prepared with water instead of product, among other things it is sterilized this way. When this preparation phase is done, the water is pushed out with the product that is about to be processed. During this phase a mixed zone of water and product occurs. This mixed zone of water and product results in a cost for the producing company due to l
Unsustainable consumption is today an acknowledged global problem which is set to only get worse unless major changes take place. Our society is based on a linear model where unlimited resources serve as fuel for increased consumption. Even though awareness among consumers is growing, there are still many consumers who are unaware of the effects of their consumption on the environment. However, th
