En tur till närmsta trädgårdsbutik. Jorden, gödslet och fröna ligger stabilt i kundvagnen. Drömmen om att odla din egen mat lever starkt. Kanske kan du till och med bli självförsörjande en dag. Närodlat, hälsosamt, rogivande; att odla sin mat själv kan ge mening till livet. Längtan efter att få ta den första tuggan. Har tanken slagit dig ännu; är den egenodlade maten säker att äta? Majoriteten av A regular consumption of food contaminated with heavy metals can pose a threat to the general health of the human population. The contents of these toxic metals in crops depend on several different factors including the acidity of the soil as well as the addition of contaminated fertilizer. In this study, health risk assessments for broad beans (Vicia faba) were made for six different growing cond

Sammanfattning Förtroendet för samhällsinstitutioner har genom historien varit avgörande för deras bestående. I utvecklade samhällen som Sverige behöver medborgarna förlita sig på att lagföringen görs korrekt. Förtroendet är i sin tur avgörande för att människor rättar sig efter domar och beslut. Tydlig kommunikation är vidare ett krav för att tilliten till domstolarna ska kunna byggas samt stärkaSummary The trust in social institutions has throughout history been crucial for their continuance. In developed societies like Sweden, the citizens have to trust that prosecutions are processed correctly. The confidence in these proceedings is vital for the compliance of decisions and judgements. Clear communication is a requirement for trust to be built and strengthened. Texts produced and publi

Stormfloder orsakar förhöjda vattennivåer och kraftiga vågor. Det kan leda till omfattande erosion och översvämning längs med den drabbade kusten, vilket kan utgöra ett verkligt hot mot kustnära samhällen. Som en del av riskbedömningen kan det vara intressant att studera överspolningssediment (washover) som deponerats under tidigare stormfloder. Men för att kunna särskilja dessa ur det sedimentäraStorm surges cause elevated water levels and strong waves. This can lead to severe erosion and flooding along the affected coast, which can pose a real threat to coastal communities. As part of the risk assessment, it may be interesting to study washover sediments deposited during previous storm surges. However, in order to distinguish these in the sedimentary archive, their characteristics must b

The intricate nature of water distribution networks and the challenge of managing seasonal water consumption variation pose a significant hurdle for water utilities striving for low energy consumption. The performance of pumps, which are the backbone of these networks, directly influences the energy required for distributing drinking water. Such conditions are modelled using MIKE+ for the water di

The rise of Iron Age central places has become a complex debate. Traditionally, central places have been described as places of power, serving multiple public functions – political, economical, and religious, to name a few – at a regional or supra-regional level. Few researchers have further nuanced or challenged the concept, and therefore, the complexities of central places have often been undere

I samband med 1960-talets ekonomiska och industriella utveckling importerade Sverige mycket arbetskraft vilket ledde till en omfattande bostadsbrist. Därför behövde det byggas många hus i hög takt vilket innebar att en hel del nya metoder och oprövade material användes. En del av dessa lösningar har visat sig vara olämpliga och tillsammans med den då bristande fuktkunskapen har dessa hus idag en hIn connection with the economic and industrial development of the 1960s, Sweden imported a lot of labor which led to a significant housing shortage. As a result, many houses were built at a rapid pace, leading to the use of a lot of new methods and untested materials. Some of these solutions have proven to be unsuitable, and coupled with the lack of moisture knowledge at the time, these houses hav
