The “United Nations” (UN) and its “Convention on the Rights of the Child” from 1989 secures them special protecti

Many natural resources lead economies experience worse economic performance than their exports lead counterparts. This phenomenon is known as the Resource Curse, and many resource abundant countries face it. This study is aimed to critically assess existing Resource Curse theory by comparing two seemingly different cases Kazakhstan and Norway. Based on the Resource Curse theory hypothesis suggests

The Sjölunda wastewater treatment plant faces the challenge of tougher demands for the quality of the water leaving the plant and entering the Öresund strait between Denmark and Sweden. At the same time, the population of Malmö with neighbourhood is growing rapidly, which means an increase in the loading on the plant. The residence time for the active microbes, the “sludge”, in the first biologicaAlthough 100 years old, the activated sludge system remains inevitable for modern wastewater treatment. Advancements within the development of mainstream nitrogen removal techniques based on anaerobic ammonium-oxidising bacteria have renewed the interest in traditional, high-loaded activated sludge systems for COD removal only. In order for activated sludge plants to be efficient in terms of energ

Attributional styles have been paid little attention in the organizational context and previous research has mostly focused on the consequences of attributional styles, such as how attributional styles influence work behaviors. Attributional styles development in work settings has thereby been paid little attention, as for example, how individuals’ way of attributing in an organization can be shap

Bakgrund: Att konsumera resor har blivit ett allt vanligare sätt för individer att skapa och förmedla sin identitet.

Resultatet har blivit att individer inte väljer resmål utifrån sina önskemål, utan utifrån vilken bild de vill förmedla av sig själva. Efter

The field of disease proteomics is lacking techniques capable of analysing complex samples with high sensitivity and selectivity. A new MIcroArrays in Solution (MIAS) technology is being developed to addres the technological issues of the current established methods, such as antibody microarrays, 2DE and MS used for protein expression profiling. MIAS technology is based on DNA barcode labeled scFv

Påverkar höjd människors benägenhet att utrymma via sky bridges? Försök i virtuell och fysisk miljö En sky bridge är en allt vanligare lösning för att underlätta förflyttning mellan höga byggnader. Sky bridges kan också användas för att förbättra utrymningssituationen i höga byggnader. För att undersöka hur personer uppfattar utrymning från höga byggnader via sky bridges kan verktyget Virtual ReThis report is a master thesis at Lund University. The aim of this report is to examine how height effects peoples willingness to evacuate from a building using a sky bridge. The study also aims to investigate if Virtual Reality and more specifically Oculus Rift is a useful tool in research regarding evacuation at high elevation. This was investigated by conducting experiments in Virtual Reality.

Cooperative and reciprocal practices within agriculture have been widely discussed as important strategies in order to reduce risks and costs of labour and capital acquisition. Within the Andes reciprocal norms appear to be particularly institutionalized due to their historical rootedness in Andean culture. With the present case study I sought to examine reciprocal exchange practices in agricultur
