The fast development of generative artificial intelligence (“AI”) services—such as ChatGPT, Midjourney, Dall-E—have within a short period of time gained immense uptake and popularity. At the same time, such services have given rise to fundamental challenges from a copyright perspective. Court proceedings have been initiated in many jurisdictions on the compatibility of such services with copyright
A robust water supply system is significant to the local ecosystem of riparian vegetation in the arid basin. Considering the elasticity and relative importance of ecological water use in different regions of the basin, this study defines the ecological water rights on a multi-year scale, divides the priority of those rights based on the ecological network, and proposes a rights allocation method.
This paper discusses how housing for refugees is delt with by the authorities in rural Finland and Sweden. More precisely, we look at the services systems, rights and obligations which guide the choices of immigrants once they are allowed so stay, at least temporarily, in respective country. We apply the ‘conflicted policy processes’ approach in intergovernmental relations and Peter Scholten’s gov
As requirements regarding energy efficiency are getting tougher, buildings in the arctic, as well as the rest of the world, need to be more energy efficient without compromising a good indoor climate. This article presents measured moisture supply and occupancy level in a Swedish arctic multi-family apartment block. Measurements were done over 1 year every 30 minutes in a building consisting of 51
The EU's farmers are no longer required to produce commodities to receive direct payments as long as they keep their land in good condition. Some believe this is bad for development because it encourages passive farming. We evaluate, using a real options approach, the implications of decoupled payments for the desirability and optimal timing of agricultural land development when considering sunk i
Biological responses to climate change have been widely documented across taxa and regions, but it remains unclear whether species are maintaining a good match between phenotype and environment, i.e. whether observed trait changes are adaptive. Here we reviewed 10,090 abstracts and extracted data from 71 studies reported in 58 relevant publications, to assess quantitatively whether phenotypic trai
Purpose: Young people transitioning from out-of-home care are a vulnerable group. This article reports two studies aiming to increase understanding of how to develop interventions for this group and focuses on preliminary intervention fit from the youth and social worker perspective. Methods: We conducted two small-scale studies. Social workers (Study I, n = 2; Study II, n = 9), and youth (Study I
As requirements regarding energy efficiency are getting tougher, buildings in the arctic, as well as the rest of the world, need to be more energy efficient without compromising a good indoor climate. This paper presents measured moisture supply and occupancy level in a Swedish Arctic multi-family building. Measurements were done during one year with readings every 30 minutes in a building consist
This paper examines the bus rapid transit (BRT) legacies of mega sporting events (MSEs) held in the Global South cities of Cape Town and Rio de Janeiro. It discusses the extent to which these transport systems have been operationally sustainable, post-MSE; in other words, their ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level and hence their ability to act as public good as planned and accordin
The purpose of this study is to put focus at the most relevant areas of a business model for power distribution to real estates in a context of technology, electricity market and customer input. By taking a closer look at new energy technology and the electricity market in Sweden – complemented with insights from a number of interviews with potential customers in the form of real estate companies
A large part of the greenhouse gas emissions and energy use comes from the construction industry. This thesis addresses some of the environmental and energy challenges the construction industry faces regarding renovating buildings. The examined building is Trelleborg Energi´s headquarters. Programs such as IDA ICE, Espoo, Renobuild and Miljöbyggnad 3.1 have been used to review and obtain results.
Denna studie berör gästnöjdhet och återkoppling vilka är viktiga aspekter när man arbetar med kunder. Speciellt inom hotellindustrin är detta viktigt då bra service handlar om att känna sin gäst. Hotellen vill veta alla bekymmer eller funderingar som gästen har medan de är kvar på hotellet för att kunna kompensera innan de lämnar. För att möjliggöra detta behöver hotellen ha bättre kommunikation m
