Accurate streamflow simulation is crucial for many applications, such as optimal reservoir operation and irrigation. Conceptual techniques employ physical ideas and are suitable for representing the physics of the hydrologic model, but they might fail in competition with their more advanced counterparts. In contrast, deep learning (DL) approaches provide a great computational capability for stream
Recent climate change mitigation strategies rely on the reduction of methane (CH4) emissions. Carbon and hydrogen isotope ratio (δ13CCH4 and δ2HCH4) measurements can be used to distinguish sources and thus to understand the CH4 budget better. The CH4 emission estimates by models are sensitive to the isotopic signatures assigned to each source category, so it is important to provide representative
To date, most studies on coupled-water-and-heat processes in frozen soils haves focused on the mechanism of changes in frozen soil and the contribution of climate change, hydrological processes, and ecosystems in cold regions. Several studies have demonstrated considerable improvements in the accuracy of simulating water and heat transfer processes in cold regions. However, substantial differences
Peer-to-peer-plattformar (P2P) använder informations- och kommunikationsteknik (IKT) för att koppla samman konsumenter med tjänsteleverantörer. Tillväxten av P2P har gett upphov till vetenskapliga och offentliga diskussioner om förtroende i den digitala tidsåldern. Förtroende är en förutsättning för samarbete och ordnade sociala relationer. Detta är särskilt viktigt när det gäller uthyrning av turThis thesis investigates how trust is built in the relationships between guests and hosts in digital environments of peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms. The growth of P2P platforms and their use of information and communication technologies have sparked scholarly and public discussions about trust in the digital age. Trust is a social phenomenon essential for cooperation and orderly social relationships
Elevated ozone (eO3) and atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition are important climate change components that can affect plant growth and plant-soil-microbe interactions. However, the understanding of how eO3 and its interaction with N deposition affect soil microbially mediated carbon (C) cycling and the fate of soil C stocks is limited. This study aimed to test how eO3 and N deposition affected soil
In the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, the accelerated shift to remote and hybrid work modes has left many office buildings vacant. Meanwhile, many cities struggle with providing housing. Adaptive reuse (AR) is the process of giving an existing building a new life, typically through an extensive renovation and refurbishment. Residential adaptative reuse specifically refers to adapting for hous
The first authoritative overview of tourism studies published post-COVID-19 The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Tourism remains a definitive reference in this interdisciplinary field. Edited and authored by leading scholars from around the world, this state-of-the-art volume provides a comprehensive critical overview of tourism studies across the social sciences. In-depth yet accessible chapters comb
Lunds universitet har på uppdrag av Naturvårdsverket under 2021–2022 utvärderat metodik för nationell pollinatörsövervakning. Metodiken bygger på rapporten ”Proposal for an EU pollinator monitoring scheme” som tagits fram av en expertgrupp inom EU och ska ge underlag för uppföljning av pollinatörer på nationell nivå med ett främsta fokus på landskapet utanför områden som omfattas av EU:s gemensamm
Background: People with substance use disorders (SUD) including patients in opioid substitution treatment (OST) are subject to stigma, and have generally poor health and barriers towards seeking healthcare. Experience of stigma might negatively affect healthcare seeking, but this topic is sparsely investigated. The aim of this study was to explore OST patients’ past and present experiences of subs
In order to understand species’ sensitivity to habitat change, we must correctly determine if a species is associated with a habitat or not, and if it is associated, its degree of specialization for that habitat. However, definitions of species’ habitat association and specialization are often static, categorical classifications that coarsely define species as either habitat specialists or general
Tourism enterprises play a vital role in tourism development. This has inspired scholarly and policy interest in the workings of tourism enterprises, particularly the small enterprises that account for the majority. The heterogeneity of small enterprises presents challenging terrain for scholars and policymakers concerned to understand and manage enterprise development and tourism development. Sch
Understanding biodiversity patterns poses a persistent challenge due to the complex interconnections of ecological and evolutionary processes. The particular difficulty comes from the various processes influencing biodiversity patterns across different spatial scales. This thesis aims to enhance comprehension of community diversity patterns by employing theoretical models that are capable of gener
BACKGROUND: In recent years, telemedicine consultations have evolved as a new form of providing primary healthcare. Telemedicine options can provide benefits to patients in terms of access, reduced travel time and no risk of disease spreading. However, concerns have been raised that access is not equally distributed in the population, which could lead to increased inequality in health. The aim of
Goose management in Europe is faced by multiple challenges, as some species are declining and in need of conservation actions, while other populations have become very abundant, resulting in calls for increased harvest. Sweden has long-Term series of harvest data and counts of breeding and autumn-staging geese. We used national data (indices) for greylag goose, bean goose and Canada goose to study
In 2022, the Yangtze River Basin in China experienced an unprecedented extreme drought, induced by high temperatures and precipitation deficits. Accurate monitoring of such extreme drought events is vitally significant for disaster mitigation under global warming. This study evaluated the effectiveness of two satellite-based precipitation products: the latest Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals
Introduction: Out-of-pocket health expenditures (OOPE) are an inefficient and inequitable means of health financing. Identifying the factors driving these expenditures is crucial to design effective prepayment schemes. This study uses Cambodia—a country with high OOPE and prevalent informal employment—as a case study to analyse the relative contributions of healthcare, health, and social factors t
Purpose:The purpose is to identify factors influencing the environmental sustainability of e-commerce packaging across its lifecycle.Design/methodology/approach:A systematic literature review captured 45 articles. To categorise the literature, a conceptual framework based on a lifecycle perspective was developed. An actor perspective analysed their influence and responsibilities.Findings:Five fact
Permafrost degradation poses serious threats to both natural and human systems through its influence on ecological–hydrological processes, infrastructure stability, and the climate system. The Arctic and the Third Pole (Tibetan Plateau, TP hereafter) are the two northern regions on Earth with the most extensive permafrost areas. However, there is a lack of systematic comparisons of permafrost char
