Berättelser om en by : Dannäs från inlandsis till väckelsetid

Boken skildrar hur byn Dannäs i västra delen av Småland växer fram ur ett förmedeltida samhälle, hur byn utvecklas och så småningom försvinner.

Mycket av innehållet är resultatet av omfattande studier i arkiv, till exempel skattelängder och kyrkböcker, men också äldre kartor. Boken är relevant, både fak

Unraveling navigational strategies in migratory insects.

Long-distance migration is a strategy some animals use to survive a seasonally changing environment. To reach favorable grounds, migratory animals have evolved sophisticated navigational mechanisms that rely on a map and compasses. In migratory insects, the existence of a map sense (sense of position) remains poorly understood, but recent work has provided new insights into the mechanisms some com

New Criteria for Brine Discharge Outfalls from Desalination Plants

An efficient method for increasing the dilution rate of brine water discharged into the sea is an inclined negatively buoyant jet from a single port or a multi-diffuser system. Such jets typically arise when brine is discharged from desalination plants. Two small-scale experimental studies were conducted to investigate the behaviour of a dense jet discharged into lighter ambient water. The first e

Older non-Nordic immigrants living in Sweden and receiving municipal care

Older immigrants in need of public care will increase in the future. It is therefore important to increase the knowledge of their situation in order to meet their varying care needs. The overall aim of this thesis was to explore the situation of older non-Nordic immigrants, aged 65 years and older, living in Sweden and receiving municipal care with the focus on care provided, care-related needs an
