Oilseed rape fields are a very common crop in the agricultural landscape of southern Sweden, and they can harbour surprisingly many insect species. Some of them are herbivores that feed on various parts of the oilseed rape plant, others are natural enemies of the herbivores, and even more species are tourists from the surrounding landscape. In my thesis I have studied these insects and how their pOilseed rape fields are a very common crop in the agricultural landscape of southern Sweden, and they can harbour surprisingly many insect species.

High concentrations of salts in agricultural soils are an environmental problem that has plagued human civilization from its very beginning. Already the earliest civilizations in ancient Mesopotamia struggled with increasing concentrations of salt on irrigated fields. Also in modern times, salinization of soils, particularly of agricultural soils is still a problem restricting agricultural productSoil salinization is a pressing agricultural problem in many areas of the world, particularly in areas heavily reliant on irrigation agriculture. While the negative effects of salinity on crop plants have been widely studied, its effects on soil microorganisms have received less attention, and the impact of soil salinity on both microbial community structure and functioning is not well understood.

- A PhD Interview with Juliane Tampé Neuroinflammation plays a key role in how the brain responds to injury, aging, and disease. During her Ph.D. at Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center, Juliane Tampé has explored how two types of immune cells, monocytes and microglia, shape these processes across the human lifespan and in conditions such as stroke and Gaucher's disease. On September 18th, she

The theory of the Investment Development Path (IDP) by John H. Dunning suggests that as a country develops, its composition of inward and outward foreign direct investment change both regarding to quantity and type of investment. The theory consists of 5 stages a country passes as its OLI-advantages develop. In this paper we have applied the theory of the IDP on the case of Brazil in order to eval

Presently the telecom industry is going through a massive shift in technology. In the business to business environment regarding delivery and service of fixed telephony, the traditional circuit-switched PBX (private branch exchange) technology is successively replaced by a new Ip-based (Internet protocol) PBX technology. The new way of switching voice-calls doesn't demand a separate infrastruc

This thesis analyzes whether the growth in productive credit is positively associated with economic growth in Taiwan from 1997 to 2023, while the growth in unproductive credit is not. It also focuses on whether credit creation is the main determinant of investment rather than savings. This study constructs new proxies of productive and unproductive credit by including loans to the government and a

Previous research on variation in patient reported experience measures (PREMs) suggest that it is important to be cautious when using comparative information about patients’ experiences, collected via patient surveys, to assess provider performance. Not all factors associated with variation in PREMs are related to factors that providers themselves can control. This study explores if structural cha

”In many parts of the world, opening a bottle of Coca-Cola means opening the doors to economic empowerment for women.” Thus, by founding their latest global campaign 5by20, an initiative aiming to empower five million women before 2020 in their position as small-scale entrepreneurs, Coca Cola engages itself in what is called Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). This notion of businesses engaging

I wanted to have fun in the process, play with forms, elaborate my design language and learn/see new things. In the design process, the space around the object is as important to me as the object itself. Only through the right place/ light/surrounding objects, the object works properly. It should be itself but at the same time one with its environment. I thought a lot about materiality and immate

Up until the mid 1960s you could still find significant remains of a medieval brick house in Halmstad. Since the building was rediscovered in the 1920s, numerous speculations about the house and its owners have been presented. It has been linked to the Kalente guild as well as to the guild of St. Gertrud. These hypotheses rest, however, on very flimsy basis.

Abkhazia and Chechnya are both examples of de facto-states; that is they both function as independent states but they have no sovereignty as they are stil officialy parts of their parent states Georgia and Russia. They both fought and won wars of independence in the early 90s, but since then their trajectories have taken separate directions. Abkhazia still functions as a de facto-state while Chech

A PhD defense interview with Sujeethkumar Prithiviraj When injuries or disease lead to severe bone loss, grafts are often used to restore strength and function, but they face challenges in effectiveness, safety and scalability. At Lund University’s Lund Stem Cell Center, Ph.D. student Sujeethkumar Prithiviraj has been exploring how engineered extracellular matrices could offer a more effective, cu

Nationalräkenskaperna, och särskilt BNP, används idag ofta som ett mått på välfärd och välmående i samhället. Dock, i verkligheten är dessa mått inte ämnade att mäta välfärd och även när det gäller att mäta produktion finns det oftast stora problem. Utöver detta uppträder det ofta problem när man ska jämföra nationalräkenskaperna mellan länder eller olika tidsperioder. Under den tidsperiod jag anThe national accounts, and specifically GDP, are often taken as a measure of welfare and increased wellbeing in society. However, in reality these measures are not created for measuring welfare, and even in measuring productions there are often significant problems. Furthermore, problems arise when we try to compare national accounts between countries, or between different periods. During the dec

Popular Abstract in Undetermined Syftet med avhandlingen är dels att undersöka författarbiografin som litterär text, dels att finna en rimlig ståndpunkt i den teoretiska debatt där biografins fiktionalitet har lyfts fram. I inledningen tar jag upp den teoretiska utveckling som rör detta metaperspektiv. För att ge en ram både åt dessa resonemang och mitt eget val av undersökningsobjekt, ger jag ockThe aim of the present thesis is twofold: to examine literary biography as literary text and, on the basis of my findings, to adopt a reasonable perspective on the theoretical debate about the fictionality of such biographies. In my introduction I trace the theoretical developments underlying this metaperspective and supply with an historical survey of literary biography as practised in Sweden. In
