Approximately 80% of agricultural land in the world is comprised of annual crops which have a life span of only one year. Research has shown that these crops are unsustainable because of these short life spans. Soil erosion, nutrient leaching, and losses of soil carbon are just a few problems caused by annual monocultures. Additionally, with the changing climate, these cropping methods are both vu

The study shows that while auditors rely on their financial audit expertise, the CSRD introduces new complexities requiring interdisciplinary knowledge and enhanced social support structures. Despite the high level of detail and comprehensiveness in the CSRD provisions, applying the directive in practice demands auditors to engage in subjective interpretive work at both the client and regulatory l

This thesis examines how investor nationality influences market reactions in Seasoned Equity Offerings (SEOs). Using a sample of 146 SEOs from 106 unique firms between 2005 and 2024, we analyze whether foreign investor versus domestic investor participation systematically affects market reactions. Foreign-backed SEOs are initially found to generate less negative abnormal returns than domestic offe

Within an extensive research project known as the EuroVaQ project, data on European individuals’ WTP for health was collected through survey methods. This thesis uses data from the EuroVaQ project in order to estimate the WTP per QALY Sweden. The major finding of the study is that the mean value is estimated to SEK 485 685. Furthermore, WTP is positively associated with age and income of the respo

Polycotylid and elasmosaurid plesiosaurs inhabited the Kristianstad Basin during Late Cretaceous (uppermost lower Campanian Belemnellocamax mammillatuszone) around 80 million years ago. The setting represents one of the most famous Mesozoic fossil sites in Scandinavia. The Kristianstad Basin fossils are generally fragmentary and isolated due to high-energy environments in a protected shallow innerPolycotylid and elasmosaurid plesiosaurs inhabited the Kristianstad Basin during Late Cretaceous (uppermost lower Campanian Belemnellocamax mammillatuszone) around 80 million years ago.

Prenatal insults or adverse events during the in-utero period may lead to suboptimal function of adult organs because of the impairment of critical organ development and growth, as linked to lower birth weight. This may ultimately predispose the individual to the later onset of some diseases in adulthood, a process known as Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD). There is ample eviden

A viewpoint about the importance of ethnicity in medical research.

I started with a rather superficial overview of some of the problems that medieval archaeologists have to face when they try to study marginal areas, marginal in the view of those who are living near the political and economic power on one level or another. We can formulate the problems in centre-periphery models but we have also discussed some kind of world system thinking (which of course is con
