Quantifying the water exchange between a forest stand and the atmosphere is of major interest for the prediction of future growth conditions and the planning of silvicultural treatments. In the present study, we address (i) the uncertainties of sap flow estimations at the tree level and (ii) the performance of the simulation of stand transpiration. Terrestrial laser scan images (TLS) of a mature b
Since the end of the 1990s, the number of fires increases dramatically in the city of Malmö. Between 1998 and 2009, the increase was 215 percent. A growing number of the fires are intentional and take place outdoors. Most of the fires are also concentrated in a limited number of neighborhoods. Furthermore, many schools are affected. Between 2000 and 2011, nearly 360 intentional fires occurred in s
Europeiska unionens (EU) huvudmålsättning är att fri rörlighet av varor, personer, tjänster och kapital ska råda inom unionen. Rättsenigheten inom EU har dock brister och det har observerats att det för en väl fungerande inre marknad hade varit behjälpligt med harmonisering av medlemsstaternas civillagstiftning. För detta ändamål har Europeiska kommissionen initierat utformningen av en gemensam reOne of the main goals of the European Union (EU) is to guarantee the free movement of goods, capital, services and people. Divergences in national contract laws are seen as an impediment to this free movement. To overcome this hurdle scholars clearly suggest that the internal market would benefit if the EU had harmonized the private law. The European Commission (EC) has therefore initiated the cre
Sexualbrotten i svensk rätt kräver idag att gärningsmannen har använt någon typ av våld eller hot, eller har utnyttjat ett hjälplöst tillstånd. År 2003 kom emellertid Europadomstolens avgörande i Bulgariendomen, i vilken kan utläsas att varje sexuell handling som begås utan samtycke ska vara straffbar. Sedan dess har det i Sverige livligt debatterats om huruvida domen innebär att den svenska lagenThe sexual offences in Swedish law of today require that the perpetrator has used violence or threats, or that he has exploited a helpless state. However, in 2003 the European Court of Human Rights delivered a judgment in the case of M.C v. Bulgaria, which stated that any non-consensual sexual act must be punishable. There has been a legal discussion in Sweden ever since, regarding whether this ju
My research is concerned with the co-optation of sustainability, feminism, and social justice within and by the fast fashion industry in Sweden. This stems from a desire to understand the acceleration of sustainability discourse and narratives built by brands (through communication, advertisement, marketing, and sustainability reporting) and how this shapes consumption. I argue that the dominating
ABSTRACT: We plan to conduct a case-control study to investigate whether exposure to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) increases the risk of stroke. In case-control studies, selective participation can lead to bias and loss of efficiency. A two-phase design can reduce bias and improve efficiency by combining information on the non-participating subjects with information from the participating subjects. In ou
Popular Abstract in Swedish Reklamen är ett oundvikligt inslag i vår vardagsmiljö och en viktig del av vår dagliga massmediekonsumtion. I den här studien har jag använt mig av tre italienskspråkiga reklambudskap för olivolja (Carapelli), pasta (Voiello) och kaffe (Lavazza) . I syfte att kunna belysa vilken viktig roll mottagarens sociokulturella bakgrund och encyklopediska kunskapsnivå spelar för The aim of this study is to describe how Italian advertising for olive oil, pasta and coffee reflects traditions, customs and culturally specific patterns regarding the ways in which these products are used in Italy, and how these culturally specific patterns are interpreted by native readers and non-native readers (Swedish students). The study is based on 22 Italian and 22 Swedish interpretations
Popular Abstract in Swedish I alla flercelliga organismer behövs utbyte av information mellan cellerna, som bygger upp kroppen. För detta ändamål är cellerna försedda med små antenner, som kan ta emot signaler och kallas därför receptorer. Receptorer kan vara uppbyggda på olika sätt. De flesta receptorer slingrar sig sju gånger genom membranet och har ett gemensamt sätt att fortleda signaler till Seven-transmembrane, G-protein coupled receptors play a central role in physiology since they facilitate cell communication in multicellular organisms by recognition of a broad range of ligands. They also represent important drug targets. Unfortunately, for many of these receptors the endogenous ligands, and, hence, their physiological functions, remain to be identified. These receptors are usuall
Popular Abstract in Swedish Öbiogeografi och populationsdifferentiering hos Skyros murödla Hur den fantastiska variationen som finns i naturen bildas är en fråga som länge fascinerat biologer. För mer än 150 år sedan inledde två välkända biologer, Charles Darwin och Alfred Russel Wallace, en brevväxling som skulle komma att bli startskottet för ett paradigmskifte. De hade båda fått idén om naturlIslands are cradles for new biodiversity and provide natural laboratories for the study of population divergence. In my thesis, I investigated the role of different evolutionary processes in the population divergence in the Skyros wall lizard (Podarcis gaigeae), a species where islet populations have strongly diverged morphologies. I used replicate islet populations and their respective most proxi
Popular Abstract in Swedish Dagens industriella system är inte långsiktigt hållbara. För detta behövs bland annat fundamentala förändringar av hur samhällets resurser används. Detta gäller den totala volymen som förbrukas men också vilka ämnen som sätts i omlopp i samhället. Därutöver behövs ett mer rättvist utnyttjande av dessa resurser. Industriell ekologi är den vetenskap som studerar de förändToday's industrial systems are regarded to have unsustainable characteristics. In order to acquire a more sustainable state, fundamental changes are needed in the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the resource flows associated with such systems. These need to go hand in hand with a more equitable distribution of the benefits and burdens associated with such resource use. The identification a
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om hur radiovågor tar sig fram i miljöer där saker som hus, väggar och fönster är i vägen. Framför allt ligger fokus på hur signalen från en sändare placerad utomhus kan nå fram till en mobil terminal (t. ex. en mobiltelefon) som befinner sig inomhus. Hur mycket signalen dämpas när den passerar väggen är av stor betydelse när man ska avgöra hur långThis thesis deals with radio wave propagation in environments where the propagation is severely influenced by surrounding objects, mainly walls and other building structures. As an introduction, a brief description is given on propagation terms like loss, delay and dispersion along with system functions relevant for the topic. The focus is then placed on propagation from an outdoor transmitter to
I svensk rätt finns bestämmelser som berör gärningsbeskrivningen i 30:3 RB och 45:4 RB. Det första lagrummet stadgar att gärningsbeskrivningen utgör ramen för domstolens prövning. Det andra lagrummet stadgar vilket innehåll en gärningsbeskrivning ska ha. Frågan hur preciserad den information som ges i gärningsbeskrivning ska vara har länge varit omdiskuterad. Kraven på gärningsbeskrivningens precIn Swedish law, the provisions regarding the indictment are found in 30:3 RB and 45:4 RB. The first provision states that the indictment serves as a foundation of the court´s trial. The second provision establishes what specific information the indictment should contain. The question of how accurate the information provided in the indictment must be has long been up for discussion. The requiremen
Optical spectroscopy is commonly used in technology and science today. The presence and concentration of a substance can be determined by its spectral signature, the typical wavelengths that are absorbed (or emitted) by the atoms or molecules. Standard absorption spectroscopy requires that the substance is clear and that the optical path-length is known to obtain quantitative information. Unfortun
Some forests are burning in the US, the North of Italy gets flooded, and early spring days start to feel like midsummer. But it seems more important what kind of lunch to have for Tuesday, or which coffee blend is best for the new espresso machine. What makes people really care about climate change, not just in terms of awareness, but emotionally? This thesis aims to explore the motifs behind and
This thesis explores the application of machine learning techniques to improve the diagnosis of bloodstream infections (BSIs) using tabular data extracted from Swedish electronic health records maintained by Region Skåne. BSIs are associated with high mortality rates, especially when diagnosis and treatment are delayed. Traditional diagnostic methods like blood cultures are time-consuming and can
Den tekniska utvecklingen har ändrat hur människor kommunicerar med och om varandra. Den har också fört med sig nya former av övergrepp, däribland så kallade bildbaserade sexuella övergrepp. Begreppet bildbaserade sexuella övergrepp innefattar alla former av framställande och/eller spridande av privata, sexuella bilder utan samtycke från den avbildade. Exempel på sådana övergrepp är ”hämndporr”, sTechnological developments have changed the way people communicate with and about each other. It has also brought with it new forms of abuse, including so-called image-based sexual abuse. Image-based sexual abuse includes all forms of creation and / or distribution of private, sexual images without the consent of the person depicted. Examples of such abuse is “revenge porn”, stealth photography, u
I takt med att andelen variabel förnybar energi ökar i det svenska elsystemet krävs nya lösningar för att hantera utmaningar kopplade till intermittens, nätstabilitet och ekonomisk lönsamhet. Batterilagringssystem (BESS) lyfts fram som en av de mest lovande lösningarna för att möta dessa utmaningar. Detta examensarbete undersöker den tekniska och ekonomiska genomförbarheten av att integrera BESS mAs the share of variable renewable energy (VRE) increases in the Swedish electricity system, new solutions are needed to address challenges related to intermittency, grid stability, and economic viability. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) have been identified as one of the most promising solutions to meet these challenges. This master’s thesis investigates the technical and economic feasibili
