Introduction: Heterogeneity in composition and spatial configuration of landscape elements support diversity and abundance of flower-visiting insects, but this is likely dependent on taxonomic group, spatial scale, weather and climatic conditions, and is particularly impacted by agricultural intensification. Here, we analyzed the impacts of both aspects of landscape heterogeneity and the role of c
This dataset features geocoding for the complete population of:Landskrona at the block-level from 1904-1967;Landskrona at the address-level from 1939-1967; andKävlinge at the block-level from 1939-1967.All these populations are part of the Scanian Economic-Demographic Database (SEDD). SEDD is a high-quality, longitudinal database that covers five Scanian parishes: Halmstad, Hög, Kågeröd, Kävlinge,
Abstract : We present the first a priori derivation of a many-body theory for EXAFS with clearly defined approximations and with final expressions which are feasible for quantitative evaluations. We conclude that the conventional EXAFS expression should be complemented with a term that crudely is the main term, energy-shifted and scaled down by a factor of order 0.2-0.3. Further the f-factors depe
Det är viktigt att förstå att de insatser som görs för att förbättra skolan alltid baseras på både kunskapssyn och människosyn. Att kräva att alla elever får stöd i tid och har engagerade och kunniga lärare visar på en samtida kunskaps- och människosyn, grundad i forskning om lärande och barns utveckling.
Deflationism about truth is often said to be incompatible with truth-theoretic semantics. However, both of these labels are ambiguous, making the truth of the incompatibility claim dependent on interpretation. I provide one pair of natural interpretations, on which both views relate essentially to grounding and on which they are indeed incompatible. This result has some intrinsic interest as well
Business implications of the recent surge in populism in societal and academic discourse have been relatively neglected. This is surprising, considering that corporations provide financial support (e.g., donations and political action committees), intellectual resources (e.g., think tanks and public relations firms) and informational channels (e.g., social media platforms) that populist parties an
Since the arrival, or the attempted arrival, of millions of refugees in Europe, the performances of the Center for Political Beauty – a Berlin-based collective of artists and activists – have had a huge impact on public and political debates about Germany's migration policies. In this paper, I analyze the performance “The Dead Are Coming” in which the artists buried refugees who drowned in their a
The challenge to develop sustainable products increases as resources becomes scarcer. Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) and Ecodesign have emerged to diminish product environmental impact from material gaining to disposal. LCA methods and tools, however, were not conceived to spur product design activities and decisions towards sustainable End-of-life (EoL) product conception, while Ecodesign requires ma
In today’s competitive marketplace, robotics and HRI is an exciting new paradigm for changing how work is done in organisations. Its potential success depends on how HRI fit to humans and other technologies in an organisation. The paper argues that the Human-Technology-Organisation framework may be used as an analytic tool to widen the understanding of prerequisites for successful development, imp
Infectious and parasitic agents (IPAs) and their associated diseases are major environmental stressors that jeopardize bee health, both alone and in interaction with other stressors. Their impact on pollinator communities can be assessed by studying multiple sentinel bee species. Here, we analysed the field exposure of three sentinel managed bee species (Apis mellifera, Bombus terrestris and Osmia
F1 and F2 frequencies of the vowels /i/, /a/ and /u/ were measured in speech directed to an infant and to adults. The vowels were taken from content words as well as function words. The results showed that the vowel triangles in speech to the infant were expanded compared to those in speech to adults, but only in the content words. For function words, the opposite pattern was found: adults produce
Several ribonucleases of the RNase A family function as antibacterial, anti-parasitic and anti-viral agents. In this work, we have shown that mRNAs encoding five of the six known human ribonucleases of the RNase A family are expressed in cultured human monocytes, and that ribonucleases are released by adherent monocytes in culture. Using a polyclonal antiserum prepared against recombinant protein,
