Conodont faunas solve the long-standing problem regarding the relationships between the Hogklint, Tofta, and lower Slite. The name Hangvar Formation is here formally introduced for the strata identified between the Tofta Formation and the Slite Group. The Hangvar Fm. includes marls as far SW as near Paviken (previously Slite Marl), argillaceous limestones (seen only in the most distal areas access

The lifetimes of the first excited states of the N=30 isotones Ca-50 and Sc-51 have been determined using the Recoil Distance Doppler Shift method in combination with the CLARA-PRISMA spectrometers. This is the first time such a method is applied to measure lifetimes of neutron-rich nuclei populated via a multinucleon transfer reaction. This extends the lifetime knowledge beyond the f(7/2) shell c

The relative importance of natural selection in the diversification of organisms. can be assessed indirectly using matrix correspondence. The present study determines the environmental and genetic correlates of microgeographical variation in the growth form, leaf form and flower morphology in populations of four Aeonium species from section Leuconium using partial regression methods. The phylogeny

Previous studies have shown that intrastriatal transplants of dopamine (DA)-rich fetal ventral mesencephalic (VM) tissue can correct denervation-induced changes in the cellular expression of neuropeptide and receptor mRNAs in the rat Parkinson model. However, with the standard transplantation approach normalization of all cellular parameters has not been obtained. This may be due either to the inc

This paper gives a brief summary of computational methods in heat transfer equipment, i.e., CFD (computational fluid dynamics) methods for thermal problems, and turbulence modeling for single phase applications in the design, research and development of heat exchangers. Some examples for real heat exchangers are shown to demonstrate how CFD methods can be used as R & D tools. Nevertheless, lim

Political ecology, as a perspective for exploring power-permeated socio-ecological transformations, has to date rarely engaged with tourism. Neither has tourism theory, with some notable exceptions, engaged much with political ecology. In this article, I argue that the resultant lack of dialogue between these signifies a loss for political ecology and tourism theory alike, but also that current co

This contribution presents complimentary mineralogical and whole-rock chemical data for the Mullnäset rapakivi massif. Three rock types occur: gabbro, syenite with associated granite and “normal” rapakivi granite, here denoted rapakivi-textured granite. In the syenite-associated granite, extremely Mg-poor clinopyroxene and fayalite are the most important mafic minerals, whereas ferrohornblende and

Evolutionary economic geographers propose that regional diversification is a path-dependent process whereby industries grow out of pre-existing industrial structures through technologically related localised knowledge spillovers and learning. This article examines whether this also applies to emerging radical technologies that create the foundation for new industries. The article develops a new me

Advance pricing arrangement (“APA”) becomes a common tool to attract foreign investors to carry out their business in the Member States’ territory. The advantage of APA which providing legitimate expectations to the taxpayers is one of the reasons of why the companies file an APA request to the tax authorities. However, APAs are not free from issues or problems arose, especially in relation to t

The “Substitution Principle” gives the direction to substitute hazardous substances to less dangerous ones when possible. The idea of substituting substances to less dangerous alternatives is currently of concern and the “Substitution Principle” is one of the tools used to do so. This has come into focus since polluted lakes, air and/or land areas has ended up as consequences of chemical emissions

The aim of this study is to examine the determinants of capital structure via a cross-country comparison between the U.S.A. and Sweden. With the consideration of firm specific factors, the main focus is on researching country effect and macroeconomic impacts on firms’ financing policy. Including both country and macroeconomic factors in the research allows for having a new approach on the topic. T
