The impact climate and land-use changes have on the hydrological conditions in peat bogs and lakes is often complex, but of great importance for the carbon budget and biodiversity in these ecosystems. Links and feedbacks between raised bog water table depth, lake level, net precipitation, hydrometeorological indices, and radial tree growth have been studied and identified in the Rėkyva wetland com
The Swedish Strategic Innovation Agenda for Geoenergy develops a strategy for highlighting the need for geoenergy research, development and innovation in relation to the business community and authorities. Sweden has a strong global position in the field. Geothermal energy is the thirdlargest renewable energy source in Sweden, along with wind power. Currently, approximately 18 TWh of renewable he
Sedan slutet av 1970-talet har Kina upplevt en anmärkningsvärd socioekonomisk utveckling. Tendensen till marknadifiering och modernisering försvagade kulturellt rotade livsstilar och allt fler etniska minoritetsgrupper i Kina har börjat betrakta traditionell kultur som irrelevant för deras försörjning och framtid samt i viss utsträckning också har börjat ta avstånd från dessa. Detta utgör ett hot Since the late 1970s, China has experienced remarkable socioeconomic development. The trend towards marketisation and modernisation overturned culturally-rooted lifestyles, and more and more ethnic minorities in China have started to regard their traditional cultures as irrelevant to their livelihoods and future and chosen to move away from them. This poses a threat to the idea of ethnic diversity

Popular Abstract in English In Mozambique, many wild fruit species occur naturally in forest environments. Most of the wild fruits are consumed fresh because of their short shelf-life when ripe. Forests play an important role in rural communities as a source of food and medicinal and social/cultural services and also provide a source of income when fruits are sold at local markets. Some parts of MVangueria infausta (African medlar) is a wild fruit found in southern and central Mozambique. The ripe fruit has a leathery skin enclosing three to five seeds embedded in a soft pulp that tastes like apple. It plays an important role in the diet of the rural population and has the potential for commercial use. The fruit is mostly eaten fresh, and sometimes mixed with porridges, but in some parts
Tourism is largely dependent on climatic and natural resources. For example, "warmer'' climates generally constitute preferred environments for recreation and leisure, and natural resources such as fresh water, biodiversity, beaches or landscapes are essential preconditions for tourism. Global environmental change threatens these foundations of tourism through climate change, modifications of glob
Popular Abstract in Swedish Jorden i vår natur är en mycket komplex miljö som innehåller en mängd olika organismer. Bland dessa är bakterier och svampar av störst betydelse eftersom de står för en stor del av nedbrytningen av olika ämnen. Jordbakterierna utför t.ex. många av ämnesomvandlingarna av kväve, svavel och fosfor i marken. Nedbrytningen frigör näringsämnen som sedan kan utnyttjas av växteThe soil bacterial community is under the constant influence of its environment. Changing any of the factors affecting the bacterial community will induce a selection pressure which, with time, will change the community. In this work the effect of changing the temperature or pH on the soil bacterial community was studied. Measurements using the [3H]-thymidine incorporation technique showed that th
"The technology for planning and delivering radiotherapy has in the last decade undergone some revolutionary development and it is now possible to perform complex treatments such as stereotactic treatments and treatments using dynamic wedges, multileaf collimator and intensity modulation. The more precise limits surrounding the PTV have made it of utmost interest to be able to verify calculat
Popular Abstract in Swedish Svår alfa-1antitrypsinbrist (AAT-brist), s.k. PiZZ, är ett ärftligt tillstånd som har en hög förekomst i Sverige, cirka 1/1600.

Syftet med denna uppsats var att via en studie undersöka hur nosologi används i diagnostiska sammanhang, och teorisera om hur denna process kan utvecklas. Studien undersökte individers korrekthet i bedömningen av från-eller närvaron av symtom i ICD-10, samt deras logiska förhållande. 26 respondenter som under sin utbildningstid avslutat en kurs i psykiatrisk diagnostik genomförde en enkätundersöknThe purpose of this study, divided into two parts, was to research and review on how nosological methods are used and can be developed in a clinical environment. A survey was performed, where 26 students that have completed a course in psychiatric diagnostics answered true or false statements about the presence of specific symptoms and their logical connection in three selected diagnoses from ICD-

One of the most controversially debated issues regarding public procurement is that of procurement linkages. The questions evolve ar
It has been known for a long time that older adults suffer a significantly higher risk of dying in residential fires compared to younger people. The characteristics of these fatal fires and the fatalities are also well known. However, less is known about older adults who survive fires and how they differ from those who die. This distinction can be assumed to be of great importance when designing e
