In the Mediterranean area, the 4.2 ka BP event is recorded with contrasting expressions between regions. In the southern Alps, the high-altitude Lake Petit (Mercantour Massif, France; 2200 m a.s.l.) offers pollen and diatom-rich sediments covering the last 4800 years. A multi-proxy analysis recently revealed a detrital pulse around 4200 cal BP due to increasing erosion in the lake catchment. The

Background: There is an increasing recognition of epidemics of primarily tubular-interstitial chronic kidney disease (CKD) clustering in agricultural communities in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Although it is currently unclear whether there is a unified underlying aetiology, these conditions have been collectively termed CKD of undetermined cause (CKDu). CKDu is estimated to have led

A new stratigraphy for bimodal Oligocene flood volcanism that forms the volcanic plateau of northern Yemen is presented based on detailed field observations, petrography and geochemical correlations. The > 1 km thick volcanic pile is divided into three phases of volcanism: a main basaltic stage ( 31 to 29.7 Ma), a main silicic stage ( 29.7 to 29.5 Ma), and a stage of upper bimodal volcanism ( 29.5

Popular Abstract in Swedish Affärsklimatet för dagens energimarknad har varit händelserik de senaste två decennierna med introduktaion av den avreglerade elmarknaden och den ökade vikten av miljöfrågor vid design och inköp av energirelaterade anläggningar. Detta har bidragit med krav om nya analyskriterier, vilka inte bara påverkar den tekniska utformningen av komponenter och system, utan även tilThe business climate of the energy market has been eventful over the last two decades, particularly with the introduction of the deregulated electricity market and promotion of environmental issues. This has subsequently lead to new analysis criteria, influencing both technology requirements and production costs. To be able to manage all the questions that have arisen from this the knowledge of th

The European electric power industry has undergone considerable changes over the past two decades as a result of more stringent laws concerning environmental protection along with the deregulation and liberalization of the electric power market. However, the pressure to deliver solutions in regard to the issue of climate change has increased dramatically in the last few years and has given rise to

Decadal-scale variations in total organic carbon (TOC) concentration in lake water since AD1200 in two small lakes in southern Sweden were reconstructed based on visible-near-infrared spectroscopy (VNIRS) of their recent sediment successions. In order to assess the impacts of local land-use changes, regional variations in sulfur, and nitrogen deposition and climate variations on the inferred chang

The radionuclides (210)Po and (210)Pb widely present in the terrestrial environment are the final long-lived radionuclides in the decay of (238)U in the earth's crust. Their presence in the atmosphere is due to the decay of (222)Rn diffusing from the ground. The range of activity concentrations in ground level air for (210)Po is 0.03-0.3 Bq m(-3) and for (210)Pb 0.2-1.5 Bq m(-3). In drinking water

Piezoelectric ceramics -- as one widely commercialised group of smart materials -- exhibit a great potential for various engineering applications. Their high-frequency capabilities are in particular attractive for actuator and sensor devices, which nowadays are present in daily-life-technologies such as cellular phones, fuel injection systems, and so forth. At high loading levels however, severely

The aim of this dissertation is to study how narratorial commentary is implemented in six of George Eliot's novels ? Adam Bede, The Mill on the Floss, Silas Marner, Felix Holt, Middlemarch and Daniel Deronda ? as a process for shaping the reader's responses to these texts. Focusing on the ways in which narratorial commentary steers the dynamic relationship between narrator and reader, this investi

This is a thesis analysing the human rights of women who are trafficked to Sweden for the purpose of sexual exploitation. Sexual slavery is a highly lucrative global industry controlled by powerful criminal organisations. These groups make an estimated $7 billion a year on trafficking. Young women are often lured into prostitution rings by advertisements for domestic positions abroad and find them

According to article 37(b) of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), a deprivation of liberty of a child must be ''lawful'', ''non-arbitrary'', used as a ''measure of last resort only'' and ''for the shortest appropriate period of time''. Measures that contain deprivations of liberty shall be used in exceptional cases, as sa

In our time it is widely argued that we are undergoing global transformations that influence the way we think about ourselves and how we interact and form ties with others. The intensified global integration of service sectors during the last five to ten years underscores such transformations. In recent research and among popular commentators the rise of transnational call-centers in India that pr

”Hwart hjerta andas krig”: an analysis of the depiction of war in Skillingtryck 1770–1830. Even though modern Swedish history has been distinctively peaceful, with the country not having been at war since 1814, the Swedish prime minister Ulf Kristersson stated in January 2025 that Sweden, while not at war, is not at peace. Since conceptualizations of war have varied throughout history, this thesis

The investigation of Bismuth surface structures on InSb(110) surfaces is driven by the need to advance semiconductor technology for enhanced electronic device performance and new applications in optoelectronics and quantum computing. III-V semiconductors offer superior electronic properties compared to silicon. Incorporating Bismuth into these materials can significantly manipulate the bandgap, ma
