The purpose of this study is to analyze and understand how branding, image and identity play a role for Nations both to attract and maintain student, customers and motivate volunteers. This will be analyzed by means of the following research questions: “how do the Nations brand themselves?” and “how do members and volunteers of nations understand the Nation’s image and how do they respond to it?”

I flera år har pirat attackerna utanför den Somaliska kusten, i Adenviken och den Indiska Oceanen ständigt ökat och utgjort ett stort problem för den internationella sjöfartsbranschen. Det Internationella Samfundet har med flera olika åtgärder försökt att komma till rätta med problemet men utan att lyckas. Nu har istället redarna tagit problemet i egna händer, och anlitar beväpnade vakter som utfö

In the ongoing work to harmonize legislation throughout the European Union the focus is now set on protecting the weaker party in a contractual agreement. With the increased cross-border trade the consumer’s rights are put to risk due to different national rules throughout the Member States. Consumers that are not familiar with the legislations in other Member States will choose to shop locally so

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Conodonter är stratigrafiskt användbara, fosfatiska mikrofossil, som påträffas i marina sediment mellan senkambrium till slutet av trias (520-210 Ma). Olika formtyper av conodonter, eller conodontelement, byggde tillsammans upp käkapparaten hos det lilla ål-liknande conodontdjuret, som numera räknas till chordaterna. Jag har undersökt förekomsten av conodontsläkSeven taxa of the conodont genus Ctenognathodus (Fay, 1959) sensu Viira, 1982b in the Silurian of Gotland have been described and their occurrence mapped geographically, stratigraphically and related to facies. In addition to C. murchisoni (Pander, 1856) three new species were found; C. n. sp. D, C n. sp. E and C n. sp. I with two subspecies, I and G. Two taxa formerly known as subspecies of Ligon

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: År 1949 upptogs en borrkärna vid Almbackens gård (Södra Sandby) öster om Lund. Kärnan visar ett tvärsnitt genom de sedimentära bergarter, som härrör från den tidiga och mellersta delen av den kambriska perioden. Den totala längden på kärnan är ca 31 m och är i mycket gott skick. Den nedersta delen, översta delen av underkambrium, utgörs av sand- och kalkstenar vThe uppermost Lower Cambrian and Middle Cambrian of the Almbacken drill-core, drilled 1949 in Södra Sandby, are described and correlated with other sections in Scania (the Gislövshammar-2 core and the Forsemölla, Gislövshammar and Brantevik sections). The core consists of Middle Cambrian bituminous alum shales with stinkstone lenses and three beds of fossiliferous limestone, the Andrarum, Exsulans

Samples from the Danian were prepared for study of coccoliths, on one hand with Light Microscopy, on the other hand with Scanning Electron Microscopy to test the different advantages and disadvantages of these methods. Light Microscopy studies can be used for quantitative investigations and Scanning Electron Microscopy studies for quantitative and qualitative investigations of coccoliths. Scanning

A previously unknown fauna of hybodont sharks has been revealed from the Vitabäck Clays at the boundary between the Jurassic and Cretaceous. The material consists of oral teeth, cephalic spines and placoid scales from the five genera Egertonodus, Hybodus, Lissodus, Polyacrodus and Hylaeobatis. The palaeogeographical area and stratigraphical range of the six species found are extended: E. basanus (

Occurrences of high alumina rocks constituted by quartz, kyanite, rutile and Al-phosphates are spatially related with the Protogine Zone, a system of ductile and brittle deformation zones within the Proterozoic crust of southern Scandinavia. A hydrothermal origin has been proposed for high alumina rocks at Västanå, based on the chemistry of these rocks, while gradual transitions between magmatic r

Naturliga metanutsläpp sker från våra våtmarker världen över. Metan produceras naturligt genom nedbrytning i de syrefria förhållanden som en våtmark erbjuder. För att bättre kunna modellera och skala upp hur mycker metan som faktiskt släpps ut från dessa våtmarker måste ytterligare förståelse skapas över varför metanutsläppen varierar så kraftigt både i tid och rum. Denna studie försöker öka förstMethane emissions from natural wetlands are an important contributor to methane levels in the atmosphere. These emissions are highly variable in time and space, even within sites. Further understanding of this variation is vital to successfully model the overall methane emissions from wetlands. This study investigates spatial variation through measurements of 22 plots across Fäjemyr bog. Manual me

The study was conducted by thematic analysis from secondary data such as literatures, reports and website, and ten interviews which respondents’ backgrounds are experts from ready meal and its packaging related areas. The whole paper followed the structure build from the analysis: Servings and portions, Distributions, Ready meal market and its evolution, Consumer perspective, Ready meal packaging

I Skelleftefältet finns idag runt 85 kända VHMS-fyndigheter, i Kristinebergsområdet finns fem av dessa fyndigheter, en av dem är Rävliden. Berggrunden består mestadels av meta-vulkaniter med ryolitisk komposition samt en meta-sedimentär vulkanisk bergart. Skelleftefältet har genomgått åtminstone två metamorfa event. Detta har resulterat i storskalig veckning av området. Fyndigheten i Rävliden liggIn the Skellefte district today there are about 85 known VHMS-deposits, in the Kristinebergs area there are five known deposits, one of them being Rävliden. The supracrustal rock primarily consists of metavolcanic rock of rhyolitic composition and also metasedimentary volcanic rock. The district has gone through at least two metamorphic events. This resulted in the presence of large scale folding.

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to examine the role of online store image in the internationalization process of online retailers. Based on the assumption that a favorable image is a competitive advantage for retailers, this master thesis examines whether or not a favorable domestic online store image, can be replicated in the in- ternationalization process of online retailers. Using a comp

Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) play an important role in the climate system by altering the oxidative capacity of the atmosphere, affecting the lifetime of methane and production of tropospheric ozone, and by contributing to formation of aerosols and clouds. Salix plants (willows) are well-documented emitters of BVOCs and this study aims to examine emissions in a Salix biofuel plantat

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Då man för ner en elektrisk ström i marken kommer vissa material i marken laddas upp p.g.a. att positiva och negativa joner samlar ihop sig på ytor och i trånga porkanaler. Detta kallas för polarisering och kan användas för att bestämma t.ex. vad för typ av geologiska material som finns under markytan eller vart föroreningar i marken tar vägen. Fenomenet som uppIt has been shown that surveys of Induced polarization (IP) often contain data of low quality, because it is highly sensitive against different noise sources. When measuring induced polarization, where the method uses multicore cables and continuous electrode sounding (CVES, Continuous Vertical Electrical Sounding), noise phenomena such as capacitive coupling effects have to be considered. It is p

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Brachiopodernas öde under Irevikenkatastrofen. För ungefär 430 miljoner år sedan, under tidsperioden silur, låg det område som idag är Gotland under havsytan i ett varmt, grunt hav strax söder om ekvatorn. Stora mängder kalk och lera avlagrades på havsbottnen och i havet levde bl.a. cephalopoder, trilobiter, fiskar och brachiopoder (armfotingar), det senare en bThe brachiopod fauna from parts of the Lower and Upper Visby formations on Gotland has been investigated through a combined outcrop and literature study. The strata of these formations were formed during the Ireviken Event, one of the severest identified oceanic events on Gotland, with diversity changes and extinctions among several groups of marine taxa. Seven bulk samples were collected from str
