Cirrus clouds are high-level ice clouds covering ≈ 30% of Earth’s surface. The cirrus clouds ice crystals can be formed by heterogeneous or homogeneous nucleation, where temperatures for heterogeneous nucleation was set to -38 - -30 °C and for homogeneous nucleation below -42 °C. The study will focus on microphysical properties of cirrus clouds in the tropics, 0-30°, and the mid-latitudes, 30-60°,
The study develops a panel data framework to highlight the relationship between income inequality and macroeconomic and demographic factors. The macroeconomic variables are selected with regard to previous research and tested for significance. Some proved to be significantly relevant for the final regression and some were excluded. Overall, based on the available data we can show that income inequ
Complex space components are getting more important as the request for high precision space missions is increasing. The main contribution to vibrations on a satellite is the reaction wheels, the primary actuator in the attitude control of the satellite. One of the main sources of vibrations is torque ripple which is caused by various reasons, one being the control algorithm. This thesis focuses on
In recent years localising humanitarian aid has been a strategic direction for many humanitarian organisations to give local actors more ownership and make humanitarian interventions more efficient. Nevertheless, in conflict situations localising humanitarian aid can result in a series of dilemmas. This thesis is concentrated around humanitarian organisations’ adherence to the humanitarian princip
“Käften Gunvald” är en textanalys av en karaktär i Beckserien utifrån ett performativitetsperspektiv och normperspektiv. Den är skriven av Aleks Kursis och Moa Lindholm, enheten för medie och kommunikationsvetenskap, vid institutionen för kommunikation och medier, Lunds universitet. Den här uppsatsen undersöker representation i populärkulturen och tittar på huvudkaraktären Gunvald Larsson i den s
Syftet med denna text är dels att kunna beskriva och förklara anledningen till förändringen i Welles estetik från debutfilmen Citizen Kane (1941) till hans återkomst till USA med Touch of Evil (1958) dels att redogöra för hur den berättarstruktur som utmärkte hans debutfilm förekom i flera av hans produktioner. Jag skall särskilt behandla uppkomsten av filmen Mr. Arkadin/-Confidential Report; och
This paper is a proposition of how to use an archetypal analysis based on new theoretical concepts of the Jungian archetypes, such as the image schema (Knox, 2001), the bi-polarity of complexes (Perry, 1970), and the culture complex (Singer, 2006). Consequently, these are combined with the cognitive schema theory, cues and the cultural frame switch theory. Furthermore, these theories are connected
I den här uppsatsen, som undersöker representation i populärkulturen, undersöks huvudkaraktären Jess i den amerikanska sitcom serien New Girl. Mer specifikt undersöks hur tropen, eller karaktärstypen, Manic Pixie Dream Girl konstrueras av seriens huvudkaraktär, samt hur Jess normbrytande beteende kommer till uttryck i serien. I undersökningen används social normteori samt en rad genusteoretiska be
The topic of energy, and particularly, the growing role of renewable energy sources in decarbonizing the economy dominates European political and research agendas. Similarly, a revived political interest in Western Balkan countries from the European Union (EU) sheds light on the longstanding efforts of legislative harmonization and the modernization, decarbonization and integration of the regional
Despite available vaccines, rotavirus (RV) gastroenteritis remains to be an alarming cause of under-five mortality, especially in developing countries. Research on RV has been limited by the lack of faithful in vitro models that mimic virus-host interaction and RV pathogenesis in the intestine. Most recently, adult stem cell-derived organoids have advanced the understanding of the cellular mechani
The Altajme drillcore was recovered from near Buttle in central Gotland in 2015. The core was drilled in outcrop belt of the late Wenlock (Silurian) Klinteberg Formation as a result from an international drilling campaign between the Department of Geology at Lund University and Iowa University, USA. The coring continued to the top of the underlying Ordovician strata at a depth of ca 330 m. In this
The case company endeavors to be fossil free by 2030. In order to achieve that objective, the current packaging solution for kitchen and laundry appliances containing EPS plastic must be replaced with a packaging built on only fiber-based materials. This master thesis is focusing on identifying the packaging requirements for a replacement and how these requirements influence the packaging material
In this thesis, the relationship between democracy and biodiversity is examined by conducting a co-variational analysis using the cases of Colombia and Venezuela. Building on the foundation of previous studies, this thesis uses threatened species as a proxy for biodiversity to a greater extent than has been done previously. By analysing the results of the study, this thesis have been able to conc
Since the economic convergence between East and West Germany has come to a halt, the lack of scale and agglomeration effects is assumed to be contributing to this trend of stagnation. This paper studies the development of patterns of these effects in East Germany with an emphasis on the German reunification and economic integration process while accounting for asymmetries between East and West. Ex
The aim of this study is to examine what rhetorical themes and features are present in the speeches of Julius Caesar’s De bello Gallico and De bello civili. The investigation is based on the 172 speeches found in De Bello Gallico and the 83 speeches found in De Bello Civili. Lausberg’s Handbook of Literary Rhetoric: A Foundation for Literary Study provides the theoretical framework for the analysi
Urbanisation is an ongoing trend all over the world, and these same trends occur in the Faroe Islands as well. Some of the small peripheral islands are now believed to be on the verge of becoming unpopulated. This study investigates the role of landownership in depopulation on the outer islands in the Faroe Islands. The study looks at two islands in particular and investigates trends in land owner
To be able to produce an orange flavoured ProViva, a fruit drink containing oatmeal formula with the probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus plantarum 299v, it is essential to inhibit the co-metabolism of citrate performed by the bacteria. Orange is namely a fruit containing high concentration of citric acid. By the end of shelf-life, the co-metabolism will result in an increase of an unwanted carbonatio
The aim of this study is to conduct a critical analysis of two video games through the perspective of gender studies. The reason for doing the analysis is implicitly connected to education. The results produced by this study are meant to showcase how video games can be analyzed critically, similar to how a novel or a movie can be analyzed. Sequentially, this will serve as an example how video game
