It was in the early 1980s when Peter Ryan from the University of Cape Town started investigating ecological and conservational factors surrounding the endemic Nesospiza finches in the Tristan da Cunha archipelago, a curious case of resource-driven bird diversification in the Southern Atlantic. Ryan and others suggests for the radiation of Tristan finches to have happened around 400,000 years ago,
Concerns about energy-related emissions and energy dependence and security while also achieving the SDGs are fuelling the rising interest in socio-technical transitions towards more sustainable energy systems. Community energy projects have been proposed as a tool for this transition to renewable energy, but little is known about its potential to foster the wider transformation of the energy syste
Lagen om hemlig dataavläsning trädde i kraft den 1 april 2020 trots att infö-randet hade ifrågasatts av flertalet remissinstanser. Hemlig dataavläsning är en metod varigenom de brottsbekämpande myndigheterna medelst ett tek-niskt hjälpmedel bereder sig tillgång till en kommunikationsutrustning och tar del av de uppgifter som finns i den. Ett införande av hemliga tvångsme-del måste vara förenligt mThe Secret Data Interception Act came into force on 1 April 2020 despite the fact that the adoption of the law had been questioned by several consulta-tion bodies. Secret data interception is a clandestine coercive measure through which the law enforcement agencies access a communication device and obtain the information found therein. The utilization of clandestine co-ercive measures must be comp
In this paper I will set out to show what effect the intended audience of a text has on how one approaches the translation of word play as it appears in comic strips, and how one should analyze those translation. I will do this by analyzing a set of comic strips, all featuring an instance of wordplay which combines the visual and textual elements of the text, which I translated according to metric
If human rights are to be enjoyed by every person regardless of origin or nationality; if human rights are the rights of the human being under any circumstances, then the best way to gauge the quality and depth of our systems of protection of human rights will be to examine the extent to which these are enjoyed by their most genuine recipients: those deprived of wealth and citizenship, a home and
FN-stadgans våldsförbud sätter upp ett absolut förbud mot våldsanvändning stater emellan, och endast en situation av självförsvar eller med mandat från säkerhetsrådet kan en stat få rätt att göra undantag från förbudet. Detta till trots finns det många exempel på fall av våldshandlingar som går utanför förbudets ramar, så kallade humanitära interventioner, och man har i dessa situationer hänvisat The UN Charter sets up an absolute prohibition on the use of force between states, and only a situation of self-defense or a mandate from the Security Council can give the right to make exceptions to the ban. Despite this, there are many examples of cases of violence that goes beyond the prohibition framework, so-called humanitarian interventions, and to justify those operations references to inte
Denna uppsats undersöker hur vårt förhållande till krukväxter utifrån ett klassperspektiv kan spegla olika subjektspositioner. Syftet är att genom intervjuer med krukväxtägare visa på krukväxtens funktion i deras subjektspositionering. Materialet består av transkriberade intervjuer med sex olika informanter i deras hem. Till min hjälp att tolka materialet har jag använt mig av den franske kulturso

This essay is about drinking cups in the symposion setting on painted ceramic. The goal of this essay is to study different kinds of cups and how they were used. I found two main kinds of cups kylix and skyphoi. The kylix was more represented then the skyphoi. I also found that kottabos was one of the most represented motive. And I also focus on difference of black and red figure vases. The method
Effects of flow are a fundamental part of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Since almost every part of the body contains some kind of flow, the effects are seen in generally all MR images. The presence of flow in an image slice may be a vast source of artefacts but the effects of flow can also be used for diagnostic purposes, for example in magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). In MRA, flow effect
Hotspot tracks (chains of seamounts, ridges, and other volcanic structures) provide important records of plate motions, as well as mantle geodynamics, magma flux, and mantle source compositions. The Tristan-Gough-Walvis Ridge (TGW) hotspot track, extending from the active volcanic islands of Tristan da Cunha and Gough through a province of guyots and then along Walvis Ridge to the Etendeka flood b
Purpose: To report on the ophthalmic findings in children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) in southern Sweden, and to investigate the frequency of refractive errors, strabismus and cerebral visual impairment associated with this condition. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study including all paediatric patients with TSC in southern Sweden born between 1983 and 2020. Medical records we
This paper focuses on how older people in Sweden imagine the potential role of robots in their lives. The data collection involved mixed methods, including focus groups, a workshop, a questionnaire and interviews. The findings obtained and lessons learnt from one method fed into another. In total, 88 older people were involved. The results indicate that the expectations and preconceptions about ro
This thesis deals with the physics of turbulent swirling flows. Large eddy simulation (LES) method is used to investigate the vortex breakdown process, the precessing vortex core (PVC), and the effect of swirl number and flow field configuration on swirling flows. The study is based on an open source CFD code, \textit{OpenFoam}. Turbulent swirling flows are widely used in combustion devices such a
The dissertation can be divided into two parts, the first of which is a detailed analysis of three excavations concerning Mellanbyn in southern Malmö. In the second part I study the more general development of society, relating Mellanbyn to the surrounding area as well as to the region as a whole during Late Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age. The aim can be summed up as being to study the developm
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den enorma variationen av beteenden och utseenden som återfinns i djurriket har i alla år fascinerat och länge förbryllat biologer. Rovdjurens skoningslösa utgallring är en av de stora drivkrafterna bakom evolutionen av alla dessa karaktärsdrag. Rovdjuren är såklart även en viktig strukturerande kraft i sötvattensmiljöer och har där lett till utvecklingen av mängder av The varieties of prey phenotypes that have been revealed in nature are vast and many of these phenotypes are the result of the selective force that predators have had on prey traits in the past. Even within species and populations we see variations due to both differences in the selection forces they live under but also due to individual trait variation. In this thesis I investigate both the direc
SUBJECT: Hypertension represents the most commonly encountered complication of pregnancy. Normal levels of blood pressure (BP) need to be established in each pregnant population in order to recognize pathology. A lack of studies from our own country and certain methodological objections to early studies motivated this study. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Six hundred pregnant women were included in a histo
Abstract Dog bites to the hand and forearm are common. Although bites are usually minor, aggressive dogs may cause extensive bites developing to a public health problem. In a database review of dog bites to the hand applied to Emergency Department or to the Department of Hand Surgery in Malmö, Sweden 2008-2009, we found 81 cases [42 men and 39 women; median age 45 (range 2-88) years]. Three of 81
