The objective of integrated pest and pollinator management (IPPM) is to co-manage for pest control and pollination goals. Departing from the well-established concept of integrated pest management, we include pollinator management in a hierarchical decision support system of management actions. We depict this support system as an IPPM pyramid. Priority is given to proactive measures at the base of
Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration [CO2] caused by anthropogenic activities has triggered a requirement to predict the future impact of [CO2] on forests. The Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region comprises a vast territory including forests, grasslands, farmlands and wetland ecosystems. In this study, the impacts of climate change and land-use change on forest carbon fluxes and vegeta
It has become more important for people worldwide to eat and drink products that offer us health- promoting benefits, which traditional foods do not possess. These kinds of products are called functional foods and have been fortified using vitamins, minerals or probiotics among others. Today, there are a lot of probiotic strains on the market and the first part of the aim of this study was to eval

This study saw the development of an experimental setup capable of generating and measuring optical-field-induced currents in a variety of nanodevices fabricated specifically for this project. Each device design features two metallic contacts, closely separated by about 5 micrometers, deposited onto a semiconductor or insulator substrate. The region between these two contacts is a junction, being
There are two purposes of thesis, the first is to determine: How efficient are Ready-To-Sell packaging solutions through IKEAs supply chain?

The explanations and solutions to psychological problems have varied throughout history. In recent decades, however, an ideology characterized by social inclusion and autonomy has emerged where the key element has been to make individuals with mental health problems a part of the community rather than to screen them from the rest of society. This essay analyzes the work of five community-based ser

26 procent av de svenska gymnasieeleverna studerar i dag vid en friskola. Lärarna på friskolorna har ett annat lojalitetskrav gentemot arbetsgivaren än kollegorna i de kommunala skolorna, men trots det visar min undersökning att det fortfarande finns en gemensam yrkesroll oavsett huvudman för skolan. Framförallt har jag i min studie undersökt hur lärarna uppfattar sin demokratiska roll och hur den
Multi-Criteria Evaluation Analysis (MCEA) is a decision making method employed to solve optimization problems that require the evaluation of a set of criteria to build an optimal decision. Where MCEA is integrated with GIS, optimization problems with spatial aspects, such as finding the best location of a facility across an area, could be solved. MCEA is implemented through different criteria dec
Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva och analysera SMF:s förutsättningar för att använda affärsmodellen som hjälpmedel för att kommunicera och driva strategisk förändring. Vi vill kontrastera dessa mot den befintliga forskningen om affärsmodeller och se om det finns skillnader mellan SMF och stora företag i förutsättningarna för användandet av affärsmodell som hjälpmedel. Uppsatsen är en kvaliThe purpose of this study is to describe and analyze conditions SMEs face to use the business model to communicate and implement strategic change.

En grön skolgård med många olika träd, buskar och blommor ger stora pedagogiska möjligheter, stärker den biologiska mångfalden, motverkar klimatförändringar och bidrar till barns hälsa och utveckling. Ändå är det idag få kommuner i landet som aktivt satsar på att utveckla skolgårdar med dessa kvaliteter. Finansiering av gröna skolgårdsprojekt behöver öka som en grund för en hållbar framtid!
The exchange of persistent organic pollutants (POPS) between different compartments of a typical mature boreal forest was investigated. The study focused on fluxes of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) between the atmosphere, vegetation and soil, and within the soil to assess whether this type of forest acts as a final sink-or temporary repository for POPs. The study, at a Swedish site, suggested to
Delningsekonomi är ett växande fenomen i samhället. Kortfattat handlar delningsekonomi om att använda underutnyttjade resurser bättre genom att dela. Att dela ytor kan innebära en mer effektiv användning av befintliga byggnader vilket potentiellt kan minska behovet av nyproduktion. På svenska fastighetsmarknaden finns däremot viss problematik som hindrar en ökad delning av ytor. Problematiken beröThe sharing economy is a growing phenomenon in society. Simply described, the sharing economy is about using underutilized resources better through sharing. Sharing space can mean a more efficient use of existing buildings, which potentially can reduce the need for new buildings. In the Swedish real estate market, there are certain problems that prevent an increased sharing of space. The problems

Efficient protection of huge amount of IoT produced data is key for wide scale data analytic services. The most efficient way is to use pure symmetric encryption as that allows both fast decryption at the analytic engine side as well as energy efficient encryption at the IoT side. However, symmetric encryption can only be performed if there is a way to directly map an encrypted object to the corre
