Restoring cultivated peatlands has become a silver bullet in climate change mitigation policies globally due to peatlands’ potentials to sequester carbon. In Denmark, carbon is the focal point for such interventions but simultaneously conspicuous by its absence in local restoration efforts. Scientific abstractions render carbon visible through maps and models presenting soil’s carbon content, emisRestoring cultivated peatlands has become a silver bullet in climate change mitigation policies globally due to peatlands’ potentials to sequester carbon.

How does the European Union ensure member state compliance? And why doesn?t it seem to function on the area of the Common European Asylum Politics? Several reports have the past few years alerted the European Union of possible violations of the rights of refugees in Greece, violations that are in direct conflict with several key regulations and directives, such as the Dublin Regulation. The Europe

Vi kommer i denna uppsats försöka svara på om jämställdhet ökar demokratin i besluts-fattande församlingar. I denna uppsats har vi valt att jämföra Sveriges regering med EU- kommissionen. Arbetet med att skapa en jämn könsfördelning på politiskt beslutsfattande nivå, tog på allvar fart i Sverige 1993 på socialdemokraternas partikongress. Då röstades förslaget igenom att varannan valbar kandidat t

This article outlines an experimental and theoretical comparison between the fib 2000 model for elastic modulus of normal concrete, NC, and HPC and 144 laboratory tests. Two dimensions of specimen were studied (diameters 56 and 100 mm) and one climate (20 degreesC, sealed or with ambient relative humidity, RE, 60%). The age dependence did not seem to be well correlated between the derived and the

Lifetimes of fine-structure levels in 2s2p3p D-4 and 2s2p3d F-4(o) quartets are calculated in the boron isoelectronic sequence, for C II to F V, using a multiconfiguration Hartree-Fock approach. These quartets are known from earlier experimental and theoretical studies to have different lifetimes for different J-levels, owing to spin-induced transitions, mainly to doublet states in 2s(2)2p and 2s2

Background and Objectives. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive disease. Patients with this malignancy have a median survival of 3 years. To better understand disease progression, which is characterized by increased proliferation, we analyzed the gene expression of MCL with different proliferative indices, as determined by immunohistochemical staining for Ki-67. Furthermore, primary and rel
