Det är känt inom den typologiska lingvistiken att spatial rörelse uttrycks på olika sätt på olika språk. På svenska uttrycks ofta en rörelses sätt i verbroten och dess riktning i en till verbet knuten satellit (S-språk), då franskan vanligtvis däremot uttrycker rörelsens riktning i verbroten och utelämnar dess sätt (V-språk). Svensktalande föredrar i en given situation ett uttryck som en uggla komIt is well known within typological linguistics that the expression of motion is language-specific. In Swedish the manner of a motion is typically expressed in a verb while the path of motion is expressed in a satellite connected to the verb (S- languages), whereas, in French, typically the path of motion is expressed in the verb and the manner is omitted. This explains why speakers of Swedish see

Uncertainties in determination of the Earth’s albedo currently limit our understanding of climate and climate change. A new telescope has been designed and built in collaboration between Danish Meteorological Institute and Lund Observatory to study the ratio between the intensities of earthshine to moonlight. This ratio is proportional to the terrestrial albedo. The aim of the Earthshine Telescope

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Jordens klimat står under ständiga variationer och förändringar, och det är inte alltid lätt att sära på orsak och verkan bland den mängd av faktorer som styr klimatet. För att kunna reda ut ursprunget till de förändringar som sker, måste de bakomliggande processerna vara väl kända. Sedan är det möjligt att genom matematiska modeller uppskatta de individuella prSeveral studies have analysed the relationship between Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and radiative surface temperature. A main goal for most studies have been to find the best method for carrying out land cover classifications and to study land cover changes, based on a combination between the two parameters. Since atmospheric components have a significant influence on both paramet
