If as Hersch Lauterpact stated in the most overly quoted Humanitarian Lawyers phrase in Oppenheim's International Law, International Humanitarian Law lies at the vanishing point of International Law, then I would posit that it is only the continuance of education particularly education in LOAC that prevents it from vanishing altogether. The preservation of the buildings housing that education
Climate change is a real challenge with global impacts in scope. The negative impacts of climate change are being experienced globally through raising temperatures, rising sea levels, melting ice and glaciers, extended drought and floods, soil erosion among others. The most vulnerable and affected by climate change are the developing countries that lack adaptive capacity to the impacts of climate
Liksom en trädstam uppvisar årsringar som kan användas för att beräkna dess ålder, bildas också tillväxtringar i tänderna hos många djur, även hos dem som regelbundet byter tanduppsättning. Detta fenomen noterades av paleontologen Richard Owen redan i mitten av 1800-talet, men det är först de senaste decennierna som forskningen inom tandersättningscykler hos utdöda djur har tagit fart. Så kalladeThe dentine of teeth from five genera of mosasaurs [i.e., Clidastes, Halisaurus, Dollosaurus (Prognathodon),cf. Platecarpus, and Tylosaurus] and a Mesozoic crocodylian (Aigialosuchus) from the Campanian of the Kristianstad Basin, southernmost Sweden, displays two types of incremental growth lines; i.e., von Ebner’s and, for the first time in extinct animals, Andresen’s lines. These lines are homol
The so-called capitalist crisis of care has been theorized starting since the 80s. It has been and explored by two literature streams: the ‘feminist’ and the ‘mainstream’. New social and economic challenges in relation to welfare state systems trigger the interest of scholars and policy makers who are looking for sustainable responses to care needs. Welfare states have been repeatedly grouped into
Insects have been recommended by the FAO as a sustainable food alternative to meat. Despite their nutritional quality and sustainability, most Western countries still see insects as belonging far away from the dinner table. Although still a niche market, Denmark has been at the forefront of innovation and adoption of edible insects. I used integral theory to map out the structural, cultural and pe
Here a lung-on-a-chip device was developed and fabricated using 3D-printing of molds. The lung-on-a-chip device was used as a lung injury model by overstretching of murine lung epithelial cells (MLE-12) monolayers, resembling the injury during mechanical ventilation. The cells were exposed to 25% strain, representing pathological conditions seen in ventilator induced lung injury of patients with
Pupils tend to experience ‘attentional fatigue’ after persistently demanding their attentional system during school hours, resulting in decreased psychological well-being and a lack of attention, along with losses of other cognitive functions. Previous research found natural elements in a school environment to restore pupils’ depleted attentional system. The present study aimed at investigating na
Offentligrättsliga sanktioner av EU:s konkurrensrätt är ett välutvecklat område. Detsamma gäller dock inte för civilrättsliga sanktioner. Kommissionen har antagit en Grönbok, som beskriver flera problem som behöver lösas för att uppnå att privata sanktioner i framtiden fungerar som ett naturligt komplement till de offentligrättsliga. Skadeståndsanspråk framförs i nationell domstol i en medlemsstat
Syfte:Genom analysen av våra fallstudier, bidra till en ökad förståelse av fenomenet Social Entreprenörskap. Metod: Studien omfattar en kvalitativ forskningsmetod med en abduktivt ansats och är en multiple fallstudie på två multinationella företag; Tetra Pak och Danone Group. Teoretiska perspektiv: Under studien har vi använt oss av teorier om Socialt entreprenörskap, andra begrepp och teorier som
Phenological vegetation characteristics are valuable inputs to several ecosystem-related models: including carbon exchange and climate change. Phenological characteristics are effective measures of changes in vegetation in an area and are subject to the seasonal and inter-annual climatic variations. In arid and semi-arid ecosystems, precipitation is the main driving factor for changes in vegetatio
Long time series of satellite remotely sensed Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) as an indicator of vegetation greenness can be used in a broad range of research topics such as climate change, vegetation dynamics and desertification monitoring. The first phase of this study tests a practical method using Hyperion imagery onboard on Earth Observing-1 (EO1) spacecraft for simulation of MO
Children with bone marrow failure syndromes and severe aplastic anemia (SAA) are treated with allogeneic blood or marrow transplantation (BMT). However, there is a paucity of studies examining late mortality risk after allogeneic BMT performed in childhood for bone marrow failure syndromes and SAA and evaluating how this risk differs between these diseases. We investigated cause-specific late mort
Industrial Symbiosis (IS) is a collective approach to competitive advantage in which separate industries create a cooperative network to exchange materials, energy, water and/or by-products. By addressing issues related to resource depletion, waste management and pollution, IS plays an important role in the transition towards sustainable development. In the literature, two conceptual perspectives
This work investigates the stability of emulsions prepared by using octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA)-modified waxy maize starch in the form of granules, dissolved starch, and non-solvent precipitated starch as Pickering emulsion stabilisers. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different forms of starches on the stability of emulsion using light microscopy, light scattering, and
Background: There exist few recovery and occupation-based interventions for mental health service users. Balancing Everyday Life (BEL) is a new occupation-based lifestyle intervention that was created to fill this need. Aim: To gain group leaders’ and participants’ perspectives of the BEL intervention content and format, including factors that helped, hindered, and could be improved. Methods: A co
