Hur påverkas markorganismerna av jordbruksmetoden strukturkalkning?
Jordens invånarantal ökar med rasande fart vilket också leder till ett ökat behov av mat. Detta har resulterat i ett intensivt jordbruk som bland annat kan orsaka skada på de livsviktiga organismerna som lever i marken. Organismer som lever i marken kan bland annat vara bakterier, svampar och även större organismer såsom daggmaskar. Tillsammans utför dessa viktiga funktioner i marken som är avgöraThis field study was done to get an understanding of how the agricultural method called “structural liming” might affect soil organisms in a negative way. Soil organisms are crucial as they perform biological processes that improve good soil structure. This is important as it enables sustainable food production, today, and in the future. Structural liming is used on clay soils to improve soil stru
Equity-based Crowdfunding in the UK: Obtaining Subsequent Financing from a VC after a Successful Campaign
Equity crowdfunding has achieved a high popularity in the UK throughout the last years. However, most researchers within this field primarily focused on the success factors of an equity crowdfunding campaign while only little is known about the post-campaign effects.

Are they an advantage - or taken advantage of?
In 2019, migrant seasonal workers from outside the EU constituted approximately twenty percent of the hired workforce within the agricultural sector in Sweden. However, the total share of migrant seasonal workers is assumed to be even greater. During 2020 this figure dropped significantly due to the travel restrictions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Federations of Swedish

This thesis examines the intersectional coalition politics articulated by feminist activists, climate justice movements and labor unions around the role
Modelling of water and material transport in River Storån to Lake Bolmen
The change of color of water from yellow to brown termed as brownification process is mainly due to leaching of humus and iron concentrations. In recent years, this problem is increasing in lake Bolmen, a major source of drinking water in Skåne county, Sweden. This process has been a threat to aquatic life and increasing the water treatment cost too. Storån river being the main tributary of the la
NEIGHBORHOOD AS A LIVING ORGANISM
To encounter the ambiguity of the contemporary understanding of neighborhood, we must fundamentally view the concept from a broad historical and global perspective. A neighborhood should be understood as an organism; this whole organism is alive, constantly changing, and its structure is fluid. The way people live and create community has changed with all the social and technological changes in th

In vitro study of Biodegradation in Mg-alloys by Isothermal Calorimetry
Magnesium corrosion in an aqueous environment is a multi-layer, complex process. A literature survey shows significant gaps and the modelling work reported indicates a lack of clarity in understanding the corrosion process. Studies on the effects of impurities and interfacial compounds formed by selected alloying additions would help in filling some of these gaps. Further, the evolution of hydro

Delad glädje är dubbel glädje? - Om mutbrottsbestämmelsernas generella reglering
Den svenska mutbrottslagstiftningen gör i dagsläget ingen skillnad på om en muttransaktion sker inom offentlig eller privat verksamhet. Den hållningen har kritiserats av bland annat Madeleine Leijonhufvud eftersom två olika skyddsintressen regleras generellt i en och samma bestämmelse. Vidare har lagstiftningen kritiserats eftersom korruption inom offentlig verksamhet har ansetts vara mer allvarliThe Swedish bribery legislation currently makes no difference between bribery within the public or private sector. This has been criticized by, among others, Madeleine Leijonhufvud because two different interests are protected under the same provision. Furthermore, the legislation has been criticized because corruption within the public sector has been considered more serious than within the priva
