Biodiversity loss and the climate crisis are closely linked. A warmer climate impacts wildlife, entire ecosystems and people, while biodiversity loss exacerbates the effects of climate change. Innovative research can limit the negative effects of these intertwined crises. Researchers at Lund University are investigating the complex links between biodiversity loss and climate change. They are also

This thesis investigates what kind of inequality the world is concerned about today and compares traditional and new measures of inequality to see how these measures relate to current views on fairness and justice. The analysis is based on different theories of justice and measurement princi- ples, and the relationship between each measure and the theory is investigated. Latin America and the

As an SI leader, you help a group of students from a specific course to work through relevant course material. You hold an SI session each week. You can read more about the role of SI leader and how to apply here. Selected courses have SI sessionsSI leaders and SI sessions are tied to specific challenging courses that the SI leaders themselves have studied and completed. These are usually introduc

This study aimed to examine how social workers work with children’s right to be heard and with assessments of the best interests of the child in social services investigations, as well as how they manage the tension between these two principles. The study adopted a qualitative approach and is based on semistructured interviews. The participants consisted of six investigative social workers from di

Total hip replacement (THR) is an effective intervention with a good cost/benefit ratio. Worldwide, each year it brings relief in the form of improved function and decreased pain to at least half a million patients with severe osteoarthritis (OA). Since the introduction by Charnley more than 30 years ago, the basic concept remains much the same, but with a multitude of changes in details of surgic

For a stationary two-dimensional random field evolving in time, we derive the intensity distributions of appropriately defined velocities of crossing contours. The results are based on a generalization of the Rice formula. The theory can be applied to practical problems where evolving random fields are considered to be adequate models. We study dynamical aspects of deep sea waves by applying the d

When a company or country exports product to a lower price than the domestic market it is called dumping. The importing country is able to protect the domestic market by imposing anti-dumping duties. If this is done outside the rules the exporting country may file a complaint of anti-dumping to the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) at World Trade Organization (WTO). It is not known why some countries
