En kortare skönhetssömn för drottningar genom tiden Humlor, av släktet Bombus, är livsviktiga pollinerare med en årlig livscykel som påbörjas när de övervintrande drottningarna vaknar på vårkanten. Dessa humledrottningar lägger grunden för den kommande vår- och sommarsäsongen, då de på egen hand startar upp hela samhällen av hårt arbetande humlor samt föder upp nya generationens drottningar. DockBumblebees (Bombus spp.) are important wild bee pollinators in colder climates, making them one of the main pollinators in Scandinavia. In Sweden, the composition and abundance of bumblebee species has shifted dramatically since the 1940s, putting the ecological stability and productivity of crops and wild plants at risk. It has been proposed that the change in bumblebee abundance is linked to the
Klinopyroxen har förmågan att kristallisera över ett stort intervall av temperatur, tryck och kemisk sammansättning; därför är de optimala för att studera historien för ett magmatiskt system. I den här uppsatsen analyserades fyra klinopyroxenkristaller i en ankaramit med fokus på kemi och zonering. Ankaramitprovet härstammar från Tenomassivet, Teneriffa, och bildades troligtvis i ett utbrott som sClinopyroxenes have the ability to crystallize over and respond to a large range of temperatures, pressures and chemical compositions, and thus, they are ideal for studies regarding the history of magmatic systems. In this thesis, the chemistry and zoning of four clinopyroxene crystals from an ankaramite sample from the Teno massif, Tenerife, were analysed. The ankaramites in Teno massif were, acc
The purpose of this study is to conduct one-on-one qualitative interviews with Salvadorans to learn about their perspectives on how the present administration is managing gang member arrests and prisoner treatment. Throughout the study, we provided a comprehensive background on past and current events to help the reader understand the subsequent sections. In the analysis section, we examined direc
Previous research (Libby et al., 2009) has established that a third-person (outside) visual perspective elicits more abstract processing than a first-person (inside) perspective. Because many moral principles constitute abstract psychological constructs, we predicted that they should weigh more heavily when people adopt a third-person visual perspective. In two experiments we show that a third- (v
This article discusses the concept of 'access' within ethnography. Schatz's conception of access as finding the nearest possible vantage point lays the foundation for a discussion of 15 months of fieldwork conducted in Myanmar for a study of experiences of imprisonment that had little access to the inside of these institutions. The article goes beyond an understanding of access framed by a focus o
