1. Net primary production (NPP) by terrestrial ecosystems appears to be proportional to absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (APAR) on a seasonal and annual basis. This observation has been used in 'diagnostic' models that estimate NPP from remotely sensed vegetation indices. In 'prognostic' process-based models carbon fluxes are more commonly integrated with respect to leaf area index ass
Purpose – Despite a growing interest in both women and university academic entrepreneurship, there are very few studies addressing women's academic entrepreneurship. The authors address this gap by focusing on university incubators for women's academic entrepreneurship. The purpose of this paper is to examine and analyze the significance of university incubators for the promotion and development o
England har i dagsläget beslutat att ej anta den förslagna EU- förordningen om behörighet, tillämplig lag, erkännande och verkställighet av domar och officiella handlingar i samband med arv och om inrättandet av ett europeiskt arvsintyg. England deltar dock i de pågående förhandlingarna mellan medlemsstaterna rörande förordningen och en ratificering är fortfarande möjlig. Enligt England omfattar hTo date England has decided not to opt into the proposed EU Regulation on jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition and enforcement of decisions and authentic instruments in matters of succession and the creation of a European Certificate.

Trots att den psykiska ohälsan ökar, upplevs det fortfarande som stigmatiserande. En vanlig orsak till detta är okunskap. I forskning har det framkommit att människor erhåller mycket av sin kunskap genom filmer, varvid den framställning som görs i film påverkar den förståelse och de attityder som omgivning kommer ha till psykisk ohälsa. En film där psykisk ohälsa är central är “A star is born” fråAlthough mental illness is an increasing problem, it’s still stigmatizing. A reason for this is a lack of knowledge. Research has shown that people obtain much of their knowledge through films, whereby the presentation made in movies affects the understanding and the attitudes that the environment will have to mental illness. A film where mental illness is central is "A star is born" fro
Det snabba skiftet inom bilindustrin mot elektiska fordon sätter stor press på inte bara biltillverkare, utan på hela försörjningskedjan för elbilar. Detta innefattar litiumjonbattericeller som är det mest moderna sättet att lagra energi i elbilar. Den tekniska utvecklingen av litiumjonceller drivs i stor utsträckning av behoven från biltillverkare. Under det senaste årtiondet har det inneburit atThe rapid transformation of the automotive industry to electric vehicles is putting immense pressure on not just vehicle manufacturers (OEMs), but the entire battery electric vehicle (BEV) supply chain. This includes lithium-ion battery cells, the current state-of-the-art technology for energy storage in BEVs. The technological development within lithium-ion battery cells, which is greatly driven
This study examines the process of gentrification. In so doing, the main aim is to explore a context wherein the process of gentrification is deemed unconventional. The context deemed unconventional is the one beyond the city, more accurately a coastal hamlet called Brantevik, located in the municipality of Simrishamn, in the southeastern part of the Scania region. By investigating whether Brantev
Tidstrender i unga mäns exponering för bekämpningsmedel via analys av urinprov Dagligen exponeras befolkningen för en mängd olika ämnen som visats ha egenskaper som kan ge negativa hälsoeffekter och öka risken för bland annat Parkinson’s sjukdom. Bekämpningsmedel som används inom jordbruk står för en del av dessa ämnen. Vissa ämnen har förbjudits för användning på livsmedel i Sverige och EU till
Instead of investing 145 billion SEK in building a new high speed rail network, much greater value in terms of transport capacity is likely to be found in constructing a new system of tube transport with a travel speed of 600 km/h. The suggested technology does not exist yet. However, research and development is advancing and accepting that a new technology is emerging might be the greatest hurdle
County museums were for a long time one of the main actors in Swedish cultural resource management (CRM) archaeology. In the late 1990s, however, Swedish CRM archaeology faced a new system: a tender-alike procedure. The introduction of competition into CRM archaeology has produced a series of positive, as well as a series of negative, consequences. One effect is that several county museums have ce
Retro game collecting An ethnological study of the creation of an identity by people who collect older video and computer games The purpose of this ethnological thesis is to examine and analyse how the meaning of the informants' retro video game collections is created, what is considered valuable in the retro game collecting community and how this community affects the informants’ creation of

This study focuses on children’s participation in child welfare investigations. Interviews were conducted with four child welfare caseworkers from the social services to understand how they view children’s participation and how they work to support it. The study aims to gain a better understanding of how caseworkers see children being involved, and what factors make it easier or more difficult for

Background: In Sweden 70,000 people suffer fragility fractures annually, including 16,000 hip fractures with one-year mortality of up to 25%. Strategies to prevent falls, improve physical function, and enhance bone strength have shown mixed results. Aim: To evaluate the incidence of hip and other fragility fractures following a fracture prevention intervention and assess baseline risk factors for

Academic analytical frameworks can help.European countries, and Denmark in particular, are scrambling to respond to threats from US officials over the future of Greenland.Having successfully taken out the leadership of Venezuela in a raid on January 3, an emboldened US government is talking about simply taking Greenland for itsel
This paper takes a critical look at current methodologies used by business for assessing impacts on indigenous communities dependent upon natural resources for the maintenance of their traditional way of life. It argues that new human-centered, holistic and bottom-up approaches can contribute to a greater understanding of direct, indirect and cumulative impacts of resource development on indigenou
Global value chains are essential to understanding globalization in the nature of export-oriented markets and commodity flows to end-markets. Developing countries have experienced a recent wave of economic structural adjustment and introduced export-based reforms as an approach to pro-poor growth. This thesis takes South Africa’s post-apartheid wine industry as a case study to understanding the ac
The international attempts to build peace and democracy in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) are considered the most extensive in the modern era. In line with neo-liberal theories on development and the New Policy Agenda, substantial amounts of ODA have been directed towards strengthening the civil society in the country and one of the focus areas in this work has been the creation and support of a com
