The effect of future changes in temperature and precipitation patterns on arctic ecosystem functioning is often assessed using state-of-the-art ecosystem models. Many models however lack detailed representation of wintertime processes, as pointed out by recent studies (Wang et al. 2016, Slater and Lawrence 2013). This bias may influence the derived outputs, such as soil temperature, permafrost ext
Pleural and tracheal injuries remain significant problems, and an easy to use, effective pleural or tracheal sealant would be a significant advance. The major challenges are requirements for adherence, high strength and elasticity, dynamic durability, appropriate biodegradability, and lack of cell or systemic toxicity. We designed and evaluated two sealant materials comprised respectively of algin
The study investigates how the Best Interests of the Child principle in the UN Children's Rights Convention (Article 3) has been adapted in custody disputes in Egypt, Sweden, and Uzbekistan. Although the Convention on the Rights of the Child offers a common normative benchmark, divergent legal cultures shape its domestic meaning: Egypt is governed by religious and state legal norms intersecting wi

Background and Aims Organisms may be polymorphic within natural populations, but often the significance and genetic background to such polymorphism is not known. To understand the colour polymorphism expressed in the diploid marsh-orchids Dactylorhiza incarnata, morphological, habitat and genetic differentiation was studied in mixed populations on the island of Gotland, supplemented with genetic m
This study compares the performance of different models used to assess the local wind near-surface conditions at an agricultural site in Scania, southern Sweden. The methods are: (a) the WASP model (Wind Analysis and Application Program), (b) separate linear regressions of the two wind vector components, (c) a regression model based on vector correlation, and (d) linear regression of scalar wind.
The effects of input data uncertainty on the critical loads and exceedance estimates for Swedish forest soils was assessed using Monte Carlo simulations of the PROFILE model. The study focuses on the effects of data uncertainty on the 5%-ile critical load at 150 × 150 km resolution and the 95%-ile exceedance at 150 × 150 km and 50 × 50 km resolution. The results indicate that data uncertainty limi
Pentaklorfenol (PCP) är en klorerad aromatisk förening som användes flitigt för att behandla trä mot mikrobiell nedbrytning innan den blev förbjuden på 70-talet. På grund av dess höga löslighet förekommer PCP som en grundvattenförorening kring äldre sågverk. Hjortsberga i södra Sverige är ett exempel på denna typ av förorening och är det område som undersöks i arbetet. Förorenat grundvatten spridsPentachlorophenol (PCP) is a chlorinated aromatic compound that was commonly used for treatment of wood against microbial degradation before it got banned in the 1970s. Due to its solubility in water, PCP is a common groundwater contaminant around old sawmills, for example near Hjortsberga in southern Sweden where this study was performed.. The contaminated groundwater is spreading and leaking int
Pheromone-based monitoring could be a very efficient method to assess the conservation status of rare and elusive insect species, but there are still few studies for which pheromone traps have been used to obtain information on presence, abundance, phenology and movements of such insects. We performed a mark-recapture study of two threatened saproxylic beetles, Osmoderma eremita (Scarabaeidae) and
Naturliga metanutsläpp sker från våra våtmarker världen över. Metan produceras naturligt genom nedbrytning i de syrefria förhållanden som en våtmark erbjuder. För att bättre kunna modellera och skala upp hur mycker metan som faktiskt släpps ut från dessa våtmarker måste ytterligare förståelse skapas över varför metanutsläppen varierar så kraftigt både i tid och rum. Denna studie försöker öka förstMethane emissions from natural wetlands are an important contributor to methane levels in the atmosphere. These emissions are highly variable in time and space, even within sites. Further understanding of this variation is vital to successfully model the overall methane emissions from wetlands. This study investigates spatial variation through measurements of 22 plots across Fäjemyr bog. Manual me
Collecting detailed hydrogeological data before, during, and after remediation campaigns is essential for effective management and monitoring of contaminated sites. As in-situ remediation injection treatment becomes more popular, recording the hydraulic response during these events offers an opportunity to collect detailed data on hydrogeological parameters. Often, multiple injections are performe
With the sustainable potential of the city as a starting point, this thesis examines brownfield redevelopment in an existing urban context. The Nørrebro neighborhood of Copenhagen serves as a case. The focus is on learning from and reinterpreting existing urban structure, hierarchy, density and scale. Legislation allowing car free development at the chosen site, Vingelodden, also prompts explorati

Tonåringar utgör en viktig källa till flexibel och lågavlönad arbetskraft inom servicesektorn. Trots detta saknas forskning som belyser och problematiserar deras sysselsättningsmönster, anställningsvillkor och arbetserfarenheter – särskilt i en nordisk kontext. Denna avhandling analyserar gymnasieelever som arbetskraft i Sverige, i skärningspunkten mellan kundnära servicebranscher som är beroende Teenage students constitute an important source of flexible, low-cost labor in interactive service sectors. However, existing empirical research has primarily treated their labor as transitional, focusing on its impact on future employment or labor market outcomes. There remains a lack of knowledge about how these young workers experience and make sense of their early employment, particularly with

Popular Abstract in Swedish Trots ett sunt leverne med regelbunden motion och nyttig mat kan vi inte alltid förhindra risken att drabbas av vissa typer av cancer som till exempel hjärntumörer. Den vanligaste formen av elakartade hjärntumörer heter glioblastoma multiforme och är också den mest aggressiva. Symptomen varierar beroende på tumörens storlek och var i hjärnan den växer, och patienter kanGlioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary malignant brain tumor in adults. Despite standard treatment including surgery, radiotherapy and temozolomide (TMZ)-based chemotherapy, the prognosis for GBM patients is dismal, and there is a need for novel treatments. One possible therapeutic treatment modality presented here is immunotherapy, either alone or combined with in
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det svenska samhället har förändrats mycket genom invandring under de senaste årtiondena. Många barn i Sverige har idag ett annat modersmål än svenska. De flesta barn tillägnar sig svenska utan problem, medan så inte är fallet för vissa barn. Dessa skillnader har diskuterats, och olika förklaringar till detta har framhållits, till exempel bristfällig exponering för svenThe aim of this thesis was to provide both epidemiological and linguistic data on bilingual children with language impairment (LI), since few data on this group exist. Data from 438 bilingual and monolingual children, referred over a period of 12 months, were compared in the first epidemiological study. The results showed that the bilingual children with suspected LI were referred significantly l
The diastereoselectivity of the carbonyl reduction of bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-2,6-dione, catalysed by the purified yeast cytosolic short-chain dehydrogenase Ymr226cp, was shown to be substrate concentration dependent. The changing selectivity was attributed to two distinct binding configurations of the substrate in the active site, each yielding a distinct hydroxy ketone diastereomer. By applying ind
