It is a huge challenge for any strategic communicator to reach its audience as they are constantly overwhelmed with information. A current trend is to create so-called deepfakes, where a photo, audio, or video can be manipulated while making it feel authentic. Although it is an effective way to engage and entertain that has become increasingly popular, it has also received a lot of criticism as it
Sammanfattning Organiserad brottslighet samt hur man bekämpar och förebygger detta relativt utbredda problem är ett prioriterat område som får allt större utrymme i svensk kriminalpolitik. Det pågår en samhällsdebatt om att införa ett kronvittnessystem i Sverige. Justitieminister Beatrice Ask förespråkar systemet i hopp om att komma till bukt med den organiserade brottsligheten. Det svenska rätAbstract Means to prevent and reduce the growth of organized crime is a prioritized area in Swedish criminal politics. There is an ongoing debate about the introduction of a crown witness system in Sweden. The minister of Justice, Beatrice Ask, supports the system in hope to reduce organized crime.

Popular science summary Are drugs only drugs for human being? An experiment to see if some of the anthropogenic pharmaceuticals are toxic contaminants for the aquatic environment. All kinds of pharmaceuticals have been using widely and the amount has been increased significantly during the last few decades. Concerns about the occurrence of pharmaceuticals releasing into different matrixes of th
Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit att undersöka täckningsprincipen i svensk rätt, med ett särskilt fokus på dess tillämpning när ansvar för medhjälp aktualiseras. Målet har varit att försöka utreda dels vilka krav gällande rätt uppställer vid uppsåtstäckningen vid medhjälp och dels bidra med ett normativt perspektiv genom att granska gällande rätt ur ett konformitets- och skuldperspektiv. DThe purpose of this master thesis has been to investigate the ”coverage principle”, in Swedish law, which means that the accused´s criminal intent needs to “cover” the unlawful act, for which he or she stands accused. The focus has been on the principles meaning when aiding and abetting, as defined in the Swedish Penal Code, become actualized. The applicable law has also been studied from a confor
Denna studie behandlar den komplexa karaktären hos snölaviner och hur de kan förutsägas, och därmed undvikas, vid navigering genom fjällterräng under vinteraktiviteter. Risken för laviner i skidområdet Nuolja, i norra Sverige, utvärderades genom en experimentell tillämpning av The Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) som är en modell utvecklad för planering och bedömning av lavinexponering. ModThis study addresses the complex nature of snow avalanches and how their location can be predicted, and thus avoided, when navigating through mountainous terrain during winter recreations. The avalanche risk in the ski area of Nuolja, in northern Sweden, was evaluated by an experimental implementation of the Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) which is a model for pre-trip planning and assessm
Krig, konflikter och fattigdom har under en lång tid tvingat afghaner att fly och emigrera från sitt hemland. Uppsatsens fokus ligger på den afghanska flyktingsituationen i grannländerna Iran och Pakistan och hur dessa länder tillsammans med Afghanistan, UNCHR och NGOs ser på flyktingsituationen och vilka lösningsstrategier de anser som mest hållbara. År 2012 skapades ett nytt fyrpartsavtal : Sol
Mellan cirka 30-50 procent av den mat som produceras i världen årligen kommer aldrig människan tillgodo som föda. Att mat slängs eller på annat sätt går förlorad i livsmedelskedjan är ett stort problem, framför allt för att många människor i världen inte har tillgång till mat men också för att produktionen av livsmedel medför en betydande miljöpåverkan. Vad gäller statistiken över matsvinnet är deIt is estimated that between 30 and 50 percent of the food produced in the world annually will never be consumed by humans. The fact that significant amounts of food are lost or thrown away in the food supply chain is not just an environmental issue; above all it is a huge problem because many people in the world do not have access to food. Lost food and waste appears throughout the whole food sup
Popular science summary Non steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most consumed pharmaceuticals worldwide, and thus belong to the most frequently identified pharmaceuticals in aquatic environments. Until now multiple examinations have shown adverse effects of NSAIDs on life functions of aquatic organisms even in low concentrations. However, there is still lack of data about toxic
The Intermediate Data Structure (IDS) is a standardised database structure for longitudinal historical databases. Such a common structure facilitates data sharing and comparative research. In this study, we propose an extended version of IDS, named IDS-Geo, that also includes geographic data. The geographic data that will be stored in IDS-Geo are primarily buildings and/or property units, and the
Tetra Pak Global Technical Support AB (GTS) is a company within the Tetra Pak group which main task is to supply the whole world with spare parts for all kinds of Tetra Pak machines. GTS supplies about half a million different parts, which demands a large purchase organisation. This thesis deals with the so-called Sourcing purchase, which is a term for purchase of non-forecasted parts that have no
Konstgjord grundvattenbildning är en viktig teknik i vattenhushållningssammanhang och är idag en av de vanligaste och mest utbredda metoderna i världen för att öka vår grundvattenkapacitet. I många länder har den här tekniken använts under lång tid medan den i andra är i framåtskridande. Tekniken har använts i Europa sedan början av 1900-talet och är fortfarande en vanlig metod för grundvattenförsArtificial groundwater recharge is an important technology in water resources management and is nowadays one of the most common and rapidly spread world wide methods for increasing groundwater capacity. In many countries this technique has been employed for a long time, however in the others it is in progress. It has been used in Europe since the early 1900s, and is still a popular method municipa
BACKGROUND: Musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders are less likely to be reported as an underlying cause of death (UCD) and since cause of death studies are generally limited to the UCD, little is known about socioeconomic inequalities in MSK disorders as cause of death in the general population. Using multiple-cause-of-death data, we aimed to quantify and compare educational inequalities in musculoskele
Dextrose syrups are produced from starch by liquefaction combined with saccharification. In the conventional production process, rotary vacuum filters (RVFs) with a diatomaceous earth (kieselguhr) coating as filter aid are often used for removal of the so-called mud phase after the liquefaction and saccharification step. This mud phase consists of insoluble impurities and suspended solids such as
Conceptual design is the first phase in the design process in which all the requirements and design objectives are synthesized into conceptual alternatives. In practice today, major decisions regarding the buildings function, massing, and overall form are usually made during the first phase. Considering structural performance requirements during conceptual design enhances interdisciplinary interac
Ovid closed his 15-book epic of transformation with the metamorphosis of the poet into his work and his work into its own reception, summed up in the final word: uiuam (‘I shall live’). The prophecy has been self-fulfilling, in that the Metamorphoses has entertained readers and inspired artists in different media for two millennia since the poet’s death in AD 17. Loved for its vast repository of m
Disaster risk management (DRM) requires the collaboration of a variety of stakeholders working in different sectors. They depend on each other to share risk information, and effective collaboration requires efficient communication. Clearly, the communication of risk descriptions is a key issue for the success of DRM activities. This study investigated the communication of risk-related information
Background: Except for overall survival, whether or not waiting time for treatment could influences other domains of cancer patients' overall well-being is to a large extent unknown. Therefore, we performed this study to determine the effect of waiting time for cancer treatment on the mental health of patients with esophageal or gastric cancer. Methods: Based on the Swedish National Quality Regist
Associations between long-Term exposure to ambient air pollution and cognitive function have been observed in a few longitudinal studies. Our aim was to investigate the association between long-Term exposure to air pollution and episodic memory, a marker of early cognitive decline. We used data from the Betula study in Northern Sweden, and included participants 60 to 85 of age at inclusion, 1,469
