I takt med att antalet geoparker och tillgängliga geologiska besöksmål ökar föds ett behov av att förstå hur dessa kan användas för att öka den geologiska kunskapen i samhället. Ett av syftena med geoparker är att främja utbildning om hållbar utveckling och bevarande av både geologiska arv och Jorden. De senaste åren har tre svenska geoparker certifierats nationellt eller internationellt och ytterAs the number of geoparks and available geological tourist destinations increases there is also a need to understand how these can be used to increase geological knowledge in society. One of the purposes of geoparks is to promote education about sustainable use and protection of both geological heritages and Earth itself. In recent years in Sweden, three geoparks have been nationally or internatio

Urban development and densification cause noise problems that can have a negative impact on human health. In 2002, the European Union (EU) stated the European Noise Directive (END) with the purpose to evaluate environmental noise levels (including the sources road, railway, and air traffic) in the member states every 5 years. To make the result of the evaluations comparable between countries, the

There is significant evidence to suggest that diets that include high levels of meat consumption have negative effects on both the environment and human health. As a result, efforts are being made to identify and characterize more plant-based proteins, such as those found in rapeseed. Rapeseed is the second-largest oilseed crop worldwide and is primarily used to produce edible oils through mechani

Study purpose: The maritime shipping industry, particularly the commercial sector, is a significant contributor to carbon emissions and environmental pollution. Various solutions are being proposed to enhance the sector's sustainability, including the adoption of wind propulsion technologies. However, the economic feasibility of these technologies on a large scale remains uncertain. Despite th

PV system components that are exposed to unmanageable strain can be overheated, which subsequently results in a fire ignition. Common failure factors are poor component quality, mechanical exposure due to natural phenomena and poor craftmanship. The underlying problem is that PV regulations are lacking in quality or are non-existent. The rapid expansion of roof mounted PV system installation on co

In the light of a legal dogmatic method, the purpose is to examine if any problems arise when a detailed development plan does not contain building regulations. Since detailed development plans are valid until they are changed or repealed, there are many e

Finding a solution to automatically identify tree crowns in has been a well discussed topic in the academic community. Different ideas have been put to practice, with researches mainly targeting coniferous forests. In a global context, papers concerning deciduous trees are rare and their results differ in relation to their respective study zone. Segmentation-based methodologies are a newcomer in t

”The prisoners taken here were better clothed than any we had seen before. All provided with overcoats and jackets or [sic] a much better material than our own. They were of English manufacture, much darker than the United States uniform, and this furnished conclusive evidence of successful blockade running”. These words were noted on Confederates from Hay´s Louisiana brigade by their Union captor

Popular Abstract in Swedish Osteoporos (benskörhet) innebär att såväl bentätheten som skelettets hållfasthet minskar, vilket leder till ökad risk att få frakturer (benbrott). Osteoporos är en folksjukdom, där frakturerna medför stora kostnader såväl för individen som för samhället. De frakturer som räknas som osteoporosfrakturer är i första hand de som drabbar höft, bäcken, axel, handled och kota.Hip fracture is the most severe clinical manifestation of bone fragility. Hip fracture predominantly affects an already frail population and is associated with multi-cause morbidity and high mortality. Improved knowledge of long-term outcome is essential in order to improve future care and prevention of both fracture and its complications. In this thesis, all hip fracture patients during 1984-198

Objective. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture involves an increased risk of osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to explore changes in cartilage thickness over 5 years after ACL rupture. Methods. A total of 121 young active adults (ages 18-35 years; 26% women) from the Knee ACL, Nonsurgical versus Surgical Treatment (KANON) study, who had acute traumatic rupture of the ACL were stud

A genome-wide association study (GWAS) performed on a high-incidence Italian population followed by replications on low-incidence cohorts suggested a strong association of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at 9q22.33, 2q35, 20q11.22-q12 and 14q24.3. Moreover, six additional susceptibility loci were associated with the disease only among Italians. The p
