Portable optically stimulated luminescence (pOSL) analysis allows rapid relative dating of sediments that potentially can be calibrated against known OSL ages to provide an age estimate for landforms across a large area. This study uses 186 pOSL measurements and 20 OSL ages to investigate the postglacial landscape evolution inside the Younger Dryas moraines in NE Finnmark and Finnish Lapland. Aeol
This study examines how public transport passengers experience and use travel time and under what conditions they are particularly concerned about shorter travel time. Using a survey of Swedish public transport users and a follow-up focus group, we compare current patterns with a similar 2009 study. Findings indicate a slight decline in perceived value of travel time, coinciding with a marked redu
This paper reports on the educational model undertaken in two specialized summer schools in Denmark (2022) and Poland (2023) on daylighting in buildings. As a part of a European educational initiative, these schools aimed to deepen participants' understanding of the impact of daylight on building design. The programme, a collaborative effort between universities, companies, associations, professio
The circular economy constitutes a paradigm shift which has proven to be both engaging and unrealistic. While scholars and practitioners have started to advocate for a move toward the circular economy, promising a full reconfiguration of underlying practices and processes, many have become disillusioned about the lack of traction and progress. The circular economy transition has fallen between uto
This study examined Poles’ acculturation preferences profiles toward two groups: people from Ukraine and the Middle East, and their relation to perceived cultural distance. The study framework emphasizes the juxtaposition of media and political narratives surrounding migrants arriving in Poland. Representative data from 924 participants was analysed. Regarding the preference toward individuals fro
Glioblastoma (GBM), the most aggressive brain tumor in adults, is characterized by its infiltrative growth along the perivascular space. Mural cells (MCs), encompassing pericytes and smooth muscle cells, are multifunctional perivascular cells implicated in GBM progression. MCs not only facilitate vascular co-option but have also been suggested to contribute to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvi
In light of the escalating global polycrisis—a convergence of environmental, social, and mental health crises—this paper explores the potential of mindfulness-based approaches for fostering human and planetary wellbeing and sustainability. We specifically investigate the linkages between Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and sustainability, and how they can be strengthened to support trans
Education for sustainability is widely recognised as a critical pathway for driving the transformations needed to address today’s polycrisis. Despite growing theoretical and conceptual advancements in sustainability education, current approaches have not achieved the deep systemic changes required. While university networks and individual institutions increasingly integrate sustainability into the
This study focuses on understanding how archaeologists interact with and reuse 3D data during excavation, drawing on an ad-hoc experiment and a Discourse Analysis approach from socio-linguistic disciplines. The experiment, conducted during the excavation of an Iron Age central place in Sweden, reveals the multifaceted utility of 3D models in archaeological discussions. Our analysis shows that thes
Denna studie undersökte ungdomars erfarenheter av viktmobbning i en svensk skolkontext, samt hur ungdomar upplever skolans strategier för att hantera viktmobbning och vilka insatser de önskar att skolan hade vidtagit. Eftersom tidigare forskning som fokuserar på själva upplevelsen av viktmobbning är begränsad, gjordes en explorativ kvalitativ studie där en kritisk realistisk position intogs för atThe aim of this study was to investigate adolescents’ experiences of weight- related bullying in a Swedish school context, how they experience the schools’ strategies for weight-related bullying and which actions they wished the schools had taken. Since previous research on the subject is limited, an explorative qualitative study was conducted in which a critical realist position was adopted. The
Nepal has made major progress in expanding its national electricity grid, creating the potential for a double transition as increased access to electricity benefits the energy-poor while setting the infrastructural ground for a transition to renewable energy sources. However, despite increased access, many households in Nepalcontinue to rely on traditional and transition fuels such as firewood and
Objectives: Patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) presenting with cerebral malperfusion have significantly poorer postoperative outcomes, making the decision whether to perform acute surgery difficult. The aim of this study was to investigate types of neurological symptoms and radiological findings and their association with permanent neurological injury and mortality following ATAA
Background: Obstetrical anal sphincter injuries are complications of vaginal birth that have the potential to cause substantial maternal morbidity. Predicting these injuries might help to improve maternal care as well as antenatal counseling and patient education. Previous attempts to create prediction models have in many cases involved variables only known postpartum, which limits their use in an
