Patterns of local adaptation are expected to emerge when selection is spatially heterogeneous and sufficiently strong relative to the action of other evolutionary forces. The observation of local adaptation thus provides important insight into evolutionary processes and the adaptive divergence between populations. The seaweed fly Coelopa frigida exhibits an inversion polymorphism in all population
Trots dess introduktion under början av 1950-talet används vaskulär impedans ännu inte i klinisk omfattning för att förutsäga tidiga stadier av hjärt-kärlsjukdomar. Definierad som förhållandet mellan blodtryck och blodflöde beskriver vaskulär impedans motståndet mot blodflödet i det vaskulära systemet. Under detta avhandlingsprojekt uppskattades den lokala pulsvåghastigheten (PWV) och vaskulära Despite its introduction in the early 1950´s, vascular impedance has yet to be applied in clinical use to predict early stages of cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is defined as the ratio between blood pressure and flow and describes the opposition to blood flow within the cardiovascular system. During this thesis project, local pulse wave velocity (PWV) and vascular impedance was estimated from
BACKGROUND: Prognostic factors for metastasis in soft tissue sarcoma govern decisions regarding adjuvant treatment. However, the significance of initial tumor-related prognostic factors over time is largely unknown.METHODS: The current study included 338 patients with malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the extremities or the trunk wall whose tumors were reviewed by the Scandinavian Sarcoma Pa
The thesis describes and analyzes six companies’ origins and development over the period 1950-2002, a time when the Swedish industrial sector was dominated by companies that were formed in the early 1900s. The firms, situated in the same region, have after an eventful journey become world leaders in the segment of machines with capacity to lift more than five tonnes. Investigations in Swedish busi
Purpose: Transportation systems play a key role in providing individuals with a diversity of means to access their desired destinations and have significant impacts on their quality of life. The social perspective of mobility is, however, marginalized in the current model of transportation planning and significant changes are called for. This study aims to identify the barriers and opportunities o

Curing sepsis- Every second counts, every effort matters Sepsis has a rapid progression and successful treatment is often a race against time. Early identification and treatment with effective antibiotics is key for survival in sepsis. Every hour that passes by without adequate and appropriate antibiotics increases the mortality rate substantially. Antimicrobial resistance is therefore a rapidly g

This study investigates whether municipal corruption has influenced the impact of the Brazilian conditional cash transfer program Bolsa Família by comparing the Human Development Index (HDI) in 2000 and 2010. The decentralized implementation of Bolsa Família is modeled as a principal-agent problem between the federal government and local municipalities, where the federal government has utilized va
In many cities around the world, the financial crisis 2007 served as an opportunity both for grassroots movements and governments to rethink existing models of urban development. Some authors have pointed out that the crisis served to elevate discourses for progressive post-neoliberal urban transformations. Other, more sceptical accounts have pointed at the shift towards participative, networked g
In the beginning of the 1990s, Sweden experienced an economic recession. The unemployment rate increased significantly and the proportion of young adults receiving social assistance rose dra-matically. In response, municipalities initiated local intervention programs aimed at reducing the number of young social assistance recipients. In 2005, this population had decreased. However, the organizatio
Denna studie syftar till att undersöka house of brands-strategin för varumärken inom hotellbranschen, samt att förstå de relationsbyggande strategierna bakom uppbyggnaden och kommunikationen av varumärkena.

Arctic communities are currently experiencing the effects of climate change. This paper contributes to a growing body of vulnerability and adaptation research in the Arctic. This case study provides an assessment of current vulnerabilities and offers insight into how climate change is experienced in the hamlet of Cambridge Bay, Nunavut.

My thesis focuses on the relationship between the local and regional level of Swedish public governance. Since decentralisation has been an ongoing trend in the public sector for at least two decades I assess this subject to be of importance for further discussion and analysis. The dissertation is meant to evaluate a few of the original purposes of decentralisation pronounced by the national admin
