Time-series of digital elevation models (DEMs) of the forefield of the Bruarjokull surge-type glacier in Iceland were used to quantify the volume of material that was mobilized by the 1963-1964 surge. The DEMs were produced by stereophotogrammetry on aerial photographs from before the surge (1961) and after (1988 and 2003). The analysis was performed on two DEMs of Difference (DoDs), i.e., a 1961-
The paper examines the laws and policies that regulate corporate environmental practices in Ghana, with an emphasis on mining. In particular, the analysis of the legal and regulatory framework examines the extent to which it meets international best practices and standards of corporate conduct and the extent to which self-regulatory mechanisms are accommodated under the framework. This was accompl
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of a new, once-daily extended-release (ER) formulation of tolterodine in treating overactive bladder in older (greater than or equal to65) and younger (<65) patients. DESIGN: A 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. SETTING: An international study conducted at 167 medical centers. PARTICIPANTS: One thousand fifteen pa
The present series comprises all families (n = 77) with haemophilia B in Sweden and may be considered to be representative for the purposes of a population-based study of mutational heterogeneity. The 77 families (38 severe, 10 moderate, 29 mild) had 51 different mutations in total. Thirteen families had total, partial or small deletions, two had mutations in the promoter, eight families had splic
Objectives: To compare a laparoscopic (totally extraperitoneal patch (TEP)) and an open technique (Lichtenstein) for inguinal hernia repair regarding recurrence rate and possible risk factors for recurrence. Summary Background Data: Laparoscopic hernia repair has been introduced as an alternative to open repair. Short-term follow-tip suggests benefits for those patients operated with a laparoscopi

Popular Abstract in Swedish Trastsångarnas MHC gener i klarspråk Inuti kroppen ser vi väldigt lika ut allihop; men om mina njurar skulle sluta att fungera är det inte alls säkert att just du kan donera en njure till mig. Detta beror på att våra transplantations-gener eller s.k. MHC- (Major Histocompatibility Complex) gener är olika, och vid en transplantation måste många av donatorns och mottagarIn vertebrates the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) plays a central role in the specific immune defence against various pathogens. Compared with other coding genes the MHC genes exhibit an extremely high level of polymorphism that is maintained by balancing selection. The importance in the immune defence and the polymorphism make these genes interesting to study from an ecological and evolut
An easy and rapid hollow-fibre supported liquid membrane method (HFSLM) has been developed to extract and determinate the total concentration of four dinitrophenols in environmental water at ng L-1 level. This extraction method provides a high selectivity, short extraction time and very low cost for real samples. It is a three-phase system, aqueous-organic-aqueous, where the organic solvent is hel

Personal computers (PC) have become an indispensable product in modern life. Along with the growing volume of computers, the environmental burden and impact at the end-of-life phase known as e-waste become significant. Considering the material-intensive nature of the production of computers, and the environmental burdens caused by landfills, incinerations and improper recycling activities, persona

Genom en större lagreform, från år 2004, infördes nya bestämmelser i 6 kap., bland annat i syfte att förstärka skyddet för barn mot sexuella övergrepp. En av dessa var bestämmelsen om våldtäkt mot barn som bland annat kriminaliserar samlag eller med samlag jämförlig handling med barn under femton år. En lindrigare form av våldtäkt mot barn, sexuellt utnyttjande av barn, infördes med samma reform. In 2004, reforms were made in chapter 6 of the Penal Code in regards to strengthen the protection for children against sexual assaults. One of these was the provision regarding child rape that outlaws intercourse or comparable actions to intercourse with children under the age of fifteen. A minor form of child rape, sexual use of children, was implemented with the same reform. This was intended to
Uppsatsen behandlar två mycket starka och ibland motstående intressen. Den misstänktes möjlighet att på ett effektivt sätt förbereda sitt försvar genom rätten till insyn i förundersökningen och intresset av en effektiv brottsbekämpning genom skydd för uppgifter om spaningsmetoder. Syftet är att bedöma vad som är en bra avvägning mellan dessa intressen. En fördjupning har gjorts i två särskilda spThe paper deals with two very strong and sometimes conflicting interests. The suspect's right to effectively be able to prepare his defense by having the right to information in the preliminary investigation and the interest of law enforcement agencies’ efficiency in crime-fighting by protection of their surveillance methods. The purpose is to see what a good balance between these two interest
The thesis work concerns development and application of four versatile nonlinear optical techniques, based on exploiting ultrashort laser pulses, for diagnostic purposes in gases and flames. The four techniques, all laser-based, are two-photon laser-induced fluorescence (TPLIF), hybrid femtosecond/nanosecond (fs/ns) rotational coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (fs/ns RCARS), fs-laser-induced g
