The upcycling trend has received renewed attention in the past few years due to growing concerns for the environment related to increased resource consumption and waste volumes. Indeed, cities across the world are supporting resource upcycling initiatives by establishing do-it-yourself (DIY) repair cafes and makerspaces as a means to transform societies towards sustainable develop-ment. However, t
The purpose of this project was to find estimates of the operational releases of 14C and 3H from new SMR technology that is being considered in Sweden, namely the Rolls-Royce SMR and the GE-Hitachi BWRX-300. To achieve this goal, models of the reactors of interest were made in the continuous-energy Monte-Carlo neutron and photon transport code Serpent, where the production of 14C and 3H could then
Background: Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs, isoleucine, leucine, and valine) are commonly applied to promote muscle protein synthesis. However, the effects of BCAAs on exercise-induced substrate metabolism, performance and post-exercise fatigue during endurance exercise remain unclear. Methods: In a double-blind cross-over design, eleven active males completed 1 h of constant load exercise (CLE

Mate choice in plants is poorly understood, in particular its indirect genetic benefits, but also the direct benefits of avoiding harmful matings. In the herb Collinsia heterophylla, delayed stigma receptivity has been suggested to enhance pollen competition, potentially functioning as a female mate choice trait. Previous studies show that this trait can mitigate the cost of early fertilization ca
We use historical data on union density and new historical data on policies toward migrants to study the long-run relationship between the strength of trade unions and the social and economic rights of migrants in the Global North. In countries with strong trade unions, there was, for a long time, a widening distance between the rights of migrants and the rights of citizens, probably because the r
Decreasing floral resources as a result of habitat loss is one of the key factors in the decline of pollinating insects worldwide. Understanding which plants pollinators use is vital to inform the provision of appropriate floral resources to help prevent pollinator loss. Using a globally important pollinator, the honeybee, we show how changes in agricultural intensification, crop use and the sprea
Climatic factors and water and land use management mainly impact dust storm frequency and intensity. Water scarcity and a drier climate will lead to more severe and frequent dust storms in the near and far future. This makes dust storm susceptibility a dynamic phenomenon requiring spatiotemporal analyses. Regarding the complexity of this phenomenon, this chapter discusses AI-based methods for spat
This paper is concerned with calculating the branching ratio of the decay A1 −→ Υ + γ of a pseudo-scalar Higgs boson, where Υ is a bound vector meson state of the quarks b and b-bar The results will then be applied to the b. phenomenology of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model in the case where A1 has a mass in the interval 9.46 − 12 GeV . The paper will review the concept of spontan
The digital age we live in is in constant development and the public libraries have had to adjust to this change partly by providing ebooks, digital audio books and web pages with information for their users. Digital books keep gaining popularity among Swedish citizens. The Swedish Library Act states that in terms of language the public libraries shall pay extra attention to the five national mino
Despite many years of progress towards closing the gender pay gap and achieving racial equality, women from ethnic minority groups in the United Kingdom earn less compared to their male counterparts and to the population average. The extent of channelling into certain areas of occupation and employment are a prominent feature of the employment of minority groups in the UK and is a key mechanism in
Risk and vulnerability assessments are an important part of the Swedish disaster management system and can be used as input for decision making. Today disaster management decisions are made on all levels in Sweden depending on the extent of the decisions. The purpose of this thesis has been to perform a descriptive study of how risk and vulnerability assessments are utilised as input to decision m
This qualitative case-study highlights the importance of the phenomenon of migration, under the aspect of civic activism of migrants, and its impact on Italian agricultural sustainable development. Migrants are too often seen as a burden rather than active agents of development. The present research investigates how political activism of migrants develops and eventually affects the sustainable dev
ABSTRACTBackground and Objective: Working from a harm reduction (HR) approach underscores that addiction care professionals (ACPs) serve people with substance use disorder in a non-judgmental environment, encouraging people to seek intervention without abstinence as the ultimate goal. This study aims toexplore and compare the attitudes toward the acceptability of harm reduction among ACPs in SouthABSTRACTBackground and Objective: Working from a harm reduction (HR) approach underscores that addictioncare professionals (ACPs) serve people with substance use disorder in a non-judgmental environment,encouraging people to seek intervention without abstinence as the ultimate goal.

Syfte: I Sverige finns det idag inga publicerade studier som undersöker effekten av morfologisk intervention på läs- och skrivförmågan. Syftet med denna studie var att testa huruvida morfologisk intervention, med fokus på sammansatta ord och avledningsmorfologi, kan stärka färdigheterna avkodning, läshastighet, stavning och morfologisk medvetenhet hos svensktalande elever i årskurs 4–6 med läs- oc
GLOW submission In Defense of the Merge-Only Hypothesis Koji Fujita / Kyoto University In this presentation I defend and further consolidate the “Merge-only” hypothesis of current minimalism (Chomsky 2008, 2010, Berwick 2011, Berwick & Chomsky 2011, inter alia) by proposing a theory of language evolution according to which it was Merge that gave rise to other major components of the human language
