Background: The processes leading to the diversity of over 7000 present-day languages have been the subject of scholarly interest for centuries. Several factors have been suggested to contribute to the spatial segregation of speaker populations and the subsequent linguistic divergence. However, their formal testing and the quantification of their relative roles is still missing. We focussed here o
This study examines how tourism affects and reshapes residents’ identities and sense of place in the Sanno-chiku of Takayama City in Gifu Prefecture, Japan. This study focuses on residents’ lived experiences and discusses tourism through the ideas and concepts of place, sense of place, identity, mobility, and commodification. This study asks two research questions: 1) How does tourism shape local
In order to develop new pharmaceuticals, to optimize pharmacotherapy and secure patient safety, documentation of the properties of pharmaceutical formulations is a most important process. A significant practical problem associated with pre-clinical evaluation of lipophilic substances with pharmacological properties is their low aqueous solubility. The overall aim of this thesis was to develop te

Plants release to the atmosphere reactive gases, so-called volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The release of VOCs from vegetation is temperature-dependent and controlled by vegetation composition because different plant species release a distinct blend of VOCs. We used modelling approaches on ecosystem VOC release data collected across the Arctic, which is experiencing both rapid warming and veget

Bone and soft tissue tumors are very frequent. Less than 1% of them, however, are malignant, so-called sarcomas. Among these sarcomas, more than 50 different subtypes have been discerned, each individually rare and with its own biological and clinical features. Despite numerous breakthroughs in the last few decades, the proportion (around 1/3) who cannot be cured remains too high. Thus, better app

THEME 2025-2026 Swedish forestry stands at a crossroad. While intensive forest management supports a strong export industry, growing concerns are being raised about biodiversity loss, sustainability, and compliance with environmental objectives. These conflicting views have led to increased polarisation – rooted not only in policy differences, but in the language and emotions shaping public and po

Knowledge of how blood perfusion is affected during and after reconstructive surgery is of great importance to predict the survival of grafts and flaps. When commonly used reconstructive procedures were developed a century ago, they were based on empirical observations of clinical outcome. However, today modern, non-invasive techniques are available to monitor perfusion during and after surgery. A

The need for land security continues to be urgent for economic development in Africa. Central governments are implementing large-scale land reforms, yet the effects of land title formalisation are still not thoroughly understood. The growing evidence by macro-level empirical studies of the importance of property rights has not been sufficient for understanding the factors that determine property r
Purpose: The aim of this dissertation is to explore mobility in a proximity tourism context. Mobilities are being widely discussed in connection to society, everyday life, and tourism as a whole. Thus, it focuses on the staycation phenomenon as a case of proximity tourism. In particular on its representations in the digital media and as a local travel practice in Sweden. Considering that tourism i
2013 beslutades att Fritidsbadet i Ystad var i för dåligt skick för att fortsätta vara badhus och kommunen valde därför att permanent stänga badet. Samma år utlystes en markanvisningstävling för byggnaden med målsättning att hitta en ny användning för Fritidsbadet som funnits sedan 1961. Förslaget som vann och började realiseras 2017 ville göra badet till ett hotell och konferenscenter, vilket ja2013 it was concluded that Fritidsbadet in Ystad was in too bad condition to continue to be a public bath and the municipality decided to permanently close it. The same year an architecture completion was announced and the goal was to find a new use for Fritidsbadet that was built 1961. The winning proposal, that started to become realized in 2017, wants the bath to become a hotel, which I as a lo

On June 24th 2022, nearly two thousand people attempted to cross the border between Morocco and the Spanish enclave of Melilla, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries. Scholars have suggested that these border crossings in the Mediterranean highlight the systemic border violence that is exercised towards migrants in the region to prevent presenting them as isolated or sporadic.
