Large plants are often more conspicuous and more attractive for associated animals than small plants, e.g. due to their wider range of resources. Therefore, plant size can positively affect species richness of associated animals, as shown for single groups of herbivores, but studies usually consider intraspecific size differences of plants in unstandardised environments. As comprehensive tests of
This article is a case study of the organization of the Swedish postal route to Europe in 1716. In the winter of 1715, the Swedish Baltic Empire lay in ruins and when the Swedish King Charles XII landed in Ystad, in the south of Sweden, he had many problems to deal with. One of the most urgent ones was to establish a postal route to the rest of Europe. During the war the traditional Swedish postal
This paper presents an FPGA implementation of an algorithm, previously published, for the the reconstruction of cosmic rays' trajectories and the determination of the time of arrival and velocity of the particles. The accuracy and precision issues of the algorithm have been analyzed to propose a suitable implementation. Thus, a 32-bit fixed-point format has been used for the representation of the
Background Polypharmacy in the Swedish elderly population is currently a prioritised area of research with a focus on reducing the use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs). Multi-professional interventions have previously been tested for their ability to improve drug therapy in frail elderly patients. Objective This study aimed to assess a structured model for pharmacist-led medication
Cell proliferation affects both cellular geometry and topology in a growing tissue, and hence rules for cell division are key to understanding multicellular development. Epithelial cell layers have for long times been used to investigate how cell proliferation leads to tissue-scale properties, including organism-independent distributions of cell areas and number of neighbors. We use a cell-based t
Human communication is both polysemiotic and multimodal; it is comprised of ensembles of representations from different semiotic systems in different sensory modalities. These semiotic systems, such as language, gestures, and pictures consist of signs and relations between signs, with system-specific affordances (Kendon, 2004; Zlatev, 2009; Sonesson, 2014). These systems all have their unique stor
The purpose of this study was to explore the increased privatization that followed in the wake of New public management. The study was based on foster home business and foster home conditions, with the existence of different logics with sometimes contradictory requirements to explore how foster home experiences affect their choice to enter into agreements with municipal or consultancy-supported ac
Många entreprenörer och startup kommer till en punkt när de har slutfört utvecklingen av en produkt men flyttar sedan till den fas som är avgörande för en produkts framgång, marknadsföringsbiten. Stora investeringskostnader i kombination med osäkerheten om den utvecklade produktens marknadsvärde är orsaken till många produkters misslyckanden. Detta leder till att många nya produkter aldrig når marMany entrepreneurs and start-ups come to the point when they have finished the development of a product but then moves to the phase which is crucial for a products success, the marketing effort. Large investment costs combined with the uncertainty of the developed product's market value is the reason for many products failure. Thus, many new products never reach the market because of the lack
E-commerce is a rapidly growing phenomenon that constantly attracts new target audiences and finds new fields of application. Some products are popular in the E-commerce and others are considered hard to sell over the web. Even the products that are considered a hard sell over the web are getting more popular, and the E-commerce web sites are evolving to increase customer satisfaction. The E-comme
Compiler optimizations are typically implemented as a sequence of trans- formations, applied to some representation of source code. The problem of ordering these transformations in an optimal way is commonly referred to as the phase-ordering problem. Program Expressions Graphs (PEGs) are a code representation designed to get around this problem, by deferring the decision of which optimizations to
Syftet med studien var att undersöka föräldrars upplevelser av att leva med ett barn med undvikande/restriktiv ätstörning (ARFID). Utgångspunkten var föräldrarnas vardag samt vad som var viktigt för dem i relation till barnens ätstörning. Data samlades in genom att genomföra semistrukturerade intervjuer med sex föräldrar. Deras barn hade en pågående behandlingskontakt på en barn- och ungdomsmediciThe aim of this study was to explore the experiences of parents living with a child with an avoidant/restrictive eating disorder (ARFID). Experiences of the parents’ everyday life, and what was important to them in relation to their child's eating disorder, were explored. The study's epistemological position was critical realistic, and data was collected by conducting semi-structured inter
The impact of climate change is increasingly being investigated over elevational gradients as they provide natural laboratories to study how species of plants and animals respond to changes in temperature, precipitation and other factors. Ferns are especially sensitive to air humidity and temperature and can therefore serve as potentially useful bioindicators. To better understand how species comm
We aimed to map out the landscape of the Swedish mental health and wellness technology market in order to show that there is a growing community of mental health entrepreneurs focused on innovation, particularly in post-covid times. Prior to our work, the Swedish Mental Health Tech sector had not been mapped out or explored. We gathered information on Swedish Mental Health Tech businesses from pu
This paper is about road surface temperatures in the city of Lund, situated in the southern part of Sweden. The measurments were carried out during Febuary and March 1988. The temperature of the road surface and 0.1 and 2m above this, wind speed and direction were measured and the cloud cover estimated. Meteorological data were obtained from SMHI (the Swedish meteorological and hydrological instit
Hur mycket som än skrivs om de svenska häxprocesserna verkar vi aldrig tröttna på att höra om dem, försöka förstå dem eller förfasas över dem. Denna uppsats behandlar en av de få, relativt outforskade, delarna i de svenska häxprocessernas historia: de processer som utspelade sig på Åland mellan åren 1666–1668. Processerna har till viss del fallit mellan forskningens stolar, då Åland inte längre tiNo matter how much is written about the Swedish witch trials we never seem to get tired of hearing of them, trying to understand them and be horrified by them. This essay explores one of few, relatively unknown parts of the Swedish witch trials: the trials that took place on the Åland Islands between the years 1666-1668. Not as much attention has been paid to these trials, probably because the Åla
Environmental issues are continuously getting more attention in the media. A great part of the media content about environmental issues is produced by environmental journalists working both in public service and commercial media organizations. In order to identify the potential and pitfalls of environmental journalism, this study focuses on exploring the journalistic values of environmental journa
The primary purpose of our study is to get a better understanding of the employees’ experience of their job performance with the emergence of ChatGPT. This includes taking a socio-technical perspective to explore the employees’ perspective with using this technology. The study was carried out using a qualitative research method, employing an interpretative perspective and an abductive research app
Denna studie handlar om vårt förhållningssätt till ny teknik i allmänhet och Internet of things i synnerhet. Vad ställer det för krav på tillit från vår sida, för att Internet of things (IoT) ska fungera? Vilka risker är förenade med användning av IoT? Hur ska vi hantera det faktum att själlösa föremål kommer att prata med varandra om allt vi företar oss och sedan mediera detta? För att får svar p
Outsourcing and contract manufacturing have developed as effective business strategies for electronics manufacturing services in the recent years. Most Consumer Electronic brand firms do not actually make the consumer products they sell but hire contract manufacturers, mostly in the developing world. Asia is currently the major production base of mobile phones for instance, with China and ASEAN ac
