The whole society is digitalizing, filled with streaming services, cloud computing and an ambition of ubiquitous connectivity. To address the data demand, ultra-fast broadband, at the speeds of 1Gbps and more, is developed and deployed. Optical fibers have been long viewed as a future-proof carrier for the ultra-fast broadband. However, the physical deployment of fiber networks, including digging,

The occupancy level of dwellings is an important parameter to know to determine the energy efficiency, energy use and indoor air quality, especially in low-energy buildings where the user-related energy uses, such as household electricity and domestic hot water heating, are significant parts of the energy balance in a building. For residential buildings, there is a lack of occupancy level data, wh
This article measures the impact of the switch to new and more expensive drugs on the aggregate drug expenditure (both prescription and nonprescription) in Sweden during the period 1974 to 1991, and also on the disaggregated expenditure for 3 medical areas: asthma, hypertension and peptic ulcer disease. During the period studied, nominal drug expenditure increased 6-fold. The retail price index of
Satellite-derived Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), a proxy of vegetation productivity, is known to be correlated with temperature in northern ecosystems. This relationship, however, may change over time following alternations in other environmental factors. Here we show that above 30°N, the strength of the relationship between the interannual variability of growing season NDVI and te
The Arctic land area has warmed by > 1 A degrees C in the last 30 years and there is evidence that this has led to increased productivity and stature of tundra vegetation and reduced albedo, effecting a positive (amplifying) feedback to climate warming. We applied an individual-based dynamic vegetation model over the Arctic forced by observed climate and atmospheric CO2 for 1980-2006. Averaged ove
Long time series of satellite remotely sensed Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) as an indicator of vegetation greenness can be used in a broad range of research topics such as climate change, vegetation dynamics and desertification monitoring. The first phase of this study tests a practical method using Hyperion imagery onboard on Earth Observing-1 (EO1) spacecraft for simulation of MO
Abstract – Introduction: Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, with Africa bearing a disproportionately high burden of poor outcomes. In sub-Saharan Africa, acute stroke care remains inconsistent, with organized stroke units being either absent or rarely available, contributing to the high stroke mortality rates in the region. To address this issue, the Tanzania Stroke Pro
Recent studies document a 30-year decline in various measures of entrepreneurship in the U.S. Using detailed Swedish employer-employee data over the period from 1990 to 2013, we find young firms to be more prominent in the Swedish business sector than in the U.S. business sector. Young Swedish firms, aged five years or less, account for more than half of all firms during this period. We also obser
Emissions from aviation are expected to grow. With evidence that the International Civil Aviation Organization’s Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation is an inadequate mitigation mechanism, there is interest in upscaling the sector’s climate-related policies. This paper reviews potential aviation emissions mitigation policies against the background of emerging complexit
Mosses have often been used for biomonitoring because of their diversity of habitats, structural simplicity, and rapid multiplication rate. This research aimed to study the tolerance of heavy metal in 3 species of terricolous mosses i.e., Barbula consanguinea, Hyophila apiculata, and H. involuta. The gametophores of mosses were immersed at 4 concentrations of each of the heavy metals Cd, Pb, and Z
The Energy Services industry has a global footprint and an incredibly geographically and culturally diverse workforce. This research explores how storytelling is used in safety training in a multinational energy service organisation, particularly examining national cultural influences on storytelling, safety communications, and organisational learning. The subject organisation employs a variety
Geofysiska mätmetoder kan tids- och kostnadseffektivt skapa tvådimensionella (2D) och tredimensionella (3D) modeller som avspeglar geologin och som kan användas som ett verktyg för kartläggning av grundvattentillgångar. I denna studie har fyra profiler belägna i den s.k. Vombsänkan i sydöstra Skåne undersökts med galvanisk resistivitetsmätning (ERT) och Transient Elektronmagnetisk Sondering (TEM)Geophysical methods can create 2D- and 3D-models that reflects the geology. These models can be used as a tool for mapping groundwater resources. Four profiles, located in Vombsänkan in southeastern Skåne, have been investigated with Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and ground-based Transient Electromagnetic Soundings (TEM) as a study of the two methods. The resistivity profiles from the g
Analysing the environmental impact connected to biofuels has lately become more important due to the European Commission’s energy and climate target for 2020. These targets includes among others, 20 % reduction of greenhouse emissions and 20 % energy efficiency. One important solution for achieving this climate target is to increase the renewable fuel sector. In order to decide which biofuels that
The accession to the European Union was based on the financial gains that could be made on the single market. When acceding the Union the Member States gave up parts of their state sovereignty. This statement is not unproblematic. My thesis touches on the posting of workers. Since the adoption of the new Enforcement Directive on the Posting of Workers Directive, two reports on the Swedish impleme
När ett offentligt organ ägnar sig åt offentlig upphandling torde huvudsyftet vara att tillfredsställa ett behov av varor, tjänster eller byggentreprenader. En utgångspunkt för offentlig upphandling är att det är den upphandlande enheten som identifierar sitt behov och således avgör vad som ska upp¬handlas. Utöver syftet att tillfredsställa sitt primära upphandlingsbehov kan en upphandlande enhet When a public body engages in public procurement the main purpose for it to do so is arguably to satisfy a need for goods, services or works. A starting point for public procurement is that it is the procuring entity which identifies its own needs and thus determines what is to be procured. In addition to the purpose of satisfying its primary procurement needs, a contracting entity, however, may h
