Vattenkraft är den dominerande källan till elektricitet i Sverige, med ett bidrag på 45% av den nationella produktionen. Samtidigt som vattenkraften är avgörande för utfasningen av fossila bränslen och för klimatmålen, är dess miljöpåverkan på den biologiska mångfalden i sötvatten oroande. I denna fallstudie av ett vattenkraftverk i Helge å, var syftet att hitta ett lämpligt flöde för reproduktionHydropower is the dominant source of electricity in Sweden, constituting 45% of the national supply. While pivotal for decarbonization and climate goals, its environmental impact on freshwater biodiversity is concerning. In this case study of a hydropower plant in Helge River, Sweden, the aim was to find a flow suitable for trout (Salmo trutta) and salmon (Salmo salar) reproduction. A terrain mode

Syftet med denna explorativa studie var att undersöka och analysera anmälares (patienter och anhöriga) upplevelser av kränkningar inom den The role of autonomy in healthcare is unclear, and neither patients nor healthcare providers have a clear understanding of the concept. This results inpatients' rights being violated regularly, which hinders recovery and risks further harming patients.
