Kunskapsintensiva företagstjänster (KIBS) har en nyckelroll i den ekonomiska utvecklingen. Deras konkurrenskraft och värdeskapande processer bygger på komplexa samarbetsrelationer med kunder och andra aktörer. Av den anledningen har forskningen konventionellt lyft fram att dessa företags konkurrenskraft är starkt beroende av geografisk närhet till stora klient- och arbetsmarknader liksom till avanKnowledge intensive business services (KIBS) play a key role in economic development. Due to the complex and collaborative nature of their value creation processes, it is conventionally argued that they depend strongly on physical proximity to large client-, and labour-markets, as well as on closeness to advanced knowledge infrastructures. This thesis partially questions such conventional assumpti

Avian ecosystem services such as the suppression of pests are considered to be of high ecological and economic importance in a range of ecosystems, especially in tropical agroforestry. However, how bird predation success is related to the diversity and composition of the bird community, as well as local and landscape factors, is poorly understood. We quantified arthropod predation in relation to t

While renewable energy output in the World increases, Russia shows an opposite trend, consisting of a highly engrained fossil fuel-driven economy with very little State priority towards diversifying its energy supply. Accordingly, although wind energy represents only a niche market, it is more economically viable to electrifying Northern peripheral communities than connecting them to the national

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Städernas hårdgjorda ytor hindrar nederbörd från att infiltrera ner i marken, vilket ger dagvatten som måste tas om hand. I och med ett framtida ändrat klimat kommer vintrarna i Skåne att bli varmare, med mer regn och mindre snö och antalet dagar med kraftig nederbörd att bli fler. Med mer intensiva regn ökar risken att städernas vattenledningsnät översvämmas. ÖIn cities hard surfaces prevent rainwater from infiltrating to the ground, which causes runoff,stormwater, that needs to be taken care of. With future changes in climate patterns winters in Scania, southern Sweden, will be warmer, with more rain and less snow and more days with more than 10 mm of precipitation. More intensive rains increase the chance of flooding of urban drainage systems. Open se

Background: The microbiology and the susceptibility patterns of infected total knee arthroplasties (TKAs) vary depending on demographic, local antimicrobial stewardship, and surgical factors. We wanted to compare the recent microbial profile and antimicrobial resistance pattern in revisions due to infections after primary TKAs in Sweden and Lithuania. Our hypothesis was that there is a difference

OBJECTIVES: Deep bone and joint infections (DBJI) are directly intertwined with health, demographic change towards an elderly population, and wellbeing.The elderly human population is more prone to acquire infections, and the consequences such as pain, reduced quality of life, morbidity, absence from work and premature retirement due to disability place significant burdens on already strained heal

A policy brief can be a powerful tool for research to engage with policymakers, reach out with important results, and to contribute to a democratisation of research. For policy briefs to have an impact, the message needs to be clear and the topic considered urgent. In this workshop, participants discussed how to communicate science for policy and how to make the most out of policy briefs as a mean

This thesis investigates the decision-making process that led to the rapid adoption of small-scale hydropower projects, and its social implications, in Kosovo between 2013 and 2021. However, the fairness of the decision-making process for hydropower projects has been heavily criticized by local communities and NGOs. This research links procedural justice concerns voiced by a small community in Sou

In Bolivia climate change and anthropogenic activities such as extensive agriculture, industries and urbanization have increased the groundwater demand and extraction, which is leading to severe stress on groundwater resources in several regions of Bolivia. This research aims to present an overview of different geophysical surveys performed in Valle Alto (central Bolivia), in particular in the Pun

A study of submicron-sized InGaN containing a single quantum well, intended for use as nano-light-emitting diodes in high-resolution display based on direct emission, is presented. Herein, the structures are grown by a bottom-up method from holes in a masked GaN/sapphire substrate and are intended for red emission. Many of the platelets show dark lines in cathodoluminescence images, previously ide

The lidar technique is an efficient tool for remote monitoring of the distribution of a number of atmospheric species. We study measurements of sulphur dioxide emitted from the Italian volcano Mt. Etna. This study is focused on the treatment of data and on the procedure to evaluate range-resolved concentrations. In order to make an in-depth analysis, the lidar system was prepared to store measurem

We screened six populations of the clonal forest floor moss Plagiomnium affine from forests of different ages for genetic variation at 23 allozyme loci. Samples consisting of two adjacent, unconnected shoots were taken at regular intervals along one transect from each population. Transect lengths varied from 22 to 52 m, depending on the size of the local populations. From a sample of 602 shoots, w

The fracture mechanics properties of injection-moulded low-density polyethylene (LDPE) sheets were investigated both experimentally and numerically. The total work of fracture was determined experimentally, by means of fracture mechanics testing of sheets of injection-moulded LDPE with side cracks of different lengths. A multi-specimen method, proposed by Kim and Joe (1987), was employed. The tota

Protein complex formation is encoded by specific interactions at the atomic scale, but the computational cost of modeling proteins at this level often requires use of simplified energy models and limited conformational flexibility. In particular, use of all-atom energy functions and backbone and side-chain flexibility results in rugged energy landscapes that are difficult to explore. In this study
