De två Natura-2000 områdena Ravlunda och Revingehed i Skåne, södra Sverige, har genomgått en klimatkänslighetsanalys i denna studie som testade en utvärderingsmetod för relevans att använda inom Länsstyrelsen i Skånes arbete. Analysen gjordes med fokus på ekosystemtjänster identifierad för sanddominerade habitat på de två områdena. Genom användning av en nyligen publicerad report från NaturvårdsveThe two Natura-2000 areas of Ravlunda and Revingehed of Skåne, southern Sweden, have been subject to a climate change vulnerability assessment in this study, which tested an assessment method for relevance for work within the County Administrative Board of Skåne. The analysis was done with focus on ecosystem services found at the sand dominated habitats of the two areas. Using a recently published

The Amazon Rainforest is in grave danger of disappearing for good, due to a number of harmful economic activities, including land conversion for cattle ranching and monoculture, as well as unsustainable and illegal timber production. It has been shown, however, that the private sector has a crucial role in redressing socio-economic problems, causing deforestation and degradation. To illustrate thi

Sökandet efter nedslagskratrar har fått mycket uppmärksamhet sedan 1960 talet och flertalet kratrar över hela jorden har bekräftats sedan dess. Likaså har många strukturer i berggrunden utan känt ursprung uppmärksammats och föreslagits som möjliga nedslagsstrukturer. I Sverige finns ungefär 40 föreslagna potentiella nedslagskratrar. I denna kandidatuppsats studeras elva av dessa; Björkö, Vara, UndThe search of impact craters have recieved a lot of attention since the 1960s and many impact craters on various places on Earth have been recogniced since then. Additionally, many structures in the bedrock without known origin have also recieved attention and been suggested as possible impact structures. In Sweden there are approximately 40 suggested potential impact craters. In this bachelor the

Student housing is an ongoing and ever debated issue. Students often have to pay for inefficient square meters which are both difficult to furnish and lack function. In Helsingborg, the supply of student housing is wide but with varying quality and efficiency. Therefore, future student accommodations in Helsingborg should be carefully planned and adapted to their purpose - with more effective squa

I have conducted a qualitative study based on five adult sober alcoholics’ life stories. The purpose of the study was to explore and gain more knowledge and understanding of the role the social network played for an individual, living a sober life. Furthermore, how “sober alcoholics” find themselves in the community, where alcohol consumption is widely accepted in different social contexts and whe

Because of the industrialization in the late 19th century the amount of waste from private individuals and industries rose steadily as the standard of living improved and consumption grew. Consequently several landfills where everything from household garbage and construction waste, industrial waste and chemicals was deposited developed in each municipality. When legislation concerning landfills g

[Translated title] Supervisor: Annika Capelán Assessor: Eva Johnsson The aim of this study was to provide a closer look at how sexual normality is portrayed on the internet, focusing on a particular website ch

This research proposes that an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the concept of culture and culture change could be beneficial for Sustainable Development. It explores the transferability of the DIKT Learning Model and theory of Creative Populations, originally found in management literature, and applies them to a social change corporation in Medellin, Colombia. The corporation analyzed

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Geoelektriska mätningar med resistivitet och inducerad polarisation (IP) har traditionellt använts för att bland annat hitta berggrundsytor, kartera sprickighet och bedöma deponiers utbredning. Metoden utgår från olika materials olika elektriska egenskaper. I denna studie undersöktes möjligheten att hitta grundvattennivåerna i deponier med denna metod. Vattnet i There is a problem with leachate leakagein the Flishult landfill outside the town of Vetlanda . This means that water that has been in contact with the deposited material is likely to lead contaminants into the surrounding groundwater, causing an environmental impact on the surroundings. This problem is not unique to the Flishult landfill but can be found in many places where there are, e.g., wast

In the E. ON sponsored research project, Distibution LABoratory, at the Department of Industrial Electrical Engineering and Automation at LTH the impact of the increased move towards use of cables in the Swedish distribution grid is examined. The project also built a model of a small distribution grid. The model was used to simulate a Petersen coil earthed grid system. Petersen coil earthing lower

The Archaean Yilgarn craton in Western Australia is a granite greenstone belt with abundant economically important mineral reserves, including several world-class gold deposits such as the giant Kalgoorlie deposit. Structural controls on gold deposition and the fact that most deposits were formed later in the craton’s tectonic history, has resulted in the general acceptance of a late-orogenic str

In carrying out foreign policy in the 21st century, it is indispensable for a global force such as the United States to focus on decisions made by the civil society. Particularly, by implementing foreign policy that balances between hard power and soft power diplomacy, the practices of the new public diplomacy enable nation-states to interact with the public culturally and personally by encouragin

Summary: The aim of this palaeoecological study is to demonstrate and date human impact during the Mesolithic and the Neolithic time in an area considered to be relatively unsuitable for farming and livestock-breeding. The study area is located on the Kullaberg peninsula in northwestern Skåne, South Sweden. The peninsula constitutes a hilly bedrock terrain with Quaternary deposits in the topograph

The main objective of this work was the evaluation of TM (Thematic Mapper) and MSS (Multi Spectral Scanner) data of Landsat 1 and 5 for a large scale forest damage assessment in the black triangle region. The area covers the Krusne Hory and neighboring mountain areas (border area of Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. A temporal comparison of land use of 1975 and 1989 of a sub area and a class

This study explores different modalities of agency that birthing women in Kosovo express when met with a high threat of obstetric violence and structural constraints. Specifically, this study identifies the strategies and tactics women employ during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum to avoid and minimise the risk of obstetric violence in public and private health settings. Moreover, this s

The Garden City, and the architectural streetscape is a master thesis in architecture, completed in the spring semester of 2022 at Lund School of Architecture. Ebenezer Howard introduced the Garden City vision in 1898. Since then, countless neighborhoods, suburbs, and cities have developed inspired by the concept. The purpose of the garden city was by the beginning to raise the standard of living

The rapid increase of asylum-seekers in 2015 overwhelmed the Greek reception system and led to the creation of numerous refugee camps throughout the country. The Sphere Minimum Standards provide globally acknowledged guidance to design and manage these facilities. They designate risk assessments as an essential tool to guarantee a safe environment for Persons of Concern. Yet, exposure to natural h

Thailand is facing with various extreme climate events from flood to drought. As a result of climate change, these events tend to increase in frequency and intensity. The existing water infrastructures and management is showing sign of fragility and incapable of dealing with these challenges. To increase adaptive capacity and tackle current water resource challenges, water management agencies in T

This thesis aims to understand how gender euphoria is constructed by non-binary people, and how these experiences are embedded in ideas of masculinities and femininities. The theoretical point of departure involves the theorization of “doing gender” by West and Zimmerman, concepts from ethnomethodology inspired by Liberman, and finally “performative acts” by Butler. These theoretical points are re
