Monitoring deforestation in the Serranía de Chiribiquete in northern Colombian Amazon using time series analysis of satellite data

Deforestation monitoring is of significant importance for the ecosystem, climate change,and policy-making. The availability of optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite remote sensing images, along with the development of time series change detection methods, has contributed to the increasing popularity of time series analysis in forest disturbance monitoring. However, there are few stu

INVESTIGATING THE EFFECTS OF PROMOAT BETAGLUCAN ON IMPROVING AND MAINTAINING THE DESIRED STRUCTURE AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF SPONGE CAKES OVER TWO WEEKS OF STORAGE.

This project investigated the impact of beta-glucan on sponge cake's desired texture and physical properties. Sponge cakes with different percentages of Lantmännens PromOat beta-glucan (0.0%, 1.0% and 2.0%) were produced and compared on the following parameters: volume, density, water activity, moisture content and texture profile analyses. These parameters were measured on different storage d

Characterization of immune niches in non-small cell lung cancer

Lung cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Immunotherapy using immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is a potent treatment for NSCLC; however, long-term response is limited in the majority of patients and there is a lack of predictive biomarkers. Tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) may serve as biomarkers for predicting ICI respo

The Future of Urban Last Mile Deliveries - Not a piece of cake

Urban last mile delivery has become an increasingly relevant topic in this day and age, where the urban population is growing at the same time as climate change forces nations to limit emissions. The demand for fast and flexible deliveries in urban areas accelerates, which further escalates the need to optimize these last mile deliveries since they are the most polluting part of the supply chain.

The Future of Nuclear Power -- Are Investments in Nuclear Power Profitable in Comparison to Wind Power

In the face of an expected double demand for electricity by 2045 while also reaching the goal of being a net zero emission country, Sweden needs to expand the production capacity of low-emission electricity. As the right-wing government strives to facilitate new investments in nuclear power, this paper aims to examine the profitability of nuclear power in comparison to land-based wind power. Throu

The responsibilities of LKAB to respect the rights of the Sami people - a Business and Human Rights perspective on access to remedy in the Swedish mining sector

In 2023, the Swedish state-owned enterprise LKAB revealed that it had found Europe’s largest deposit of critical minerals, which are needed in green technology. Being located on indigenous territory, a mine would impact the migration of reindeers, a Sami practice which form the basis of their culture and status as indigenous peoples under international law. This prompted questions about what respo

"And lo! Apollo Could Not Live Without Dionysus" A Nietzschean Study of the Apollonian and Dionysian in Donna Tartt's The Secret History

Previous research on Donna Tartt’s debut novel The Secret History in regards to its intertextual relevance has helped in understanding the traditional campus novel, as well as redefined the classical murder mystery. However, little research has been made on its characters and its portrayal of the human experience. Additionally, plenty of research has been made into Nietzsche’s philosophical work T

Mechanistic Model Development for a Multi-Enzyme Protein Hydrolysis Process

Fler och fler livsmedelsprodukter dyker upp på marknaden som marknadsförs som miljövänliga, jämfört med liknande alternativ. På senaste tiden har forskning om insekter som livsmedel fått ett lyft, även om få produkter finns tillgängliga för konsumenter än. Mjölbaggen, Tenebrio Molitor, är en insekt som nyligen blev godkänt livsmedel i Europeiska unionen. Proteinet i mjölbaggar anses näringsrikt ocNew food products are constantly put on the market. Today the focus often lies in creating nutritional and sustainable products to reduce the environmental impact of the product in question. One example of this is the approval of the yellow mealworm, Tenebrio Molitor, as a novel food in the European union. To efficiently include the protein fraction of the yellow mealworm into food formulations, k

The Hidden Effects of Inflation. An Examination of Bracket Creep and its Implications for the Income Tax: Evidence for Spain (1979-1987)

This paper examines the impact of inflation on the income tax in Spain from 1979 to 1987. By introducing a new approach using dynamic microsimulation and the Elasticity of Taxable Income (ETI), we analyze three dimensions of the tax: revenue, progressivity, and redistribution. The microsimulation reveals that the lack of adjustment of the income tax to inflation: 1) accounts for 44% of the increas

The interpretation of gender at the International Criminal Court - An examination of article 7(3) of the Rome Statute and the crime against humanity of gender persecution

The adoption of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court identified for the first time in international criminal law the crime against humanity of persecution on gender grounds.
