Fe(II) and Fe(IV)-oxo complexes of a ligand based on the pentadentate N4Py framework have been investigated for oxidation of aliphatic compounds. The ligand N-(isoquinolin-3-ylmethyl)-1,1-di(pyridin-2-yl)-N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)methanamine (N3Py-IQ) and the complex [Fe(II)(-NCMe)(-N3Py-IQ)]2+ have been successfully synthesised and characterized. The 1H NMR spectrum of the low spin d6 [Fe(II)(-NCMe)
The number of species classified as red-listed has increased by 11% between 2015 and 2020, with beetles and butterflies being especially affected. Among these are the vulnerable longhorned beetle (Stictoleptura scutellata) and the endangered false blister beetle (Ischnomera sanguinicollis). Forty percent of all known species in Sweden are dependent on hostplants, indicating the value in mapping po
The practice of product destruction, whereby retailers or manufacturers dispose of viable consumer products such as unsold goods or consumer returns, is an extreme expression of the linearity of our current production-consumption system. This qualitative exploratory study aims to uncover why companies engage in this highly unsustainable and resource-inefficient behaviour, and to explore the potent
Thesis purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to reveal what critical factors affect the attitude-behaviour gap when consuming green apparel online, and what aspects in retailers’ green communication strategies are perceived to have an influence on performing green consumer behaviour online. Theoretical perspective: An own illustration of a theoretical framework has emerged from the reviewed lite
More and more companies are adopting Circular Business Models (CBMs), which can serve to foster a sustainable transition towards a Circular Economy (CE). Nonetheless, much of the CBMs adoption-related research in academia has a focus on end-user facing companies, which have direct access to final end-users, to whom they sell a complete product. However, a significant role in such settings is playe
This thesis investigates the aspirations for the European Union’s future population composition through the European Commission’s proposal of the New Pact on Migration and Asylum. By examining six policy documents, this thesis investigates the migrant and citizen categories that are constructed and the technologies of biopower that will be employed to achieve the expressed aspirations. The researc
Minoritetsstress på grund av etnisk bakgrund är ett nytt område inom forskningsfältet minoritetsstress. Det saknas ett mätinstrument för denna typ av stress. Denna studie syftade till att utifrån Meyers (2003) koncept minoritetsstress, konstruera ett mätinstrument för mätning av etnisk minoritetstress (EMS); samt se minoritetsstressens relation till allmän stress, anknytning och coping för att undMinority stress due to ethnic background is a new area in the research field. Based on Meyer's (2003) concept of minority stress, this study aimed to construct an instrument for measuring ethnic minority stress (EMS); and study minority stress and its relation to general stress, attachment and coping to investigate whether attachment and coping can become dimensions that can be used to disting
The production and use of chemicals has grown exponentially over the past 50 years. Although the knowledge of hazards and risks associated with chemicals towards humans and the environment has increased, we know frightenedly little about how dangerous these might become when part of finished products. Companies now need to be more concerned about which chemicals exist in their products. For the co
The exposure to naturally occurring, radioactive noble gas radon is known to cause permanent damage in lung tissue. Lung diseases and prior radiation of lung tissue have been identified as contributing to a severe progression of COVID-19. As the COVID-19 pandemic also showed within Germany largely unexplained high spatial variation of mortality and infection rates, it was suggested that the incre
Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) are known as hydrocarbons emitted into the atmosphere from the biosphere. They have physiological and ecological functions such as communication within the plant and plant – plant, protection against environmental stress factors and defense against herbivores attack. Coniferous forests are known to produce larger quantities of BVOCs, especially terpenes,
The effectiveness of decision-making processes has been enhanced by integrating multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) and geographic information system (GIS) methods to solve more complex spatial problems that were not possible to solve using conventional GIS methods. A spatial decision support system (SDSS) supports various stakeholders in the decision-making process, by processing data using
I wanted to have fun in the process, play with forms, elaborate my design language and learn/see new things. In the design process, the space around the object is as important to me as the object itself. Only through the right place/ light/surrounding objects, the object works properly. It should be itself but at the same time one with its environment. I thought a lot about materiality and immate
Globally, men tend to earn more money than women. Even in relatively gender equal countries like Sweden wage differences remain. This thesis examines wage differences through the lens of sectoral gender segregation by looking at different wage trajectories, sector-specific gender wage gaps as well as the relationship between gender shares and the gender wage gap within a sector for both public and
The purpose of this thesis is to examine online sexism as a phenomenon on Danish news media platforms on Facebook. Research have shown a transgression of gendered violence online that is often produced on social media. Studies concerning Danish discourses and sexism is approached to give an understanding of the extent of online sexism. Limited research exists and the following study will provide i
Luminiscensdatering är en väletablerad dateringsmetod inom geologisk och arkeologisk forskning. Dock är användandet av luminiscensdatering, mer specifikt optiskt stimulerad luminiscens (OSL), fortfarande underrepresenterat inom norsk arkeologi. Denna studie ämnar utreda lämpligheten av denna dateringsmetod som ett användbart alternativ för utgrävningar av Stenålderslokaler på den norska kusten. DeLuminescence dating is a well-established dating method within geological and archaeological research. However, the use of luminescence dating, and more specifically optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), is currently underutilised in Norwegian archaeology. This study set about determining the suitability of this dating method as a viable option for excavations of Norwegian coastal Stone Age sit
Purpose: The purpose of this exploratory qualitative research is: First, to explore what brands understand by metaverse and how they perform branding in this new context. Second, to investigate how established constructivist approaches to branding are performed within the metaverse. And finally, to define what decentralized branding is and how it is linked to a decentralized metaverse. Additionall
För att skapa nya krypteringsalgoritmer är man alltid på jakt efter svårlösta matematiska problem. Men är alla problem lämpliga? Uppsatsen behandlar Gröbnerbaser över ändliga kroppar och visar att de är inte lämpliga för att bygga säkra krypteringsalgoritmer. Vi undersöker flera möjligheter att knäcka den på Gröbnerbaser baserade krypteringsalgoritmen Polly Cracker, analyserar Differential Attack
