Denna rapport beskriver en utforskande modell- och metodstudie som kommer att ligga till grund för ett realiserat projekt. Flera frågeställningar behandlas, tex; Vilka behov finns och hur förändras dessa? Hur skiljer sig vanor och rörelsemönster i stugan i jämförelse med i hemmet? Vad innebär det att dela ett extra hem, med olika generationer och genom tid?

The relationship between ancient hominins and modern humans, from a new perspective Many questions followed the discovery and identification of the Neanderthal from the fossil record in 1856 as to its place in the hominin tree and its relationship with modern humans. Was it a direct ancestor? A remote cousin? Or did it mix with humans? Once reliable nuclear DNA data became available in 2010, the

The aim of this study was to investigate how women reason about, and experience what it is like to live in Sweden in the months following the autumn of #metoo the year 2017. In utilizing interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) the accounts of three women can make an academic footprint in our society. Could a mostly digital aspect of a social movement influence how people think about themsel

Denna studie undersöker personalisering av politik och syftar till att åskådliggöra hur personliga och politiska berättelser konstrueras och förhåller sig till varandra på en samtida politikers egen kommunikationskanal. Tidigare forskning har tenderat att bortse från dessa kanaler och har främst fokuserat på personalisering av politik utifrån ett nyhetsmediaperspektiv. Det råder en brist på konsenThis study examines the personalization of politics and aims to investigate how personal and political narratives are constructed and related to each other on a politician's own communication channel. Previous research has tended to disregard these channels and mainly focused on personalization from a news media perspective. Whilst there is a lack of consensus regarding the spread of personali

I denna studie undersöks bildningsprocesser och klimatologisk betydelse av hur av årsmoräner bildas vid Gornergletscher, en stor alpin dalglaciär i de södra schweiziska Alperna. Ett särskilt fokus ligger på moränryggar som har bildats mellan 2007 och 2019, en period då glaciären har retirerat snabbt och det har skett en tydlig förtunning av isfronten. Dessa moräner uppvisar olika geomorfologiska oThis study examines genetic processes and climatological significance of annual moraine formation in the foreland of Gornergletscher, a large alpine-valley glacier located in the southern Swiss Alps. A particular focus is set on moraine ridges that have been forming between 2007 and 2019, a period when the glacier has been subject to accelerated retreat and pronounced frontal thinning. These morai

I denna uppsats har vi med hjälp av retoriska verktyg som stilfigurer, Toulmins argumentationsmodell samt argumentativa grundbegrepp genomfört en deskriptiv redogörelse för vilka retoriska element som Statsminister Stefan Löfvens “Tal till nationen” innehåller. Dessa har vi disponerat efter dispositio och därefter analyserat utifrån en prisma av teorier om nationen och nationsidentitet. Analysen rIn this thesis, through the use of rhetorical tools, we have carried out a descriptive report of the rhetorical elements found in Prime Minister Stefan Löfven’s speech “Speech to the nation”. These we have arranged by disposition and analyzed through a prism of theories of nation and nation identity. This analysis resulted in an insight that through the speech, the Swedish nation actually presents

Due to globalization, increasing amounts of water are traded across borders as virtual water embodied in traded products. The thesis traces global water trade patterns at different levels of income between 1990 and 2015 in order to test whether developed countries outsource their water-intensive production to less developed countries increasing global water use in the process. The research problem

This thesis explores the radioactive image and poses the multi-layered question: ‘(how) can radioactivity exist as an image, when it cannot be seen, heard or felt?’. By having no sensorial qualities, radioactivity is often narrated in popular media by metaphoric association. Through close analyses of selected scenes from HBO’s tv-series Chernobyl (2019) the study suggests that a variety of tropes

Visste ni att världens jordar innehåller mer än dubbelt så mycket kol som atmosfären och mer än tre gånger så mycket som alla växter? Mikroorganismer i jorden, som bakterier och svampar, står för en betydande del av koldioxidflödet mellan jorden och atmosfären. Idag ser vi klimatförändringar som innebär längre perioder med torka och intensivare regn. Mikroorganismer i marken likt alla andra påveClimate change will result in altered precipitation cycles, which might reduce the soil carbon storage. Respiration and growth by soil microbes including fungi and bacteria, play an important role in regulating the terrestrial carbon cycle and thus have an impact on climate feedbacks. It has been shown that microbes can respond in two different patterns after drought followed by rewetting, either

Allt fler organisationer använder sig idag av det digitala kommunikationsverktyget “chatbots” i sin kundtjänst för att kommunicera med sina användare. Den främsta anledningen till att chatbots i form av kundtjänst blir allt vanligare på organisationers webbsidor är att de kan effektivisera verksamheten och därmed reducera kostnader. Det har alltså skett en förändring i hur organisationer kommuniceToday, organizations are using the digital communicative tool ‘chatbot’ in their cus-tomer service to communicate with their customers. The main reason for using this new technology on organizations’ websites is that chatbots can make the customer service more efficient, hence reduce organizational costs. As a result, the chatbots have altered the way organizations and customers communicate with o

The purpose of this thesis is to develop a comprehensive understanding of the distinction between diversity and inclusion in managing diversity, thereby elucidating the effects of workforce diversity in the organization. We drew upon the combination of two frameworks regarding diversity perspective and diversity climate to examine the reflections of diversity and inclusion in the organization. The

Intresset för miljöfrågor har de senaste åren ökat, och likaså har vikten av dem. Enligt direktiv från EU ska alla byggnader som byggs inom EU efter år 2021 byggas som så kallade nära- nollenergibyggnader. Att bygga energisnålt kan därmed komma att bli allt mer populärt och nödvändigt. Ett passivhus är en byggnad vars syfte är att ha en låg energiförbrukning samtidigt som en god inomhusmiljö kan u

This thesis takes 200 Chinese listed companies as examples within ten years from 2009 to 2018, of which 100 are ST companies and the other 100 are non-ST companies. ST company is a company that has financial problems and was then implemented with special treatment by the China Securities Regulatory Commission. The traditional credit risk measurement model, the Z-Score model, is chosen to be compar

This thesis conducts an auteur analysis of John Ford films containing submarines with the method of textual analysis. The films that are being analyzed are The Blue Eagle (1926), Men Without Women (1930), Seas Beneath (1931), Submarine Patrol (1938) and The Growler Story (1958). The purpose is to find out which distinctive auteur themes that can be identified in each of these films. The results in

Bakgrund: Det råder en uttalad brist på operationssjuksköterskor i dagens hälso- och sjukvård. En del av denna brist kan förklaras av en åldrande personalgrupp och en allt mer utmanande arbetsmiljö. Begränsad insyn av operationssalar och det perioperativa arbetet leder till förutfattade meningar bland sjuksköterskor och sjuksköterskestudenter rörande operationssjuksköterskans yrkesroll, vilket får

CERN operates the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator. The LHC was built to advance the state of knowledge in particle physics by increasing the energy of colliding particles to the TeV range. With this increase in capability comes increased fire safety challenges, including the need for more accurate assessment of fire-induced release of radioac

The aim of this study was to examine students gaming habits and what function playing computer games fulfil for students. The study was conducted with the help of a survey methodology and was sent to 500 students at Lunds university. The students got selected via an unbound random selection. 52 participants answered the survey. They majority of students plays computer games. Regarding those who pl

This study explains the post-9/11 localization strategy of al-Qaida by examining its role in anti-state jihad in Pakistan. The central argument of this study is that al-Qaida harnessed the domestic problems of Pakistan to incubate an anti-state jihadist movement in the country, which came to be led by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan. Leveraging a systematized set of narratives of al-Qaida and TTP l

The risk of pluvial flooding is going to increase as climate change causes an increase in intense precipitation along with urbanisation leading to an increase in impermeable surfaces. In the last decade, cities such as Malmö and Copenhagen have already experienced severe pluvial flooding that has caused extensive damage. Adapting to climate change by creating flood resilient urban areas is therefo
