Under våren 2013 har en hydrogeologisk kartering gjorts av grundvattenmagasinet Hultan i Sjöbo kommun, södra Skåne. Projektet har utförts på uppdrag av Sveriges geologiska undersökning som en del i arbetet med ett av Sveriges miljömål; Grundvatten av god kvalitet. Undersökningen har innefattat brunnsinventering av enskilda brunnar i området, provtagning och analys av grundvattnet i två mätpunkter,During spring 2013 mapping of the ground water has been done in Hultan in Sjöbo municipality, south Scania. The project is an assignment from Geological Survey of Sweden as a part of the work with one of Sweden´s environmental quality objectives; Groundwater of good quality. The study has included inventory of private wells in the area, a collection of samples and analysis thereof of the groundwat

With today’s big market of smartphones and tablets, computers are no longer the only device with a web browser. As a result of this more and more web pages are designed to adjust to the size and resolution available for a specific device. When a web page adjusts like this it is called responsive web design. E-commerce via computer has been around for a while and is now used by many for their every

In the today's cold attics are wide problems with mould onset due to the humid climate in the attic. The reason for the mould damage are the thick insulation and absence of the chimney stock that makes the temperature drops in the attic. The mould onset is also due to less ventilation, the attic space is used as a storage room and air leakage through the attic hatch. A solution could be to iso

Vår studies syfte är att kartlägga hur könssammansättningen inom opinionsbildningen i FARs branschtidning Balans ser ut samt att utreda huruvida det spelar någon roll för utvecklandet av revisionsbranschen om opinionsbildningen inte är jämställd. Studien utgör till viss del ett komplement till existerande forskning inom genusvetenskapen, men erövrar likaså helt ny mark, eftersom det inte förekomm

Monazit är ett Ree– och Th-bärande fosfatmineral som förekommer i vissa magmatiska och metamorfa bergarter. Mineralet är användbart för datering av den metamorfa utvecklingen och kan bidra till att yt-terligare karaktärisera metamorfosen i en bergart, detta genom att man undersöker zoneringar i kristallerna. Mo-nazit har upptäckts i metasediment i Stensjöstrand och tunnslip har gjorts ifrån proverMonazite is a Th-bearing REE phosphate mineral which is present in some igneous and metamorphic rocks. It is a useful mineral for determination of the metamorphic history and age of its host rock because clues to past mineral reactions can be seen in trace element zoning. Monazite has been found in metasediments in Sten-sjöstrand and thin sections have been made from rock samples to study the mine

This thesis analyses the social construction and discursive development of the EU-China Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (CSP) and aims at an improved understanding of the interaction between political language use and social change in EU-China relations. To this end, the thesis undertook a critical discourse analysis, based on Fairclough’s dialectical-relational approach, and analysed how EU-C

This thesis is about how railway maintenance should be performed according to science and examine if these theories are complied in practice.

The aim of this thesis is to research the relationship between economic growth and atmospheric pollution in China based on Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis. Three atmospheric pollutants are mainly tested in this research including industrial sulphur dioxide, industrial dust and industrial soot. Based on provincial economic and environmental data over 1991-2010, panel approach is applied to s

Abstract The barnacle, Stephanolepas muricata, a commensal epibiont of cheloniid sea turtles, occurs frequently on the sea turtles of the Golfo Dulce, Pacific Costa Rica. The aim of this study was to quantify the occurrence of S. muricata on green and hawksbill sea turtles, to describe its major attachment locations and to investigate potential routes for barnacle exposure. In-water sampling of s

In this paper the laminar burning velocities of nitromethane, ethanol and nitromethane-ethanol mixtures has been determined by using heat flux method. The laminar burning velocity of ethanol was measured at atmospheric pressure, initial temperatures range 298-358 K and equivalence ratio 0.7-1.6. The flame speed of ethanol shows a satisfactory agreement with previous available data. The burning vel

The day of bud burst (DBB) and leaf senescence are two examples of time-to-event phenological processes influenced by climate factors. Time to graduation or quitting for engineering students is another example of time-to-event data, with the added complication of having multiple possible outcomes, or absorbing states. This master thesis elaborates upon the models presented in Song (2010) &quo

Abstract A radar study was performed to compare flight parameters between sparrowhawks and common buzzards during autumn migration at the Falsterbo peninsula, Sweden. Common buzzards had higher flight altitudes and were more selective for wind, yet their air - and cross-country speeds were lower than those of sparrowhawks. Furthermore, common buzzards had higher glide ratio, but lower airspeed w

Global scale innovation is a new topic that is continuously gaining importance among companies, moreover multinational ones. The main aspects related to innovation in general were studied as well as the most important aspect of culture and cultural differences. Many theories related to the global consumer studies were reviewed. A qualitative study was performed in order to gain more knowledge abou

The past six years have seen the development of fast and accurate single-particle sources, with possible applications in metrology, nanoelectronics, quantum information processing, and single-electron quantum optics. These mesoscopic devices also enable us to gain more insight into the quantum mechanics of interacting fermions. In the present work, we study the energy spectrum of the emitted state

Konkurrensen på den globala marknaden blir allt hårdare för internationella företag där utlandsplacerade medarbetare, så kallade expatriater anses vara ett viktigt verktyg för att erhålla konkurrensfördelar. Flera forskare har studerat olika delar av utlandsuppdrag där såväl förberedande träning innan uppdraget som anpassning på plats i värdlandet har framhävts. Dock saknas forskning där ett kompaThe competition on the global market is becoming increasingly tough for international companies where workers located abroad, so called expatriates are thought of as an important tool in obtaining competition advantages. Several scientists have studied different parts of a mission abroad for expatriates where pre-departure training as well as adjustment to the host country has been accentuated. Ho

Studien visar att Big bath – genomförd med metoden goodwillnedskrivningar – delvis kan förklaras av nytillträdd VD i företag listade på Stockholmsbörsens Large Cap och Mid Cap efter införandet av IFRS-regelverket. Resultatet tyder också på en flexibilitet i regelverket kring nedskrivningsprövning av goodwill.

This thesis examines the evolution of income inequality in Germany from 1991-2010, by analyzing the literature on labour market theories. It is assumed that human capital, labour market segmentation and globalization are the main long-term determinants of income inequality. Most importantly, skill-biased technological change (SBTC) has increased the dispersion of incomes to the detriment of people
