Multiple tipping points in the Earth system could be triggered when global warming exceeds specific thresholds. However, the degree of their impact on the East Asian hydroclimate remains uncertain due to the lack of quantitative rainfall records. Here we present an ensemble reconstruction of East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) rainfall since the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) using nine statistical and m

The paper presents results on the use of NOAA AVHRR data for desertification monitoring on a regional-global level. It is based on processing of the GIMMS 8 km global NDVI data set. Time series of annually integrated and standardized annual NDVI anomalies were generated and compared with a corresponding rainfall data set (1981-2003). The regions studied include the Mediterranean basin, the Sahel f

The long-term fates of duplicate genes are well studied both empirically and theoretically, but how the short-term evolution of duplicate genes contributes to phenotypic variation is less well known. Here, we have studied the genetic basis of flowering tithe variation in the disomic tetraploid Capsella bursa-pastoris. We sequenced four duplicate candidate genes for flowering time and 10 background

As the global environment gradually deteriorates, developing green technology innovations for enterprises has become an important goal. The ESG concept of advocating sustainable development has steadily received attention. Therefore, it is essential to understand the relationship between ESG and green technology innovations. This thesis aims to explore whether the environmental, social, and govern

This thesis examines how Sweden's security policies have changed since Russia's invasion of Ukraine and explores to what extent the invasion can explain the various changes. The study uses the combination of document analysis with both descriptive and explanatory case study to answer the two research questions. To broaden the debate the framework from Barry Buzan's book “People, States

During the Edo Period of Japanese history, many loanwords entered the Japanese language through communication with the Dutch. Now, 164 years after the last significant linguistic exchange took place between the Dutch and the Japanese, it is interesting to see what lexical influence still exists in contemporary modern Japanese and which loanwords have fallen out of use. Therefore, the aim of this b

The thesis has two purposes. First, to give a practical insight into the challenges that Swedish companies might face, and how these challenges are tackled, when implementing strategy in a local area. Second, to develop a general applicable model as a conceptual contribution to the field of international strategy implementation in local areas. This empirical-driven thesis is written in a qualitati

Bakgrund: Första fallen av COVID-19 kom i december 2019 i Kina. I mars 2020 blev COVID-19 klassat som pandemi. Pandemin satte stor press på sjukvården världen över, men framför allt på intensivvården och intensivvårdssjuksköterskorna som tog emot ett större antal patienter än normalt. Syfte: Att belysa intensivvårdssjuksköterskors upplevelser av att arbeta under COVID-19 pandemin ur ett globalt pe
