Coral reef bleaching in the Red Sea: An investigation into the environmental causes of bleaching

This report aims to investigate the links between various environmental factors and coral bleaching in the Red Sea. Corals in the Red Sea have seen less bleaching than in other coral regions. Researchers point to a higher thermal tolerance among coral reefs in this sea. However, bleaching is beginning to occur here with increasing frequency as oceans warm and acidify. Taking monthly data of sea s

Centering Labour Regime Analysis: The case of a small-scale gold mine as the stage of the competition between the state and illegal armed groups over Colombia’s mining resources

This thesis combines labour regime analysis with Marx’s distinctive class of modern landed property in a case-study situated at the small-scale gold mine La Mina Vincente. It examines how the Colombian state's efforts to formalize artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) intersect with the presence of illegal armed groups, shaping the labour regime of La Mina Vincente. The study makes use of qua

Rollen som butikschef - Upplevt psykiskt välbefinnande och organisatoriskt stöd för butikschefer i klädbranschen

Inledning: Detaljhandelsbranschen karaktäriseras av högt tempo och snabba förändringar i såväl utbud som konsumtionsmönster. Covid-19 har även visat sig ha en påverkan på de fysiska klädbutikerna och bidragit till begränsade resurser. Tidigare forskning har mestadels fokuserat på medarbetarnas psykiska hälsa på arbetsplatsen och chefers hälsa har inte uppmärksammats i lika stor utsträckning. Butik

Monitoring glacier mass change in northern Sweden from 2003 to 2023 using satellite altimetry data

The analysis of glacier mass changes in northern Sweden from 2003 to 2023 employed the non-repeat observation method, utilizing data from altimetry data ICESat and ICESat-2, along with Swedish national DEM and RGI v7.0 glacier boundary. The total volume decreased by -2.78 ± 0.58 km³, corresponding to a total mass loss of 10.41 ± 6.60 m w.e. over the past two decades. These changes contribute appro

From ashes to analysis: Investigating conflict and vegetation fires in Iraq

A quarter of the Earth’s vegetated surfaces have seen an extension in the fire weather season since 1979, with areas in the Middle East still seeing an increase in burned areas although the global average burned area is decreasing. As fires emit 1.6-2.8 Pg carbon annually, the link between fires and climate has been vigorously studied in western and tropical areas, leaving a research gap for arid

Cities today globally face significant problems in the context of the climate crisis. Firstly, in terms of resilience in enduring future challenges – urban heat islands, increasingly frequent flooding, supply chain disruptions, sea level rise among others. Secondly, in terms of contributing to said crisis, through carbon emissions, the erosion of biodiversity through sprawl, overconsumption, and c

Remote sensing-AI based prediction of subsidence in Ararat Valley, Armenia Modeling Ground Subsidence Using InSAR, LSTM Networks, and Remote Sensing Data

The Ararat Valley, being the cereal basket of Armenia and Turkey, is in danger with over-abstracted groundwater, which already induces colossal water loss and land subsidence. In the current work, advanced remote sensing techniques and machine learning models are applied to predict subsidence and give datadriven recommendations to effect sustainable water management. The tracking of terrain change

Domstolarna i Jämtland och jordfrågor efter freden i Brömsebro

På 1600-talet var jorden mycket viktig. Den här uppsatsen handlar om juridiska frågor kopplade till jord, samt arv av jord, i Jämtland efter freden i Brömsebro år 1645. Anledningen till detta är att Jämtland genom freden i Brömsebro blev svenskt från att tidigare ha varit dansk-norskt. Den stora majoriteten av alla jämtar hade även fråntagits sin jord av den danska kungen genom en rannsakning som In the 17th century, land was very important. This essay deals with legal issues connected to land, and inheritance of land, in Jämtland after the Peace of Brömsebro in 1645. The reason for this is that Jämtland became Swedish through the Peace of Brömsebro from having previously been Danish-Norwegian. The vast majority of Jämtland’s inhabitants had also been deprived of their land by the Danish k

Petrografisk pilotstudie av en högmetamorf epidotrik bergart från Harbak, västra gnejsregionen i Norge

Den västra gnejsregionen (VGR) i Norge är ett prekambriskt basementområde i den kaledoniska bergskedjan i Skandinavien. Berggrunden i VGR genomgick metamorfos vid mycket höga tryck och temperaturer när den drogs djupt ned under den kaledonska kontinent-kollisionen. I norra VGR, strax söder om Roan, ligger Harbak-halvön. Berggrunden på Harbak består i huvudsak av bandad amfibolit och olika slags orThe Western Gneiss Region (WGR) in Norway is a high-grade metamorphic domain in the Scandinavian Caledonides that represent the parautochthonous Precambrian Baltica basement that subducted beneath Laurentia during the Caledonian continent collision. In the Northern WGR, south of Roan, lies the Harbak peninsula. The bedrock of Harbak consists of banded amphibolite and various orthogneisses that hav

A shipwrecked group of 19 children: Danish children of foreign fighters

This thesis displays how Danish courts represent Danish children of foreign fighters situated in the al-Roj camp in Syria. Through the use of Carol Bacchi’s ‘What’s the problem represented to be?’-approach to poststructural policy analysis in combination with a theoretical framework of children born of war (CBOW) and the Copenhagen School’s theory of securitization, the thesis answers two main que
