The use of picture storybooks has the potential to foster children’s environmental awareness and promote behavioural change, but little is known about their connection to the local context, particularly in Vietnam. This thesis presents a qualitative content analysis of sixteen children’s picture storybooks with environmental themes written by Vietnamese authors and illustrators, examining how they

After five years, the capacity development program Innovation in Governance for Urban Nature-Based Solutions, funded by The Swedish Institute Public Sector Innovation Programme, has come to an end, but it’s legacy thrives in various ways. The program Innovation in Governance for Urban Nature-Based Solutions has been running for five consecutive years, 2020-2025 and has engaged public administratio

English is widely recognized as the language of science, and English-language publications (ELPs) are rapidly increasing. It is often assumed that the number of non-ELPs is decreasing. This assumption contributes to the underuse of non-ELPs in conservation science, practice, and policy, especially at the international level. However, the number of conservation articles published in different langu
Plants release to the atmosphere reactive gases, so-called volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The release of VOCs from vegetation is temperature-dependent and controlled by vegetation composition because different plant species release a distinct blend of VOCs. We used modelling approaches on ecosystem VOC release data collected across the Arctic, which is experiencing both rapid warming and veget
The Lanna area in the province of Närke, south-central Sweden, hosts a succession of cool-water carbonate strata that are largely devoid of tectonic and diagenetic alteration, and span the Floian through lower Darriwilian Global stages (Ottenbyan–Kundan Regional stages). In this study we assess the integrated biostratigraphic and chemostratigraphic framework for the Ordovician sequence at Lanna, u
Urbanisation drives overall declines in insect pollinators. Although urban green spaces can provide suitable habitat for pollinators much remains to be learned about how urban landscapes either promote or negatively impact pollinators. We investigated how backyard design, local (100 m) and landscape (500 m) scale vegetation cover and human population density were associated with non-eusocial nativ
The low-carbon benefits and emissions savings from circular economy (CE) strategies are not yet well understood, yet are crucial for global development within Planetary Boundaries. Using the mineral fraction of waste incinerator bottom ash (MIBA) as construction material in road construction is one application of a CE strategy that could lead to environmental gains by substituting energy-intensive
The aim of the present study was to analyse quantitatively, on a cat gastrocnemius muscle preparation in vivo, the effects of local angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition by enalaprilat on total regional vascular resistance (tone) and its distribution to the large-bore arterial resistance vessels (> 25 microns), the small arterioles (< 25 microns) and the veins. Associated effects on capil
The objective of this study was to investigate the correlation between local myocardial function estimates from CT and myocardial strain from tagged MRI in the same heart. Accurate detection of regional myocardial dysfunction can be an important finding in the diagnosis of functionally significant coronary artery disease. Tagged MRI is currently a reference standard for noninvasive regional myocar
Background: The processes leading to the diversity of over 7000 present-day languages have been the subject of scholarly interest for centuries. Several factors have been suggested to contribute to the spatial segregation of speaker populations and the subsequent linguistic divergence. However, their formal testing and the quantification of their relative roles is still missing. We focussed here o
Local agri-environmental schemes, including hedgerows, flowering strips, organic management, and a landscape rich in semi-natural habitat patches, are assumed to enhance the presence of beneficial arthropods and their contribution to biological control in fruit crops. We studied the influence of local factors (orchard management and adjacent habitats) and of landscape composition on the abundance
In order to develop new pharmaceuticals, to optimize pharmacotherapy and secure patient safety, documentation of the properties of pharmaceutical formulations is a most important process. A significant practical problem associated with pre-clinical evaluation of lipophilic substances with pharmacological properties is their low aqueous solubility. The overall aim of this thesis was to develop te
Universities are playing an increasingly central role in advancing sustainability at the local, regional and national scale through cross-sector collaborations. Accompanying the launch of Future Earth, interest is mounting in the co-design and co-production of knowledge and solutions for advancing global sustainability, particularly in urban areas. Place-based university partnerships appear as par
1. Co-flowering plant species often interact through shared pollinators, with effects ranging from positive (facilitation) to negative (competition). It remains unclear how this variation relates to variation in floral density, floral trait distinctiveness, and local environmental conditions. We studied the effect of grazer exclusion, a proposed local management strategy, on pollinator-mediated pl
This thesis aims to unveil existing differences when it comes to the placement of the City Archive within the structural frames of the Swedish municipal governance. Neo- institutionalism and Scandinavian institutionalism have been applied, with the perspective of Terry Cook’s ideas about archival paradigms in archival science, with a focus on outreaching activities. Swedish local governance re
This study examines how tourism affects and reshapes residents’ identities and sense of place in the Sanno-chiku of Takayama City in Gifu Prefecture, Japan. This study focuses on residents’ lived experiences and discusses tourism through the ideas and concepts of place, sense of place, identity, mobility, and commodification. This study asks two research questions: 1) How does tourism shape local
This thesis explores discursive constructions of Sub-Saharan African female authors’ identities. Although the global publishing world brings local literature to a global audience, enabling local authors to profit from and operate within a larger market, it nevertheless creates a hegemonic understanding of local authors based on postcolonial ideas of the ‘Other’. Considering colonial patterns of ho
