Open call for BECC Lighthouse projects between Feb to June 13th 2025 What is a BECC Lighthouse grant? A BECC Lighthouse Project addresses the big questions of our time revolving around Biodiversity and Ecosystem services in a Changing Climate. It typically brings together a focused consortium of BECC Principle Investigators (PIs) of varying background who collaborate closely, and meet regularly to

The Department of Economic History is working actively to put a stop to plagiarism and other forms of prohibited working methods. This work is carried out through information to our students via a number of channels such as the home page, introductory meetings, course curriculum, and instructions for exams. We also use Ouriginal - an automatic system for detecting plagiarism. What is plagiarism?Pl

The purpose of this study is to explore the behavior of a dense jet and bottom plume, composed of brine water of heavier effluent into a quiescent homogeneous ambient, discharged into a receiving body of lighter fresh water (tank). This situation is common in connection with freshwater production from sea water (desalination), which produces a brine waste stream, usually discharged back into sea w
Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects health and quality of life (QoL) and also has great impact on both healthcare costs and costs to society. Objectives The aim of the study was to analyse the cost-effectiveness of treatment with tacrolimus ointment vs. standard treatment in patients with moderate to severe AD. Methods A Markov simulation model was constructed capturing several key features
Non-contact acoustic field measurements are performed on a newly built highway to characterize the real part of the dynamic modulus of the asphalt concrete (AC) top layer. The in situ measurements are performed using an array of 48 micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) sensors. Cores extracted from the field measurement positions are then examined in a laboratory using seismic modal testing for co
Adventitious root formation is a limiting factor for vegetative propagation in apple. The molecular mechanisms underlying the rooting process are still largely unknown and need to be extensively investigated. The Adventitious Rooting Related Oxygenase (ARRO-1) has previously been isolated from apple and has been shown to be upregulated during adventitious root induction. However, the function of t
Background: In egg-laying animals, mothers can influence the developmental environment and thus the phenotype of their offspring by secreting various substances into the egg yolk. In birds, recent studies have demonstrated that different yolk substances can interactively affect offspring phenotype, but the implications of such effects for offspring fitness and phenotype in natural populations have
For scientists and policy-makers it is important to understand the value of networks and collaborations for scientific quality and commercialisation of research results. The interplay between funding mechanisms and research collaborations is of particular importance in this context. We explore this interplay with an empirical analysis of international research collaborations involving EU countries
In large software organizations with a product line development approach a selective testing of product variants is necessary in order to keep pace with the decreased development time for new products, enabled by the systematic reuse. The close relationship between products in product line indicates an option to reduce the testing effort due to redundancy. In many cases test selection is performed
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kartering av primärproduktion i Västrafrikanska Sahel genom användning av satellitdata. I avhandlingen har utvecklats en Light Use Efficency (LUE) modell som medger kartering av bruttoprimärproduktionen (GPP) exemplifierad i ett område i Västafrikanska Sahel. Modellen utnyttjar satellitbaserad månatlig Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) tillsammans med andraA light Use Efficiency (LUE) model is developed that allows the mapping of total growing season Gross Primary Production (GPP) for the West African Sahel, using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) together with other data. Image quality may be poor in monthly NDVI maximum value composites as shown by an improved geostatistical noise estimation technique. Quality may be improved by ot
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Solen värmer jordytan olika mycket på olika platser dels beroende på om ytan är land, hav eller is och dels beroende på den breddgrad ytan är belägen på. Denna ojämna uppvärmning ger upphov till regionala ojämnheter i lufttrycket. Det är dessa tryckojämnheter som styr vindriktningarna i atmosfären och därmed vart alla vädersystemen rör sig. Det är alltså den ojäLong time-series of pressure measurements often have high quality because the early instruments are more or less the same as the modern ones. A time-series from Lund consisting of three daily measurements from 1780-1997 has been homogenised and is therefore suitable for analysing possible influences of the enhanced greenhouse effect. According to a two-layer model of the atmosphere one finds a shi
The paper explores the flux of male homosexual identity between urban subcultures and small rural settings in Sweden. Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick has claimed that we cannot interpret Foucault’s History of Sexuality as if one understanding of sexuality was substituted by another, but that many forms of sexuality coexist in any given time. Inspired by her analysis, this paper claims that a shift between t
Rapeseed is the second most cultivated oilseed after soybean and is mainly used to produce vegetable oil. The by-product rapeseed press cake is rich in high-quality proteins, thus having the possibility of becoming a new plant protein food source. This study aimed to investigate how the precipitation pH affects the protein yield, protein content, and emulsifying properties when industrially cold-p
Digital innovation offers promising avenues for accessible, engaging, and user-friendly training solutions, crucial for promoting safety among manufacturing workers. However, optimizing these solutions demands a profound understanding of workers’ needs and preferences in interacting with these digital systems. The ongoing “DigiSafeMan” project aims to develop a prototype of a digital training tool
