The number of remote teams has increased in recent years and this upward trend may persist. The growth is partly enabled by advancements in Information and Communication Technolo-gy (ICT) and globalization. Although organizations benefit from certain advantages that re-mote teams introduce, inadequate communication amongst remote team members can lead to project failures. Since technology has an i

Som en del av EU:s gröna omställning har det vid årsskiftet till 2023 införts inledande krav i en energitaxonomi på företag som tillhandahåller finansiella tjänster, däribland fastighetsföretag. Företagens investeringar ska nu klassas som hållbara eller icke hållbara. Ytterligare en del i EU:s gröna omställning är att unionens befintliga bestånd får nya energieffektiviseringskrav. Som en lösning pAs a part of the Green Deal within the EU, as of the start of 2023, new demands have been put in place in an energy taxonomy on companies providing financial services, a category in which real estate companies are included. The investments of these companies are now to be classified as sustainable or not sustainable. Another part of the shift towards sustainability within the EU is that the existi

Den ökade användningen av läkemedel och otillräcklig teknik i reningsverken har lett till allt större halter av läkemedel och andra organiska mikroföroreningar (OMF) i naturliga vatten. Detta har i sin tur konstaterats påverka exempelvis fiskars beteende och fortplantningsförmåga. OMF har även detekterats i det svenska dricksvattnet. På grund av detta har en satsning skett de senaste åren inom forThe increased use of pharmaceuticals in combination with inadequate techniques and procedures in the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have resulted in higher concentrations of pharmaceuticals and other organic micro pollutants (OMPs) in the aquatic environment. It has been established that these pollutants have caused changes in the behaviour and reproduction of fishes. Furthermore, these OMPs

The concept of the “Security-Development Nexus” illustrates a friction between two wellestablished norms that constitutes the EU's normative identity in external relations. A normative conflict where EU's vision of forming a strategic and collective international security policy has threatened its commitment to international development policy and its agenda to combat global poverty. EU&

This Master’s thesis investigates how public administrations in Sweden have developed e-archives and how these have been tailored according to the needs of use. The study takes off from within the context of what is called e-Government, which means that public administrations increase their use of IT in order to facilitate their operation and interaction with citizens. This development has been ch

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Denna studie omfattar undersökningar av skogsskador, vattenflöden och höjdmodeller i Krkonose Nationalpark i norra Tjeckien. Nationalparken är belägen i ett område kallat Europas Svarta Triangel. Detta namn kommer av de kraftiga svaveldioxidutsläppen från stora kolkraftverk i Tyskland, Polen och Tjeckien under de senaste decennierna. Utsläppen har resulterat i eIn the 1970's, a widespread deterioration in forest health in Europe was observed, first for the European fir and, subsequently, also for many other tree species. Now a large portion of the forests in Europe is affected by forest decline to varying degrees. The first aim of the study is to investigate if forest damage and forest die-back have lead to a change in waterflow. The study area is t

I dagens samhälle kämpar företag för att höras och synas i det överflöd av information som finns tillgänglig. Ett särskiljande kännetecken har därmed blivit ett mycket viktigt kommunikationsmedel för företag. I detta kännetecken ligger ofta ett betydande värde i form av goodwill och image och attityd hos förbrukarna. Inte sällan är det hela koncept som förmedlas i ett komplicerat byggande av relat

“1000 Extra” is a project that takes off in the sub optimal conditions that city planning in the 20-th century has left behind for the future. First and foremost looking at the conditions of residential areas planned based on doctrines stemming in modernism, the project proposes desnsifying the not-so-dense areas in Lund, consisting of row houses and other residential buildings in the same categor

Objectives: Bacteremia is an acute severe infection with high mortality. Changes in healthcare services and coinfections with SARS-CoV-2 may have affected the mortality for bacteremia during the COVID-19 pandemic, which has been reported for other major diseases. In this study we examine the all-cause bacteremia mortality amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A population-based cohort study compr

The main concerns associated with epilepsy during pregnancy consist of maternal and fetal risks from uncontrolled seizures, and harmful effects of the treatment on the development of the offspring. Although seizure control is maintained in the majority, worsening occurs in a fraction of childbearing women with epilepsy. As multiple factors associated with pregnancy may have a negative impact on ep

Despite diagnostic algorithms, identification of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in emergency departments (ED) remains a challenge. We evaluated symptoms, background, and laboratory data in 27,647 ED patients presenting with pain, swelling, or other symptoms from the extremities, and identified predictors of VTE diagnosis within one year. Predictors of a clinical decision to perform phlebography, ult

OBJECTIVES: Analysis of the long-term risks of ischaemic stroke and cerebral bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation after mitral valve surgery and concomitant Cox-maze IV procedure. METHODS: In total, 397 patients with symptomatic degenerative mitral valve insuffciency and atrial fibrillation, underwent mitral valve surgery and Cox-maze IV in Sweden between 2009 and 2017. In this retrospect

Within the European Human Biomonitoring (HBM) Initiative HBM4EU we derived HBM indicators that were designed to help answering key policy questions and support chemical policies. The result indicators convey information on chemicals exposure of different age groups, sexes, geographical regions and time points by comparing median exposure values. If differences are observed for one group or the oth
