Den Nagssugtoqidiska orogenen är ett cirka 300 km brett Paleoproterozoiskt deformerat och metamorfaserat bälte som sträcker sig över de södra och mellersta delarna av västra Grönland. Bergarterna karaktäriseras och domineras av metamorf arkeisk ortognejs och en mindre del suprakrustala sekvenser, där metasediment finns representerade. Trots sin ringa omfattning utgör de suprakrustala sekvenserna eThe Nagssugtoqidian Orogen is represented by an approximately 300 km wide Palaeoproterozoic deformation and metamorphic belt that stretch through the southern and middle parts of west Greenland. The Orogen is characterized and dominated by metamorphosed Archaean orthogneisses with minor supracrustal sequences. Despite its small extent the supracrustal sequences are an important factor in the inter

Augustenborg storm water system has become well known for its incorporation of urban green spaces. Open storm water system was developed in late 1990s by disconnecting impervious surfaces from combined sewers as a result of flooding problem in the basements after heavy rain events. The open storm water management system consists of open channels and ponds, a small wetland, green infiltration areas

“1000 Extra” is a project that takes off in the sub optimal conditions that city planning in the 20-th century has left behind for the future. First and foremost looking at the conditions of residential areas planned based on doctrines stemming in modernism, the project proposes desnsifying the not-so-dense areas in Lund, consisting of row houses and other residential buildings in the same categor

Micropollutants in our sources of freshwater is an issue which requires immediate attention. The presence of pharmaceuticals, endocrine disrupting agents, pesticides and other harmful compounds have proven to have impact on the aquatic as well as on human life. Treated wastewater being a major source of ingress of micropollutants into the aquatic environment, the current standards do not stipulate

This thesis investigates how urban experimentation is governed in the new development district in Sege park in Malmö. Together with with private developers and a local NGO the municipality test and experiment with solutions for how the sharing economy can contribute to reduce the future resident’s climate impact and living costs. By using the theoretical lens of governmentality this thesis focusse

With the development of low energy buildings in Northern European countries, conflicts regarding balancing daylight and energy performances in buildings arise. Therefore, design solutions that balance daylight and energy performances in buildings are needed. MKB Greenhouse is a newly-built, Miljöbyggnad Gold and Feby-Passive House certified, multi-family housing in Malmö, Sweden. Greenhouse also e

Uppsatsen behandlar hur miljörelaterade fordringar hanteras när en verksamhet går i konkurs och i vilken utsträckning principen om att förorenaren ska betala får genomslag i svensk konkursrätt. Utgångspunkten är de praktiska problem som uppstår när kostsamma efterbehandlingsåtgärder aktualiseras först efter konkursutbrottet, samtidigt som det inte finns någon generell skyldighet för staten eller kThis thesis examines how environmental claims are treated when a business is declared bankrupt, and to what extent the polluter pays principle is upheld in Swedish bankruptcy law. The point of departure is the practical difficulties that occur when costly remediation measures become relevant only after the opening of bankruptcy proceedings, while there is no general legal obligation for the State

BACKGROUND: – Proteins linked to heritable coronary heart disease (CHD) could uncover new pathophysiological mechanisms of atherosclerosis. We report on the protein profile associated with a family history of early-onset CHD and whether the relation between proteins and coronary atherosclerotic burden differs according to family history status, as well as inferences from Mendelian randomization. M

Background Trauma is the leading cause of quality-related mortality in low- and middle-income countries, with an estimated two million preventable deaths each year. Although trauma quality improvement programmes have been utilised in high-income countries for more than three decades, there is no high-level evidence of their effect on patient outcomes. We aimed to assess whether implementing a cont

Denna avhandling undersöker hur aktörer i Stilla havet producerade och spred oppositionell kunskap om kärnvapentester från 1950-talet till början av 2000-talet, med Franska Polynesien i fokus. För att analysera detta lanseras begreppet vittnesaktivism som övergripande står för organiserade praktiker av vittnesmål, dokumentinsamling, arkivering och transnationell spridning, genom vilka aktörer utmaThis dissertation examines how actors in the Pacific produced, mobilized, and circulated oppositional knowledge about nuclear weapons testing from the 1950s to the early 2000s, with French Polynesia as its primary focus. At its core is witness activism: coordinated practices of testimony, document retrieval and annotation, archiving, publication, and transnational circulation through which activis

Background and objective: We established prognostic nomograms incorporating prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) parameters standardised by Prostate Cancer Molecular Imaging Standardized Evaluation (PROMISE; PPP1). Here, we develop an updated PPP2 risk score from a large international multicentre registry study. Methods: We included 6128 prostate cancer pati

Solpaneler på taket är numera en vanlig syn, men vart tar elen vägen när solen skiner som mest? I detta examensarbete har det undersökts hur flerbostadshus kan använda egna batterier för att spara pengar, bli mer självförsörjande och samtidigt stötta elsystemet. Svaret är att batterier kan löna sig, om de används smart. När elnätet blir allt mer pressat och produktionen från förnybar energi varierThis thesis examines the economic potential of lithium-ion battery storage systems in multi-family residential buildings in Sweden, focusing on profitability, revenue opportunities, and the factors influencing investment decisions. The increasing share of renewable electricity, combined with the electrification of society, has intensified the need for energy storage solutions capable of balancing

Importance: The ability to predict sudden cardiac death (SCD) in children and adolescents with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is currently inadequate. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is associated with SCD events in adults with HCM. Objective: To examine the prognostic significance of LGE in patients with HCM who are younger than 21 years. De

Throughout history, human civilisation and wildlife have instinctively settled close to water and coastlines out of necessity for resources. It has always been a natural instinct, yet we have also continually adapted to weather conditions and relocated when resources were found elsewhere. We have always been flexible and mobile, adapting to nature and allowing it to lead and guide us. With the ris

Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Genome editing and investigation of the peroxisome & beta-oxidation For thousands of years humans have used yeast to brew beer, bake bread and make wine. Nowadays, these microorganisms can be used to produce various chemicals and proteins. One interesting compound is capsaicin, found in the chili pepper plant and commonly used in food, but lesser-known for its applic

GPS tracking technologies are essential to follow long-distance migratory species throughout their annual cycle and identify the threats they encounter at large geographical scales. Information on the “lost” years of juvenile individuals of many species is lacking and it is vital to uncover their movements during these critical early stages. The Baltic Lesser Black-backed Gull (L. f. fuscus), a lo

The PResymptomatic EValuation of Experimental or Novel Treatments for Alzheimer's Disease (PREVENT-AD) is an investigator-driven study that was created in 2011 and enrolled cognitively normal older adults with a family history of sporadic AD. Participants are deeply phenotyped and have now been followed annually for more than 12 years (median follow-up 8.0 years, SD 3.1). Multimodal magnetic reson
