When it comes to taxation of housing cooperatives there is a difference in the tax law between the cooperatives the tax law regard as true and false respectively. True housing cooperatives have a milder taxation than the false cooperatives. The consequences, depending of which category the cooperative belongs to, will have an effect on the cooperative as well as its shareholders. Because of that,
This quantitative study of the alcohol use amongst students in Lund primarily rests on three general empirical findings: 1) Students in general constitute a part of the age group – young adults – who consume most alcohol per capita in Sweden. 2) The foundations of abnormal use of alcohol and alcoholism are believed to be established in early adulthood. 3) In monetary terms, alcoholism and other di
Nanoteknik är ‘big business’. Stora summor pengar står på spel då detta innovativa teknikområde expanderar i snabb takt. Denna undersökning utgår från antagandet att ekonomiska intressen snarare än demokratiska värden och hållbar utveckling styr utvecklingen av nanoteknik i Sverige idag. Detta ses som problematiskt, och det övergripande målet är att föreslå alternativa principer för att styra utveNanotechnology is big business. With rapid innovation and expansion of the field, financial stakes are high. This study is based on the assumption that the development of nanotechnology in Sweden today is controlled by economic interests rather than democratic values and sustainable development. This is considered problematic, and the overall aim with this study is to propose alternative principle
The purpose of this thesis was to explore the way the concept of family is defined in the legislation on family-related migration in Sweden and what implications this definition have for the applicants, for family-related migration and for the view on family in Sweden. The empirical material consisted of five individual, semi-structured interviews with officials working with cases concerning famil
BackgroundChildren with ADHD are reported to have lower dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) levels compared to typically developing children. We exploratively investigated how blink rate and pupil diameter, which are considered to be proxies for DA and NE signaling, were related to ADHD symptom severity. Moreover, we tested whether this relation is modulated by auditory white noise stimulation,
This study explores a novel approach to utilizing waste biomass for syngas production, with the potential for carbon sequestration. An integrated biomass conversion process combining pyrolysis, CO2 reforming, and MILD combustion is proposed. In the proposed system, the bio-oil obtained from pyrolysis can be used in a reforming step, converting it into syngas with a suitable H2/CO ratio for chemica
Spinosad: en pollinatörs mardröm Bekämpningsmedel är vanliga i jordbruket för att säkra skördar, men kan ha negativa effekter på nyttiga insekter. Spinosad, ett biologiskt bekämpningsmedel framställt ur bakterier och godkänt inom ekologiskt jordbruk i EU, angriper insekters nervsystem och orsakar muskelsammandragningar, förlamning och död. Mitt experiment visar att spinosad i fältrealistiska koncThe extensive use of pesticides within the agricultural landscape is essential for maintaining sufficient yields and sustaining our growing population, however, their widespread use is not without costs. Increasing evidence shows that pesticides harm many non-target organisms, including those providing vital ecosystem services. Pollinators, for instance, are critical for the fruiting of nearly 75%
Population growth and climate change have accelerated groundwater depletion globally. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) is a fairly new satellite remote sensing technique based on SAR images that offers a high-accuracy monitoring system of land surface motion driven by groundwater level changes in time and space that can never be achieved with point-in-situ measurements. In producti
