Kan Bogong fjärilar dofta sig till en säker plats? Att komma hem från en lång semester och lägger sig i sin egen säng, känna doften av ens egna kudde och lägenhet ger en känsla av säkerhet. Det är en doft av hemma, av trygghet som vi känner igen. Är det möjligt att få samma upplevelse med en doft man aldrig känt förut? Så kan det vara för Bogong fjärilen (Agrotis infusa). De är nattaktiva fjärilaThe Bogong moth Agrotis infusa is a long-distance nocturnal migrant whose navigational ability still remains only partly understood. They travel up to a thousand kilometres to the Australian Alps where they seek out the shelter of isolated cool alpine caves, thereby escaping the approaching summer heat of their breeding grounds. Once in the caves, they enter a state of dormancy over the coming sum

Denna uppsats rör frågan om avtalsmekanismen och avtalstolkning i förhållande till smarta kontrakt. Smarta kontrakt är datorprogram som laddas upp på en blockkedja i syfte att utföra någon form av transaktion mellan en eller flera parter. Genom att ladda upp de smarta kontrakten på en blockkedja, blir de omöjligt att ändra på i efterhand, vilket säkerställer att de exekverar.

Smart contracts are computer programs inserted on a blockchain, with the purpose of facilitating an exchange of digital goods between the parties. Blockchain technology is used to store smart contracts in order to imbue the smart contract with several useful qualities for contracting in a trustl

Plant-pollinator interactions are considered one of the primary factors driving the large diversity in floral traits. Adaptive floral trait diversification occurs when different pollinators show preference for different floral phenotypes imposing selection on, and potentially generating local adaptation, of floral traits in populations that interact with different insect communities. Plants in gen

Sammanfattning De institutionella investerarna utgör en viktig roll på aktiemarknaden, eftersom de står för majoriteten av aktieinnehav på den svenska aktiemarknaden. Det har framkommit att de institutionella investerarna har en restriktiv syn på incitamentsprogram som idag är ett vanligt förekommande fenomen i aktiemarknadsbolag. Med tanke på de institutionella investerarnas omfattande innehav pSummary Institutional investors account for the majority of shareholding on the Swedish stock market; therefore they also have an important role to play in this market. It has emerged that the institutional investors have a restrictive view of incentive programs, which today is a common phenomenon in listed companies.

Recent suggestions propose that the glacial landscape of southern Sweden is a relict landscape from the Saalian glaciation (>130 ka) (Lagerbäck, 2018). The primary argument supporting this viewpoint is the claimed observation that the majority of glaciofluvial deposits in this region exhibits a covering till bed, often accompanied by wind-abraded clasts (ventifacts) at the contact between glaciofl

Popular Abstract in English The production and use of bioethanol can help reducing the dependency on oil, and also represents a renewable source of energy. Bioethanol can be obtained from biomass such as agricultural and forest residues, after appropriate pretreatment and fermentation. This thesis addresses some of the challenges that must be overcome for the production of ethanol from biomass to The sustainable production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass requires the combination of efficient hydrolysis and complete fermentation of all the monomeric sugars present in the raw material. The present work was aimed at tackling some of the major challenges that will be encountered in commercial-scale ethanol production using Baker’s yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the preferred microorg

Kai Söderhjelm (b. 1918 in Helsinki, d. 1996 in Gothenburg) belonged to a Finland-Swedish cultural family, and was for many years an important and valuable figure in the intellectual life of Sweden. Söderhjelm’s authorship follows the same clear thematic lines from his first book, Rid mot nordväst (1948; Ride to the northwest), to his last, Okänt land (1993; Unknown land). These themes are peace,

For the “Street Art, the City and the Public: Changing the Urban Vision” session at International Visual Sociology Association conference 2013, I discussed the unsanctioned nature of street art and the way it may influence our perception of public space. Taking as a point of departure George Simmel’s well-known thoughts on the blasé urban resident, I see public space as being dominated by individ

Popular Abstract in Swedish Projektioner om framtida klimat i Arktis och subarktis tyder på att drastiska förändrinar väntar regionen under det närmaste århundradet. Inte bara temperaturen spås öka utan även nederbörd, och då framför allt nederbörden under vinterhalvåret. Dessa förändringar kommer sannolikt att ha stor inverkan på miljön i Arktis och subarktis, och stora forksningsansträngningar hClimate projections indicate that Arctic and sub-Arctic regions are facing a significant change in climate during the 21st century. With warmer temperatures precipitation is also expected to increase, and in particular winter precipitation. These changes are likely to have large impacts on the Arctic and subarctic environment, and extensive research has focused on ecosystem-climate interactions in

Popular Abstract in Swedish Men älskar du honom? Så frågar en ung flicka på 1820-talet sin syster Henrietta som just skall gifta sig. Nej det gör Henrietta inte men hon böjer sig för den krassa verkligheten, behovet att bli försörjd. Den stillsamma frågan anger något som kan tolkas som en tyst revolution: övergången från en äldre syn på äktenskapet som ett ekonomiskt kontrakt till en uppfattning aThe main theme of this dissertation is the question of how young women in the early middle class handled the new demands for marriage based on love instead of on judgements of moral, economy and status. Another theme is the education of these middle class girls around 1800 and the question how this new education interacted with the new demands for love marriage. The German social historian Ulrike

In Danish literature from the early 1970s, it was suggested that the freedom of speech should have a preferred position in relation to other constitutional rights. In a case from the Norwe-gian Supreme Court in 1976, judicial review of the constitutionality of legislation was divided in three categories. Constitutional rules about the freedom and security of the individual should be supervised mos

Popular Abstract in Swedish För att celler ska kunna växa och dela sig behöver de många olika ämnen, till exempel vitaminer, mineraler och polyaminer. Polyaminer finns i alla celler och de krävs för att cellerna ska kunna dela eller specialisera sig. Cellerna kan både själva tillverka polyaminer och ta upp dem från omgivningen. I mänskliga celler finns framför allt de tre polyaminerna putrescin, sOur research group has previously shown that treatment with the polyamine biosynthesis inhibitors a-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) or amidinoindan-1-one 2´-amidinohydrazone (CGP 48664) inhibited S phase progression before any other cell cycle phase was affected. This study was undertaken to further investigate the role of polyamines in the regulation of S phase progression and DNA synthesis. I hav
