In recent years the role of partnerships has become a popular approach in the crime prevention area where it is argued that crime is a multifaceted problem that requires work from several actors to be solved effectively. However, despite the increasing popularity of partnerships there is a lack of research that explains the effects that comes from this work. This paper is written in collaboration
Master thesis: Evaluation of multiple gridded root zone soil moisture products in Europe using in-situ measurements from ICOS stations When: Spring 2025 What: Soil moisture is a critical component in the global water cycle. Reliable estimation of soil moisture is essential for various applications, including drought monitoring, water resource management, precision irrigation, and forecasting crop

The majority of herbivorous insects are specialized in host use. Even among insects that use many hosts, local specialization is common with a single host plant often being used in any given locality. Here, we establish such a pattern for the European swallowtail butterfly, Papilio machaon. We sampled larvae on five different natural hosts at eight sites in Sweden, each locality showing local mono
Local treatment of metastases such as metastasectomy or radiotherapy remains controversial in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma. To investigate the benefits and harms of various local treatments, we did a systematic review of all types of comparative studies on local treatment of metastases from renal cell carcinoma in any organ. Interventions included metastasectomy, radiotherapy m
Water security offers to the local population an adequate quality and quantity of water for health, economy, livelihoods and ecosystems. Hence, achieving basic levels of water security should be a priority in areas where access to fresh water is scarce. The Punata alluvial fan (Bolivia) is a semiarid zone and an important agricultural zone, where the main source of water is groundwater. Therefore,

Climate change is exponentially becoming one of the most pressing issues of our time. While it is an issue that plaques the international community it is an issue that needs to be addressed on all levels. Local government has been highlighted as the level closest to the people and is uniquely positioned to instigate a range of activities that directly address climate change and sustainability. Thi
My master’s thesis project is an exploration of how a new distributon model could be implemented in a swedish local food chain in order to make local food accessible and attractive to a larger group of people. The interest in local food is increasing rapidly in Sweden. Farmers are turning directly to consumers for increased profit and less pressure from the industry. At the same time consumers ar
A non-local gradient-based damage formulation within a geometrically non-linear setting is presented. The hyperelastic constitutive response at local material point level is governed by a strain energy which is additively composed of an isotropic matrix and of an anisotropic fibre-reinforced material, respectively. The inelastic constitutive response is governed by a scalar [1–d]-type damage formu
This thesis analyzes the effects of mountain tourism on local people and communities in Nepal with a focus on three main questions: the equity of mountain jobs, the impacts of Western mountaineering’s dominance on local cultures, and the respect and lack of respect for local workers' lives. Despite repeated accounts of precarious and dangerous working conditions the adventure and mountain tour
Plant-pollinator interactions are considered one of the primary factors driving the large diversity in floral traits. Adaptive floral trait diversification occurs when different pollinators show preference for different floral phenotypes imposing selection on, and potentially generating local adaptation, of floral traits in populations that interact with different insect communities. Plants in gen
The decentralization of fiscal responsibilities in China has strengthened economic development and enhanced local public management. However, due to fiscal competition, local governments that are fiscally constrained tend to neglect environmental standards in favour of economic growth. This study researches how outcomes of fiscal federalism in China, measured by budgetary ratios of gross regional
Summary The purpose of the equality initiative of the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts was to investigate and analyse the study and work environment at the faculty as a whole and to examine more closely the relationship between students and staff. Based on the investigation and analysis, recommendations for future work have been proposed. The recommendations of the equality initiative are inten

This paper contributes to the discussion about the importance of different energy community (EC) characteristics. Based on a questionnaire to the members of solar ECs in Sweden, it investigates (1) to what extent EC members agree with the established view of the “ideal” energy community, as described in previous literature, and (2) to what extent the studied ECs match the characteristics of such a
Question: Under what circumstances are local communities and metacommunities phylogenetically clustered, overdispersed or random assemblages in terms of phylogenetic relatedness? Methods: An individual-based eco-evolutionary model was used to explain the link between system properties, ecological and evolutionary processes, and phylogenetic patterns in a spatially explicit competitive metacommunit
