Biodiversity is today rapidly decreasing, and one of the main threats is land use intensification in forest landscapes. By improving the forest quality in the surrounding landscape of protected areas, the level of biodiversity could increase, and green infrastructure areas have been proposed as a method in Sweden. These areas are called Valuable Forest Areas (VFAs), and contain high densities of s
Volunteers fill an important function in the social work that constantly and in various ways goes on in our society. Without the volunteers' involvement there is a risk that many more people fall between the cracks than actually do, even in the Swedish welfare state. Since volunteers are people whose resources are finite, it is important to gain insight into what motivates, encourages and even
Large-scale restoration projects are being increasingly used to address land degradation and global climate change. While these initiatives are promising, an overemphasis on tree planting may contribute to ecological degradation and carbon loss. This thesis critically examines the AFR100 initiative in southern Africa through literature analysis and expert interviews. By integrating perspectives fr
Den här uppsatsen undersöker den svenska implementeringen av andelsbytesmekanismen för privatpersoner, som återfinns i artikel 8 i Fusions-Direktivet, hädanefter FD. Uppsatsen undersöker även hur Sverige har valt att skydda sin beskattningsrätt när aktieägaren emigrerar till en annan EU MS medan hen äger aktier erhållna via ett andelsbyte. Syftet bakom undersökningen är att utreda huruvida om den This thesis examines the Swedish implementation of the exchange of shares mechanism for individuals, found in article 8 of the Tax Merger Directive, henceforth TMD, and how Sweden has chosen to safeguard its taxation right when the shareholder holding exchanged shares emigrates to another EU MS. The purpose behind this is to examine if the Swedish im-plementation, given the more recent case-law fr
En reformerad arbetsrätt trädde i kraft den 30 juni 2022, men började gälla först den 1 oktober. Det innebar främst ändringar i LAS, men det tillkom även en ny bestämmelse i uthyrningslagen. Syftet med dessa förändringar i lagstiftningen är att både öka flexibiliteten och rörligheten på arbetsmarknaden, samtidigt som det ska skapa en större trygghet och förutsägbarhet för både arbetsgivare och arbOn June 30, 2022, a reformed labor law came into effect, but it began to apply on October 1. This mainly involved changes to the Employment Protection Act, but also introduced a new provision in the Temporary Agency Work Act. The purpose of these changes in the legislation is to increase both flexibility and mobility in the labor market, while also creating greater security and predictability for
Denna undersökning analyserar vad som påverkar hur väl FN:s genusrelaterade resolutioner implementeras i EU:s civila och militära operationer, där åtta EU-administrerade uppdrag undersöks. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vilka faktorer som ligger till grund för problematiken kring bristande implementering av genusperspektivet, men även varför det varierar mellan de olika operationerna. Detta g
Bakgrund: Många personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning upplever en försämrad hälsa och delaktighet på grund av en brist på meningsfulla fritidsaktiviteter och sociala relationer. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva betydelsen av aktiviteten fotboll för upplevd hälsa och delaktighet för personer med intellektuell funktionsnedsättning som var aktiva fotbollsspelare i ett paralag. MetBackground: Many people with intellectual disabilities experience impaired health and participation due to lack of meaningful leisure activities and social relationships. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe the importance of football on experienced health and participation for individuals with intellectual disability who were active footballplayers in a parateam. Method: Semi-struct
Voluntary carbon markets (VCM) have grown significantly over the past years. However, the VCM is facing a ‘credibility crisis’ due to governance, technical, and market issues. Notably, despite the significant role of credibility in the VCM, a lack of systematic assessment frameworks in this area is discerned. To address this knowledge gap, this thesis set out to build, test, and evaluate a framewo

Supervisor: Susanna Persson Examiner: Anders Östnäs Dementia care, currently focusing on the whole patient afflicted with dementia and their
The European Union implements the Environmental Noise Directive (END), which offers a framework for evaluating and assessing environmental noise. All EU members are required to create strategic noise maps to inform the public about noise pollution and its effects. This study followed these directives and guidelines to collect the required data and employed the NORD2000 model to simulate traffic no
Barn och unga lever i en värld där de riskerar att möta svårigheter som kan påverka deras hälsa och utveckling negativt. Interventioner för att stärka barns motståndskraft behövs för att skydda mot negativa konsekvenser rotade i utmaningar under uppväxten. Traumamedveten omsorg (TMO) är en psykoedukativ intervention, som ges till vuxna i barnets närmiljö. Tidigare forskning har undersökt TMO utifrIn today’s society, children and adolescents face adversities that can impair their mental health and psychological development. Interventions that aim to strengthen children’s resilience are crucial in order to protect children from detrimental outcomes. Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) is a psychoeducational intervention, which is administered to adults in children’s environments. Previous research ha
Hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis delta virus (HDV), and hepatitis C virus (HCV) remain leading drivers of chronic viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, and liver-related mortality. This ESCMID Study Group for Viral Hepatitis (ESGVH) narrative review summarizes recent advances and expert perspectives in the field. For HBV, emerging biomarkers such as quantitative HBs antigen, HBV
Hepatitis A virus (HAV) remains a preventable cause of acute viral hepatitis, with an estimated 159 million new infections and 39 000 deaths in 2019. Although improved care and hygiene reduced deaths, global incidence rose by approximately 4%, driven by increased symptomatic cases and population growth. The availability of safe and highly immunogenic vaccines and the absence of chronic carriage ma
A search is presented for new particles produced in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV that result in final states comprising a massive vector (W or Z) boson that decays hadronically and large missing transverse momentum. The data sample was collected with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider from 2015 to 2018 and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 1
A search for heavy pseudo-scalar (A) and scalar (H) Higgs bosons decaying into a top-quark pair (tt¯) has been performed with 140 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of s = 13 TeV. Interference effects between the signal process and Standard Model (SM) tt¯ production are taken into account. Final states with
A search for a new heavy boson produced via gluon-fusion in the four-lepton channel with missing transverse momentum or jets is performed. The search uses proton-proton collision data equivalent to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV collected by the ATLAS detector between 2015 and 2018 at the Large Hadron Collider. This study explores the decays of heavy boso
Purpose. Continuous minor steps of improvement in the management of breast cancer have resulted in decreased mortality rates during the last decades. The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcome of patients with stage I breast cancer diagnosed during two time periods that differed with respect to adjuvant systemic therapy. Material and methods. The studied population consisted of all
Funktionella somatiska tillstånd (FSD) är vanliga och funktionsnedsättande tillstånd som ofta lämnar patienter fångade mellan otillräckliga medicinska förklaringar och begränsade psykologiska behandlingsalternativ. Internetbaserad emotional awareness and expression therapy (I-EAET) är en lovande intervention för FSD. Få studier har dock undersökt den subjektiva upplevelsen av att genomgå I-EAET – Functional somatic disorders (FSD) are common, debilitating conditions that often leave patients caught between insufficient medical explanations and limited psychological treatment options. Internet-based emotional awareness and expression therapy (I-EAET) is a promising intervention for FSD. However, few studies have examined the subjective experience of undergoing I-EAET—particularly among thos
