The purpose of this study is to investigate if the Renewable Identification Numbers (RIN) markets have operated efficiently, a controversial and unexplored area in prior research. This is done through an event study of the retroactive introductions of the Blenders Tax Credit (BTC) and its effect on the RIN Credit Market, related commodity markets and relevant firm stocks. The study applies a samp
In recent years, the electrification of buses in public transport systems has increased in both scale and pace. Today, there are several examples of how this transition has been handled in public transport, with partly or fully electrified bus fleets in regular operations in many cities.The research project e(+)bus has focused on how the transition to electric buses has been handled in six Swedish
The transfer-appropriate processing (TAP) account holds that episodic memory depends on the overlap between encoding and retrieval processing (e.g., perceptual or conceptual). In the current study, we employed multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) of electroencephalography to examine the relevance of spontaneously engaged processing during encoding for later retrieval. Participants encoded word-pic

In the current study, we employed multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) of electroencephalography to examine the relevance of spontaneously engaged visual processing during encoding for later retrieval.

The material used in packages for the food and dairy industries comprise multiple laminate layers, each serving different purposes in preserving and protecting the package content and by providing the appropriate packagerigidity during handling. Already during package manufacturing and filling, the package material is subject to large deformations and a range of thermal and chemical processes that
Dalby Söderskog är belägen tio kilometer öster om Lund och har varit nationalpark sedan 1918. Växtligheten består av ädellövträd samt en rik vårflora av bland annat vitoch gulsippor och skånsk nunneört. Sommaren 1921 utfördes en taxering av skogen och en karta upprättades (figur 1). Kartan visar Söderskogens utbredning samt varje träd i densamma. Arbetet grundar sig på just denna karta men tar äveThe national park Dalby Söderskog is situated ten kilometres east of Lund and has been a national park since 1918. The vegetation consists of a deciduous forest of Oak, Beech, Elm, Ash and Alden. The forest is also famous thanks to its rich spring flora of among others Anemóne nemorósa, Anemóne ranunculoídes and Corýdalis bulbosa. In the summer of 1921 a map was drawn that shows the distribution o
α-Synuclein (αSyn) is a neuronal protein predominantly found at the synapse, involved in vesicle trafficking. αSynaggregates are also the main component of Lewy bodies, the hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease. Interactions between the N- and Cterminiof αSyn play crucial roles in its behavior in solution, membrane binding, and aggregation.

In secondary-school English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) classrooms worldwide, English tends to be used alongside the society or community majority language (Brevik & Rindal 2020; Tsagari & Diakou 2015; Üstünel 2016), and research reveals greater participation and positive attitudes among students when translanguaging is permitted (Ebe 2016; Kleyn 2016; Saxena 2009; Ollerhead 2019; Seltzer
This article presents the research project “Searching for a New National Identity: The Construction of Swedish Cultural Memory in Carl Snoilsky’s Poems Svenska bilder”, and functions as an introduction to the four subsequent articles in this issue of Studia Litteraria, which are the result of the project. The principal aim of the project was a comprehensive analysis of the construction of cultural
Fan engagement on social media platforms presents significant challenges for digital preservation due to their dynamic and evolving character, spurred by the platforms’ data-generative and algorithmic features, as well as commercial logic. These characteristics pose problems when capturing information about the context of fan engagement. Context sheds light on the environment, setting or circumsta
For nearly three decades, spatial games have produced a wealth of insights to the study of behavior and its relation to population structure. However, as different rules and factors are added or altered, the dynamics of spatial models often become increasingly complicated to interpret. To tackle this problem,we introduce persistent homology as a rigorous framework that can be used to both define a
In Krisis, and in many of the preparatory papers for his last published work, Edmund Husserl repeatedly declares his allegiance to the Enlightenment, but, at the same time, always expresses his misgivings about its concrete purport. Like Horkheimer and Adorno, but for somewhat different reasons, he thus succumbs to what Ferrone has termed the philosopher’s conception of the Enlightenment, as oppos
In this paper we study structure from motion problems for parallel cylinders. Using sparse keypoint correspondences is an efficient (and standard) way to solve the structure from motion problem. However, point features are sometimes unavailable and they can be unstable over time and viewing conditions. Instead, we propose a framework based on silhouettes of quadric surfaces, with special emphasis
Small ponds constructed for nutrient retention, biodiversity conservation or recreation also store large amounts of carbon. The potential role of small ponds for carbon storage and greenhouse gas emissions have been highlighted both in the scientific literature and in management plans. The role of small ponds in the global carbon budget is likely significant, but the potential has not been fully e
How to make robots safe for humans is intensely debated, within academia as well as in industry, media and on the political arena. Hardly any discussion of the subject fails to mention Isaac Asimov’s three laws of Robotics. Asimov’s laws and the Trolley Problem are usually discussed separately but there is a connection in that the Trolley Problem poses a seemingly unsolvable problem for Asimov’s F
BackgroundCognitive function is often impaired for cardiac arrest (CA) survivors as an effect of hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. An important factor in CA recovery is global functional outcome, commonly assessed with the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Little is known about the role of cognition as a potential predictor of outcome following CA.ObjectiveTo investigate cognitive function at hospital dis
