This thesis investigates the political-economic context that underlies the Korean Emissions Trading Scheme (KETS). The idea of trading carbon as a commodity in the carbon market has been embraced by many regions to reduce carbon emissions and to mitigate climate change. The government of South Korea has started to implement the emissions trading mechanism since 2015 to curtail the national greenho

As such it is a grammatical system learned by native speakers of Arabic through formal education. Case endings are traditionally regarded as an essential feature of Standard Arabic, but morphological case endings are used only sporadically in extemporaneous speech in formal situations where Standa
Nature has been recognized as a rich source of potentially useful chemicals. Throughout the years, phytochemical studies have led to the discovery of an enormous number of natural products, their chemical diversity is unique and many of them possess various biological activities. As a contribution, this thesis presents the results obtained from the phytochemical study of four Bolivian plants. Sene
Popular Abstract in Swedish Beräkningar från Cancerfonden visar på att ungefär var tredje person i Sverige kommer att få en cancerdiagnos under sin livstid. Cancerceller är celler som har utvecklat speciella förmågor som gör att de har börjat dela sig ohämmat. Denna ohämmade celldelning leder till bildandet av en tumör och när tumören har nått ett visst stadie i sin utveckling så börjar den spridaAs a cancer grows it will, at a certain stage of disease progression, start spreading in the body. For several types of cancer this spreading will first occur through the lymphatic system and the first place where metastatic cell will be encountered is the first lymph node that drains the area where the tumor is located. This lymph node is defined as the sentinel lymph node (SLN). By analyzing the
Popular Abstract in SwedishElektronen har, bortsett från sin massa, två grundläggande fysikaliska egenskaper som är av största vikt för denna avhandling i synnerhet och världen i allmänhet: laddning och spinn. Den förra egenskapen har i tiotals decennier använts inom det framgångsrika området elektronik. Den andra ger nu framför våra ögon upphov till det nya och fascinerande ormrådet spinntronik, This thesis deals with single-electron tunneling in transistor-like devices in which the central electrode is either a metal nanoparticle (possibly ferromagnetic) or a molecular magnet. The investigated systems split into two different categories, depending on the size of the central island. The smaller islands, such as ultrasmall magnetic metal nanoparticles and Mn12 molecular magnets, are studie
Popular Abstract in Swedish I mer än tre årtionden har kvinnors situation och främjandet av jämställdhet mellan kvinnor och män lyfts fram inom utvecklingssamarbetet. Bilaterala organisationer har gjort politiska åtaganden och utvecklat strategier, metoder och instrument för att uppnå detta viktiga mål. Som uppföljning på FNs fjärde kvinnokonferens i Peking (1995) är det viktigt att analysera vad Gender equality has been on the development cooperation agenda for more than three decades. Bilateral agencies have developed policies, strategies, methodologies and tools to support achievement of this important goal. Following the Fourth United Nations Conference on Women in Beijing in 1995 it is important to take stock of the progress that has been made, and identify the changes needed for movi
INTRODUCTION: Current pharmacological treatments of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have limited efficacy. Although the diagnosis is based on psychopathological criteria, it is frequently accompanied by somatic comorbidities and perhaps "accelerated biological aging," suggesting widespread physical concomitants. Such physiological comorbidities may affect core PTSD symptoms but are rarely th
Type III protein S deficiency is characterized by a low plasma level of free protein S, whereas the total concentration of protein S is normal. In contrast, both free and total protein S levels are low in type I deficiency. To elucidate the molecular mechanism behind the selective deficiency of free protein S in type III deficiency, the relationship between the plasma concentrations of β-chain con
In April, 2019, the author discovered that Archbishop Erling Eidem’s sermons and speeches, since 1966/1978, have been kept in the University library of Uppsala. This has been overlooked by all authors earlier dealing with Eidem, only using shortened summaries. In Lützen, on November 6, 1942, Eidem stated that »our Gustavus-Adolphuscelebration may not be characterized by national self-sufficiency a
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impact of exercise therapy on molecular biomarkers related to cartilage and inflammation in people at risk of, or with established, knee osteoarthritis by conducting a systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).METHODS: Literature search up to September 2017 in five major databases with no restriction on publication year or language. Data were extracted
Syftet med denna uppsats är att i detalj undersöka metoderna som används vid de högsta instanserna, rörande mänskliga rättigheter, i USA och Europa. Författaren har för avsikt att belysa likheterna och skillnaderna i deras tolkningsmetoder, rörande Artikel 6 i Europeiska konventionen om skydd för mänskliga rättigheter och femte, sjätte och fjortonde tillägget till de förenade staternas konstitutioThe Purpose of this essay is to investigate in detail the methods employed by the highest courts of law, concerning human rights, in both the USA and Europe. The author intends to highlight the similarities and differences in their methods and in regards to Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights and the Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. This will be don
Background and Objectives: Volunteering is characterised by an obligation-free action that occurs typically in an organisational setting. Its goals are to improve the health and well-being of others. Volunteering has the possibility of increasing both mental and physical health of volunteers. Values are the guiding motivators to applying for volunteering activities. The thesis aimed to understand
Fotboll och juridik är två system som under en längre tid setts som distinkt separata från varandra. Likväl, i takt med att den europeiska fotbollsindustrin fortsätter att växa gör också behovet av förutsägbar och hållbar lagstiftning det. Under de senaste trettio åren har Europeiska unionens domstol (EU-domstolen) kontinuerligt definierat idrottens särart som en undantagsprincip för sportindustriFootball and law are two systems that for a long time has been seen as distinctively separate from each other. However, as the European footballing industry continues to grow, so does the need for predictable and sustainable legislation. Throughout the last thirty years the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has been continuously defining the specificity of sport as a principle of exemp
Statkraft is Europe’s largest renewable energy company, operating in 23 countries, and employs more than 3000 staff. The company generates and develops renewable energy in a broad range, hydropower, gas power, wind power, district heating and is one of the major players on the European power exchange Nord Pool. This thesis will primarily focus on assessing Statkraft’s potential and strategic compe
Purpose: Whey protein (WP) consumption prior to a meal curbs appetite and reduces postprandial glucose (PPG) through stimulating endogenous GLP-1 secretion and insulin. Methods: We assessed the metabolic effects of a concentrated WP, using a new micelle-technology (WPM), in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and overweight or obesity (NCT04639726). In a randomized-crossover design, participants per
