Brief Admission by Self-referral (BA), a standardized crisis intervention for individuals with repeated self-harm or suicidal behavior, was adapted for adolescents from 13 years in Region Skåne, Sweden, in 2018. BA aims to offer access to support based on autonomy and has been associated with reduced need of emergency care. Interviews with adolescents and legal guardians have pointed to BA as valu

Women who have sex with women are a sexual minority often omitted from sexuality education curricula and school-based sexuality education. This study aimed to explore the sexuality education experiences of young women who have sex with women in German-speaking Switzerland. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 participants (aged 18–25 years) and analysed using qualitative content analy

Denna avhandling undersöker överlevnad och långsiktiga utfall hos kritiskt sjuka COVID-19-patienter som vårdades på intensivvårdsavdelningar (IVA) i Skåne mellan maj 2020 och maj 2021. Vi syftade till att fylla kunskapsluckor genom att genomföra en prospektiv, multicenterstudie där vi följde 498 IVA-patienter under tre år och utvärderade dödlighet, funktionella, fysiska och psykiska utfall, samt hThis thesis investigates the survival and long-term outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) in the Skåne region of Sweden between May 2020 and May 2021. We aimed to address knowledge gaps by conducting a prospective, multicentre cohort study following 498 ICU patients over three years, evaluating mortality, functional, physical, and mental outcomes, as

It is widely believed that Friedrich Hayek's first encounter with Gunnar Myrdal involved the latter's last-minute contribution, as a replacement for Erik Lindahl, to a Sammelband edited by the former in 1933, and that Hayek was lukewarm toward Myrdal and his ideas from the very beginning. Correspondence between the two shows that, in fact, their interaction about this contribution began two years

For Rosa Barba, cinema “allows time and space to vibrate, collapse, overlap, and extend.” Barba’s conceptual explorations of film probe historical records, personal narratives, and the sensory experience of celluloid, often by documenting natural landscapes and human-made changes to the environment. This installation spans 15 years of Barba’s work, featuring film, kinetic sculpture, and sound. A n

This thesis investigates the spectral properties of magnetic and nonmagnetic Schrödinger operators, which haveapplications in the distribution of superconductivity in type II superconductors and wave theory. The thesis beginswith an introduction to the main results in the field, giving a more detailed presentation for clarity. Next, we focuson the original research articles conducted by the author

This paper assesses the communication and the use of climate scenarios at the science–science and science–policy interface in Finland, Sweden and Norway. It is based on document analysis and stakeholder questionnaires. The questionnaires targeted three stakeholder groups, all engaged in the communication and the use of climate scenario information: climate scenario producers; impact, adaptation an

A physical lake model was employed to obtain a basis of discussing the impact of climate variability and climate change on the ecology of Lake Erken, Sweden. The validity of this approach was tested by running the PROBE-lake model for a 30-year period (STD) with observed meteorological data. The lake is adequately modelled, as seen in the comparison with actual lake observations. The validated lak

The increasing global demand for food will be met chiefly by increased intensification of production. For crops, this will be achieved largely by increased yields per area with a smaller contribution from an increased number of crops grown in a seasonal cycle. Production systems show a spectrum of intensification practices characterised by varying methods of site preparation and pest control, and

Rosa Barba's exhibition Meaning Distances opens this year's 25 FPS Festival at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Zagreb, bringing together a selection of sculptural film works. Barba’s conceptual explorations of film probe historical records, personal narratives, and the sensory experience of cinema and sound, often by recording natural landscapes and human-made changes to the environment. Landsca

A mid career retrospective exhibition celebrating the work of artist and filmmaker Rosa Barba, whose practice destabilses the conceptual terms of cinematic space.

Wind turbines are important for achieving renewable energy goals, but present a considerable threat to wildlife, especially birds and bats. This study reports 41 confirmed collisions of GPS-tracked Red Kites (Milvus milvus) with wind turbines across Europe (2017–2024). We compared environmental and turbine-specific factors during collisions and non-collision movements within 500 m of turbines. Col

Four downscaling experiments of regional climate change for the Nordic countries have been conducted with three different regional climate models (RCMs). A short synthesis of the outcome of the suite of experiments is presented as an ensemble, reflecting the different driving atmosphere-ocean general circulation model (AOGCM) conditions, RCM model resolution and domain size, and choice of emission

The Swedish regional climate modelling programme, SWECLIM, started in 1997 with the main goal being to produce regional climate change scenarios over the Nordic area on a time scale of 50 to 100 yr. An additional goal is to produce water resources scenarios with a focus on hydropower production, dam safety, water supply and environmental aspects of water resources. The scenarios are produced by a

Two 2 x 10-year climate change experiments made with the Rossby Centre regional Atmospheric climate model (RCA) are reported. These two experiments are driven by boundary data from two global climate change simulations, one made with HadCM2 and the other with ECHAM4/OPYC3, in which the global mean warning is virtually the same, 2.6°C. The changes in mean temperature and precipitation show similari

This work presents a regional climate model, the Rossby Centre regional Atmospheric model (RCA1), recently developed from the High Resolution Limited Area Model (HIRLAM). The changes in the HIRLAM parametrizations, necessary for climate-length integrations, are described. A regional Baltic Sea ocean model and a modeling system for the Nordic inland lake systems have been coupled with RCA1. The cou
