This review paper examines the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets postulated by a range of organizations seeking to reduce the consequences of global climate change and how, or if, the global tourism sector can achieve its share of those targets. It takes both existing estimates of current tourism GHG emissions and emissions projected in a business-as-usual scenario through to 2035 an
Background: Individuals undergoing radiation therapy for breast cancer frequently request information before, throughout and after the treatment as a means to reduce distress. Nevertheless, the provision of information to meet individuals needs from their level of health literacy is often overlooked. Thus, individuals information needs are often unmet, leading to reports of discontent. Internet an
Ridesharing is revolutionizing the transportation industry in many countries. Yet, the state of the art is based on heavily centralized services and platforms, where the service providers have full possession of the users’ location data. Recently, researchers have started addressing the challenge of enabling privacy-preserving ridesharing. The initial proposals, however, have shortcomings, as some
Den svenska spelmarknaden har fortsatt att växa trots rådande ekonomiska oro. Vadhållning på sportspel är den del av spelmarknaden som växt mest trots konkurrens från utländska spelbolag. Faktum är att AB Svenska Spel och Oddset endast beräknats besitta 6-7 % av den svenska livespelsmark-naden samtidigt som en ansenlig del av de oreglerade, utländska spelbola-gens omsättning från Sverige har kunnaThe Swedish gaming market has continued to grow despite the current eco-nomic crisis. Betting on sports is the part of the gaming market that has grown the most in spite of competition from foreign bookmakers. In fact, AB Svenska Spel and Oddset are calculated to possess only 6-7% of the Swedish live-betting market and at the same time a considerable part of the unregulated foreign bookmakers turn
Denna kandidatuppsats tar sin utgångspunkt i forskningsfältet förändringskommunikation. Syftet är att förstå och problematisera mellanchefers syn på sin kommunikativa funktion i en förändring, vad som påverkar deras synsätt och hur de kan motiveras att bidra. För att uppfylla studiens syfte har tio kvalitativa intervjuer genomförts i den valda kommunala organisationen. Studiens resultat visar att This bachelor’s thesis base is placed in the research field change communication and aims to understand and problematize middle managers view of their communicative function during change. Through the research we also aim to understand what influence the middle managers view and how they can be motivated to make a contribution. To fulfill the aim of the study we have done ten qualitative interview
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the Swedish stock market’s reaction of asset sale announcements and to see how the stated use of proceeds impacts the announcement effect. To fulfill the purpose the following research questions are asked: Is there an announcement effect associated with asset sales in general? Is the announcement effect, if any, dependent on the stated use of proceeds?
Den här uppsatsen behandlar frågan om det ondas problem, inom teologiska och religionsvetenskapliga kretsar mer känt som Teodicéproblemet. Till skillnad från liknande uppsatser som rör det ondas problem kommer den här uppsatsen inte att behandla frågan gällande Guds existens, ej heller kommer uppsatsen att behandla huruvida det ondas problem är ett bra argument mot Guds existens. Här kommer istäThis paper will address the issue of:” Why God allows evil”, also known as theodicy. Unlike similar essays concerning this question, this paper will not address the question in relation to the existence of a God, nor shall it address whether the problem of evil is a good argument against this existence. This paper will focus upon the function of evil with a focus on Judeo-Christian contexts. The

Våld i nära relationer är ett problem som drabbar människor oberoende av kön, ålder och härkomst. Totalt utsätts ca 5% av befolkningen årligen. Det är ett problem som orsakar stort lidande och har ekonomiska konsekvenser för samhället i stort. Historiskt sett har våldet inte ansetts utgöra något problem i de fall då det utövas av en man i sitt eget hem. Utvecklingen har gått mot att se det som ettDomestic violence is a problem that affects people regardless of gender, age and descent. In total, about 5% of the population is affected annually. It is a problem that causes great suffering and has economic consequences for society as a whole. Historically, domestic violence has not been considered a problem in cases where it is exercised by a man in his own home. Over time it has come to be re

The traditional design method for plate heat exchangers(PHEs), either epsilon-number of transfer units (epsilon-NTU) or logarithmic mean temperature difference method, involves many trials in order to meet the pressure drop constraints. This can be avoided through the developed design method, which takes the full utilization of the allowable pressure drops as a design objective. The proposed metho
Most of the decisive molecular events in biology take place at the protein-water interface. The dynamical properties of the hydration layer are therefore of fundamental importance. To characterize the dynamical heterogeneity and rotational activation energy in the hydration layer, we measured the 17O spin relaxation rate in dilute solutions of three proteins in a wide temperature range extending d
The process of becoming an Ig-producing plasma cell takes the mature B cell through the germinal center, where Ig genes are diversified through somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination. To more clearly define functional characteristics of the germinal center dark zone centroblasts and the light zone centrocytes, we have performed expression analysis of the CD77(+) and CD77(-) populatio
OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of a new microwave thermotherapy for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), the ProstaLund Feedback Treatment (PLFT, ProstaLund Operations AB, Lund, Sweden) and transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in a clinical trial to their effectiveness in clinical practice over 1 year, to estimate their cost over 1 year, and to evaluate the cost of re-interve
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ämnet hållfasthetslära behandlar metoder och principer för att kunna bestämma deformationer och spänningar i en fast kropp som utsätts för belastning. Avhandlingen behandlar skademekanik, vilket rör hur skador (porer, håligheter, mikrosprickor och dylikt) påverkar materialets egenskaper och hur skadorna påverkas av belastning. Vidare förutsätter skademekaniken att materPlasticity induced damage evolution is considered using a thermodynamical approach. Different postulates on how to include the effects of damage in the constitutive equations have been studied. The results reveal that a mapping, similar to that of the stress, of both the kinematic and isotropic hardening variables is to be preferred. The undesired property that, irrespectively of the postulate emp
Gene-environment interactions need to be studied to better understand the obesity. We aimed at determining whether genetic susceptibility to obesity associates with diet intake levels and whether diet intakes modify the genetic susceptibility. In 29,480 subjects of the population-based Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS), we first assessed association between 16 genome-wide association studies iden
This book explores the alternative futures of political community and moves beyond the critique of what is wrong with existing, state-based forms of political community. It does so not with the defence of a particular normative model of political community in mind, but rather in the quest for new ways of thinking about political community itself. Exploring how the political must be rethought in th
The Bolivian Altiplano is situated between two mountain ranges, the western and eastern central Andes in South America. It has two major lakes, Lake Titicaca to the north, and Lake Poopó to the south, which both are important for the nature as well as for the living conditions on the Altiplano. The two lakes are the remnants of large paleolakes. They are joined by the Desaguadero River. Lake Poopó
BACKGROUND: Simultaneous contact allergies to the reactive diluent phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE) and epoxy resins based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) or epoxy resins of the bisphenol F-type have been reported. The latter epoxy resins contain three isomers of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF). PGE, DGEBA, and DGEBF are chemically similar with respect to the reactive glycidyl group
