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

Authors: Elin Copcutt and Jessica Holst Title: Stress eller kontroll? – En kvalitativ studie om socialsekreterarens syn på sin yrkesroll. Supervisor: Carina Tigervall This paper examines how six social workers from four local authority social services departments in the south of Sweden find their work situation. The idea for the subject matter came from the media where social workers often are

In the digital age, encounters between librarians and library users take place not only at the library, but increasingly on the web. Therefore, it is of importance that libraries reflect upon how they relate to users in the web environment. The purpose of this Master’s thesis is to discern patterns regarding how librarians at the three largest public libraries in Sweden relate to users on library

The laminate flooring company Pergo (Europe) AB has during the last years identified an increasing market demand for customized flooring solutions. In the autumn of 2004 Pergo had no standardized product offer and the existing administrative process was not suited to produce and deliver customized products. Experiments concerning a new décor production technique with extensive potential based on d

Health plays a vital role in every human’s life; and the centre for the maintaining and retaining our health lies in the health care. Thanks to innovations in health care technology and innovations of new drugs the health care is constantly improving, which contributes to improved survival probability and improved quality of life. However, this development in health care comes at a high price, sin
