The question of choice is a fundamental issue in the discussion of human mobilities. In the context of natural disaster and resettlement programs, the affected population is reduced to victims devoid of agency, and their movements concluded as passive reactions. However, the post-tsunami mobility behaviour of the families in the Maldives after the devastating 2004 tsunami paints a very different p
Hydrauliska parametrar är viktiga att kunna mäta i samband med stadsplanering, prospektering och för att få fram information om hur en möjlig föroreningstransport genom jordlager och berggrund skulle kunna ske. Slugtest är ett enkelt akvifertest som tar fram värden på formationens genomsläpplighet och har flera fördelar jämfört med andra akvifertester. I denna studie berörs grundvattenrör med liteHydraulic analysis plays a crucial role in urban planning, prospecting and environmetal assess-ments. Slug test is an aquifer test often used by hydrogeologist and engineers to determine the hydraulic conduct-ivity. In this bachelor thesis I discuss aquifers with small diameter piezometers where some of the them are screened across the water table. The essay is conducted in cooperation with the su
The aim of this study was to examine how school counselors in a middle-sized and a small municipality in southern Sweden experienced bullying as a phenomena and how they worked on preventing the problem. We also wanted to examine how the internal and external cooperation worked in the different municipalities. The study was based on semi-qualitative interviews with school counselors on schools wit

After years of neglect, Lebanon is facing the consequences of a struggling water sector. Existing water networks are deficient; water supply continuity is low; most wastewater is discharged into rivers or the Mediterranean Sea without adequate treatment; and inter-agency coordination remains weak and fragmented. In 2000, the government together with international donor agencies initiated a reform
Background: The utility of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) in diagnosing cardiomyopathies (CM) and heritable connective tissue disorders (HCTD) is limited by high costs and ambiguous results. Letting the referring physician decide whom to refer for WGS increases the absolute number of positive patients identified but lowers clinical yield (proportion of patients identified with a pathogenic gene var
Since ancient times, public squares have played a significant role in the social and political life of towns and cities. They were designed as open spaces for public use, allowing people to meet, communicate, and demonstrate, and as centers for commercial and civic culture that reflected historical transformations. However, nowadays, public squares are often nearly abandoned urban voids, rather th
Den digitala marknaden har ställt den konkurrensrättsliga utvecklingen på sin spets. Frågan har uppkommit huruvida nuvarande konkurrensrättsliga regler har förmågan att bevara och skydda konkurrensen och konsumenterna på den digitala marknaden. Detta framför allt med tanke på de digitala jättarnas fram- växt, som exempelvis Google. Denna problematik belystes särskilt i kom- missionens beslut, GoogThe digital market has pushed the development of competition law. The ques- tion has arisen whether current competition rules can preserve and protect competition and consumers in digital markets, especially considering the rise of digital giants like Google. This issue was particularly highlighted in the Commission’s decision in the Google Shopping case. The decision concerned Google’s abuse of d
The aim of this study has been to explore the perceptions of evidence-based practice among social workers along with how they perceive their prerequisites for working according to the evidence-based model. The social workers have been found within the children and family unit of the Swedish social services, and the evidence-based model was compared to that of the Swedish National Board of Health a
The transport sector contributes significantly to air pollution and requires suitable alternatives to help mitigate climate change. In the municipalities of Sjöbo, Svalöv and Tomelilla in Skåne, Sweden, Skånetrafiken is currently running a pilot project for on-demand public transport, called SkåneFlex. This study aims to examine the reasoning behind the design of SkåneFlex and to explore whether i
Vi kan idag se en ökande urbanisering i världen, 2018 bodde 53% av jordens befolkning i städer, en siffra som väntas öka till 60% till år 2030. Samtidigt mänsklighetens utsläpp av växthusgaser gett upphov till ökade temperaturer, som i sin tur leder till förändrade nederbördsmönster, vilka manifesteras i form av bland annat extrema regn. Detta har lett till ett ökat behov av att göra städer mer håThere is an increasing urbanization taking place in the world today, in 2018, 53% of the global population lived in cities, a figure that is expected to rise to 60% by 2030. At the same time, anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gasses give rise to increasing temperatures, which in turn lead to changed precipitation patterns, which manifest in the form of extreme rain events among other phenomena
Climate change, shifting travel patterns, and the growing popularity of Arctic destinations have driven a rapid increase in tourism in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, over the past few decades. Simultaneously, Longyearbyen is at the end of a transition from a coal-mining community toward a tourism-focused town. While previous research on Svalbard has largely focused on environmental sustainability and gov
Bekämpningen av penningtvätt utgör ett centralt samhällsintresse inom Europeiska unionen och har gett upphov till ett omfattande regelverk som ställer långtgående krav på att verksamhetsutövare behandlar och lagrar personuppgifter. Samtidigt har skyddet för den personliga integriteten stärkts genom EU:s allmänna dataskyddsförordning (GDPR). Regelverken är inte direkt motstridiga, men förutsätter eThe fight against money laundering constitutes a central public interest within the European Union and has resulted in an extensive regulatory framework imposing far-reaching obligations on obliged entities to process and retain personal data. At the same time, the protection of personal privacy has been strengthened through the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Although these regulato
Following the outbreak of new media technologies, researchers in museum studies have acknowledged the increasing importance of digital content creation for museums. Today, Social Media provides museums with the opportunity to engage with their audiences beyond museum walls and pursue their organizational mission in innovative ways. Despite a growing interest in the organizational changes that make
Aims: Respondent-driven sampling is a research technique, new to the Scandinavian setting, used in hard-to-reach populations, such as subjects at risk for HIV, including drug users. This study aimed to evaluate the use of respondent-driven sampling originating from syringe exchange clients, as a method to identify 'hidden' drug users without treatment or social service contact. Methods: Nine heroi
Continuously indexed Gaussian fields (GFs) is the most important ingredient in spatial statistical modelling and geo-statistics. The specification through the covariance function gives an intuitive interpretation of its properties. On the computational side, GFs are hampered with the "big-n" problem, since the cost of factorising dense matrices is cubic in the dimension. Although the computational

The imbalance between the supply and demand of ecological products between society and ecosystems is an important cause of a series of water ecological problems, and water ecological restoration projects aim to improve the above supply–demand relationship by means of inputs from the social side. For this reason, this paper takes the Yellow River Delta region as an example to launch a study on the
Biodiversity is increasingly negatively affected by climate warming, making this issue a major conservation concern. Many bird species respond to warming temperatures by shifting distribution ranges, but these shifts often lag behind temperature changes. Protected areas (PAs) can facilitate such shifts, but a growing body of literature suggests that not all PAs facilitate climate warming responses
Identifying flying insects is a significant challenge for biologists. Entomological lidar offers a unique solution, enabling rapid identification and classification in field settings. No other method can match its speed and efficiency in identifying insects in flight. This non-intrusive tool is invaluable for assessing insect biodiversity, informing conservation planning, and evaluating efforts to
