[1] Vigorous debate still surrounds the cloud electrification process and unexplained regional variations in lightning activity. Here, we show that climatological maxima in lightning activity are associated with small effective diameter D-e of ice crystals near cumulonimbus cloud tops. This relationship, unlike lightning's more well-known relationship with cloud top height, is consistent over land
Emittenters skyldighet att offentliggöra insiderinformation enligt marknadsmissbruksförordningen (MAR) är betydelsefull för att upprätthålla en transparent och effektiv värdepappersmarknad med allmänhetens förtroende. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka de bedömningar emittenten ställs inför till följd av MAR när information som potentiellt utgör insiderinformation uppstår inför offentliggöIssuers’ duty to disclose inside information according to the market abuse regulation (MAR) is important in order to maintain a transparent and efficient market with the confidence of the public. The purpose of this essay was to examine the assessments faced by the issuer as a result of MAR when information that could constitute inside information arises prior to the disclosure of an interim repor
In this master's thesis the ability to estimate the respiratory frequency from heart rate variability measurement is analyzed. The goal was to implement a solution that is easily transferable to real time. Starting from the initial processing of data, continuing with two different spectrogram implementations, a single spectrogram and a multitaper spectrogram, combined with three different meth
European environmental policy has in the recent years become more and more prominent, and with the European Commission launching the European green deal, environmental policy has become a part of the centre stage of European policy. When looking to decarbonise the economy natural gas becomes a favourable solution. However, natural gas is not without a problem i.e., natural gas is still a fossil f
Much research has been published which attests to desire felt by educators to improve the quality of student reflection, and engagement with learning, through processes of assessment. This paper describes how research in Systems Analysis is being transformed and applied to educational practice. Staff considered that methods were needed to stimulate students to reflect and engage in higher orders o
Light is both the energy source and the dominant signalling input for photosynthetic organisms. Accordingly, up to 30–50% of the genes expressed in plant leaves are directly or indirectly regulated by light, and virtually all aspects of plant metabolism support photosynthesis, depend upon the products of photosynthesis or are affected by photosynthesis-related changes in metabolite levels. Though
When China opened it borders in 1979, the country suffered from a severe brain drain as its most talented students left the country to take advantage of educational opportunities abroad. However these emigrant engineers, known locally as "sea turtles" or Chinese returnees, have become a valuable asset for Zhongguancun Science Park. The authorities for the high-tech park are now adopting
The European integration is one of the spectacular historical events. The result that has been obtained would be virtually impossible for any other regional organization to achieve. However, the continuation of this accomplishment depends upon some premises. Throughout this study, the crucial dynamics of the last two decades, which have rekindled the integration endeavor, are questioned from the n
The Naqshbandi-Haqqani Sufi order has spread throughout the world extensively since it was founded in 1973 by its Sheikh Muhammad Nazim Adil al-Haqqani. The present thesis analyses one local branch of that order in Eastern London within a theoretical framework of New Social Movements, as formulated by the Italian sociologist Alberto Melucci. A general picture of Muslim presence in Britain is given
My thesis consists of three main parts. The first part, Chapter 2, describes the legal framework regulating free movement of goods, with the focus on quantitative restrictions in the EC. The starting point of this chapter is the current approach to harmonization in completing the internal market. This section considers the limits of economic integration prior to 1986 and the important steps taken
Purpose: Within the construction business pricing is traditionally done at current account. The purpose of this report is to investigate why pricing levels are low within the construction consultant industry in comparison to other consultant industries, as well as to examine what affects the choice of pricing models. In addition to this the report aims to analyze pricing models used today and to d
Automatiska förlängningar av avtal innebär att en ny bindningstid inträder om konsumenten inte senast vid viss tidpunkt säger upp avtalet. Att konsumentens passivitet är den omständighet som gör att den nya avtalstiden inträder, har bland annat gjort att sådana förlängningar jämförts med negativ avtalsbindning, vilket svensk rättsordning inte accepterar. Situationen är emellertid annorlunda när paAutomatic extension of contracts means that time-limited contracts are automatically extended unless the consumer terminates the contract a certain amount of time before it is to expire. The fact that the consumer’s inactivity is the reason why the contract is being extended has even led to a comparison between such automatic extensions and an illegal form of contracting called negative contract b
Denna studie behandlar barnpornografibrottets placering i Brottsbalken (BrB). Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda barnpornografibrottets placering i BrB och dess bakomliggande skäl. Placeringen av barnpornografibrottet granskas ur ett allmänkritiskt perspektiv, men även med ett barnperspektiv. Framställningen beskriver gällande rätt och brottets placering i ljuset av brottets skyddsintressen. Studien bThis thesis discusses the crime of child pornography and its placement in Swedish criminal law, “Brottsbalken” (BrB). The purpose of the thesis is to examine the placement of the crime in BrB and the reasons behind the placement. The placement of the crime is viewed with a general critical perspective, but also with a child perspective. The thesis describes how the law is designed and the placemen
The recovery of ‘waste heat’ from industrial and urban processes could meet a significant share of heating demands in urban and semi-urban areas. Replacing conventional heat sources in district heating (DH) systems with recovered heat could decrease primary energy inputs in a sector that globally relies to 90% on fossil fuels. Yet, despite the environmental, social, and economic benefits of waste
The rise of solar cells have been received with open arms as a renewable energy resource in Sweden. The new generation of solar cells containing semi conductive type III-V nanowires may pose, without proper safety measures, negative implications on health and the environment. In this study an overview of possible risks is considered in the waste management with solar cells containing nanowires. Al
The purpose of this thesis is to broaden my understanding of color as a creative tool of architecture in spatiality. The study will focus on different spatial phenomenons that can arise depending on how color interacts with objects, surfaces and spatiality. Parallel to this, different tools will be identified and then practiced in order to find ways for color to be included in the early design pro
Under 1700- och 1800-talet var judars rättigheter i Sverige starkt begrän-sade. Genom 1782 års judereglemente tilläts judar bosätta sig i Sverige under särskilda villkor samtidigt som de var föremål för omfattande re-striktioner. Under 1800-talet blev frågan om judars rättigheter och den ju-diska emancipationen ett omdebatterat ämne i Sveriges riksdag. År 1838 fick judar utökade rättigheter genom During the 18th and 19th centuries, the rights of Jews in Sweden were seve-rely restricted. Under the Jew Statute of 1782, Jews were permitted to settle in Sweden under certain conditions, while at the same time being subject to extensive restrictions. During the 19th century, the question of Jewish rights and Jewish emancipation was a heavily debated topic in the Swedish parliament. In 1838, Jews
The adolescent experience has over the last twenty years differed immensely from earlier generations. Generation Z, born somewhere between 1995 and 2010, are what some would call ‘digital natives’, being the very first children to be brought up in a digital advanced world with easy access to information and inspiration through constant connection to the world wide web. This research draws in parti
