Anthropogenically induced changes in precipitation are projected to generate increased river runoff to semi-enclosed seas, increasing loads of terrestrial dissolved organic matter and decreasing salinity. To determine how bacterial community structure and functioning adjust to such changes, we designed microcosm transplant experiments with Baltic Proper (salinity 7.2) and Bothnian Sea (salinity 3.
It is a common belief that embedded expanding inclusions are subjected to an internal homogeneous compressive hydrostatic stress. Still, cracks that appear in precipitates that occupy a larger volume than the original material, are frequently observed. The appearance of cracks has since long been regarded as a paradox. In the present study it is shown that matrix materials that increases its volum
2015 was a year of an unprecedented migration from the Middle East to Europe. Sweden received almost 163,000 asylum applications. The civil society, including the former state church, took a notable responsibility. In a situation where the welfare systems are increasingly strained, and both the welfare state and the majority church are re-regulated, we ask: how does this play out in local contexts
Spotted fever group (SFG) Rickettsia species are inoculated into the mammalian bloodstream by hematophagous arthropods. Once in the bloodstream and during dissemination, the survival of these pathogens is dependent upon the ability of these bacteria to evade serum-borne host defenses until a proper cellular host is reached. Rickettsia conorii expresses an outer membrane protein, Adr1, which binds
The history of commercial exploitation of fish stocks is replete with instances of over-exploitation and stock collapse. Particularly in situations where little is known about a species or a particular fish stock, unregulated expansion into new fisheries may effectively wipe out a species or stock before its existence is even formally recognised or understood. Globally, there has been a strong int
During the last decades, there has been continuous development of nationwide quality registries to assess healthcare and to do research in Sweden. An important background motive is the demographic transition resulting from an increasingly ageing population as one of the most important challenges of our time and a growing concern in many European countries and elsewhere. One condition for meeting t
Research Data Management (RDM) is a process that is designed to deliver high quality datasets, which comply with scholarly, legal and ethical requirements. There are two outputs of the RDM process: 1. Long term preservation of datasets through archiving 2. Sharing and reuse of datasets for further research and other purposes in society at large. This proposal outlines the creation of a coherent

At a time when e-commerce is thriving and companies have to work with large quantities of data, there has been an increase of security risks. To stay current and afloat amidst and after the pandemic, the companies need to keep their consumers satisfied and safe. As threats to information systems become more advanced the companies need to stay on top of their game, and keep these risks from becomin
Israel was officially declared as an independent state in 1948. A time when the modernistic ideology peaked around the globe, although it had been the dominant urban planning paradigm since the early 1920s. The large number of migrants moving to the newly formed nation stressed the need of rapid urban development. The large influx of people also attracted many planners and architects from the west
It is crucial for a society to keep track of a serious phenomenon such as homicide, but also its underlying process. Having access to high-quality data enables this. Sweden has in the last few years seen an increase in deadly shootings, which has prompted societal debate regarding the matter. But very seldom does the overall context come into question -- how the general homicide tendencies have ch
I flera årtionden har konflikten mellan Israel och Palestina härjat i mellanöstern och varit ett hot mot freden. Konflikten går långt tillbaka i tiden men eskalerade kraftigt då Storbritannien lämnade över mandatet av det palestinska territoriet till FN, kort efter andra världskrigets slut, som i sin tur fattade beslutet om att försöka skapa en tvåstatslösning för territoriet. Konflikten, som än i
Globally, there is an intensification of agriculture that puts high pressure on local eco-systems. Soil degradation and deforestation are some effects that in the long-term perspectives cause agricultural degradation. Still, UN projects that we would need to increase our food production by 70 per cent to supply our growing population with food. Currently, we are facing intense urbanisation and in
This Master’s thesis aims to examine how the archive educators whitin the public archives in Sweden mediate knowledge about source criticism for pupils in elementary- and upper secondary schools. Internet sites like Wikipedia and the social network site Facebook have been the primary inforamtion resource for children och young adults for many years. Previous Research and scrutiny have also shown t
EU:s statsstödsregler är en del av EU-rätten som har haft stor inflytelse i konkurrenspolitiken bland medlemsländerna. Sverige har under sina 25 års medlemskap inom EU har påverkats och det berör dessutom kommunernas handlingsmöjligheter med att sälja offentliga markområden eller fastigheter till privata aktörer. Denna uppsats kommer att fokusera sig på otillåtna kommunala överlåtelser som anses sEU’s State Aid rules are a part of the EU law that have had great influence in the competition politics amongst the member states of the EU. Sweden has been highly affected by these rules during its 25 years membership in the EU, and it is affecting the ability for the municipalities to sell public land or buildings to private actors. This thesis is going to mainly focus on the unauthorized transf
By creating our own measure of cost efficiency we were able to examine the relation between competition and cost efficiency in the swedish upper-secondary school body. We conclude that there is no obvious connection between the two and that, as such, we cannot establish a positive or negative effect of competition on cost efficiency. When examining the methodological choices of our paper we discus

The purpose of the current article is to support the investigation of linguistic relativity in second language acquisition and sketch methodological and theoretical prerequisites toward developing the domain into a full research program. We identify and discuss three theoretical-methodological components that we believe are needed to succeed in this enterprise. First, we highlight the importance o
In the context of a decarbonized future where stringent carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions constraints are imposed on vehicles, hydrogen emerges as a promising solution to address emissions directly at the point of use. This chapter explores the potential of using hydrogen to power vehicles, particularly in the context of heavy-duty (HD) internal combustion engine (ICE) applications. Hydrogen vehicles
Attosecond pulses, produced through high-order harmonic generation in gases, have been successfully used for observing ultrafast, subfemtosecond electron dynamics in atoms, molecules and solid state systems. Today's typical attosecond sources, however, are often impaired by their low repetition rate and the resulting insufficient statistics, especially when the number of detectable events per shot
