Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) is used to acquire three-dimensional (3D) city model data over large areas. However, because of the long ALS update cycle, building information models (BIM) could be utilized to maintain city models. In this study, we designed, implemented, and evaluated a methodology to formalize the integration of BIM data into city models. CityGML models were created from BIM data
The transition to a fossil-free society in Sweden is expected to cause an increased demand for forest-derived products which may intensify existing conflicts between forest ecosystem services. This study investigated the preferences among non-industrial private forest owners for maintaining multiple forest ecosystem services and their preferences for future forest development. The findings were re
Background: An increased knowledge of predictors that might affect survival in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients treated with cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) is important for clinicians and for the health services. Impairment in activities of daily living (ADL), somatic diseases, and psychiatric symptoms may influence mortality in AD. We aimed to study the impact of functional capacity and conco
This paper discusses a presumed medieval tower in Blekinge. The tower is situated close to a harbour in an inlet of the Baltic just east of modern day Ronnebyhamn. Archaeological investigations in 2021 and 2023 have however firmly dated the tower to the 17th century, making it the first Scandinavian example of a tower-house from the Early Modern era. The tower originally had at least three floor-l
1911 beslöt stadsfullmäktige i Malmö enhälligt och utan debatt att införa en kommunal bostadsinspektion. I denna artikel undersöks bostadsinspektionens härkomst genom att följa olika problematiseringar som inspektion sades lösa hos stadens förvaltningar, den lokala arbetarrörelsen och Fredrika-Bremerförbunds-kretsen i Malmö. Undersökningen visar att urbana aktörer som delvIn 1911 the Swedish city of Malmö got its first housing inspection service. It was put forward in a motion by two social-democratic city councillors and supported by conservative councillors as well as by the women’s movement. The vote in the city council passed unanimously and without discussion. This article focuses on how the question of housing was articulated in a way that meant inspections w
Over recent years many urban areas have experienced severe floods caused by extreme precipitation events. To avoid the devastating socioeconomic and environmental consequences of such floods, countries have issued laws or recommendations on flood risk assessment in urban planning. However, these laws or recommendations seldom include detailed requirements on input data quality or explicit instruct
Given the important role of the land surface for climate, this study aims at (1) to evaluate the quality of the simulation of surface climate by the land-surface component of the EC-Earth3 ESM and (2) to assess the role of the coupling of the land surface with the atmosphere for the simulation of the surface climate in EC-Earth3. It is based on three simulations with different configurations of th
Data and code are essential for ensuring the credibility of scientific results and facilitating reproducibility, areas in which journal sharing policies play a crucial role. However, in ecology and evolution, we still do not know how widespread data- and code-sharing policies are, how accessible they are, and whether journals support data and code peer review. Here, we first assessed the clarity,
Three-dimensional city models are increasingly being used for analyses and simulations. To enable such applications, it is necessary to standardise semantically richer city models and, in some cases, to connect the models with external data sources. In this study, we describe the development of a new Swedish specification for 3D city models, denoted as 3CIM, which is a joint effort between the thr
Aims/hypothesis We aimed to investigate the risk of cancer mortality in relation to the glucose tolerance status classified according to the 2 h OGTT. Methods Data from 17 European population-based or occupational cohorts involved in the DECODE study comprising 26,460 men and 18,195 women aged 25-90 years were collaboratively analysed. The cohorts were recruited between 1966 and 2004 and followed
The thermal decomposition of BaC2O4 center dot 3.5H(2)O and BaC2O4 center dot 0.5H(2)O was investigated using in situ synchrotron X-ray and neutron powder diffraction. The decomposition routes for the barium oxalate hydrates were observed to depend on the applied heating rate. Thermal decomposition of BaC2O4 center dot 0.5H(2)O showed transformation to alpha-BaC2O4 and to beta-BaC2O4 prior to the
The X chromosome (chrX) represents one potential source for the "missing heritability" for complex phenotypes, which thus far has remained underanalyzed in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Here we demonstrate the benefits of including chrX in GWAS by assessing the contribution of 404,862 chrX SNPs to levels of twelve commonly studied cardiometabolic and anthropometric traits in 19,697 Finni
Popular Abstract in Swedish Målet med kollektivtrafik är bl a att anordna transportförsörjning för alla samhällsgrupper på ett samhällsekonomiskt effektivt vis. En grupp medborgare är rullstolsburna resenärer, vars speciella förutsättningar ställer särskilda krav på transportsystemets utformning. För att utröna dessa speciella förutsättningar på ett ansvarsfullt sätt, är det viktigt att man anläggEliciting wheelchair-seated passengers’ perspective of safety and comfort is both useful and mandatory, particularly for researchers, clinicians, transit authorities, and for operators during purchase and use of vehicle technologies in existing and planned future transport systems. Therefore, the overarching objective of this thesis was to delineate the question of safety and comfort as perceived
Real-time PCR is fast, sensitive, specific, and can deliver quantitative data; however, two disadvantages are that this technology is sensitive to inhibition by food and that it does not distinguish between DNA originating from viable, viable nonculturable (VNC), and dead cells. For this reason, real-time PCR has been combined with a novel discontinuous buoyant density gradient method, called flot
OBJECTIVE - To study the effect of the short-acting insulin secretagogue nateglinide in patients with maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 3 (MODY3), which is characterized by a defective insulin response to glucose and hypersensitivity to sulfonylureas. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - We compared the acute effect of nateglinide, glibenclamide, and placebo on prandial plasma glucose and serum i
Although the negative effects of ultraviolet-B ( UV-B) radiation on the development of many amphibian species have been demonstrated, some speciessuch as the common frog ( Rana temporaria)seem to be tolerant of UV-B radiation. The amount of UV-B radiation received is likely to vary among populations of the same species, but little is known about geographic variation in UV-B tolerance. Similarly, a
AIM: To assess the prevalence of borderline isolated systolic hypertension (borderline ISH), and to examine its association with other cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS: A cross-sectional community-based study was carried out in 1993-1994 in Skara, Sweden, including 1109 randomly chosen subjects > or = 40 years old. Normotension (NT) was defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 140 and diasto
