This article assesses the potential and the limitations of Thailand's proposed policy which would have local governments buy back targeted waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE) from households at designated locations. The proposal relies on the premise that a monetary incentive at the time of disposal is needed to gain participation from households which would otherwise sell to private

The phase behavior of amphiphiles, e.g., lipids and surfactants, at low water content is of great interest for many technical and pharmaceutical applications. When put in contact with air having a moderate relative humidity, amphiphiles often exhibit coexistence between solid and liquid crystalline phases, making their complete characterization difficult. This study describes a (13)C solid-state N

In complex biological or colloidal samples, magnetic relaxation dispersion (MRD) experiments using the field-cycling technique can characterize molecular motions on time scales ranging from nanoseconds to microseconds, provided that a rigorous theory of nuclear spin relaxation is available. In gels, cross-linked proteins, and biological tissues, where an immobilized macromolecular component coexis

Aims: Adverse social factors predict increased mortality. This study aimed to assess the influence of social class and marital status on mortality, adding an adult life course perspective. Methods: In total, 32,907 males and 20,204 females were evaluated based on census data in Malmo, Sweden. Of these subjects, 22,444 males and 10,902 females also took part in health screening. The main outcomes w

Healthy development of children in India is far from ensured. Proximate determinants of poor child health outcomes are infectious diseases and undernutrition, which are linked to socioeconomic status. In low- and middle-income countries, researchers rely on wealth indices, constructed from information on households’ asset ownership and amenities, to study socioeconomic disparities in child health.

Good knowledge on how increasing urbanization affects biodiversity is essential in order to preserve biodiversity in urban green spaces. We examined how urban development affects species richness and total abundance of butterflies as well as the occurrence and abundance of individual species within the Helsinki metropolitan area in Northern Europe. Repeated butterfly counts in 167 separate 1-km-lo

This dissertation is a revisionist study of the early stages of the Chinese Civil War with a focus on the conflict in the Manchurian theatre. The military operations in Manchuria during the late 1940s were pivotal to the outcome of the Chinese Civil War, which in turn determined the political landscape of contemporary China. Clarifying the strategies employed by both sides, this study advances bey

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ämnet för den här avhandlingen är tillverkning och studier av elektroniska komponenter tillverkade av mycket små tråd- och punktformade byggmateriel. Diametern hos en sådan tråd kan vara så liten som 1 nanometer, vilket motsvarar en miljondels millimeter. När komponenter krymps till de här ytterst små dimensionerna uppstår nya fenomen, och parametrar som kan tyckas varaThis thesis describes novel methods for the fabrication of nanometer-scale electronic devices, such as single-electron transistors and resonant tunneling diodes, from wire- and dot-shaped building blocks. The first part of the thesis describes the manipulation of metal nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes using an atomic force microscope. Single-electron transistors were realized by moving nanotubes

Disentangling the factors shaping species distributions remains a central goal in biogeography, ecology and evolutionary biology. The extrinsic pressures that may facilitate range shifts, such as climatic factors or biotic interactions are well known. However, in contrast, the possible intrinsic factors are manifold and hard to generalize across taxa. Recently, several theoretical studies have inv

Background: Long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) improves prognosis in COPD with severe hypoxemia. However, adherence to criteria for eligibility and quality of LTOT is often insufficient and varies between countries. The aim of this study was to evaluate a national structure for prescription and management of LTOT over three decades in Sweden. Methods: The study was a prospective, population-based stu

I detta examensarbete, som skrivits i samarbete med Svenska Turistföreningen (STF), beräknas och utvärderas de växthusgasutsläpp som driften av föreningens fjällstugor, belägna i väglöst land, ger upphov till. Beräkningarna baseras på de fyra fjällstugorna Alesjaure, Sälka, Kårsavagge och Nallo. I studien beräknas det att en gästnatt, det vill säga en övernattning av en person, på en av de studeraThis master thesis was written in collaboration with the Swedish Tourist Association and evaluates the yearly greenhouse gas emissions caused by the management of the association’s mountain huts. The hut’s are situated in roadless land. The calculations are based on the four mountain huts Alesjaure, Sälka, Kårsavagge and Nallo. An overnight stay at one of the studied mountain huts give rise to on
