This thesis explores how ecological themes are represented through local and global perspectives in Juliana Spahr’s ecopoetry, Mikael Kristersson’s Ljusår (2008), and Jiuliang Wang’s documentary Plastic China (2016). By applying ecocritical theory with a focus on glocalization and interconnectedness, the study examines how local environments become metaphors for global ecological crises. Spahr’s

Nyligen upptäcktes välbevarade fossil från tidig silur på Mösseberg i Västergötland, Sverige. Denna studie syftar till att ge en översikt över materialet samt fastställa dess ålder och karaktärisera depositions- och bevaringsmiljö. Även om fossilt material från Västergötland har väckt vetenskapligt intresse under århundraden, är förhållandevis lite känt om regionens siluriska stratigrafi. ProvernaA well-preserved fossil assemblage from the early Silurian has recently been discovered at Mösseberg in Västergötland, Sweden. This study aims to present an initial overview of the findings and determine the age and characteristics of the assemblage and depositional environment. While fossil material from Västergötland has garnered scientific interest for centuries, relatively little is known abou

Wood density is a crucial trait in trees influencing carbon storage in forests, yet dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) neglect its variability under different environmental conditions. For this thesis, I integrated environmentally-dependent wood density into the DGVM LPJ-GUESS by simulating mean annual tree ring density based on temperature variables. The model considers earlywood and latewo

Seagrasses provide valuable ecosystem services, benefitting both marine species and humans by providing coastal protection and erosion control which is significant as 898 million people lived in low-elevation coastal zones in 2020. However, seagrasses worldwide have been declining and in Sweden, the eelgrass Zostera marina has decreased heavily since 1980. One cause for seagrass loss in temperate

The complement system is an ancient component of the immune system, comprising three pathways: classical, lectin and alternative pathways. Central to these pathways is complement component C3, which converges the three pathways. C3 can be enzymatically cleaved into C3a which functions as an anaphylatoxin, and C3b, which functions as an opsonin. Previously, C3 was understood as a serum protein, how

En fungerande stadsbyggnad och översvämningriskhantering i Quezon City, Filippinerna, ett snabbt växande område med omfattande utbredning av informella bosättningar, är avgörande med tanke på den omfattande risken för översvämningar. Detta examensarbete syftar till att bidra till strategier för stadsplanering i översvämningsdrabbade områden genom att integrera en maskininlärningsmodell med stadsbyUrban development and flood risk management in Quezon City, Philippines, a rapidly urbanising area with extensive informal settlements, are critical given the city's vulnerability to flooding. This thesis aims to contribute to the theoretical framework for urban development in flood-prone areas by integrating a machine-learning model with contextual urban planning. The model uses a Random Fore

The choice of which potential evapotranspiration (PET) model to use when estimating streamflow using a rainfall-runoff model have been the topic of many studies. The aim with this thesis was to assess the robustness of six different PET models using HBV-light as rainfall-runoff model over three catchments in Sweden. The robustness was evaluated by using a differential split sample test (DSST) base

Risk-taking behaviours are essential for animals’ survival and are often referred to as variation along the bold-shy continuum in animal personality research. Predation risk is a fundamental driver shaping individuals’ behaviours, and sex often plays an underlaying role in behavioural variation between individuals as well. Home to a post-Pleistocene radiation of Bahamas mosquitofish, Bahamian blue

Biopharmaceuticals are a fast-growing niche in the pharmaceutical industry compared to small molecules. Even though a lot of progress has been made in recent years, the process to take a drug candidate to clinical trials can be lengthy and the selection process of high producing stable clones can be an arduous process. In this master thesis the design of new expression vectors for the production

Agricultural intensification is seen as a major threat to global biodiversity. Semi-natural grasslands play an important role in maintaining biodiversity in agricultural landscapes. Biodiversity and community structure in semi-natural grasslands depends not only on local management but also on the surrounding land-use. Further knowledge on landscape-scale effects would help improving the managemen

The Swedish Government announced that coming fall of 2022 the school curriculum will change significantly in its approach to sexual education to include subjects such as consent, sexuality and relationships, as well as critical conversations about representation of sex in different forms of media, including pornography. To combat children's exposure to porn, child rights activists are calling

The human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that is involved in many cellular pathways. The HER2 locus is amplified in 12-21% of all breast cancers and is associated with poor prognosis. The introns of HER2 contain two non-coding RNAs: a microRNA (miRNA) named mir-4728 and a box C/D snoRNA-like molecule thus far named snoID_0714. In this study, a list of targe

This thesis views Sankt Lars begravningsplats (cemetery) as a deathscape where histories of institutionalization, social exclusion, and neoliberal expansion are spatially materialized in the cemetery’s ecology. Tied to the former Sankt Lars asylum on the margins of Lund, Sweden, the cemetery embodies the intersections of human and nonhuman forces where ecological transformations intertwine with cu

State-controlled social media platforms can result in authoritarian soft power assets when the users' mediated communication extends across borders. Especially in times of hostile conflict and narrative divide, these transnational communication networks – without the coordination of the authoritarian state – can promote authoritarian narratives to non-domestic audiences when multilingual users

Critical scholarship has increasingly questioned the effectiveness of external menstrual health interventions in the Global South, often highlighting their lack of cultural sensitivity and potential to reinforce menstrual stigma. These critiques raise concerns not only about individual well-being, but also about broader questions of gendered inequality. Although such initiatives frequently center
