Lauded for its success and heralded as an economic model for peripheral European countries to follow, since the bursting of the Irish property bubble in 2008 the management of the Celtic Tiger by the Irish state has been castigated as expressively how not to manage an economic bubble. Following a decade and a half of continuous growth averaging over six per cent, the Irish economy has since experi
Cloud computing is an infrastructure that allows companies to rent any type of computing resources, such as network capacity and processing power, according to their current needs. Rather than a new technology, cloud computing is a new way of delivering computing resources. Despite the advantages that this infrastructure brings, it still poses many threats in several areas. In Sweden alone one thi
During the Middle Ages the poor had a special place in society and were viewed upon as a means for others to reach salvation. This picture changed during the Reformation and poverty was seen both with aversion and suspicion and the Lutheran work ethic was predominant. At this time poverty was not considered to be a social phenomenon, but rather a moral defect, and most poor people were regarded to
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Brachiopodernas öde under Irevikenkatastrofen. För ungefär 430 miljoner år sedan, under tidsperioden silur, låg det område som idag är Gotland under havsytan i ett varmt, grunt hav strax söder om ekvatorn. Stora mängder kalk och lera avlagrades på havsbottnen och i havet levde bl.a. cephalopoder, trilobiter, fiskar och brachiopoder (armfotingar), det senare en bThe brachiopod fauna from parts of the Lower and Upper Visby formations on Gotland has been investigated through a combined outcrop and literature study. The strata of these formations were formed during the Ireviken Event, one of the severest identified oceanic events on Gotland, with diversity changes and extinctions among several groups of marine taxa. Seven bulk samples were collected from str
Spatial and temporal variations in malaria transmission are naturally associated with prevailing climatic and environmental factors, for example rainfall, humidity, temperature and human activities. These factors influence malaria transmission mainly in non-deterministic ways, making them less appropriate for accurate geographical mapping of malaria risk. One distinctive phenomenon, ‘photosyntheti
Alla ekosystem, skogar, sjöar, hav etc., är föränderliga och står under konstant påverkan, såväl inre som yttre, vilken försöker driva det för stunden rådande tillståndet åt olika håll. Sjöar har två dominerande tillstånd som de kan befinna sig i, antingen är de näringsfattiga och klara eller så är de näringsrika och grumliga. I den har studien har jag undersökt Börringesjön, i södra Skåne. SyftetAbstract All ecosystems, forests, lakes, seas etc., are changeable and are under constant influence, inner as well as outer, that try to push the for the moment present state in different directions. Lakes have two dominating states in which they can exist, they are either clear and low in nutrients or turbid and high in nutrients. In this study I have been examining lake Börringesjön in the sout
“Amphawa” the district in Samutsongkram province where is plentiful of natural resources, local wisdoms and unique fascination of waterside living lifestyle, the area was trading and transportation hub of lower central and western part included of Thailand. Amphawa is widely well-known and people are able to define how the area was. Nowadays, technology and innovation magically shrink the world in
Abstract The yeast Dekkera/Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a distant relative of baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and either has positive or negative effects to beverage flavor development. D. bruxellensis and S. cerevisiae display several similar traits which play very important roles in food industry, such as production of high ethanol levels. In our lab, we determined and annotated the 13.
One of the biggest question in physics is to investigate the early universe or big bang. 10 µs after big bang, there existed a phase of transition called QGP (Quark Gluon Plasma). In this phase of transition quarks and gluon were free from each other. In normal life neutron and proton consist of three quarks with exchanging gluons. To simulate QGP scientists has built the large accelerator at CERN
In the past people sought for information via libraries, travel magazines or were inspired by marketing the travel agency made in order to attract consumers. Before the Internet era one way communication was the right way to follow. Since Internet was developed two ways communication has evolved and people can talk to each other worldwide. The development of the two ways communication has created
São Francisco-kratonen i Sydamerika är en mycket gammal landmassa som bär spår av upprepade extensionella händelser då magmor från manteln transporterades uppåt och kristalliserade som diabas. Tidigare försök att åldersbestämma dessa gångbergarter är få och begränsade till radiometriska metoder som är känsliga för metamorfos och vittring. I denna studie har diabaser från Uauá-blocket och Curaçá-bä
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: I en mosse i södra Sverige, som heter Viss mosse, har fynd av trädstammar gjorts. Fynden gäller ek, bok och al. Denna horisont med trädstammar tyder på att miljön på mossen var förhållandevis torr när träden levde, eftersom det normalt sett är för blött på en mosse för att ekar och bokar ska kunna växa där. Kol-14-dateringar visar att träden dog för cirka 3 200 Findings of a tree stump horizon in Viss mosse, a raised bog in Scania, southern Sweden, indicate relatively dry conditions on the bog during the lifetime of the trees . 14C-datings show that the trees died about 3 200 years ago. Four peat cores were collected from the bog in order to investigate whether climatically induced water level fluctuations were responsible for establishemt and death of t
The heating of buildings is one of the major consumers of energy in the western world. Despite that several energy-efficient techniques and measures exists which have been proven to be cost-effective they have a hard time to find their way into practice due to barriers within the building sector. This sector is characterized by fragmentation in different stages of the buildings development process
Studies performed in various countries have shown that negative attitudes and beliefs towards stuttering and People Who Stutter (PWS), which can lead to stigmatization, discrimination and social anxiety, are widespread across different societies. It is important that clinicians are aware that patients can meet different attitudes in their daily life, affecting health care seeking behavior and self
Lärare aktiva i det svenska skolsystemet innehar inte bara en uppgift att i sin tjänst förmedla kunskap. De har även en skyldighet att upprätthålla ordning samt säkra studiero och trygghet i skolan. Efter flertalet domslut som fattats under senare år har gällande rätt visat sig vara problematisk att klart definiera, vilket resulterat i att lärare idag erfar en osäkerhet över vilka befogenheter som
Despite the so-called ‘great retreat’, in which people arguably are distancing themselves from the political sphere and civic engagement, the last two years has seen an upsurge in political activities. Outside the realms of institutionalised politics, i.e. political parties, lies a whole terrain of alternative political activities, including social movements and media institutions. Following the E
Helsingborgs Stad vill i samarbete med HSB, PEAB och Riksbyggen exploatera Sjöcrona Park i centrala Helsingborg, Sverige, med flerbostadshus. Inför en exploatering är det viktigt att ha god kunskap om geologiska förhållanden så som jordlagermäktigheter, hydrogeologi och om det finns sprickzoner eller lervittrade sprickzoner i berggrunden som påverkar bergkvaliteten. För att få en bättre bild av deThe city of Helsingborg together with HSB, PEAB and Riksbyggen wants to construct apartment buildings in Sjöcrona Park in central Helsingborg, Sweden. Before a construction it is important to have good knowledge about geological conditions such as ground layer thickness, hydrogeology and if there are any clay weathered fracture zones that may affect the quality of the bedrock. To obtain a better e
