Dragonflies are highly skilled and successful aerial predators that are even capable of selectively attending to one target within a swarm. Detection and tracking of prey is likely to be driven by small target motion detector (STMD) neurons identified from several insect groups. Prior work has shown that dragonfly STMD responses are facilitated by targets moving on a continuous path, enhancing the
In 2009, the International Soil Moisture Network (ISMN) was initiated as a community effort, funded by the European Space Agency, to serve as a centralised data hosting facility for globally available in situ soil moisture measurements . The ISMN brings together in situ soil moisture measurements collected and freely shared by a multitude of organisations, harmonises them in terms of units and sam
Understanding mechanisms involved in speciation can be challenging, especially when hybridization or introgression blurs species boundaries. In bats, resolving relationships of some closely related groups has proved difficult due subtle interspecific variation both in morphometrics and molecular data sets. The endemic South American Histiotus bats, currently considered a subgenus of Eptesicus, har
SUMMARY: Antibody repertoires reveal insights into the biology of the adaptive immune system and empower diagnostics and therapeutics. There are currently multiple tools available for the annotation of antibody sequences. All downstream analyses such as choosing lead drug candidates depend on the correct annotation of these sequences; however, a thorough comparison of the performance of these tool

How sustainable development (SD) is envisioned, practiced and financed is a crucial question today. In Denmark, the former government introduced private sector-driven development (PSDD) at the heart of Danish development cooperation. In this thesis, I seek to understand how the Danish development community (represented in this study by four large civil society NGOs) have positioned themselves to t
Use of wholegrain foods has shown importance in terms of prevention of obesity and related comorbidities. Positive metabolic effects of wholegrain barley have been investigated with this regard. In the same line of research, this study aims to investigate the effects of barley kernel bread on glucose regulation, appetite and colonic fermentation in middle aged subjects. A randomized control trial
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur fastanställda på den svenska arbetsmarknaden upplever att de påverkas av ett chefsbyte. Undersökningen analyserar betydelsen det kan ha för den anställda samt vilka faktorer som kan påverka och orsaka ett negativt eller positivt upplevt chefsbyte. Detta skulle kunna vara något de flesta företag skulle ha användning av vid ett chefsbyte, vilket gör ämneThe aim of this study was to investigate how permanent employees on the Swedish labor market perceive they are affected by a change of manager. The study analyzes the significance it can have for the employee, as well as which factors can influence and cause a negatively or positively experienced change. This information could benefit most companies when changing managers, which makes the topic in

The thesis focuses on the evolving relationship between art and its reproduction in the digital age on the one hand, and the contemporary observer on the other. The research focuses on art reproduction by means of virtual reality (VR) techniques, and delves into the history of art reproduction from antiquity to modern methods. It adopts a phenomenological approach, scrutinizing two case studies: R
While flying today the customers will receive static advertisements on the screens placed in front of every seat. Hence, the advertisements do not differ depending on the flight’s duration or personal interests. Our goal was to develop a marketing tool where the marketing team at different airlines could specify under which circumstances a certain advertisement would be displayed onboard. The desi
This thesis presents a comprehensive study of performance characterization and quality control (QC) for the ATLAS Inner Tracker (ITk) silicon strip modules, undertaken in preparation for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) upgrade. The work focuses on two aspects: test beam campaigns and thermal cycles. During the test beam campaigns at DESY in October and December 2024, unirradiate
Being stateless, roughly means being without a citizenship of any nation. This is the definition of being stateless in legal terms, called de jure statelessness. There is also statelessness that entails being without the efficient protection of one’s nation, called de facto statelessness. Two groups of stateless migrants that correspond to these definitions are Bidoons from Kuwait and Palestinians
Alkaline exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFC) is an interesting and attractive alternative to proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) due to the potential use of non-precious catalysts which can reduce the overall cost of the fuel cell. An important component of the AEMFC is the anion conducting membrane. This membrane needs to possess several important properties such as a high hydroxide cond
There is a heated debate going on concerning the use of migration detention in Europe. In the wake of the increased number of migrants trying to enter or having become irregular while residing in Europe, states seem to rely on the practice of migration detention in such a degree, that it has become an integral part of their national and European Union policies. This happens, despite the fact that
Trade costs and sunk export costs play a crucial role in defining trade flows between countries and, directly, affect firms’ strategic decisions in terms of international expansion. Trade costs include all the costs attached to a delivery of good to a final user and, thus, incorporate transportation costs, policy barriers, information costs, contract costs and currency costs. Sunk costs include co
Sharia har blivit ett hett ämne i debatten om huruvida Islam är förenligt med den moderna värld vi idag säger oss leva i eller ej. De samhällen där Islam är den dominerande religionen uppmanas att lägga Sharian bakom sig om de vill bli accepterade medlemmar i det internationella samfundet. Sharialagarna är till stor del baserade på Koranen men också på sunna – dvs. profeten Muhammeds vanor och rel
This thesis explores the end-consumers’ perspective on C2C returns within e-commerce. It investigates the consumer's attitudes towards and expectations of the service by investigating potential motivational incitements and perceived hinders when potentially participating in the process. A literature review on current research on returns management and C2C services was conducted, followed by fo
