Adaptive flexibility in migratory behaviour of shorebirds

Popular Abstract in Swedish I århundranden har vi människor fascinerats av flyttfåglar och frågat oss vart de ska, var de kommer ifrån och hur de hittar. Idag, tack vare forskning, vet vi mer om fågelflyttning än någonsin, men det finns fortfarande mycket kvar att ta reda på. Vadare som häckar i Arktis är riktiga långflyttare med många arter som flyttar mer än 10 000 kilometer varje vår och höst oThe phenomenon of bird migration has long fascinated us humans and it has prompted questions like where do they go or come from and how do they find their way? Arctic shorebirds are well known for their spectacular long-distance migrations with some species travelling more than 10 000 km every spring and autumn, and some even cover this distance in one single nonstop flight. The aim of my thesis w

15-årsuppföljning av drogberoende personer.

En representativ sample drogberoende patienter på sjukhus 1988 - 89 (n=125) följdes upp vid 5 år och vid 15 år. Kliniska ata och utfallsdata registrerades vid indevårdtillfället och vid uppföljningarna med en semistrukturerad intervju omfattande demografiska karakteristika, kliniska diagnoser kompletterade med kliniska test och skattningsskalor. Registerdata används för validering och jämförelse.

Reflection, Lore and Acting : The Practitioner’s Approach

The article discusses how the practitioner’s – i. e. the actor’s − knowledge and experiences could form a base for artistic research. As an example the author uses actor Ann Petrén’s Master thesis and his own PhD. The author presents how the term lore could offer a useful concept to describe the different levels of bodily experiences, knowledges and even theories present in the actor’s work. The d

Normative childhood repetitive routines and obsessive compulsive symptomatology in 6-year-old twins

Background: To investigate the association between normative repetitive routines of childhood and paediatric obsessive compulsive symptom syndrome (OCSS) and the extent to which it is genetically mediated. Methods: In a two-phase design a community sample of 4,662 6-year-old twin-pairs were sampled and 854 pairs were assessed in the second phase for normative repetitive routines using the Childhoo

Hushållsel-Energieffektivisering i vardagen

Tre funktionsområden i vardagslivet har analyserats grundligt nämligen Hel och ren, Mätt och belåten samt Underhållning och information. Användningen av hushållsel har ökat från 9,2 med cirka 10 TWh under en tidsperiod på drygt tre decennier. Ökningen förklaras bland annat av att antalet hushåll har ökat, men även av att innehavet av apparater ökat i hushållen. Dessutom har användningsmönster kr

Using WordNet to Extend FrameNet Coverage

We present two methods to address the problem of sparsity in the FrameNet lexical database. The first method is based on the idea that a word that belongs to a frame is ``similar'' to the other words in that frame. We measure the similarity using a WordNet-based variant of the Lesk metric. The second method uses the sequence of synsets in WordNet hypernym trees as feature vectors that can be used

International benchmarking of e-learning at Lund University, Sweden - Aims and results

In 2008-2009 Lund University, Sweden, took part in two European benchmarking projects on eLearning, E-xcellence+ (EADTU) and Benchmarking eLearning exercise2009 (ESMU) as part of the University’s policy for quality assurance and quality enhancement of education. Among the aims were · to adopt, as the first Swedish university, a benchmarking process according to quality criteria of eLearning formul

Vulnerability Analyses of Interdependent Technical Infrastructures

In this chapter, the modelling framework presented in Chap. 5 will be used to perform vulnerability analyses from three perspectives: global vulnerability, critical components, and geographical vulnerability. Two case studies of two real-world interdependent infrastructure systems are performed; one focusing on an electric distribution system coupled with a water distribution system, and one focus

Hyperelastic constants from a modified hardness test using energy balance obtained from FE-analysis

In order to simplify the hyperelastic characterisation of rubber materials, an extension of the standard hardness test is proposed. A number of indentation depths are chosen for the hardness test and the indentation forces for these depths are recorded. By this modification, hyperelastic constants can be derived from the test, providing more information from the test by a small extra effort. Equiv

Ghosts also cry [Review of the motion picture Volver].

Reviews the film, Volver, directed by Pedro Almodóvar (2006). At the beginning of this extraordinary film, women in a small Spanish town tend to the graves of their departed; at the end, what some would consider a female "ghost" nurses a relative with cancer, as a haunting shot of a wooden door with cracks of light slowly turns dark, reminding us that in the blackness that will engulf us at the en
