In an era of global change, understanding available water resources is increasingly important. In Sweden, this challenge has intensified due to climate change driven pressures and rising water demand, yet suitable tools for assessing water storage remain limited. This study presents a novel approach for evaluating surface water storage using a modified Australian Water Resources Assessment Landsca
Underhåll bidrar väsentligt till byggnaders klimatpåverkan. För att beräkningar av klimatpåverkan över hela livscykeln ska bli träffsäkra, bör antaganden som används i beräkningarna baseras på verifierade fakta.Detta projekt har behandlat frågor kopplade till underhåll av tegelfasader, med fokus på omfogningsintervall för tegelskalmurar från 1960-talet och senare. Projektet har även berört frågan
The evolving security landscape has renewed attention to integrate military and civil defence and preparedness into spatial planning. For decades, risk management in spatial planning has focused on natural hazards and accidents, typically disregarding antagonistic threats. The current geopolitical tensions demand a broader perspective that includes actor-driven threats to infrastructure and societ
A key consideration in the design of a new industrial site is the spatial arrangement of units with respect to required safety distances. Safety distance requirements are intended to reduce the risk of hazardous events escalating from their origin to other units as well as to limit the damage to particularly vulnerable targets (e.g., control rooms), and are typically based on industrial standards
This article analyses how experiences of state-sanctioned violence in Turkey are shaped, conveyed and renegotiated in Alevi life stories. Drawing on personal accounts, it exami-nes how individual experiences of violence are interwoven with collective narratives of persecution, marginalisation and resistance. The study focuses in particular on two in-terviewees, Berfin and Ahmet, whose stories illu
This progress report presents the results from the first phase of the research project Not my responsibility (NoMR), running from December 2022 to September 2024. The project investigates how Swedish communities can strengthen preparedness and resilience to wildfires by developing a shared understanding of hazard, exposure, vulnerability, and responsibility across stakeholders. During this period,
Lake Titicaca in South America is highly sensitive to climatic variability, making it particularly vulnerable to climate change and raising concerns about long-term drying. Fluctuations in lake-water-levels (LWLs) can trigger cascading impacts across the downstream Titicaca-Desaguadero-Poopó-Salares (TDPS). This study evaluates the dependence of Lake Titicaca’s water level on air temperature and p

Liquidity constraints are often seen as a barrier to entrepreneurship, with many relying on personal or informal capital to start a business. This paper examines whether increased access to equity ─ via rising value of owner-occupied housing ─ affects the likelihood of business entry. Using detailed Swedish tax return data and exploiting the 2008 property tax reform as a natural experiment, we ana
Ai Xiaoming: A Chinese Woman Intellectual examines the construction and transformation of intellectual identity in modern China through the life and work of Ai Xiaoming, foregrounding how women intellectuals negotiate public engagement under pervasive political, institutional, technological, and gendered constraints.Tracing shifts and overlaps among public intellectuals, academics, citizen intelli
