Spatial heterogeneity of soil CO2 efflux at ADVEX site Norunda in Sweden

Denna studie undersöker den rumsliga variationen i markens koldioxid-utflöde (CO2) i en boreal blandskog, huvudsakligen dominerad av tall (Pinus sylvestris L.) och gran (Picea abies L.) i ADVEX experimentsite i Norunda, centrala Sverige. Mätningar av markens CO2 gjordes i 72 collars omkring huvudtornet med hjälp av en LI-6250 infraröd gasanalysapparat kopplad till en hemmagjord mörkkammare. Medelv

Communicating science: Motives and methods for the communication of science in the 21st century: A qualitative study of selected parts of the Swedish Science Communication establishment, press releases, Expertsvar and the practice of research blogging.

Background: In todayʼs fast moving world, the communication of science and technology is playing an increasingly important role for the relation between science and the public. Both journalists and researchers have their own agenda when communicating as public interest, corporate science and the competition for funding increases. At the same time, the conditions on which stories about science can

International unlawful parental child abduction. Comparative study: Lithuania, Sweden, and Russia.

Globaliseringen har haft en stor inverkan på människors privata relationer. Den ökade migrationen har avsevärt ökat chanserna för att människor slår sig ner och startar familj utanför sina hemländer. Detta arbete visar att föräldrar från internationella familjer begår mer än hälften av alla olovliga internationella barnbortföranden eller kvarhållanden till/i sina hemstater. Övriga fall svarar de fGlobalisation has made its impact not the least on peoples’ private relations. The increased migration has made chances of people settling down and starting family outside their home countries rather high. The thesis has shown that parents from international families commit more than half of international parental abductions or retentions to/in their home states. The remaining group of parents sim

LiDAR mapping of presumed rock-cored drumlins in the Lake Åsnen area, Småland, South Sweden

Landskapsformen drumlin har länge diskuterats inom akademin och den här studen syftar till att sprida lite ljus över dom. Genom att kartlägga två drumlinområden runt sjön Åsnen i Småland, södra Sverige har deras utsträckning kartlagts med en precision som länge ansetts omöjligt. Detta gjordes genom att använda hög upplösta hillshade modeller framtagna från LiDAR data för att efter att ha analysera

The application of resistivity and IP-measurements as investigation tools at contaminated sites : a case study from Kv. Renen 13, Varberg, SW Sweden

Kv. Renen 13 i centrala Varberg är sedan tidigare känt som kraftigt förorenat. På fastigheten har det från slutet av 1800-talet fram till 2003 funnits verksamheter i form av textilindustri som avlösts av finmekanisk verkstadsindustri. Det är framförallt den sistnämnda verksamheten som har orsakat rådande situation med höga halter klorerade lösningsmedel, trikloreten (TCE) och 1,1,1-trikoletan (TCA

Carbonatites at the Alnö Complex, Sweden and along the East African Rift : a literature review

Carbonatite is an unusual type of rock that, for a long time, were not accepted for what they really are. This group of rocks is now considered to be of igneous origin and is classified after its content of carbonate minerals. If it exceed 50% the rock will be named a carbonatite. This group of rocks can be found all over the world and two of these places, which this review will focus on, are the

The Integrated Reporting Journey and the Influence of Sustainability Reporting - Experiences and Practices from Sweden and Germany

Integrated reporting is an approach to corporate reporting that seeks to integrate significant financial and non-financial information and demonstrate how they are connected to each other. By doing so, integrated reporting is expected to lead to integrated thinking and decision-making, reflecting how an organisation impacts and is impacted by the economic, social and environmental context in which

Practical approach towards degrowth transition : a case study of an emerging ecovillage in Kalmar, Sweden

Degrowth refers to an alternative human society which is simplistic, cooperative and opposite of current growth system which is based on overproduction and overconsumption. The current growth trend is indisputably unsustainable for the future being of the earth and its’ population. Resource depletion, land degradation and climate change have become inevitable due to growth system, overproduction a

Locating potential flood areas in an urban environment using remote sensing and GIS, case study Lund, Sweden

Stadsmiljöer är ofta sårbara vid katastrofer eller extrema väderhändelser. En anledning till detta är att stora delar av de tätbebyggda områden som utgör en stadsmiljö består av ytor som inte tillåter vatteninfiltrering. Detta kan medföra att vissa områden i en stad är mer benägna än andra att drabbas av översvämning. Att lokalisera översvämningsbenägna ytor är en viktig del i en stads uppbyggnad Impervious surfaces, such as large parts of the urban area, reduce infiltration and increase above ground runoff (Chen et al. 2009) with risk of flooding as a result. Urban flooding has the potential to affect a large amount of people, and can cause great harm to economic interests. Therefore it is important to locate potential areas prone to flooding, and have storm water regimes in mind when pla

Control of Swedish wind power plants meeting future grid codes in a changing power market

Climate change is an issue that can no longer be ignored and actions are taken all over the world in order to prevent the effects from becoming too severe. The energy system is transitioning towards more renewable energy sources and wind power has an important role in this development. The penetration of wind power in a lot of countries all over the world has increased rapidly during the last deca
