Sedan lagen om klimatdeklaration av byggnader trädde i kraft 2022-01-01 måste byggherren lämna in en klimatdeklaration som redovisar den färdiga byggnadens klimatavtryck under delar av dess livscykel för att få slutbesked. Lagkravet medför att aktörer involverade i nybyggnation av flera typer av byggnader behöver rutiner för hur nödvändig information ska sammanställas och hanteras. Detta examensar
Guðrún Guðjónsdóttir Climate change is having a great impact on the fragile High Latitude environment where warming is occurring at a rate at least double the global average. It is urgent to understand the relationship between climate and vegetation cover, which is playing an important role, as a carbon sink, for biodiversity, and for protecting against natural hazards. Less studied but equally i
This thesis aims to test the effect of changing gender roles on fertility. Previous literature has suggested that moving towards gender equality in the household sphere can increase fertility. I test whether a more equal division of housework or gender-egalitarian attitudes affect fertility. Two country groups are analysed that are at different levels regarding fertility and female labour force pa
The spectral density function can be used to describe the stochastic motions of proteins. It has long been known that discrete values of the spectral density can be mapped by obtaining three Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxation parameters: R1, R2 and NOE. In this work relaxation parameters are obtained at four different magnetic field strengths for two protein:ligand complexes of galectin-3
The main monitoring method during labor is cardiotocography, CTG, which measures the fetal heartbeat, FHR, as well as the uterine contractions, TOCO. The CTG is a valuable tool in assessing the fetal status and it is evaluated intermittently by clinicians during the progress of the labor. However, abnormalities in the CTG are often non-specific which makes the interpretation difficult and inconsis
This thesis argues that the reason behind the lack of sustained economic growth in the Middle East compared to East Asia lies in the technology gap between the two regions, and it attempts to find an explanation for it. Through an empirically supported narrative, the paper applies the social capability framework to explain the low level of technology capability in the Arab region. The research con
The aim of the studies is to contribute to increased knowledge regarding older people's attitudes to mobile banking services and how digital exclusion is affected by psychological barriers. In this way, we check whether there is a significant connection with the psychological factors to whether an older individual uses mobile banking services or not.
In this project, attempts were made to identify and quantify two polyfunctional thiols – 4-mercapto-4-methyl-pentanone and 3-mercaptohexyl acetate – and three monoterpene alcohols – linalool, geraniol, and β-citronellol – in beer samples. In order to avoid the use of hazardous compounds such as dichloromethane and hydroxymercuriobenzoate, common in traditional methods, two novel techniques were te

Unicorns – privately-owned companies with a market valuation upwards of $1 billion – develop at an explosive growth rate. This hypergrowth forces unicorns to attract external partners enabling and supporting their development. Therefore, the right compilation of external growth domains allows unicorns to remain healthy and self-sustaining. To investigate external domains, a recent surge in literat
This report discusses the use of magnetomotive ultrasound (MMUS) as a diagnostic imaging method using superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) as a contrast agent. With a focus on rectal cancer. Rectal cancer is a disease which complications often affect the quality of life to a large extent for the affected. The principle of MMUS is based on applying a time-varying magnetic field that e

Vombsjön är en sjö belägen I sydvästra Skåne som fyller en viktig roll som dricksvattenreservoar. Sjöns avrinningsområde består till ca 70% av jordbruksmark vilket har medfört långvarig påverkan på vattenkvaliteten från lokalt näringsläckage. I dagsläget finns ingen lokalt anpassad förvaltningsplan för Vombsjön utan den förvaltas utifrån den regionala förvaltningsplan som gäller för hela SödrLake Vomb is situated in the southwest of Skåne, Sweden, and is important due to its role as drinking water reservoir. The lake is situated in highly cultivated farmland and is highly influenced by nutrient rich run-off water. There is no locally adapted water management plan for lake Vomb and the lake is currently managed under a regional water management plan which covers the entire Southern B
Combustion of fossil fuels is single-handedly the largest contributor of global warming. The transportation sector is responsible for about a third of the greenhouse gas emissions yearly in Sweden. In turn, road traffic makes up the largest share within the transportation. The Swedish government has set out an ambitious goal to reduce domestic carbon emissions caused by the transportation sector

During the past two decades, the higher education sector has undergone rapid changes as a result of which many higher education institutions (HEIs) find themselves being compared to other institutions. Global rankings have become the prime mechanism for providing such comparisons. How nations and their HEIs respond to the developments in the higher education sector is context-specific. There is a
The need to curb global warming is evident, and efficient climate policies are essential. But within the democratic context, public support for climate politics is needed to implement mitigation efforts. Sweden has long been known as a forerunner for climate change mitigation, however, there are indications that the voters’ interest in climate politics is waning. This study aims to visualize the e
