Can a climate-triggered export of old contaminants from the soil alter the lead (Pb) contaminant burden of subarctic lakes? To address this question, we reconstructed the pollution history of three high latitude lakes situated in a region where a recent climatic shift has occurred. Dated sediment records were used as archives of past Pb inputs to the lakes, where the difference in the (206)Pb/(207

Effective freight transportation is a central part of the modern society, creating social and economic benefits. Nevertheless, the logistics industry is facing substantial sustainability challenges, where freight transports have been identified as the main environmental hazard. Scholars have previously highlighted the centrality of the purchasing process for reducing the environmental impact of th

Fjärilen utvecklas genom en process som kallas metamorfos. Termen används också för att beskriva allmän omvandling eller förändring. En ny fas där något lämnas kvar. Jacob Kirkegaard - Metamorfos (2021) Metamorfors är ett soundtrack som använder ljudinspelningar av fjärilsvingar kombinerat med namn på utdöda fjärilsarter, viskade på latin. Ljudinspelningarna av fjärilsvingar spelades in i Lund i s

The present work was aimed at developing industrial S. cerevisiae strains with improved tolerance to two types of stressors encountered during the fermentation of lignocellulosic biomass that affect ethanol yield and productivity, namely hydrolysate-derived inhibitors and high temperature, and at understanding the response of yeast and mechanisms of adaptation to such stressors. In one part of the

This study presents the main features of the Swedish approach for resolving the banking crisis of 1991-93 by condensing them into seven policy lessons. These concern (1) the importance of political unity behind the resolution policy, (2) a government blanket guarantee of the financial obligations of the banking system, (3) swift policy action where acting early was more important than acting in e

As aquaculture expands, the volume of fish feed produced and transported must also increase. Therefore a better understanding and increased control of the factors that influence the physical quality of feed pellets is required. To achieve this goal, reliable methods measuring the physical quality of feed are needed. The Holmen pellet tester (NHP 100) could be adapted for this purpose, but the spec

Dual-fuel engines for marine propulsion are gaining in importance due to operational and environmental benefits. Here the combustion in a dual-fuel marine engine operating on diesel and natural gas, is studied using a multiple high-speed camera arrangement. By recording the natural flame emission from three different directions the flame position inside the engine cylinder can be spatially mapped

The study investigates explicit and implicit knowledge of article semantics in 26 second language learners of English. Their first languages, Russian and Belarusian, lack articles. The research question is whether explicit knowledge, operationalised as an ability to explain what principle governs the choice between the definite and the indefinite article in a multiple-choice test, is associated wi

In the past decades, the laser technology market for industrial material processing has grown by double digits. Nowadays, material processing by high power laser represents the almost irreplaceable solution for many needs. The company SEI S.p.A., based in Curno, Italy, requested a solid-state laser suitable for fast marking application. A Nd:YVO4 crystal in end-pumped configuration was chosen in o
