Packaging Logistics is a concept that recognises the need for coordination of the packaging system and its manifold functions throughout a package’s life cycle. Packaging Logistics is an area in need for substantial theoretical building. This dissertation elaborates on its underpinnings and suggests conceptual models that should be useful in better understanding the core of the concept, its undere

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: När udda blir mainstream - om stress och likriktning i växtsamhället I skogen råder stress på många sätt, och precis som i det mänskliga samhället har stressen i växtsamhället ökat under de senaste decennierna. Dessa händelser har heller inte skett oberoende av varandra.

In southern Sweden, the deposition of acidifying substances, such as nitrogen and sulphur compounds, has decreased the mean pH of forest soils by almost one unit since the 1950s. Apart from H+ ions themselves being harmful to plant roots, the potential toxicity of aluminium (Al) is increased when pH drops below 5

Estimation of high-resolution multidimensional spectra from unevenly sampled limited sized data sets plays an important role in a large variety of signal processing applications. In this work, we develop a high-resolution non-parametric estimator for unevenly sampled N-dimensional data based on a recently introduced iterative method, the so-called iterative adaptive approach (IAA). The proposed es

Bioaerosols include bacterial cells and spores, viruses, pollen, fungi, algae, detritus, allergens and cell fragments. Bioaerosol particles are usually a small fraction of all aerosol particles in our surroundings, but their impact can be critical. They are a means for transmission of disease, they cause allergic reactions and they have effects on the global climate, ecology and biodiversity. This

A previous article by the author demonstrated that the supplier of corrugated board in the relationship studied cannot be considered a strategic supplier. Despite this, the manufacturing company has chosen to go through with the efforts of supplier integration with the supplier of corrugated board. This indicates a difference in the driving forces and the future nature of the relationship between
