Soil and groundwater contamination is an increasingly recognised threat to public health and the environment around the globe. New types of contaminants continue to emerge, and awareness of their threat, continues to develop. Many countries have national clean-up programs with priority lists of the most hazardous contaminated sites. Investigation and remediation of these sites, however, take a lon
In the scientific domain of high energy physics (HEP), the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) was created in order to handle the huge compute and storage needs of the experiments at Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Today WLCG combines about 1.4 million computer cores and 1.5 exabytes of storage from over 170 sites in 42 countries. What ties the sites together is the middleware installed at each site,
This diploma work has been performed in collaboration with Johnson Matthey, a company supplying catalysts and technologies, such as formaldehyde plants and catalysts. The aim of the master thesis project was to investigate if and how water impacts the partial oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde over a FeMo-catalyst. The investigation covers how water affects the selectivity to the main product a

The active site of the [FeFe] hydrogenases contains two Fe ions bound to one Cys ligand, three CO molecules, two CN(-) ions, and a dithiolate ligand. The nature of the last of these has been much discussed, and it has been suggested that it contains C, N, or O as the bridgehead atom. Most experimental studies indicate a N atom, whereas a recent density functional theory (DFT) study of a crystal st
Poor public perception can obstruct a construction project in a damaging way. Knowledge about public opinion should be considered as a relevant area of expertise for project managers and as an essential cost element in the planning and completion of construction projects. A consensual approach to a siting controversy requires informal face-to-face interaction among chosen representatives from all
This study describes the chydorid (Branchiopoda, Anomopoda) assemblages from 66 European shallow lakes, and presents data relating the assemblages to lake type and ecological quality. Forty species, out of a total recorded European fauna of 60 species, were found in the study sites. No significant differences were found between chydorid assemblages associated with rock and plant substrata. Pattern
The bone material from three archaeological occupation phases at Huseby Klev provides the best source of evidence currently available about the subsistence strategies of pioneer settlers in Northern Europe. The results from Huseby Klev indicate that the pioneer settlers initially relied heavily on marine mammals for their sustenance. This subsistence strategy changed during the second and third oc
Endogenous programs that regulate annual cycles have been shown for many taxa, including protists, arthropods, fish, mammals and birds. In migration biology, these programs are best known in songbirds. The majority of songbirds rely on a genetic program inherited from their parents that will guide them during their first solo-migration. The phenotypic components of the program are crucial for thei
Samtliga studenthem som som slog upp portarna i Lund i slutet av 1800-talet var enbart avsedda för män. I början av 1900-talet startades dock ett första studenthem för kvinnor i mycket blygsam skala. Ekonomin satte käppar i hjulet för större satsningar, varpå det dröjde ända till 1937 innan Studentskegården kunde invigas. I Lund runt sekelskiftet 1900 rådde det egentligen ingen brist på studentrum

EG har kontinuerligt ägnat sig åt reglering av kemiska produkter. 1967 antogs första rättsakten som rörde kemikaliekontroll. Under 1960- och 70-talen antogs gemenskapslagstiftning främst för att undanröja hinder för den gemensamma inre marknaden och därmed främja den fria varurörligheten. Under 1980-talet blev miljöskydd ensamt skäl att anta lagstiftning på kemikalieområdet. Genom åren har ett ant
Generalist parasites experience selective pressures from the various host species they infect. However, it is unclear if parasite transmission among host species precludes the establishment of host-specific adaptations and population genetic structure. We assessed the population genetic structure of the vector-transmitted avian haemosporidian parasite Haemoproteus majoris (lineage WW2; n = 34 infe
Bakgrund: I bygg- och anläggningsbranschen skedde 1470 olyckor år 2018 där några även ledde till dödlig utgång (Arbetsmiljöverket, 2018). Utbildningen till maskinförare idag är både lång men grundlig och ger maskinföraren de förutsättningar som krävs för att framföra ett anläggningsfordon på ett säkert sätt på en byggarbetsplats. Genom regleringar från arbetsmiljöverket och förebyggande åtgärder aBackground: In the construction industry a total 1470 accidents occurred 2018 where some of them also led to fatal outcome (Arbetsmiljöverket, 2018). The qualification to be a construction machine operator are both long and thorough and will give the operator the prerequisites to convey the construction machine in a safe way on different construction sites. Through regulations from Arbetsmiljöverk
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ofrivilligt urinläckage, urininkontinens, omfattar mer än 50 miljoner människor i världen, varav cirka 500 000 i Sverige. Av dessa beräknas 2/3 vara kvinnor. Ofrivilligt urinläckage är ett medicinskt och socialt handikapp för den drabbade, operation och hjälpmedel förorsakar samhället stora kostnader. Risken för urininkontinens ökar med stigande ålder. I svenska studierAbstract Pelvic floor disorders (PFD) represent a major public health issue worldwide. Aims of this work Study I: to investigate associations between preoperative resting urethral parameters (MUCP, FL and CA) and objective outcome of laparoscopic colposuspension and, if possible, to identify cutoff values useful in clinical practice. Study II: to investigate a group of perimenopausal women reporti
Popular Abstract in Swedish Immunsystemet är ett invecklat och komplext system som finns överallt i kroppen och som inte är begränsat till ett enda organ. Vi utsätts hela tiden för ”angrepp” från mikro-organismer (t.ex. bakterier eller virus) men också för främmande ämnen som kan vara skadliga eller giftiga. Immunsystemets huvudfunktion är att hjälpa kroppen att känna igen dessa ”angripare” och atThe overall aim of this PhD project was to gain insight into the incidence of primary immunodeficiency (PID) in southern Sweden and to optimize diagnostic and treatment measures for these patients. We estimated the occurrence rate of PID in the pediatric population of southern Sweden during a period of 4 years and described the demographic, clinical and immunological characteristics of the identif
In silico tools for splicing defect prediction have a key role to assess the impact of variants of uncertain significance. Our aim was to evaluate the performance of a set of commonly used splicing in silico tools comparing the predictions against RNA in vitro results. This was done for natural splice sites of clinically relevant genes in hereditary breast/ovarian cancer (HBOC) and Lynch syndrome.
With their highly sensitive visual systems, the arthropods have evolved a remarkable capacity to orient and navigate at night. Whereas some navigate under the open sky, and take full advantage of the celestial cues available there, others navigate in more difficult conditions, such as through the dense understory of a tropical rainforest. Four major classes of orientation are performed by arthropo
There are many projects in Mozambique for poverty reduction. One of these projects is funded by Millennium Challenge Account (MCA) and is aimed to install a total of 600 rural water points in the provinces of Nampula and Cabo Delgado. Each water point consists of a drilled well, a water pump and a communal washing basin. Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) was used for assessing the uitability of
In this thesis, the GW approximation (GWA, Green's function G times screened interaction W) and the Hubbard I approximation (HIA) are combined in a non-self-consistent one-shot calculation to determine the electronic structure of a one-dimensional strongly-correlated model. The scheme was chosen to incorporate both screening effects through the GWA and strong on-site correlations through the a
