Skillnader i abborrars optik med vattenfärg Abborrar är extrema generalister och finns i sjöar med vitt skilda vattenfärger. Det gör att olika abborre populationer upplever vitt skilda ljusmiljöer. Det visar sig att abborrar anpassar sig till mörkt vatten genom att förändra de optiska egenskaperna hos sina ögonlinser. Vattenfärgen hos sjöar varierar kraftigt, från kristallklart till mörkbrunt, b

Samtidigt beskylls kommuner för att konsekvent sälja sin mark för billigt till potentiella exploatörer. Finns det en möjlighet att minimera dessa problem genom en förbättrad värderingsmetodik? Ja!

The essay's hypothesis is expressed as follows: The way in which war is legitimized in general, along with democracies' stronger need for justifying all its actions, makes it extremely difficult for democratic states to declare war on ea

“Darfur” has come to be a place invoking many different interpretations and is more politically and emotionally charged, than just a territory on the map. The past events of Darfur during the years of 2003-2007 have been understood to constitute genocide, a violent conflict, a story about the struggle of “good vs. evil”. I have employed the theory of Hayden White which asserts that through the use

Att aktieägare skriver aktieägaravtal är vanligt förekommande i svenska aktiebolag och då framförallt i mindre, privata bolag. I aktieägaravtalet kan man avtala om bland annat rösträttsbegränsningar och ägarförhållanden. Den allmänna uppfattningen i Sverige har sedan länge varit att aktieägaravtal endast är obligationsrättsliga mellan avtalsparterna, och därmed aldrig kan binda aktiebolaget. Ett a
