The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) serves as the preeminent uniform legal framework governing international sales. Central to its application is Article 8, which prescribes a tripartite hierarchy for interpreting party intent by prioritizing subjective intent, applying the objective reasonable person standard, and mandating a holistic review of al
Mikroplast har varit ett stort föroreningsproblem sedan början av plastens massproduktion på 1950-talet. Mikroplast bildas dels när plastmaterial avsiktligt skapas för att vara del av skönhetsprodukter och liknande och dels oavsiktligt, när plast bryts ner till mindre partiklar på grund av solljus, vind och regn. Detta kallas för primär respektive sekundär mikro-plast. Mikroplast är ett stort probMicroplastics (MPs) are a major pollution concern since the start of the mass produc-tion of plastics in the 1950s. MPs form A) when plastics are produced intentionally to be part of beauty products and B) when plastics are broken down into smaller particles by sunlight, wind, and rain. This is called primary and secondary microplastics, respectively. MPs are a concern because they can carry toxic
Purpose - To investigate if the forensic accounting education offered by universities provides the knowledge and skills that are required by the forensic accounting profession. Methodology - First, a qualitative content analysis of curriculums, with a mix between a deductive and inductive approach, is conducted. Second, an inductive quantitative content analysis of job advertisements is administe
Som ett led i att homogenisera den kinesiska befolkningen, har den kinesiska regeringen under längre tid bedrivit en kampanj för att avskaffa Xinjiang-provinsens inhemska folkgrupp Uigurer. Massiva konverteringsläger har inrättats där Uigurerna tvingas avsäga sig sin kultur, etnicitet och religion. Situationen beskrivs av journalister och politiker som ett kulturellt folkmord, men trots begreppets
Tropiska skogar utsätts för mer intensiva och frekventa torkor. Torkor påverkar tillväxt och kollagring i skogen, samt ökar risken för trädödlighet. Det finns flera hypoteser om mekanismerna bakom dödlighet under torka. Två av de vanligaste är något som kallas kolsvält och kavitation. Det är oklart vilken av dessa två mekanismer som inträffar först i tropiska träd under långvarig torka. ExperimentTropical forests experience more intense and frequent droughts. Droughts affect mortality in trees, growth rate and carbon storage in the forest. There are several hypotheses of the mechanisms behind tree mortality during drought. Two of the most common ones are carbon starvation and hydraulic failure. It is unclear which of these mechanisms occur first in tropical trees during long term drought.
Flash droughts, as sub-seasonal phenomena, are characterized by their rapid onset and significant impact on terrestrial ecosystems. However, understanding how vegetation responds to flash droughts and the mechanisms governing vegetation recovery remains elusive. Here, we analysed the response of vegetation productivity to flash droughts and identified the most relevant drivers controlling vegetati
Strategic critical minerals are essential materials that will dominate the energy transition and technological revolution. In the context of global climate change and industrial transformation, the geopolitical phenomenon of major powers competing for critical minerals has rapidly emerged, yet relevant research remains relatively limited. Therefore, this paper aims to summarize the geopolitical re
