Mänskliga aktiviteter påverkar den biologiska mångfalden genom en mängd olika aktiviteter som ofta leder till att ekosystem utarmas. Detta leder i förlängningen till stora samhällsekonomiska förluster. Det nuvarande svenska rättsliga systemet för bevarande av biologisk mångfald fokuserar på att bevara och skydda arter som är hotade och specifika områden där dessa lever. Jag ifrågasätter utgångspunHuman activities affect biological diversity in a multitude of ways,often leading to a disruption of ecosystems. In extension this results in large economic losses for the society. The present Swedish system for preservation of biodiversity focuses on conservation of species and the specific habitats of these. I want to challenge the basic premise that biodiversity is best sustained through the pr

Luxembourg has been able to build up a very rich financial centre due to the use of a strong legal framework, social and political stability in the Grand Duchy and long-standing economic openness to the outside world. It is the second largest investment fund centre in the world after the United States and the premier private banking centre in the Euro zone. As understood, it has attracted many wea

This report covers a study that documents the status of BIM uses of two leading companies in the construction industry. What makes this study interesting is that, to date, there has previously not been an objective status report recording of BIM usage in Sweden. It would be of great value to test a method of assessment in Sweden to enable comparisons to be made and inform the nation of how far the

The aim of the current study was to gain an overview of factors that can effect social secretaries motivation, both positively and negatively, in their work with social assistance. This study has focused on what the employee does rather than what he or she earns as a factor that leads to increased work motivation. To have motivated employees are important in every organization and above all in Hum

Mobile Stroke Units (MSUs), which are specialised ambulances equipped with brain imaging devices and trained medical personnel, offer the potential for rapid on-site diagnosis and treatment, improving patient outcomes in prehospital stroke care. To fully realise their benefits, it is essential to strategically allocate. However, identifying optimal locations within a region for MSU deployment is t

Microbial enzyme diversity is a key to understand many ecosystem processes. Whole metagenome sequencing (WMG) obtains information on functional genes, but it is costly and inefficient due to large amount of sequencing that is required. In this study, we have applied a captured metagenomics technique for functional genes in soil microorganisms, as an alternative to WMG. Large-scale targeting of fun

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate test-retest reliability, agreement, internal consistency, and floor- and ceiling effects of the Danish and Finnish versions of the Satisfaction with the Assistive Technology Services (SATS) instrument among adult users of powered wheelchairs (PWCs) or powered scooters (scooters).
