The industrial development has during the last century caused a disturbance to the ecological system in the ecosphere, and many industrial processes are still systematically causing harm. In an increasing manner this is raising a demand for technology that reduce the burdens on the ecological system. The innovation of technology that responds to these demands is important, not just for human well

The purpose of this thesis is to develop a comprehensive understanding of the distinction between diversity and inclusion in managing diversity, thereby elucidating the effects of workforce diversity in the organization. We drew upon the combination of two frameworks regarding diversity perspective and diversity climate to examine the reflections of diversity and inclusion in the organization. The

Improving energy efficiency in buildings is an important part of the EU’s ambitions to address climate change and other environmental, social and economic challenges. This is a role that is traditionally taken on by varying levels of governments, each level addressing elements that fall within their areas of jurisdiction. In today’s increasingly decentralised and yet simultaneously complex, integr

This study analyzes the influence techniques applied when hijacking an organizational crisis in order to construct a larger narrative about Sweden. By applying the concepts of narration, mythical speech and moral culture, the study investigates which narrative techniques are applied to generate engagement in disinformation narratives. This was done through conducting a qualitative content analysis

I Bergslagen, Sverige, finns Skandinaviens största tungstenstillgångar, och här har man i årtionden brutit denna värdefulla metall. Brytningen fick dock ett abrupt slut runt 80-talet, men i dagsläget finns planer från prospekterare att återuppta industrin. Bildningsmodellerna för tungstensmineraliseringarna har sedan länge varit omdebatterad, men brett accepterat är att värme från närliggande granCombined U-Pb and REE trace element LA-ICPMS analyses were performed on zircons, from the scheelite-bearing Wigström skarn, associated micro-granitic dykes and the highly evolved parental Högberget (sensu stricto) granite. Combined systematic of zircon typology and microtextures, trace elements and isotopic chemistry suggest the presence of several diverse zircon types, spanning from early- to lat

Companies are spending more money on the SMI marketing strategy than ever. Research does however show that SMIs are viewed as sellouts doing collaborations for personal profit. Hence it is questionable for how authenticity (the number one thing people look for before making a purchase) is perceived and communicated. One does simply not understand how authenticity is perceived, as SMIs themselves a

The aim of this project is to analyse planetary boundary layer height (BLH) measurements from the Hyltemossa research station and find their dependence on seasonality, time of day, and air temperature. Further, investigation was made into the correlation between mass concentration of particulate matter with equivalent diameter<1μm (PM1) and black carbon (BC) aerosol and the BLH and how this varies

The purpose of the thesis is to analyse how a CSR strategy can create a competitive advantage using the CSR Stage Model in a comparison between MAX and McDonald's. It was found that a majority of consumers value a fast-food restaurant’s CSR work and take that into consideration when choosing between restaurants. Moreover, the survey respondents perceived MAX to be the most sustainable fast-foo

The modern economy has put an emphasis on team-led work in both large- and small-scale projects. This has led to ways to maximize the effectiveness of teams, with an increasing focus being put on one key concept: psychological safety. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between psychological safety and team effectiveness through the use of a cross-sectional study design on an IT p

Vindar och moln har stor betydelse för jorden. Vindar är viktiga genom deras påverkan på dagens och framtida väder (och indirekt på prognoser), eftersom de kan transportera varm eller kall luft, fuktig eller torr luft, mellan olika områden och därmed bidra till att väderförhållandena rubbas så fort vindriktningen ändras. Moln är viktiga genom deras påverkan på jordens strålningsbalans. Således är In this study, about two years of data from Östergarnsholm in the Baltic Sea are used to analyse offshore low-level clouds (LLCs) influenced by low-level jets (LLJs) in the marine atmospheric boundary layer. The LLJs are passages of strong horizontal winds near the surface and are measured using a Doppler LiDAR, which provides information about the wind speed and wind direction up to 300 meters. I

Using data spanning from 1910 to 2020, house price dynamics of Stockholm and Gothenburg are found to be significantly affected by income, household debt, interest rates, construction costs and immigration. Real house prices in Stockholm and Gothenburg exhibit debt elasticities of 1.34 and 1.12, noticeably greater than their respective income elasticities of 0.24 and 0.39. Real house prices in both

Recent archaeological excavations have uncovered an Iron Age temple house in Vång providing new context to the centrality of Iron Age central Blekinge in Sweden, as well as its development into the Medieval period. This thesis aims to examine how that development unfolded using the lens of affordance theory combined with a GIS assisted source pluralistic analysis. Comparing Iron Age monuments with

Climate change-induced thawing of permafrost mobilizes previously frozen carbon of high potential reactivity, thereby, fuelling microbiological production of greenhouse gases. For this work, an analysis of the quantity, quality, and bioreactivity of DOC in streams from the Stordalen discontinuous permafrost catchment was carried out with stream water samples during the relatively warm summer of 20

Through the national innovation program Viable Cities, the City of Malmö and the City of Lund in the Region Skåne of southern Sweden have recently undertaken a mission to become climate-neutral by 2030, requiring the commitment and participation of the entire local, urban system in the pursuit and uptake of bottom-up, radical solutions. While small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) make up the
