I denna studie undersöks bildningsprocesser och klimatologisk betydelse av hur av årsmoräner bildas vid Gornergletscher, en stor alpin dalglaciär i de södra schweiziska Alperna. Ett särskilt fokus ligger på moränryggar som har bildats mellan 2007 och 2019, en period då glaciären har retirerat snabbt och det har skett en tydlig förtunning av isfronten. Dessa moräner uppvisar olika geomorfologiska o
Denna uppsats har undersökt det folkrättsliga ramverket bakom EU’s autonoma sanktioner mot Ryssland. Efter Rysslands folkrättsstridiga handlingar mot våldsförbudet och non-interventionsprincipen i Ukraina 2014, antog EU ett paket av olika åtgärder mot de som ansetts ansvariga och mot viktiga sektorer av den ryska ekonomin. Sanktionerna är autonoma eftersom de har antagits oberoende av någon resoluThis thesis has examined the international legal framework for the EU’s autonomous sanctions against Russia. Following Russia’s breaches of the obligations of non-use of force and non-intervention in Ukraine in 2014, the EU adopted a package of different measures against those deemed responsible and against key sectors of the Russian economy. The sanctions are autonomous since they are imposed ind
PFAS are a group of persistent and harmful chemicals that are widely used in both industrial applications and consumer products. PFAS are commonly detected in the environment and pose health concerns. Adsorption by GAC is considered an effective treatment method for removing PFAS from water. After a certain period of operation, GAC requires high-temperature incineration as disposal method. Another
INTRODUCTION: Left ventricular (LV) longitudinal function is a prognostic marker of hospitalization and mortality in LV dysfunction. Recently, left atrial (LA) reservoir and conduit strain have also been presented as independent prognostic markers. However, the atria and ventricles are coupled in the fibrous atrioventricular plane (LA-LV coupling). The degree to which the LA strain is affected, or
Syfte: Syftet med kandidatuppsatsen är att beskriva och undersöka hur nedskrivningsprövning av goodwill i enlighet med IAS 36 har gått till och redovisats i fem goodwillintensiva börsnoterade koncerner under perioden 2005 - 2013. Metod: Uppsatsen är utformad som en fallstudie med kvalitativ ansats. Data¬insamlingen består uteslutande av sekundärdata, med ett stort fokus på objektens årsredovisningPurpose: The purpose of the thesis is to describe and investigate how five public groups with significant goodwill have accounted their goodwill impairment testing in accordance with IAS 36 standard during the time period of 2005 - 2013. Methodology: The thesis is shaped as a case study with a qualitative approach. The collection of data consists solely of secondary data collected through annual r
En sammanställning av större geoenergianläggningar i Sverige har i samband med detta arbete gjorts. Arton anläggningar med bergvärme, borrhålslager, högtemperaturlager samt akfiverlager ingår i denna. Utifrån information om dessa anläggningars drift har rekommendationer för mätpunkter getts för att bättre säkra mätning och driftuppföljning. Geoenergi är Sveriges tredje största förnybara energikällShallow geothermal energy is the third biggest renewable source of energy in Sweden. Low-temperature energy stored in the ground and groundwater is collected by a ground heat exchanger with circulating brine and a ground source heat pump, GSHP. It is possible to extract both heating energy and cooling energy in these systems; in the winter the earth is utilised as a heat source, and in the summer
This master thesis is made in cooperation with Assa Abloy ES in Landskrona, Sweden. The purpose was to investigate the arm system for automatic swing door operators and set up an optimized theoretical model for a new PULL arm system with increased closing torque. The reason why the firm wants to get a more detailed view of the arm system is because of the present prevailing issue with non closing
This thesis is to look into media representation on issues that involve female marriage migrants, in particular, in relation to citizenship, in Singapore, one of the most popular destinations of marriage migration in Asia. Categorized and labeled as “foreign brides” in Singapore, these foreign-born women have long suffered from biased or one-dimensional representation in the local media, particula
Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Antikroppar, även kallade immunoglobuliner, är proteiner som utgör en viktig del i vårt försvar mot infektioner genom att de kan binda och neutralisera ämnen som uppfattas som främmande, t ex bakterier, virus eller produkter som produceras av dessa organismer. Antikropparna består av en antigen-bindande variabel del som binder till de
The clinical course in urinary bladder cancer is difficult or impossible to predict based on conventional disease parameters. It is a reasonable hypothesis that the genetic aberrations acquired by the tumor cells, being instrumental in bringing about the disease in the first place, may also hold the key to more reliable prognostication. However, though 200 transitional cell carcinomas (TCC), the m
Background: Human breast tissue undergoes phases of proliferation, differentiation and regression regulated by changes of the levels of circulating sex hormones during the menstrual cycle or aging. Ovarian hormones also likely play a key role in the etiology and biology of breast cancer. Reports concerning the proliferative effects of steroid hormones on the normal epithelium of human breast have
Power supply systems play a very important role in applications of everyday life. Mainly, for low power generation, there are two ways of producing energy: electrochemical batteries and small engines. In the last few years many improvements have been carried out in order to obtain lighter batteries with longer duration but unfortunately the energy density of 1 MJ/kg seems to be an asymptotic value
Graptolites and some trilobites from Middle–Upper Ordovician siliciclastic and calcareous rocks in Scania (Skåne), southern Sweden, and Jämtland, central Sweden, are described and discussed. Their stratigraphic distribution is discussed on the basis of new and old collections from outcrops and drill cores. The uppermost Middle–Upper Ordovician of Scania consists predominantly of mudstones and dark
