Here, we discuss the feedback processes that determine the nature and rates of climatic changes in response to climate forcing. We explain the differences in the characteristic behaviour of biophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks, and describe the means by which feedbacks can be identified using models and observational data, and their strength quantified. Improved understanding of these kinds of
OBJECTIVES: To compare and examine whether, when and how patients with lung cancer in three countries, with different survival rates, talk about cigarette smoking and its relationship with help-seeking. DESIGN: A qualitative cross-country comparison with analysis of narrative interviews. SETTING: Participants in Sweden, Denmark and England were interviewed during 2015-2016. Interviews, using a nar
Den snabba utvecklingen av elektrifiering av vägtransporter i Sverige kräver forskningsbaserade beslut om placeringen av laddinfrastruktur. Europeiska unionens (EU) nya förordning för infrastruktur för alternativa bränslen (AFIR) specificerar det maximala tillåtna avståndet mellan offentliga snabbladdningsstationer (FCS) för tunga lastbilar längs det transeuropeiska transportnätverket (TEN-T). EffThe rapid progression of the electrification of road transport in Sweden requires effective research based decisions on the location of charging infrastructure. The new European Union (EU) regulation for alternative fuel infrastructure (AFIR) specifies the maximum allowed distance between public fast-charging stations (FCSs) for heavy-duty trucks along the Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T).
In 1934, Walter Benjamin published his major study Franz Kafka: Zur zehnten Wiederkehr seines Todestages. In the same year, Günther Anders, another German Jew in exile, gave a lecture on Kafka which later, in postwar years, developed into a small book titled Kafka, Pro und Contra. Bringing these two in dialogue—the much-celebrated essay by Benjamin and the generally overlooked book by Anders—the p
This paper discusses the role of mathematics in physics teaching and learning. The intention and strength of science is to describe what happens in the realworld by organizing explanations through theories and theoretical models. It has been widely suggested that learning in science is influenced by views about the nature of scientific knowledge. Furthermore, mathematics is an inherent part of the
Informal caregiving is increasingly considered a health care delivery-resource within the North European welfare states. While ‘informal’ often refers to non-professional, ‘caregiving’ connotes both affective concern (caring about) and practical action (caring for). This duality of meanings, however, often refers to the one direction in which care is given. Care, we suggest, is relational and also
BACKGROUND: Prolonged opioid use (more than 90 days) after injury puts the patient at risk for adverse effects. We investigated the patterns of opioid prescription after distal radius fracture and the effect of pre- and post-fracture factors on the risk for prolonged use.METHODS: This register-based cohort study uses routinely collected health care data, including purchases of prescription opioids
A great amount of research effort has been devoted to theproduction of core-shell nanoparticles for applications in variousfields including biomedical imaging, catalysis, and plasmonics.Such attention to core-shell nanoparticles arise from the fact thatthey can exhibit enhanced physical and/or chemical properties.Furthermore, core-shell particles with distinctly new propertiescompared to those of
During the last two decades a slow but steady change of external factors has set-up new conditions affecting the way in how software producing firms create and leverage innovations. Firms now need to look outside of their boundaries and start interacting with the open environment that encompasses them in order to stay innovative and keep a competitive advantage. To facilitate this shift Requiremen
