The grocery market in Sweden is mainly divided between six different retailers who together have some 95% market share. The rest of the market is divided between thousands of different actors, selling groceries in other ways than the main retailers. This 5% market is interesting to investigate and the purpose is to identify the opportunities and barriers for those alternative food distributers. B
SLU (Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet) har ett pågående projekt i ett område i södra Skåne sedan 1989 där de studerar hur bekämpningsmedel i åar korrelerar med vad som används på åkrarna. Ett nytt projekt, initierat av SGI (Statens Geotekniska Institut), kallat PEGASUS (PEsticide occurrence in Groundwater, A Study for sustainable Use in Skåne) har påbörjat en undersökning i samma område för att studeSLU (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences) have had a project ongoing in a catchment area in southern Skåne for 20 years where they study how pesticide occurrence in surface waters correlate to the sort and amount used on the agricultural fields. A new project started by SGI (Swedish Geotechnical Institute) called PEGASUS (PEsticide occurrence in Groundwater, A Study for sustainable Use in
During the past decades there is a growing interest to include a cultural dimension in the debate on sustainable development. In this thesis I explore how culture, and more specifically the Flemish cultural sector, contributes to the transition to a sustainable society. By means of case studies, I examine how cultural organizations perceive their role in the transition process and how they transla
Finns det något utpräglande för debutverk eller är debutverk snarare en utgångspunkt för fortsatt skrivande? Föreliggande magisteruppsats beskriver Edith Södergrans, Karin Boyes, Elsa Graves, Sonja Åkessons och Katarina Frostensons debutverk. Dessa poeter analyseras i förhållande till senare verk. Metoden är textcentrerad och komparativ. Syftet med uppsatsen är att genom en jämförelse mellan debut
In this paper I review the current body of knowledge linking entrepreneurial motivation and performance. From this frame of reference I evaluate my experiences in commercialization of university research within the context of the entrepreneurship program. Commercialization of university research and external ideas has been a major priority of program. The students are strongly encouraged to develo
Meteoriter är indelade i tre huvudsakliga klasser, järn, sten-järn och stenmeteoriter. Stenmeteoriterna är vidare indelade i primitiva akondriter och kondriter. Kondriterna är vidare indelade i fyra grupper, enstatitkondriter, vanliga kondriter, kolrika kondriter och rumurutikondriter. Dessa grupper är i sin tur indelade i undergrupper, enstatitkondriterna är indelade i EH (hög FeO-halt) och EL (lMeteorites are divided into three basic groups, iron, stony-iron and stony meteorites. The stony meteorites are further divided into primitive achondrites and chondrites. The chondrite class is divided into different groups, enstatite chondrites, ordinary chondrites, carbonaceous chondrites and rumuruti chondrites. The enstatite chondrites are divided into EH and EL, which stands for enstatite hig
For at least a decade, no new drug principles have been added to the therapeutic armamentarium for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) associated with or suggestive of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Theoretically, there seem to be several possibilities to improve the current treatment, which is based mainly on alpha1-adrenoceptor (AR) antagonists, 5alpha-reductase inhibitors
A summary of the aging and material validation studies carried out for the ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) is presented. Particular emphasis is put on the different phenomena observed in straw tubes operating with the chosen Xe/CF4/CO2 mixture. The most serious effects observed are silicon deposition on the anode wire and damage of the anode wire gold plating. Etching phenomena and active
This paper describes an instrument - the Housing Enabler - used in the assessment of housing accessibility. The tool was developed from the original Enabler idea by Steinfeld et al (1979), resulting in an instrument for reliable assessment of the accessibility of the housing environment and the immediate outdoor environment in terms of occupational therapy. Apart from a description of the instrume
In this paper, we describe centering and noncentering methodology as complementary techniques for use in parametrization of broad classes of hierarchical models, with a view to the construction of effective MCMC algorithms for exploring posterior distributions from these models. We give a clear qualitative understanding as to when centering and noncentering work well, and introduce theory concerni
Between 1980 and 1983, 10 patients received high performance silicone rubber condylar implants for the treatment of isolated degenerative changes of the scaphotrapezial joint. Early clinical and radiographic results (at a mean of 15 months) were excellent. Late follow up of these 10 together with a further 11 patients, however, showed migration of the implant and radiological signs of silicone par
In time-selected migration birds adapt their fuel deposition and flight behaviour to maximise sustained migration speed. What are the expectations for the final part of spring migration when the transition to breeding takes place and the criterion of a maximum total migration speed is no longer relevant? Two possible strategies representing different ends of the capital – income spectrum are evalu
There are high hopes in Greenland that the country will go from being a nation of fishermen to a nation of oil producers. But what do we really know about the prospects? Our thesis investigates how favourable the geological, economic and institutional conditions are for building a self-sustaining economy in Greenland based on its hydrocarbon resources. The geological conclusions are encouraging.
Datering med accelerator? Måhända låter det otympligt, men när det handlar om att datera med hjälp av sällsynta slag av grundämnen kan varje atom räknas. Då handlar det om att kunna räkna enskilda atomer, vilket är möjligt med acceleratorbaserad masspektrometri, AMS. Lunds Universitet har en accelerator anpassad just för den här sortens mätningar, vilken främst nyttjas av institutionerna för fysiFor decades, accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) has been used for radiocarbon dating. The background of this technique is outlined along with an in-depth look at the graphitization process used to prepare samples for AMS analysis. The technology necessary to achieve the vacuum quality needed in graphitization and accelerator mass spectrometry is discussed as well. The graphitization system belong
