My goal with this project was to create a material solely from natural substa

According to optimal resource allocation theory, reproductive investment is determined by the trade-off between present and future reproduction and offspring quality and quantity. The immune system, including innate immune function, protects the body against disease-related mortality. As such, it can be representative of the bird´s survival prospects, and has the potential to influence the outcome

As the climate changes the risks to agriculture increases which is a threat to food security around the world. One such risk is an increase in rainfall which can lead to decreased crop yields. Sweden today is dependent on other countries for their food supply, however the countries it depends on will suffer more from climate related risks to their agriculture meaning that Sweden's own food pro

This thesis analyzes schoolchildren’s mental health development in five mental health-related variables when they gain internet access through 3G networks. A unique panel dataset using the HBSC with country-level 3G coverage is constructed. Using a TWFE strategy to estimate the effect on the five outcome variables, a decrease in mental health is found for both female and male children. The results

Zooplankton normally aggregate near the surface during the night to mate and feed. This behavior is known as Diel Vertical Migration and it is modulated by factors such as light intensity, predation risk, and turbulence. Near surface turbulence tend to result in deeper distribution of zooplankton, but it is still not clear how zooplankton assess the turbulence regime. Here, I propose an explanatio

Their similar molecular structures should, in theory, allow them to be used in the same range of applications as the sulphonated counterpart. However, the newer alternative also comes with novel challenges. While the thickening of a formulation with a sulphated s
