Palsa mires are typical wetland landscapes of the Arctic regions, consisting of mosaics of palsas (raised formations of peat and permafrost) and shallow ponds, all embedded in wet mires. These heterogeneous habitats support rich and abundant wader populations, which breed there during the short Arctic summer. Although being threatened by climate change, relatively little is known about the ecologi
Job satisfaction is a complex concept that has mainly been investigated in a quantitative nature from several perspectives. Most past studies have focused solely on investigating full-time employees quantitatively, without taking into account other employment types such as part-time student employees, or other methods of data collection. Additionally, a lack of studies exist focusing on comparing
Green energy defaults (where the uptake of renewable energy is promoted among households by opt-out tariffs) are gaining increasing interest with policy makers, due to the high enrolment rates shown in (experimental) studies. Such default choices are often justified on normative and behavioural grounds as although consumers express a desire and willingness to pay for green energy, they often fail
Bathing water is of great concern as almost all bodies of water in Sweden today are affected by human activities. Usage of models for bathing water quality may give the possibility to assess and evaluate short-term contamination. The main objective of this thesis was to develop and evaluate a script for degradation of the faecal indicator bacteria Escherichia coli, E. coli, in an aquatic environme
Wine production has been demonstrated to negatively impact on the environment in a number of ways, threatening the well being of ecosystems and a sustainable future of the industry. With a general need for reducing environmental impacts; optimization of water resources has been identified the most critical environmental aspect in relation to wine production. Yet, several studies point towards inef
The failure or flourishing of companies in their core businesses can often be attributed to events and developments rooting outside their focus of attention. Many research streams are concerned with early detection, interpretation and acting upon these weak signals from companies’ peripheries - with Peripheral Vision by Schoemaker & Day (2006) being one of the most systematic approaches. Due t
The transport sector is one of many markets facing new challenges in the pursuit of reduced greenhouse gas emissions. The people at Volvo Powertrain in Malmö are continuously working to develop new and improved techniques that are able to live up to the ever-increasing legislations. A well performing turbocharger is an essential part of the combustion engine in order to reduce the fuel consumption
The purpose of this study is to examine if brand-context congruence has an effect on customer-based brand equity and whether brand image impacts this relationship. The relationship between an ad and the surrounding context, so called context congruence, has gained a lot of attention. This as it has been shown to generate beneficial outcomes for brands, such as better brand recall, recognition, and
Recycling reduces the need for new raw materials and greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, the new waste legislation from the EU and the Swedish government imposes higher recycling requirements on Swedish municipalities. Starting from January 1, 2024, it will be mandatory for all EU member states to separately collect food waste through curbside collection. The Swedish government has also decided
Background: Studies have put spinal bifida which Myelomeningocoel (MMC) is a form at 6.1 per 10,000 births in Sweden. Other evaluations have pointed that disabilities could pose a burden on families despite the social net available within the Swedish society. It has been reported that depression, musculoskeletal disorders, and frequent health care visits are often likely to be reported in parents
Utrymning i sjukhus ställer speciella krav på brandsystem och byggnader då sjukhus ofta är stora och komplexa byggnader med många människor med olika förutsättningar. Där befinner sig personer i alla åldrar, personer med diverse nedsatt rörlighetsförmåga samt nedsövda personer som behöver assistans av anställda för att kunna utrymma byggnaden. Patienter som behöver assistans vid transport kan ta eEmergency evacuation in hospitals sets special demands on fire protection systems and the construction of the building since hospitals often are large and complex buildings. People and patients of all ages, with reduced mobility, and anesthetized people who are not capable to evacuate without assistance are often present. The procedure of evacuating a hospital is therefore not an easy task. The pu
Tropical forests are of great importance to all living-beings due to their high biodiversity and the valu-able resources, such as food and fuel, they provide. In addition, tropical trees sequester a high amount of carbon and consequently over half of the global forest carbon stock can be found in the tropics. Climate change, however, might weaken this carbon sink and possibly result in tropical fo
Ecosystem services from forests provide society with a multitude of benefits. However, current research shows that in Swedish forests aspects of ecosystem services have a status ranging from “moderate” to “inadequate”. The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency set up environmental quality objectives (EQOs) specifically with the aim of identifying environmental problems that need to be addressed

Radiotherapy is commonly used for cancer treatment, given to approximately half of all cancer patients in Sweden. Despite its widespread usage, there is currently no non-invasive and reliable imaging method that can identify regions of radiation resistance. These regions may be identified by hypoxia, given that radiobiological research has demonstrated a significant correlation between oxygen leve
The decline of bees, such as bumblebees, over the last decades raises concerns as they are key pollinators in both agricultural and natural ecosystems. One proposed cause for the decline of wild bees is competition for food resources with managed honeybees. Detrimental effects of competition can result where co-existing species exhibit a high degree of shared resource use (i.e., niche overlap). Th

Öga för öga, tand för tand är en straffrättslig princip som myntades av kung Hammurabi i Babylonien kring år 1700 före Kristus genom Hammurabis lag. Principen om öga för öga, tand för tand innebär att den som orsakat skada ska lida samma skada. Svensk straffrätt har gått från resonemanget att ”ont ska botas med ont” till straff och skadestånd i pengar och därför finns inte principen om öga för ögaChapter 5 article 2 of the Property Formation Act reads that the person who forfeitsland shall be compensated with land primarily. This means that the principal rule isthat land shall be compensated with land, but when this is not deemed appropriated compensation in money is acceptable. Furthermore, the paragraphmeans that the Surveying Authority (LM) may decide against the land owners wish that c
This master thesis in library and information science is centered around two reading circles taking place at the libraries of Swedish upper secondary schools. The aim of the thesis is to study how the participants (ages 16-18) in the reading circles reflect on their own reading practices and their identities as readers. One main point of the thesis is that reading circles are forms of reading comm
