During the latest years the research on the effects of moisture on clothing system has been boosted. New information has revealed phenomena, e.g. “heat pipe” effect with its condensation-evaporation cycle(s) that has not been considered earlier in prediction of physiological reactions or evaluating clothing properties. Considering the material properties, e.g. the evaporative resistance measuremen
The term ‘strategic use of procurement’ indicates that the procurement (also referred to as sustainable procurement) is about more than just saving money. Other important interests such as social and environmental considerations can be promoted through public procurement. Procurers can, according to newly proposed Directives on public procurement, make better use of public procurement in support o
Many parents perceive the urban environment as hazardous for their children and therefore prescribe and circumscribe young people’s access to the environment (Malone, 2001). Consequently, spontaneous unregulated play in neighbourhood spaces is decreasing as children are primarily encouraged to participate in regulated play environments in their homes, friends houses and commercial facilities. Simu
Popular Abstract in Swedish Innovationer är livsviktiga för de flesta företags långsiktiga tillväxt och överlevnad. Det gäller även livsmedelssektorn i Sverige som här har undersökts med avseende på tre grupper av aktörer: handel, livsmedelsproducenter och förpackningsleverantörer. Målsättningen var att undersöka om det finns ett gap mellan hur dessa olika aktörer ser på innovation och hur de genoThe food sector in Sweden, comprised of retailers, food manufacturers and packaging suppliers, has been investigated, guided by two research questions: What does “innovation” mean to the different actors (i.e. is there a gap in opinions)? How is innovation performed and what are the key issues? But before this research of the present, the past was studied (the author’s licentiate) to identify and
This article examines the emergence of idealism in evolutionary cognitive science by analyzing the conscious realism of the cognitive theorist Donald D. Hoffman and the mathematician Chetan Prakash. Perception is for them not about veridical experience, but rather a mechanism for survival. It helps us survive but does not give us access to reality as such. By relating Hoffman and Prakash's conscio
Under 1980-talet var Sri Lanka ett av de länder som flest barn adopterades internationellt ifrån, med 6815 registrerade adoptioner. Antalet adoptioner har sen dess fallit kraftigt. Under 2010-talet registrerades bara 259 stycken – detta trots den stora mängd barn som fortsatt växer upp på institutioner i landet. Hur kommer detta skifte sig och vad har det inneburit för barns rättigheter och tolkni
This paper analyses the growth-inequality-poverty nexus in Tanzania. We provide a unique long-term study covering six decades of Tanzanian independence and disentangle the competing narratives concerning growth, inequality, and poverty in the country. We do this by carefully assessing the existing–and at times contradictory–data on growth, inequality, and poverty and by introducing the inequality

We consider a fully discretized numerical scheme for parabolic stochastic partial dif- ferential equations with multiplicative noise. Our abstract framework can be applied to formulate a non-iterative domain decompositi

Global agri-food systems are in urgent need of a sustainability transformation guided by best practices of agroecology. The study used the Tool for Agroecological Performance Evaluation (TAPE) to assess the performance of seven market gardens in southern Sweden in comparison to the Swedish horticultural sector. The findings indicate that all participating market gardens could be considered agroeco
While the 8.2 ka abrupt cooling event is increasingly recognised as a major Holocene climatic anomaly, archaeological discussions of its cultural consequences have often been framed in terms of societal distress, including the collapse and abandonment of settlements. However, prehistoric communities must have responded in more diverse ways. This paper investigates the site-based socio-ecological a
The Kammu people are mainly rice farmers and live on mountain slopes in northern Laos. The chapter studies the expressives of the Yùan Kammu dialect from the combined perspectives of linguistics and ethnomusicology. Kammu expressives are derived from monosyllabic roots, which each carry the general meaning of those expressives that are derived from that root. The morphological processes involved i
Anterior cord herniation is due to a ventral displacement of the spinal cord through a defect in the dura and/or arachnoid.1 Though the condition is rare, some case reports are available.1-3 The neurological symptoms can slowly deteriorate over several years.3 A Brown-Séquard-like syndrome is the most common presenting neurological finding.2,4 Asymptomatic cases may be discovered incidentally.4 Ho
A key policy question is whether continued expansion of university education is beneficial for the marginally eligible student. In this paper we exploit an arbitrary university eligibility rule combined with regression discontinuity design to estimate the causal effect of university attendance on healthcare utilization amongst young adults in Sweden. We find that the eligibility rule leads to a cl
The ripeness of fruits is commonly assessed by the visual appearance, but this method is not very accurate and there can be a large variability. We have developed a hand-held sensor based on laser-induced fluorescence to provide more objective guidance. The instrument incorporates a 412 nm continuous wave semiconductor laser and a miniature spectrometer. It was used for monitoring of tropical frui
Fluctuating climate, heat, and drought are expected to considerably impact bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) quality in the coming years and, as wheat is an essential food element worldwide, this will have significant implications for future food security and the global economy. This leads to an urgent need for developing wheat varieties with stable yield and gluten quality. In this study, we invest
Under de senaste 150 åren har det svenska landskapet genomgått mycket stora förändringar. Det har lett till förlust av livsmiljöer för många arter och har haft långtgående konsekvenser för vår inhemska fauna och flora. Många arter har minskat dramatiskt och i vissa fall helt försvunnit.När en art väl har börjat minska finns det många faktorer som kan förstärka den negativa trenden. En individrik p
In this paper, the investment in new desalination capacity, expressed as daily production capacity, was studied as a function of oil production and population increase for a large group of countries for the last 25 years. These countries were selected for their large desalination production and Sweden presented as reference. Oil production correlated well with investments in new desalination capac
