Summary: Manama Mission is a Lutheran mission station in the Gwanda District, Zimbabwe, that suffers from a shortage in water supply. Its only source of water at present is a sand dam in the nearby Tuli river. During June, July and August 1990 a ground water study was carried out at the mission. This was done by Patrich Holmström, Per Möller and Mats Svensson, students at University of Lund, Swede

Summary: This study deals with local vegetation and land use history contemporary with prehistory clearance cairns and stone walls in the area of Rösered, province of Västergötland, south-western Sweden. Pollen analysis of a humusrich layer buried below a stone wall was carried out. It revealed that: -the layer developed as mull, first in open woodland dominated by birch, later in grassland with

Summary: This sedimentological study was carried out within Theme B of the ESF associated programme PONAM (Polar North Atlantic Margins - Late Cenozoic Evolution). This part of the programme is focused on the glaciation history during the last interglacial-glacial cycle in the Scoresby Sund area, East Greenland, and the Svalbard archipelago. The main objective of Theme B is to compare the history

Summary: The investigated area - the parish of Baldringe lies c. 10 km north of Ystad in the province of Skåne, southern Sweden. The area is a part of the inner hummocky landscape. Samples for pollen analysis were taken in an alder fen, surrounded by pastures. The locality is named Skogshejdan, and is situated within the former outlying land to the village Baldringe. The main purpose of the study

In orogenic belts, the relations between basement and cover rocks are important because of the information they give about the nature and evolution of the belt. In the Scandinavian Caledonides, basement-cover contacts can be found in windows where Precambrian basement has been exposed in antiformal structures, due to the deep erosion level of the mountain chain. The Grong-Olden Culmination (NE of

A rich palaeospinacid selachian fauna, comprising 1141 isolated teeth, has recently been collected from the latest Early Campanian strata ofthe Kristianstad Basin. Four palaeospinacid species have been found: Synechodus perssoni nov.sp., Synechodus lerichei Herman 1977, Paraorthacodus andersoni (Case 1978) and Paraorthacodus conicus (Davis 1890). The recovered material suggests that only ontogenet

Uppsatsen undersöker skönlitterärt, isländskt bildspråk i svensk översättning. Fokus för studien ligger på litterära, det vill säga nyskapade, metaforer och de övriga, utvalda bildspråkskategorierna används i jämförande syfte. För ändamålet används Englar alheimsins, en roman av Einar Már Guðmundsson. Den svenska översättningen av Inge Knutsson jämförs med det isländska originalet i syfte att få r

Quantum memories are used for storing the quantum mechanical states of photons and release identical photons at a later time. This has many applications within the field of quantum computing and is also essential in order to achieve long range quantum communication and cryptography. In this thesis Atomic frequency comb (AFC) quantum memories were investigated. In particular, three-level memory sch

Summary: The aim of this palaeoecological study is to demonstrate and date human impact during the Mesolithic and the Neolithic time in an area considered to be relatively unsuitable for farming and livestock-breeding. The study area is located on the Kullaberg peninsula in northwestern Skåne, South Sweden. The peninsula constitutes a hilly bedrock terrain with Quaternary deposits in the topograph

The conodont fauna recovered from the Arenig strata of the "Stenbrottet" quarry represents two biozones, i. e. the underlying Baltoniodus triangularis/B. navis Zone and above, the Paroistodus originalis Zone. The thickness of the sediment and the composition of the conodont fauna were compared with those of contemporaneous localities from Öland, Västergötland, Jämtland and Bottenviken. I

In 1987 Swedish Exploration Consortium AB carried out a drilling (Köpingsbergsborrningen 3) in the Vomb Trough, Scania, southern Sweden. The borehole was sited near the town of Ystad and reached the Precambrian crystalline basement at a depth of 1160 m. Foraminiferal faunas obtained from the drill-cuttings indicate that the boring penetrated a Cretaceous and possibly uppermost Jurassic sequence, w

The mid-Rhaetic sequence at Lunnom, with coal and kaolinitic clays, indicates partly deltaic environments affected by alluvial processes during humid conditions. Of special interest is a thin bed of sandstone with coarse, angular quartz grains. The bed occurs mainly as a covering sheet on top of a heterolithic sequence in the eastern parts of the pit, while it is recognized as isolated dunes insid

The Silurian conulariid fauna in the Lower Visby Beds (uppermost Llandovery to lowermost Wenlock) on Gotland includes seven species: Ctenoconularia monile Lindström 1884, Ctenoconularia sp. a, Ctenoconularia sp. b, Conularina sp. a, Conularia scalaris Holm 1893, Metaconularia aspersa Lindström 1884 and Metaconularia sp. a. The research on conulariids has so far been based on macroscopic specimens

The Protogine Zone is a system of steep shear zones running approximately parallel to the boundary between the Svecofennian and the Southwest Scandinavian orogens of southern Sweden. The geological nature of the zone is not very well known, mainly because detailed mapping has not begun until recently. This work is the beginning of an attempt to start changing this situation. An area of l km², situ

This study constitutes a preliminary survey within the project "Lake and groundwater paleohydrology of the Vomb plain, southern Sweden, for quantitative paleoclimatic calibration". The aim of the study is to describe the Holocene sediment stratigraphy of the former lakes Fönesjön and Kalvsjön (Kalvs mosse), and furthermore to describe and date stratgraphical indications of climatically c

Behovet av effektiviseringar för lagföringen av personer som har begått brott har länge diskuterats framförallt ur ett effektiviserings perspektiv men även ur ett processekonomiskt perspektiv. Stora och komplicerade mål skapar långa och resurskrävande utredningar som dessutom låter den misstänkte sväva i ovisshet under en lång tid. Ett förslag som har diskuterats men som än så länge avskrivits äThe need to make the process in which persons who have committed crimes are brought to justice has long been discussed from a efficiency perspective but also from a process economical perspective. Large and complicated cases create long and costly investigations and also make the suspects linger in uncertainty for a long time. One alternative that has been discussed but so far discarded is the i

In the southwest of the county of Värmland, southwestern Sweden, a group of granite intrusions called the Blomskog granite occurs (Lindh, 1977). When the Blomskog granite intruded into the country rock about 900 Ma ago, it was accompanied by several dikes and massifs of pegmatite and pegmatitic granites, which often are garnet-bearing. E1ectron-microprobe studies of these garnets show that they ar

Sammanfattning: Tre kommunala vattentäkter med konstgjord infiltration i sydöstra Småland har studerats. I Emmaboda vattentäkt har infiltrationsvattnet alkaliserats med släckt kalk sedan 1977 och i Kosta med soda sedan 1985. Målsättningen med studien har varit att påvisa förändring i totalhårdhet, alkalinitet samt aluminium- och järnhalt för det konstgjorda grundvattnet sedan alkaliseringen påbörjA water chemistry study has been made at three public water supplies with artificial recharge in the county of Småland in the south of Sweden. At the water system of Emmaboda the surface water has been treated with slaked lime and at the water system of Kosta with soda ash. The aim of this study was to show whether the alkalization has changed the quality of the artificial ground water regarding i
