Major threats to biodiversity and ecosystem persistence are fragmentation of habitats and declining population sizes. For conservation biologists to understand the consequences of declining populations for the long term persistence and recovery of species worldwide, it is important to know and understand the underlying causes of potential threats, such as the depletion of genetic diversity, which

In 2015 the world experienced the largest refugee crises of modern history. This thesis aims to study Angela Merkel’s approach to it 2015-2017 according to four themes: a) division of refugees within the European Union; b) security for German citizens and refugees; c) combat of reasons for refugees to escape; d) economical dimensions. These themes are studied by using idea, argument and comparativ

I denna uppsats utreds vilket ansvar en internetleverantör har när de fungerar som mellanhand och tillhandahåller internetuppkoppling vid tredje mans intrång i upphovsrätt, då intrången sker genom att tillgängliggöra verk för streaming. Streaming är sedan några år tillbaka det vanligaste sättet att se på film som tillgängliggjorts på ett olagligt sätt. Det är inte straffbart att till exempel se p

The European Security Strategy adopted by the European Council in 2003 states that forging strategic partnerships with key actors is a priority in EU foreign policy. In 2007 such a strategic partnership was established with Brazil, based on shared fundamental values and principles such as democracy, rule of law, promotion of human rights and basic freedoms and a market-based economy. Both partners

The increase in the number of base station (BS) antennas calls for efficient solutions to deal with the increased interconnection bandwidth and processing complexity of traditional centralized approaches. Decentralized approaches are thus gaining momentum, since they achieve important reductions in data/processing volume by preprocessing the received signals before forwarding them to a central nod

Nodding syndrome is an emerging disease which have unknown transmission patterns and no properly established mechanisms for diagnosis leading to numerous hypothetical postulations. It has affected thousands of children in Uganda with debilitating effect and serious economic consequences. Spatial-temporal analysis may provide a quick mechanism to establish comparative understanding of the various h

This thesis explores the hillfort at Hälleberga Backe, dated between 400 – 700 AD, from landscape analysis methods like viewshed and least cost path (LCP) analysis, and the distribution of archaeological features and finds found in Göinge dated to the Late Iron Age. The primary interpretation of the hillfort’s function was as a watch tower or central point along the Alma and Helge Rivers, contro

The identification of top quark decays where the top quark has a large momentum transverse to the beam axis, known as top tagging, is a crucial component in many measurements of Standard Model processes and searches for beyond the Standard Model physics at the Large Hadron Collider. Machine learning techniques have improved the performance of top tagging algorithms, but the size of the systematic

Among the current indoor positioning technologies, Bluetooth low energy (BLE) has gained increasing attention. In particular, the traditional distance estimation derived from aggregate RSS and signal-attenuation models is generally unstable because of the complicated interference in indoor environments. To improve the adaptability and robustness of the BLE positioning system, we propose making ful

A piece of lead with imprints from a coin die and the early minting in Lund. At an archaeological excavation in central Lund in the early 1970s a very unusual find was retrieved: a piece of lead with several imprints from a coin die. The motif and the runic inscription on the lead plate indicate that the die derives from Sven Estridsen’s minting during his late years as king of Denmark. The find i

Consider a stationary normal process ξ(t) with mean zero and the covariance function r(t). Properties of the sample functions in the neighborhood of zeros, upcrossings of very high levels, etc. have been studied by, among others, Kac and Slepian, 1959 [4] and Slepian, 1962 [11]. In this paper we shall study the sample functions near local maxima of height u, especially as u → -∞, and mainly use si

The European energy market has undergone a large transformation in the last 20 years. It has gone from being a market strictly controlled by the Member States and dominated by state monopolies to being a privatized market under the rules of the market economy. This process has as its main aim to create a free and unified European energy market characterized by productive competition. A number of s

The Swedish Arts Council supports, develops and initiates interaction between the state, the regions, municipalities and representatives for cultural life in Sweden. Since 1975 the Swedish National Council has provided literature grants for book publishers, who applies and are chosen for their newly produced titles. In order to get a grant the title has to meet certain criterias, such as high lite
