Evidence about the environmental impacts of shared mobility is fragmented and scattered. In this article a systematic literature review is presented. The review focuses on assessments that use Life-Cycle Assessment to quantify the environmental impacts of car sharing, carpooling, bikesharing, and scooter/moped sharing. The results of these assessments were analyzed, as well as the factors that inf
Objective: To investigate whether tumor deposits (TDs) in rectal cancer are associated withincreased recurrence risk and decreased survival.Summary background data: Tumor deposits (TDs) are considered a risk factor forrecurrence after colon cancer resection and presence of TDs prompts adjuvant chemotherapy.The prognostic relevance of TDs in rectal cancer requires further exploration.Methods: All p
Agricultural management significantly affects insects, especially pollinators, which are crucial for crop pollination and biodiversity. In agricultural landscapes, various factors spanning different spatial scales are known to affect pollinator health, which, in turn, can influence pollination services. However, the importance of these factors in driving the health and performance of different pol

CD4 tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) are crucial adaptive immune components involved in preventing influenza A virus (IAV) infection. Despite their importance, their physiological role in the upper respiratory tract, the first site of contact with IAV, remains unclear. Here, we find that, after IAV infection, antigen-specific CD4 TRM persist in the nasal tissue (NT) compartment after infection
Global biodiversity loss threatens ecological stability and human well-being. Biodiversity credits(biocredits) have emerged to address the funding gap for conservation, but may overlook local values and uses of nature, which are vital for sustaining cultural identities, livelihoods, and long-term stewardship of ecosystems. This thesis, grounded in the Plural Valuation of Nature framework, explores
This thesis investigates how human rights-based approaches (HRBAs) to disaster risk reduction mediate the relationship between international human rights law and local practice in the Philippines. It explores the processes of “vernacularization” and bottom-up influence. The former relates to adapting international human rights norms to local settings. The latter refers to local experiences and pra
Wind energy has not been able to diffuse widely in the Netherlands, despite the great history of harnessing wind power. To understand the factors responsible for the slow diffusion of wind energy in the Netherlands, a qualitative study has been performed through semi-structured interviews. Drawing on insights from regime influences, this study has applied the multi-level framework by Geels (2012)
The thesis aims at understanding local forms of governance and the relationship with representational democracy. The object of study is Malmo city and its participation in a network consisting of larger cities, called Eurocities. The theoretical base is gathered from the governance field, more particularly governance network and multilevel governance theories. The use of networks and lobbying pose
In this essay I study the democracy enhancing projects on the municipal level in four different cities. The purpose is to determine how the local governments respond to the outer pressure to supplement the traditional democratic forms with new ones that will allow the citizens to participate more extensively in the democratic process. The ideas of increased public participatory have become trendy
The phenomenon where subnational governments are reaching out for collaboration with external actors in a horizontal dimension are nowadays a common subject for research in local government studies. By examining the transnational organization Greater Copenhagen & Skåne Committee (GCSC), this study aims to develop a further understanding of why subnational governments are joining different kind
This thesis is a historical anthropology of Uyghur people’s environmental perception, exploring the Uyghur people’s dwelling experiences in the oasis-desert landscape of southern Xinjiang during the early 20th century. Through the insights derived from historical anthropology and local knowledge, this study applies field visit and documents research. Multiple materials are covered in this study, i
Payments for watershed services (PWS) are intended to provide incentives to land users to adopt sustainable land management practices. They are also increasingly viewed as having positive impacts on the livelihood of local communities around protected areas. The St. Paul River, located in the St. Paul River basin, is the main source of potable water and hydroelectricity to Monrovia, a city with ab
We consider the problem of spectral analysis of signals composed of sums of multiple amplitude modulated, possibly harmonically related, sinusoids using a sparse approach. By separating the nonlinear frequency variables using a dictionary of possible frequency components as well as a spline basis for the amplitude modulation, results in a convex criterion which can be efficiently solved without
Openness - Difference - Community Architecture is a spatial matter and deals primarily with the qualities in and of the everyday spaces where our lives play out/ take place. This exhibition shows different ways of dealing with the concept of dissonance in architecture through student projects from the School of Architecture at Lund University. Students are inspired to investigate, develop and desi

Abstract The aim of this essay is to analyse the effects of women's representation on actual political outcome. Quantitative method and materials are used to study the consequences of women's political participation in Swedish municipals. Many theorists think that women have special interests, different from men?s, which is also the belief of this essay. This political interest is here d
White- and blue collar workers traditionally belong to different unions and, therefore, are covered by different collective agreements. Collective agreements for different employee categories create internal divisions, which mean that white collar workers are not obliged to do work that falls under a blue collar agreement and reversed. Historically the difference between white- and blue collar wor
Ageism is a social problem that has harmful effects on the wellbeing of older people and needs to be tackled. It is pervasive and evident in the media (e.g., films, television, print and social media). Despite the fact that non-individual actors have adopted social media on a large scale in contemporary society, the social media representation of older people generated by those actors has remained
Overview: Prostate cancer (PC)is the most common cancer in Sweden, and the leading cause of cancer death. Positronemission tomography with x-ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is an important imagingmethod for many cancers. A group of PET radiopharmaceuticals known as PSMA(prostate specific membrane antigen) ligands has been introduced for imaging ofPC. This thesis investigates aspects of the ligand
