Mellanstatliga organisationer är självklara inslag i den internationella miljön. Organisationerna ger stadga åt internationellt samarbete och skapar nödvändiga diskussionsforum där stater och andra aktörer kan lösa gemensamma problem. Sverige, via politiker, parlamentariker och tjänstemän, är aktivt i mängder av mellanstatliga organisationer, och arbetet i dem får ofta stor genomslagskraft. Trots

Background: Research involving expressed sequence tags ( ESTs) is intricately coupled to the existence of large, well-annotated sequence repositories. Comparatively complete and satisfactory annotated public sequence libraries are, however, available only for a limited range of organisms, rendering the absence of sequences and gene structure information a tangible problem for those working with ta

1. We review and update recent observations of cyanobacteria-zooplankton interactions, identify theoretical and methodological limitations and evaluate approaches necessary for understanding the effects of increasing cyanobacterial blooms on plankton dynamics. 2. The emphasis on oversimplified studies using large-bodied Daphnia species, not previously exposed to cyanobacteria, has limited our unde

The increase and range extension of wolves (Canis lupus L) and brown bears ( Ursus arctos L) in Scandinavia inevitably impacts moose (Alces alces L.) populations and, as a consequence, the size and composition of the hunter harvest must be adjusted. We used a sex- and age-structured moose population model to delineate optimal harvest strategies under predation and to compare the resulting harvest

Field observations and experimental data of effects of nitrogen (N) deposition oil plant species diversity have been Used to derive empirical critical N loads for various ecosystems. The great advantage of such an approach is the inclusion of field evidence, but there are also restrictions, such as the absence of explicit criteria regarding significant effects on the vegetation, and the impossibil

Author: Suzanna Falck and Pernilla Wagland Title: Between discretion and rules - First-line managers' views on the possibility to influence. [translated title] Supervisor: Karin Kullberg Assessor: Christina Erneling The aim of our study was to examine how the relationship between rules and discretion was seen by first-line managers in the municipal eldercare. What interested us was what discr

Syfte: Uppsatsen syfte är att ge en bild av hur goodwillredovisning tillämpas i praktiken i några specifika företag. Metod: Vår studie är till sin karaktär huvudsakligen kvantitativ med en deduktiv ansats, även om det kan finnas små inslag av grundad teori. Vår studie är i huvudsak en dokumentstudie av företagens årsredovisningar. Teoretiska perspektiv: Vår teoretiska bas utgörs av en genomgång av

There is a long history of avian studies investigating the impacts of urbanization. While differences in several life-history traits have been documented, either between urban and rural populations or across generalized urbanization gradients, a detailed understanding of which specific environmental variables cause these phenotypic differences is still lacking. Here, we quantified several local en

Syftet är att analysera vilka variabler som påverkar performance positivt i nystartade BioMed och ITT-företag och i denna process även beskriva och jämföra hur dessa variabler ser ut i de två branschgrupperna och hur företagen har utvecklats. Vi har använt oss av en kvantitativ metod och har genom ett enkätutskick fått empiriskt material från 20 grundare av BioMed-företag och från 30 grundare av I

As global migration alters the demography of Swedish cities in the postwelfare era, socio-spatial polarisation and discrimination present acute challenges. In recent decades, Malmö has transformed from an industrial into a postindustrial, service economy-oriented city. The neoliberal urban planning and regeneration policies guiding such processes carry detrimental social and economic effects for u

Control of crop pests by shifting host plant availability and natural enemy activity at landscape scales has great potential to enhance the sustainability of agriculture. However, mainstreaming natural pest control requires improved understanding of how its benefits can be realized across a variety of agroecological contexts. Empirical studies suggest significant but highly variable responses of n

Problem background: The barrier between physical stores and online stores is blurred, which is paving the way for multi- and omni-channel retailing. Consumers of today are having a great access to information, due to their increased use of digital devices. Thus, the power among consumers is increasing, which is creating a thought of whether the consumer, or the retailer, is the party in charge. A

Enligt ett flertal forskare uppstår det en konflikt då västerländska turister besöker muslimska destinationer. När individer med olika sedvänjor, värderingar och världsbilder möts kan det uppstå en konflikt i och med att individer önskar använda platsen på olika sätt. En del destinationer har valt att, med hjälp av en fysisk uppdelning och/eller en “double-standard policy”, upprätta gränsdragningaAccording to a large amount of researchers, conflict arises as western tourists visit Muslim destinations. When differentiating customs, values and worldviews meet, a conflict can arise in relation to the utilisation of the physical area in which the two cultures interact. With the help of physical separation and double standard policies, some destinations have chosen demarcation as a tool to upho

Under den gångna våren röstades ett nytt Copyrightdirektiv igenom i EU, vilket har rönt stor uppmärksamhet. Det rör sig om Europaparlamentets och rådets direktiv (EU) 2019/790 av den 17 april 2019 om upphovsrätt och närstående rättigheter på den digitala inre marknaden och om ändring av direktiven 96/9/EG och 2001/29/EG. Många hävdar att direktivet riskerar att leda till inskränkningar i yttrande-This Spring, a new Copyright Directive has been approved by the European Union, which has drawn a lot of attention. The Directive is formally known as Directive (EU) 2019/790 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market and amending Directives 96/9/EC and 2001/29/EC. Many people claim that this Directive may lead to lim

Industry 4.0 can be described as the next generation-factories that is characterised by putting a high demand for automation and flexible production lines. The proposed way to achieve this goal is through a large number of Industrial IoT devices(IIoT) in the factory, some having high availability- and low-latency requirements. This demands for a software that can monitor and manage the application

Within Social Work in Sweden, there has been a long-established tradition to work cooperatively across organizations to achieve various preventive measures, for instance with juvenile crime issues. The purpose of this study was to investigate how such cooperation across two organizations - the police force and the social services- is perceived by the professionals involved in practice. The method

Uppsatsen innebär ett försök att utreda MER och AMA:s förhållande till AB 04 och hur de spelar in vid fastställande av entreprenadens omfattning. För att utreda frågeställningarna har en rättsdogmatisk metod använts. Den svenska entreprenadrätten har sedan lång tid setts som definierad av standardavtalen Allmänna bestämmelser. I Allmänna bestämmelser anges att entreprenadrättsligatvister ska lösaThe thesis involves an attempt to investigate MER and AMAS’s relationship with AB 04 and which role they play in determining the scope of the contract. The thesis determines the applicable law by using the legal dogmatic method. Swedish construction contract law has for a long period of time been defined by the use of a standard form contract called AB 04. Swedish construction contract law is a d
