Climate and vegetation growth of an area are interrelated processes; both take place on small to global scales. However, climate change and variability impacts on vegetation in most places in the world including Tanzania is of great concern since vegetation supports many socio-economic sectors, and plays a crucial role in atmospheric greenhouse gas moderation. This study aims at investigating the
The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the possibilities and challenges of certification for obtaining sustainable tourism. On the basis of the purpose, I have designed two research questions. 1.Which are the possibilities of certification? 2.Which are the challenges of certification? My problem approach is descriptive and my aim with the thesis is to explain “how things are” at a certain time a
Detta examensarbete är gjort i syfte att undersöka gröna tak som en alternativ taktäckning. Vi har undersökt de vanligaste orsakerna till varför gröna tak väljs bort, fördelar med gröna tak samt dess konstruktion. Gröna tak har funnits i olika former sedan 900-talet före Kristus. Då bestod takträdgårdarna till största delen av träd, buskar och klängväxter i krukor. I Skandinavien byggde man många This thesis is made in order to review green roofs as an alternative roof covering. We have studied the common sources why green roofs are not selected and its advantages and construction. Green Roofs have existed in different shapes since year 900 before Christ, when the gardens were built up with trees, bushes and climbing root in pots. In Scandinavia, many centuries later, roof coverings were m
Context. Gaia Data Release 2 provides high-precision astrometry and three-band photometry for about 1.3 billion sources over the full sky. The precision, accuracy, and homogeneity of both astrometry and photometry are unprecedented. Aims. We highlight the power of the Gaia DR2 in studying many fine structures of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD). Gaia allows us to present many different HRDs,
Introduction: To remain competitive, industrial organisations are continually faced with the challenges to improve product quality, reduce product development time, reduce production costs and lead-times. Increasingly, these challenges cannot be effectively met by isolated changes to specific organizational units. The Supply Chainis a revolutionary concept embedded in a traditional guise. In b
Librarians like to think that libraries contribute substantially to the progress of research. However, libraries still seem to have serious problems getting integrated in their parent organization on equal terms with other parts of that organization. The degree of integration of the library is thus the main topic of this thesis and the purpose is to examine how the interaction between librarians a
Calcium phosphate materials (CaPs) have proven biocompatible and useful in clinical situations. One CaP showing promise in the clinic is alpha phase tricalcium phosphate ([alpha]-TCP). [alpha]-TCP in powder form can be hydrated and undergoes a reaction resulting in calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA). The similarity of CDHA and human bone makes [alpha]-TCP a very viable material for applicatio
The autumn migration of raptors at Falsterbo, Sweden has been studied since the early 1940s, and from 1973 standardized counts were made. Here we present data for 15 species over a 39-year period from 1942-97. These are discussed in the context of available information on population trends in Sweden and neighbouring countries. Although annual numbers and concentration rate vary considerably betwee
Smoke from western North American wildfires reached the stratosphere in large amounts in August 2017. Limb-oriented satellite-based sensors are commonly used for studies of wildfire aerosol injected into the stratosphere (OMPS-LP (Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite Limb Profiler) and SAGE III/ISS (Stratospheric Aerosol and Gas Experiment III on the International Space Station)). We find that these m
Purpose/Objective(s): Over 30% of advanced prostate cancers harbor a predominance of neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) differentiation. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has numerous limitations in prostate adenocarcinoma (PCa-adeno), however there is no data that exists outside of isolated single person case reports to assess the utility of PET to restage and monitor
Biografi: Otto von Geuricke (1602 - 1686) Otto von Guericke (1602–1686) var borgmästare i Magdeburg, diplomat, fysiker och uppfinnare. Han var den förste som experimenterade med att skapa vakuum. Hans mest kända experiment var det med de Magdeburgska halvkloten, vilket visade lufttryckets stora kraft. Genom detta inledde han en ny inriktning inom forskning och tillämpningar – vakuumtekniken.

År 1994 såg det internationella samfundet passivt på medan uppskattnings-vis 800 000 människor förlorade sina liv i ett folkmord i Rwanda. Fem år senare inledde NATO en militär intervention i Kosovo med argumentet att det rörde sig om en "humanitär intervention". I båda fallen var säkerhetsrå-det oförmöget eller ovilligt att agera, trots att det var tänkt att agera som beskyddare av värlIn 1994 the international community stood idly by while an estimated 800.000 people lost their lives in a genocide in Rwanda. Five years later, NATO launched its military intervention in Kosovo, with the argument that it was a ‘humanitarian intervention’. In both cases, the Security Council was unable or unwilling to act although it was supposed to act as the protector of world peace and security.
Det här är ett masterarbete kring relationen mellan ADHD och musik, inte inom medicin. Med arbetet vill jag lyfta upp fördelar, hyperförmågor och den stora kreativa potential som ADHD ger mig som musiker. Jag fick ADHD-diagnosen först efter flera års studier på Musikhögskolan, och hade innan dess levt 30 år med bara nackdelar med ADHD. Eftersom jag var missnöjd med medicinen tänkte jag “out of theFinding my inner Nimrud - my life as an ADHD musician This is a master's thesis on the relationship between ADHD and music, not in medicine. With this work, I aim to highlight the advantages, hyper-abilities and great creative potential that ADHD give me as a musician. I got the ADHD diagnosis after 4 years of study at the Academy of Music. Before that I lived 30 years with only the disadvanta
De senaste åren har den organiserade brottslighet i Sverige ökat markant. Landet pekas ut som skräckexempel i världen och antalet skjutningar och sprängningar ökar år för år. Samtidigt finns en utbredd tystnadskultur där allt färre svenskar vågar vittna mot den tilltalade vid ett misstänkt brott på grund av rädsla för hot och repressalier. Mot bakgrund av den otrygghet många känner i dagens samhälIn recent years, organized crime in Sweden has grown significantly. The country is pointed out as a warning example in the world, while the number of shootings and explosions increases year by year. At the same time, there is a widespread culture of silence due to which many witnesses do not dare to testify against the accused in the event of a suspected crime, partly out of a strong fear of threa
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur Sverige kom att få fri abort genom att redogöra för argumentationen som fördes under riksdagsdebatten år 1974 gällande införandet av den nya abortlagen. Det görs genom rättshistorisk metod och materialet som har använts är främst riksdagsprotokollen från debatten. För att sätta in riksdagsdebatten i sitt sammanhang berör uppsatsen även kort en överblick The purpose of this essay is to investigate how Sweden got free abortion by examining the arguments made during the parliamentary debate in 1974, which concerned the legislation of free abortion. This is done using a legal historical method and the material that has been used consists mainly of the protocols from the debate. To put the debate in its context the thesis also gives an overview over
Sveriges könstillhörighetslag ska enligt dess förarbeten bestå av två skilda delar av en process om könserkännande, men gör i praktiken inte det. Det görs en gemensam ansökan för att få tillstånd till både ändring av könsregistrering i folkbokföringen (ofta kallat det juridiska könet) och viss medicinsk könsbekräftande vård. För att motivera en medicinsk utredning innan båda dessa åtgärder användsAccording to its preparatory work, Sweden's law on gender recognition shall consist of two separate parts in the process of gender recognition, but in practice does not. A joint application is made for permission to change the gender registration in the population register (often called the legal gender) and to certain medical gender-confirming care. The same argument is used to justify a medi
Åldern för jordens inre kärna är en gåta som har förbryllat forskare i många decennier. Allt från en ålder lika hög som jordens magnetfält (mellan 3,5 och 4,2 Ga) i den ena änden, ner till 0,5 Ga i den andra änden. Eftersom den inre kärnan existerar på en fullkomligt oåtkomlig plats i jordens innersta centrum, medför detta självklara svårigheter när det kommer till direkta observationer (med seismThe age of the Earth's inner core is an enigma that has puzzled scientists for many decades. Everything from an age as high as the Earth's magnetic field (between 3.5 and 4.2 Ga) at one end, down to 0.5 Ga at the other end. Since the inner core exists in a completely inaccessible place in the innermost center of the Earth, this presents obvious difficulties when it comes to direct observat
Extrema klimathändelser, såsom betydande översvämningar, utgör en risk för naturkatastrofer. På grund av klimatförändringarnas effekter förväntas södra Sverige få fler betydande regnväder som kan orsaka översvämningar i allt högre grad med mängden utsläpp. I denna studie undersöks dagens och framtidens översvämningsrisk i ett litet område i denna region, inom Kävlinges avrinningsområde. I det framExtreme climate events, such as significant flooding, pose a natural disaster risk. Due to climate change effects, the southern region of Sweden is anticipated to receive more significant rainstorms that could cause flooding increasingly with the quantity of emissions. This study examines the present-day and future climate’s flooding risk in a small area in this region, within the Kävlinge Watersh
This thesis is trying to identify and give solutions for the problems occurring in polyurethane sport surfaces in Iraq where the climate is extremely warm and dusty. One of the most important problems (called the ‘maintenance’ problem) is that the polyurethane sport surface looks very dirty because of the dust, a couple of weeks after installation of the surface the dust particles penetrates the s
