Med bakgrund till den allt mer medicinska synen på mental (o)hälsa som tidigare forskning deklarerar för, är syftet med denna uppsats att sociologiskt undersöka hur ensamkommande unga vuxna män upplever bemötandet av den psykiatriska vården i Sverige. För att göra detta möjligt måste orsakerna för den mentala (o)hälsan hos de ensamkommande unga vuxna männen först utredas och analyseras. De frågest
Anthropogenic land cover change (ALCC) is the most important transformation of the Earth system that occurred in the preindustrial Holocene, with implications for carbon, water and sediment cycles, biodiversity and the provision of ecosystem services and regional and global climate. For example, anthropogenic deforestation in preindustrial Eurasia may have led to feedb
Between 15 and 27kyrb2k (thousands of years before 2000CE) during the last glacial, Greenland experienced a prolonged cold stadial phase, interrupted by two short-lived warm interstadials. Greenland ice-core calcium data show two periods, preceding the interstadials, of anomalously high atmospheric dust loading, the origin of which is not well understood. At approximately the same time as the Gree
In this paper, we present a robust multipath-based localization and mapping framework that exploits the phases of specular multipath components (MPCs) using a massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) array at the base station. Utilizing the phase information related to the propagation distances of the MPCs enables the possibility of localization with extraordinary accuracy even with limited ba
Den främsta orsaken till en ökad växthuseffekt anses idag bero på en högre koncentrationav koldioxid i atmosfären. Sedan den industriella revolutionen harmänniskan påverkat mängden koldioxid i atmosfären genom aktiviteter så somförbränning av fossila bränslen, avskogning, förändringar i markanvändning, samtcementproduktion. För att kunna motverka framtida klimatförändringar krävs enfördjupad kunskThis thesis focuses on the development and application of efficient mathematicaltools for estimating and modelling the exchange of carbon dioxide (CO2) between the Earth and its atmosphere; here referred to as the global CO2 surface flux.There are two main approaches for estimating the CO2 flux: Processed based(bottom-up) modelling and atmospheric inversion (top-down) modelling. Thefirst part of t
In this study, a sediment sequence from Lake Skottenesjön, southern Sweden was investigated to reconstruct the effect of forestry and land-use on erosion rates and delivery of organic and minerogenic matter to the lake. Catchment-scale vegetation changes during the last 1000 years were reconstructed quantitatively using pollen analysis and the Landscape Reconstruction Algorithm (LRA). Organic matt
In many machine learning tasks, the premise is designed around predetermined targets and clear expectations of model behaviour. In such cases, there is a direct definition of the optimal mappings between inputs and outputs, which can be learned given sufficiently sized datasets and models. However, in many real-world scenarios, tasks are often not as well-posed and instead defined around detecting
Shallow lakes worldwide face escalating pressures from eutrophication and climate change, yet comprehensive monitoring of Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) spatiotemporal dynamics remains challenging due to the high costs and logistical constraints of traditional sampling approaches across large, heterogeneous water bodies. Lake Balaton, a large shallow lake system (80 km long, 7 km wide, 3.7 m mean depth) in
Understanding greenhouse gas fluxes in semi-arid ecosystems is critical for improving our understanding of biogeochemical cycles, particularly in underrepresented regions like the African Sahel. In these landscapes, greenhouse gas exchange arises from ground, trees, and water ponds, and is further shaped by environmental conditions and grazing. The carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide fluxes
Northwest China's arid climate and fragile ecosystems are becoming wetter and greener. However, the rapid expansion of photovoltaic (PV) infrastructure in this region alters land-atmosphere interactions, with potential consequences for local climate and water resources. Here, we use a combined climate and dynamic vegetation modeling approach to assess the effects of hypothetical PV deployment acro
People form part of the biosphere - the biosphere being the whole intertwined network of life on Earth. While there is convergence on the need for societal change for just sustainability and a healthy biosphere, the pathways to achieve these transformations remain relatively unclear. Through legal interpretation, conceptual and thematic analysis of academic and grey literature, we seek to answer t
Agroforestry systems – combining trees with crops and/or livestock – are increasingly promoted as sustainable and climate-resilient land-use strategies. Despite their widespread presence in the Sahel, experimental data on their potential as carbon sinks are scarce. This study presents a full-year, high-frequency dataset of CO2 fluxes in a Sahelian agro-silvo-pastoral parkland dominated by Faidherb
Under sustained global warming, Arctic climate is projected to become more responsive to changes in North Pacific meridional heat transport as a result of teleconnections between low and high latitudes, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we reconstruct subarctic humidity changes over the past 400 kyr to investigate the role of low-to-high latitude interactions in regulat
I Sverige har var femte ungdom mellan 16-24 år blivit utsatt för våld i en parrelation. Denna uppsats behandlar det sexuella och fysiska våld som flickor utsätts för i parrelationer motiverat utifrån att statistiken visar att det är en grupp som särskilt drabbas av dessa våldsformer. Syftet är att bidra med kunskap eftersom den svenska forskningen inom fältet är mycket begränsad. Förhoppningen är
Företagsförvärv spelar en viktig roll för en fungerande marknadsekonomi. Vid ett förestående företagsförvärv finns det flera viktiga steg innan förvärvet är genomfört. Transaktionsprocessen brukar delas in i tre faser, nämligen stra-tegifasen, transaktionsfasen och integrationsfasen. Alla delar spelar en viktig roll för att ro ett företagsförvärv i hamn. En av de mest centrala delarna under transMergers and acquisitions play an important role in the functioning of a market economy. When an acquisition is imminent, there are several important steps before the acquisition is completed. The transaction process is usually divided into three phases: the strategy phase, the transaction phase and the integration phase. All of them play an important role in bringing an acquisition to a suc-cessfu
This paper addresses sustainability clauses in the European Union’s (EU) free trade agreements (FTAs) and examines their role in integrating environmental, social, and economic objectives within international trade. Against the backdrop of global sustainability agendas – namely Agenda 2030 and the European Green Deal – the study investigates how these contractual provisions are designed to support

I denna avhandling undersöks opinionsundersökningens introduktion i Sverige under mitten av 1900-talet. Fokus ligger på Svenska Gallupinstitutet AB, som 1941 etablerades som landets första opinionsinstitut och som introducerade den urvalsbaserade enkätundersökningen som ett nytt medium genom vilket den allmänna opinionen kunde representeras. De hade i princip monopol på området till 1950-talets miThis thesis examines the introduction and impact of opinion polling in Sweden during the mid-twentieth century, focusing on the activities of the Swedish Gallup Institute (Svenska Gallupinstitutet). Established in 1941 as the country’s first polling organization, the institute introduced sample surveys as a new means of representing public opinion and had a near-monopoly on polling until its decli
Lake water storage variations on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) serve as crucial indicators of regional hydrological dynamics and climate changes, providing more comprehensive insights than discrete measurements of lake area or water level alone. While accurate bathymetric data is fundamental for quantifying lake water storage, conventional bathymetric surveys are often constrained by logistical challen
