Hazel (Corylus avellana) has been abundant in the vegetation of northern and central Europe since the early Holocene and has provided food and materials for humans ever since. Here we use stable carbon isotope (δ13C) values of hazelnut shells to infer woodland openness based on the premise of the “canopy effect”. It is well established that plants growing in dense, shaded forests have lower carbon

Ny teknologi kan göra denna dröm till verklighet, ochbörjar med att förstå de utmaningar vi står inför.Konventionella metoder för att studera insekter kan vara tidskrävande, svåra attskala upp och ger sällan realtidsinforThe alarming decline in global insect populations and diversity calls for improvedmonitoring methods with species specificity. Conventional trapping techniques arelabor-intensive and fail to provide real-time in situ data on species composition. Inresponse, novel remote and automated monitoring methods have emerged, offeringthe potential for high-resolution and efficient data collection. However,

A strong and prevailing innovation imperative is sweeping across the public sector and despite a growing literature on public sector innovation (PSI), the actors driving these processes tend to end up in the background of analysis.

The removal of lysozyme adsorbed to a hydrophobic surface by a non-ionic surfactant, C12E5, was investigated using in situ ellipsometry. Both the adsorption and removal of protein were studied at different protein and surfactant concentrations. The surfaces used were methylated silica surfaces and the experiments were carried out at pH 5.6 in 0.01 M NaCl solution.

Popular Abstract in SwedishEn av de viktigaste forskningsfrågorna inom matematikutbildning handlar om förståelse. Det huvudsakliga syftet med den här avhandlingen har varit att nå insikt i olika förståelseformer i skolmatematik och former av lärandeidentiteter i två lärandemiljöer. Avhandlingens specifika fokus var flexibla sätt att urskilja delar och avgränsa helheter och undersöka hur lärande inA central question in mathematics education research concerns understanding. The main objective of the present thesis has been to obtain insights into flexible modes of knowing in school mathematics in two school class contexts, and how these relate to modes of being a learner in these contexts, with specific focus on learners’ flexible ways of discerning parts and delimiting wholes, and how they

I cirkulära ekonomier förväntas konsumenter förlänga produkters livslängd och säkerställa att de återvinns—en betydande omställning från dagens ekonomiska system där linjära konsumtionssätt dominerar. För att stödja denna omställning behöver vi förstå hur cirkulär konsumtion (o)möjliggörs i olika kontexter som formats av linjär konsumtion, t. ex. detaljhandeln och hushåll. Syftet med denna avhandlIn circular economies, consumers are expected to extend product lifetimes and ensure recycling—a considerable departure from the linear take-make-dispose model. To support this shift, we need to understand how circular consumption is currently enabled in retail markets and how consumers navigate these tasks. Thus, in this dissertation, I aim to explore and conceptualise how circular consumption is

Popular science description The agrarian reforms of the 18th century were some of the most momentous historical events in Danish history. In the span of 30 years, half of all peasants went from living in a state of serfdom to owning and cultivating their own plots of land, free from the onerous ties of manorial dependence that they had toiled under for hundreds of years. In this pioneering dissert

Between 2014 and 2022, Sweden introduced a feminist foreign policy (FFP), which entailed a “systematic gender equality perspective throughout foreign policy”. This chapter focuses on how FFP was practiced and implemented by officials at Swedish Embassies around the world. Using a framework of practice theory, implementation theory and feminist institutionalism, the overarching questions guiding th

The aim of this thesis is to find an efficient simulation method of the Heston model of stochastic volatility to price path dependent derivatives. The volatility process in this model has an exact transition density defined as a scaled non central chi2 density. By implementing classic approaches of approximating the non central chi2 distribution, and modifying Andersen's Quadratic Exponential

Popular Abstract in Swedish Pi-konjugerade polymerer är ett viktigt slag av material. För det första så har det många eftertraktade fysikaliska egenskaper som förmågan att leda elektrisk ström, omvandla elektriska laddningar till ljus, eller omvänt, omvandla ljus till elektricitet. Dessa material tillämpas redan i stor utsträckning i dag som i exempelvis plattskärms-TV (OLED) och i mobiltelefoner.Π-conjugated polymers are an important class of materials which can be used in e.g. photoelectric (solar cells) or electroluminescent (displays) devices. These materials are implemented in a number of applications these days since a lot is already known about them. There is, however, still a lot to learn in order to increase the efficiency and reduce the power consumption of devices. There are man

More and more people become aware of climate change and that society needs to be adapted, so that damage can be minimized. Property owners, such as Riksbyggen, wants to be able to map the risks for their buildings. The purpose of this work is to find suitable methods for detailed risk mapping. First, a mapping has been conducted over damage on buildings that is linked to the climate in Scania. The

En fastighetsaffär är för många privatpersoner den överlägset största affären de gör i hela livet. Varje år säljs och köps småhus för över 124 miljarder. En undersökning från Länsförsäkringar visar att en tredjedel av alla köpare oroar sig för förekomsten av ”dolda fel” i den köpta fastigheten. Mot bakgrund av den oron är det inte så konstigt att konsumentrådgivningar och liknande organisationer fA real estate transaction is for many individuals by far the largest transaction they make throughout life. Each year, sold and bought houses makes up for a value of more than 124 billion SEK. A survey, by the insurance company Länsförsäkringar, shows that one third of all buyers are concerned about the existence of "latent defects" in the purchased property. Given the turmoil, it is not

Bakgrund: Hippoterapi och hästsimulator har vuxit fram som kompletterande interventioner vid neurologisk rehabilitering genom att utnyttja hästens eller simulatorns tredimensionella rörelsemönster. Tidigare forskning pekar generellt på förbättrad balans, gång, grovmotorik och funktionsförmåga vid flera neurologiska tillstånd.
