Methane and Nitrous Oxide Budgets for Australasia : A Regional Assessment of Natural and Anthropogenic Sources and Sinks

We present the CH4 and N2O budgets for anthropogenic and natural sources and sinks of Australasia (Australia and New Zealand) from 2010 to 2019 using bottom-up and top-down methods, in line with the RECCAP-2 initiative, with extensions to 2022. We show that the bottom-up CH4 budget for Australasia (2010–2019) was a net source of 14.1 ± 5.5 Tg CH4 yr−1, with Australia and New Zealand contributing 8

Strongly coupled inert scalar sector with radiative neutrino masses

We explore the phenomenological consequences of a model with an extended scalar sector, incorporating strongly coupled inert Higgs doublets. The model introduces three Higgs doublets: one that interacts with the SU(2) symmetry of the Standard Model, and two inert doublets belonging to a strongly interacting sector, embedded in the SU(2)2 × SU(2)1 × U(1)Y electroweak gauge symmetry. This symmetry s

Gathering the grassroots: farmer groups as vehicles for political mobilization of small-scale farmers in Uganda

Collective action by small-scale farmers can contribute significantly toward rural development. One important aspect that remains relatively neglected, especially in research set in Africa, is the role of farmer collectives in political processes. We study the local-level dynamics of a farmer-based organization mobilizing for agroecology and food sovereignty in Uganda. Through qualitative, collabo

The Original Salutogenic Framework

This chapter explains vital elements in the salutogenic model of health and how these fit into the inner core of health promotion expressed in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion. Salutogenesis, is here considered as a theory, a life orientation and as the sense of coherence. In line with the salutogenic theory, health is described as a process in an ease/dis-ease continuum, defined as the mov

Simplifying strangeness fluctuations through balance functions in proton–proton collisions

Recent measurements of event-by-event fluctuations of multistrange baryons and kaons in proton–proton collisions by ALICE have been proposed as sensitive probes to distinguish between thermal and string-based hadronization mechanisms. We demonstrate that two key observables – the normalized net-Ξ second-order cumulant and the net-K–net-Ξ Pearson correlation coefficient – can be re-expressed in ter

Experiences of Ethical Review : Perspectives of Swedish Researchers in Social Science and Humanities

This paper presents the results from a qualitative study with Swedish researchers in the social sciences and the humanities. The aim of the study was to explore researchers’ perceptions of ethical review (i.e. the pros and cons of the system) and to what extent the system of ethical review could possibly be reformed to better accommodate research in the social sciences and the humanities. To this

Climate-Driven Increase in Transmission of a Wildlife Malaria Parasite Over the Last Quarter Century

Climate warming is expected to influence the prevalence of vector-transmitted parasites. Understanding the extent to which this is ongoing, or has already occurred, requires empirical data from populations monitored over long periods of time, but these studies are sparse. Further, vector-disease research involving human health is often influenced by disease control efforts that supersede natural t

All-gluon amplitudes with off-shell recursion in multiplet bases

The efficient computation of color-summed QCD amplitudes at high parton multiplicities remains a central challenge for precision collider predictions. Existing approaches using trace, color-flow, or adjoint bases suffer from non-orthogonality, which complicates the color algebra and scales poorly with multiplicity. In this work, we present an off-shell recursive framework for computing all-gluon t

John Cassian, Rhetoric and Education : Reading the Conferences as Elaborated Chreias

John Cassian’s writings reveal an extensive education. In his works, he reflects on his own education, such as a case of mnemotechnical distraction, and also provides education for his readers. But it is also clear that he employs his own rhetorical education by using conscious rhetorical strategies. This third aspect is the focus of this article. In Late Antique higher education, the chreia was oJohn Cassian’s writings reveal an extensive education.

Feasibility of a Person-Centred Nursing Model Targeting Patient and Family Caregiver Needs in Allogeneic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Background/Objectives: Undergoing intensive cancer treatment, such as allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, challenges the entire life situation of patients and their family caregivers. A prerequisite for effective care is that interventions are tailored to the unique circumstances of each individual. The aim of this study was to examine the feasibility of a developed person-centred

The impact of changing forest composition in Europe - longest carbon turnover time in unmanaged and broadleaved deciduous forests

Forests play a crucial role in Europe’s strategy for achieving carbon neutrality. Carbon turnover time - the time that carbon spends in the ecosystem - is a fundamental component in determining forest potential to mitigate climate change. However, there is a significant knowledge gap regarding how current and future forest management practices will affect carbon turnover time. This study aims to c

Metabolic syndrome in childhood, adolescent, and young adult cancer survivors: recommendations for surveillance from the International Late Effects of Childhood Cancer Guideline Harmonization Group

Objective: Survivors of childhood, adolescent, and young adult (CAYA) cancer have an increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS). MetS describes the clustering of cardiovascular risk factors including overweight or obesity, hypertension, (pre)diabetes, and dyslipidaemia. While associated cardiovascular sequelae can be serious, MetS is preventable, manageable, and potentially reversible with the ap

A Snapshot Inventory of an Islet in the Baltic Sea

A brief presentation of a snapshot hymenopteran inventory of Stora Karlsö, Gotland, carried out in 2023. This was a follow-up inventory of another snapshot inventory done by Stigenberg et al. in 2014.

Unified Biosignal Acquisition in Virtual Reality - An Experimental Platform for EEG, EMG, and Joint Angle Data Collection

This thesis presents the development and evaluation of a virtual reality (VR) environment designed for integrated EEG, EMG, and joint movement data collection. The system combines immersive VR with biosignal acquisition technologies, including the Unicorn Hybrid Black EEG, the Myo Armband for electromyography and inertial sensing, and the Cyberglove for hand joint tracking. The goal was to create

Globalt problem – Lokala lösningar - en explorativ studie gällande det kommunala klimatarbetet hos mindre kommuner

Mindre kommuner är i uppstartsfasen med sitt klimatarbete. Hur ser klimatarbetet ut i mindre kommuner? Många storstäder och stora kommuner framhävs som progressiva klimatkämpar som arbetar aktivt med att bli både hållbara och klimatneutrala. Men storstäder och stora kommuner har ett större skatteunderlag och har resurserna att både anställa den lämpliga kompetensen och budgetera för olika klimat-There is scientific consensus today on the importance of local climate work. Many studies have investigated the mechanisms behind effective climate work and what makes some cities and large municipalities the frontrunners in driving progressive climate agendas. While this area of local climate work is well researched there is little research about how climate work looks like in small (non-rural) m
