During the Age of Mass Migration, 30 million Europeans left their home countries and emigrated to the United States. Sweden had one of the highest out-migration rates of the era. Between 1860 to 1920, around 1.3 million people–a quarter of the population–left Sweden to seek opportunity in the United States. This essay delves into one particular aspect of this historic migration episode. I study t
Popular Abstract in Swedish Under den nuvarande värmeperioden (holocen) som inleddes för ca 11 600 år sedan, har klimatet i den nordatlantiska regionen varierat på både korta och långa tidsskalor. Orsaken till dessa variationer är många och komplexa, men kan till viss del relateras till temporära förändringar i havsströmmar och den atmosfäriska cirkulationen. Den termohalina cirkulationen, som delThe North Atlantic region has experienced significant climate fluctuations during the Holocene. It has been shown that these fluctuations affected the terrestrial environment in Iceland, including its glaciers and ice caps. However, the full Holocene development of Icelandic glaciers, including the large Vatnajökull ice cap and its outlet glaciers, is not fully known. In this thesis, a sediment se
The 18th century witnessed profound changes in the political thinking of Western societies regarding the individual, society and the state. The principle of freedom of religion was confirmed in the American Declaration of Independence in 1776 and in the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen in 1789. A guiding principle was that the civic rights of individuals were not to be de
Summary: The aim of this study was to analyse how the composition and in particular the openess of the present-day landscape is reflected in pollen assemblages from surface sediment in lakes. The study is a continuation of an earlier pilot study including thirteen sites and a first step in an attempt to find a method of quantifying ancient cultural landscape in terms of surface areas from fossil p
On Friday June 10 2016, the Center for Middle Eastern Studies (CMES) at Lund University arranged a seminar devoted to explore refugee experiences among Syrians in the Öresund region. Organizers were CMES researchers Dalia Abdelhady and Joshka Wessels.

A search for flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) tqH interactions involving a top quark, another up-type quark (q = u, c), and a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson decaying into a τ-lepton pair (H → τ + τ −) is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at s = 13 TeV that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb −1 recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron C

By combining data from the Swedish Knee Arthroplasty Register and Swedish census registers we have calculated the past age-specific incidence of primary knee arthroplasties and predicted the demand. During the last 20 years, osteoarthrosis has accounted for the largest increase in number of knee arthroplasties while operations for rheumatoid arthritis remained constant. The mean yearly number of o
In 2007 more than a quarter (26%) of the South African adult population was functionally illiterate. As a result many non-profit organisations (NPOs) in South Africa strive to raise adult literacy levels. Adult illiteracy leads to problems such as, amongst others, high levels of unemployment, poverty and crime.Most NPOs do not practice strategic communication management to build strong, lasting an
Objective: Invasive treatment of intermittent claudication (IC) is commonly performed, despite limited evidence of its cost effectiveness. IC symptoms are mainly caused by atherosclerotic lesions in the superficial femoral artery (SFA), and endovascular treatment is performed frequently. The aim of this study was to investigate its cost effectiveness vs. non-invasive treatment. Methods: One hundre
Objectives To study the value of combining individual- and neighborhood-level sociodemographic data to predict study participation and assess the effects of baseline selection on the distribution of metabolic risk factors and lifestyle factors in the Swedish CardioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS). Methods We linked sociodemographic register data to SCAPIS participants (n = 30,154, ages: 50-64 yea
Bayesian inference under a set of priors, called robust Bayesian analysis, allows for estimation of parameters within a model and quantification of epistemic uncertainty in quantities of interest by bounded (or imprecise) probability. Iterative importance sampling can be used to estimate bounds on the quantity of interest by optimizing over the set of priors. A method for iterative importance samp
Den aisopiska fabeln etablerades som genre i den grekiska antiken och nådde Skandinavien under medeltiden. I svensk kultur upplevde fabeln en storhetstid under den tidigmoderna epoken (1500–1800).

I dialog med ny internationell fabel- och genrefEstablished as a genre in Greek antiquity, the Aesopic fable reached Scandinavia during the Middle Ages. In Sweden, the fable experienced its glory days during the early modern epoch (1500–1800). The monograph Fabelbruk i svensk tidigmodernitet.

Important factors behind high levels of vulnerability and low adaptive capacity to climate variability and change in the developing world are direct reliance on natural resources, poverty and limited abilities to adapt financially and institutionally.

A way to reduce net CO2 emission and circumvent the high particle emissions from compression ignition (CI) engines, while retaining high efficiency, is by utilizing lighter alcohols in the partially premixed combustion (PPC) process. Methanol and ethanol have a very short carbon chain, and form less soot/particulate matter (PM) during combustion compared to diesel fuel. This study analyzes and com
