The purpose of this study is to provide a system perspective on the barriers to the development of a fossil-free and thus more sustainable urban freight system and to provide insights regarding these barriers and how they impede progress. The system perspective complements earlier research, where barriers were identified in delimited parts of freight systems. Here, the urban freight system in a Sw
Cyanobacterial blooms are becoming more frequent in freshwater sources, causing concern throughout the world. Cyanobacterial blooms affect human health and the entire environment. Numerical modeling is an effective tool for investigating aquatic systems. In this study, a 3D hydrodynamic and water quality (ecological) model was used to simulate eutrophication of a drinking water source, Lake Vomb,
Knowledge of how biodiversity sustains ecosystem function comes predominantly from studies focused on small spatial scales. Thus, we know relatively little about the role of biodiversity at larger scales of space and time where habitats become increasingly heterogeneous. Efforts to upscale the relationship between biodiversity and function have yielded inconclusive results. Given that increasing h
This paper presents an LO phase shifter with frequency tripling for 28-GHz 5G transceivers. The phase shifting and frequency tripling are achieved using an injection-locked oscillator and injection-locked frequency tripler, respectively. A phase detector based on third harmonic mixing is also implemented and is used to detect the applied phase shift, supporting automatic calibration of the phase s
Epithelioid and spindle cell hemangioma was initially described in 1999 in a series of primary bone tumors and was subsequently suggested by some to represent a variant of epithelioid hemangioma. Here, we studied 18 epithelioid and spindle cell hemangiomas. Nine patients (50%) were male. Age at presentation ranged from 12 to 78 years (median: 38.5 y). Nine patients (50%) had tumor(s) limited to bo
Imidacloprid is a neonicotinoid neurotoxin that remains widely used worldwide and persists in the environment, resulting in chronic exposure to non-target insects. To accurately map dose-dependent effects of such exposure across taxa, toxicological assays need to assess relevant modes of exposure across indicator species. However, due to the difficulty of these experiments, contact bioassays are m
Three-dimensional city models are increasingly being used for analyses and simulations. To enable such applications, it is necessary to standardise semantically richer city models and, in some cases, to connect the models with external data sources. In this study, we describe the development of a new Swedish specification for 3D city models, denoted as 3CIM, which is a joint effort between the thr
Insulin resistance causes compensatory insulin production, which in humans can eventually progress to β-cell failure and type 2 diabetes (T2D). This disease progression involves multi-scale processes, ranging from intracellular signaling to organ and whole-body level regulations, on timescales from minutes to years. T2D progression is commonly studied using overfed and genetically modified rodents
Background: Fatigue is a debilitating symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS), but its relation to sociodemographic and disease-related characteristics has not been investigated in larger studies. The objectives of this study were to evaluate predictors of self-reported fatigue in a Swedish nationwide register-based MS cohort. Methods: Using a repeated cross-sectional design, we included 2,165 persons
Sommaren 1767 påbörjade orientalisten Jacob Jonas Björnståhl (1731–1779) en resa som förde honom till Frankrike, Schweiz, Italien, Tyskland, Holland och England innan han sjövägen tog sig till Konstantinopel och så småningom Grekland, där han avled i dysenteri vid 48 års ålder. Hade det inte varit för tidningsmannen Carl Christoffer Gjörwell hade eftervärlden aldrig fått någon större kännedom om d
Co-design processes are of key importance in planning and implementing Nature-based Solutions (NBS), but require boundary management between diverse holders of local, practical and scientific knowledge. Participatory and mapbased planning tools, such as Geodesign workshops, can facilitate such boundary management through mobilising knowledge holders, and translating and negotiating between differe
Monolithic integration of InSb on Si could be a key enabler for future electronic and optoelectronic applications. In this work, we report the fabrication of InSb metal-semiconductor-metal photodetectors directly on Si using a CMOS-compatible process known as rapid melt growth. Fourier transform spectroscopy demonstrates a spectrally resolved photocurrent peak from a single crystalline InSb nanost
Over recent years, non-fluorinated ion exchange membranes based on poly(terphenylene) backbones carrying different functional groups have shown potential application for vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs). Generally, the ion exchange membrane in VRFBs is a critical component in terms of the output power, long-term stability and cost. Yet, the shortcomings of commercial membranes (e.g., Nafion)
Contribution to the online database of the project ERC Advanced Grant MAP 741182: Mapping Ancient Polytheisms.My work as a guest researcher for the MAP project focuses on the divine landscape of Hellenistic and Roman Lydia. Having collected and analysed the Anatolian testimonies to divine epithets derived from anthroponyms for the workshop My name is your name. Anthroponyms as divine attributes (2
Halophilic archaea are polyextremophiles with the ability to withstand fluctuations in salinity, high levels of ultraviolet radiation, and oxidative stress, allowing them to survive in a wide range of environments and making them an excellent model for astrobiological research. Natrinema altunense 4.1R is a halophilic archaeon isolated from the endorheic saline lake systems, Sebkhas, located in ar
Denna rapport visar att de ökade skillnaderna i levnadsstandard i Sverige har en tydlig geografisk dimension. Framförallt sjunker levnadsstandarden i städernas invandrartäta områden. För Sveriges 5 procent mest invandrartäta områden var den disponibla inkomsten 34 procent lägre än för riket 2017. År 1990 var skillnaden endast 7 procent, vilket innebär ett fall på 27 procentenheter. För Sveriges 5-
Sammanfattning av rapportens främsta resultat• De senaste årens negativa arbetsmarknadsutveckling för Malmö tycks delvis bero på förändringar iarbetspendling till Danmark.• Gapet i arbetslöshet mellan Malmö och riket kan förklaras utifrån skillnader i befolkningens demografi och utbildningsnivå, invandrartäthet och näringslivets sammansättning.• Malmös stora andel av befolkningen som bor i invandr
Skillnaderna i förutsättningar och möjligheter mellan olika delar av landet harökat (SOU, 2017:1). Framförallt tycks utvecklingen på landsbygden och stadensinvandrartäta områden gå i fel riktning. För både landsbygden och deinvandrartäta områdena riskerar ett växande kulturellt och ekonomisk gapgentemot majoritetssamhället göda splittring och politisk polariseringen.Polariseringen i Sverige är for
