Mobile bodies, travelling theories - Öresund / Gibraltar A webinar series on borderland formation at Europe’s antipodes 14 September, at 14.30 to 16.00 Territories beyond compare? An exploratory roundtable on the Öresund and Gibraltar borderlands Geovisualisations of borderland formation are hard to come by in both the Öresund and Gibraltar contexts. In this introductory roundtable, we ask: What e

New garden cultivars are constantly being developed and old ones disappear. In order to preserve older cultivars for the future, the Swedish Programme for Diversity of Cultivated PLants (POM) started in 2002, and the National Gene Bank in Alnarp opened in 2016. In Alnarp, older cultivars grow in large fields.As a back up to the living plant collections, there are local clone archives all around Sw

This study examines how Swedish municipalities interpret and implement the new Swedish law regarding municipal responsibility for crime prevention work. The law contains a responsibility for Swedish municipalities to base their crime prevention work on an evidence basis. Furthermore, the law includes a responsibility for municipalities to establish a situational picture as well as coordination of

Sustainable waste management is a complex task within environmental governance, and municipalities play a key role in governing a transition of the waste system toward prevention and reuse. This calls for an enhanced understanding of local capacities for change, and therefore this thesis adopts a socio-institutional perspective on the power of actors to influence local transitions. Through a quali

Soot particles strongly absorb radiation in the visible and infrared spectral regions, and the soot interaction with laser light during laser diagnostic interrogation leads to particle heating and often to subsequent sublimation. Consequently, laser-heated particles transfer heat to the ambient gas leading to local gas heating, a process that has received minor attention so far in the diagnostic c

Ph.D. training is an important mechanism for developing scientists who will serve our knowledge-based society. Because the quality of students who join Ph.D. programs significantly impacts the outcome of Ph.D. training, students’ career choices at this initial stage—whether to proceed to Ph.D. or not—are of crucial interest. This study investigates how students’ attributes and the local lab enviro

This study explores a bi-isotopic approach to migration, adding δ18O values to samples with 87Sr/86Sr values for 109 individuals from the Iron Age (500 BCE–1050 CE) on the island of Öland, Sweden. Determining a local baseline for 87Sr/86Sr was complicated due to the wide range of variation in faunal samples so we divided the human values into three groups: local, non-local and undetermined. The ad

PURPOSE: To estimate and compare the costs of maxillary sinus augmentation performed with autologous bone graft either from the iliac crest or from local bone harvested from the mandibula. To evaluate post-operative health-related quality-of-life parameters for patients subjected to sinus augmentation and iliac bone surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The hospital records of 14 patients subjected to si

We investigate how local distinguishability can restrict global properties of states shared between two parties. We begin exploring how nonlocality becomes limited by local state discrimination and observe a nontrivial tradeoff between Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) violation and success probability of local discrimination. We extend our findings to bounding the maximally entangled state fideli

För att undersöka och utvärdera temperaturfördelningar och efterföljande lastfall i betongkonstruktioner kan exempelvis temperatursimuleringar användas. Sådana simuleringar har gjorts i flera tidigare studier med hjälp av väderdata som mätts upp i närheten av den konstruktion som studeras. Denna metod har dock begränsningar i och med att viktiga klimatparametrar som globalstrålning och långvågig sTo study and evaluate temperature distributions and subsequent load cases in concrete structures it is common to use thermal simulations. Such simulations have been performed in multiple previous studies using weather data measured in the vicinity of the studied object. However, this method has limitations, since important factors such as solar radiation and longwave heat radiation are only measur

The goal of person text-image matching is to retrieve images of specific pedestrians using natural language. Although a lot of research results have been achieved in persona text-image matching, existing methods still face two challenges. First,due to the ambiguous semantic information in the features, aligning the textual features with their corresponding image features is always tricky. Second,

Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science, Lund University Page 1 of 1 NGEA51 May-July 2017 In the early summer of 2017 the ecologist of Svalöv municipality welcomed me as an intern. I had a great and very diverse internship since my supervisor’s job was to deal with everything from ecology to strategical environmental planning. My task was to follow her half of the time, and besides

The limits and prospects of nerd politics in IndonesiaJohn Postill, Vice-Chancellor’s Senior Research Fellow at RMIT University, MelbourneIn this paper I draw from recent anthropological fieldwork to track the rise of a new class of political actor in Indonesia in the post-Suharto era: politicised nerds. These are ICT or media specialists of various kinds (e.g. geeks, hackers, tech journalists, in

Densification can cause air pollution and noise and lead to negative health effects. Densification can also conflict with the availability to green environments and ecosystem services that contribute to temperature regulation, water uptake and recreation. About the project  Today most swedes live in cities. Densification of cities is necessary to reduce the housing shortage. To densify a city has

Anticipating and mitigating impacts of future agricultural policy reform on biodiversity and ecosystem services in mixed farming-forestry landscapes Farming plays an essential role for society in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem services in European agricultural landscapes, which is a major rationale for continued subsidies under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) of the EU.

Finland has a long history of constructing civil defence shelters and considering defence from a comprehensive, whole-of-society approach. Due to that long history, the requirements for civil defence construction have varied throughout the decades although the main purpose of the civil defence shelter system has remained the same: protecting the population from the effects of armed conflicts. The
