Only one fifth of children aged 11–17 years are physically active for 60 min (min)/day. As physical activity (PA) levels track from childhood to adulthood, it is important to establish healthy PA behavior early in life. This study aims to evaluate whether daily school PA is associated with objectively measured PA independently of other socioecological factors. This study includes 209 children (120

År 2013 genomförde EU en reform av den gemensamma jordbrukspolitiken som bland annat syftade till att göra den mer miljövänlig. Ett förgröningsstöd infördes för att öka den biologiska mångfalden och därtill relaterade ekosystemtjänster. Reformen analyseras för att förstå hur den påverkat jordbrukets markanvändning och vilka effekter den har fått för miljön. Vi finner att:- Förgröningsåtgärderna i

On the 11th October 2016 the opposition Labour Party presented the ruling Conservative UK government with a list of 170 questions – one for each day before Theresa May’s self-imposed deadline to start the process of leaving the EU. A more realistic list of questions in the UK’s ‘Brexit’ debate right now would consist of 17 000 questions – the four decade-old UK-EU relationship raises so many quest

As the introductory chapter sets out, this volume critically interrogates the EU as a global actor and its normative power in global politics as part of the 2013 European Research Day of the Centre for European Research at Gothenburg University. This chapter will conclude this interrogation by providing a Copenhagen reflection on the EU as a global actor within the context of the Normative Power A

The repeated occurrence of severe wildfires has highlighted the need for development of effective vegetation moisture monitoring tools. The normalized difference infrared index (NDII) derived from SPOT Vegetation satellite data and the Keetch-Byram drought index derived from temperature and rainfall data are both related to vegetation moisture dynamics. Autocorrelation of time series is a major is

Man brukar höra att evolution handlar om att de starkaste, de bäst lämpade, överlever. Detta för tankarna till en värld full med översittare, som hänsynslöst driver fram och lämnar de svaga bakom sig. Men det behöver inte vara så. Denna avhandling visar oss att gemenskap är styrka, och att evolutionen skapar liv där de svaga ibland sitter på de starkas axlar.Strutsar är märkliga varelser. De ser uPeople are used to hearing that evolution is about the survival of the fittest. Theyimagine a world full of bullies that ruthlessly fight their way to the top in the struggle for life, leaving the weak behind. But this doesn’t need be the case. This thesis reveals a different side of evolution, where survival means working together, and where the weak can ride on the shoulders of the fit.Ostriches

In this paper, we perform a belief propagation (BP) decoding threshold analysis of spatially coupled (SC) turbo-like codes (TCs) (SC-TCs) on the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. We review Monte-Carlo density evolution (MC-DE) and efficient prediction methods, which determine the BP thresholds of SC-TCs over the AWGN channel. We demonstrate that instead of performing time-consuming MC-
