Land use change from agricultural intensification has been highlighted as one of the major drivers of global declines in insects, reducing species diversity and abundance and shifting community composition towards generalist species. However, it remains a challenge to determine how land use change impacts the genetic diversity of species and populations even if this diversity is vital to their lon
BACKGROUND: Previous post hoc analyses of clinical trials have suggested that a higher percentage of systolic blood pressure time in target range (SBP-TTR) was associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, there is limited evidence from large prospective cohort studies on the relationship between long-term SBP-TTR and the risk of CVD.OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this stu
The increasing feeling of systemic failure among the public gives rise to a growing number of social movements including the climate movement. The global environmental organization 350.org focuses on building, connecting, and empowering the grassroots climate movement by initiating and facilitating different campaigns, e.g. the Fossil Free (FF) Campaign. I conducted in-depth interviews of grassroo
Utrymmet på jordytan håller på att ta slut, vi blir fler och fler och våra städer blir större och större. Istället för att expandera våra städer utåt borde det fokuseras på att göra mer plats i städerna. I en vanlig svensk stad utgörs idag nästan 50 % av vägar och annan transport. Om det mesta av all transport hade kunnat förflyttas ned under marken istället, hade den frigjorda platsen kunnat bli The room for the human race on earth is dwindling. The population is increasing and our cities are expanding every day. Instead of expanding our cities we could focus on creating more room inside our cities. Today close to 50% of the total area of a normal Swedish city consist of transport infrastructure What if we could move most of that 50% down below ground? Imagine all the space it would creat
Unga lagöverträdare upp till tjugoett år har sedan länge särbehandlats i den svenska straffrätten. Detta kommer främst till uttryck genom den så kallade ungdomsreduktionen i 29 kap. 7 § BrB, vilken bland annat motiveras med unga lagöverträdares outvecklade ansvarsförmåga och större sanktionskänslighet i relation till vuxna. Ungdomsreduktionen slopades delvis den 2 januari 2022 och unga lagöverträd
Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation. This thesis aims to deepe
The apparent high valuations in the aggregate market and the high price earnings ratios, experienced in the equity markets at the end of the 1990s, can be characterized as a so-called speculative bubble. The existence of such a phenomenon can in part be attributed to less-than-rational aspects of investor behavior and human judgment. The purpose of this thesis is to conduct a research on how priva
Alkoholkonsumtionen i Sverige är högre än på mycket länge. Med nya överenskommelser, som öppnade möjligheter för alkoholbranschen att marknadsföra sina produkter, utsätts konsumenter för ökad påtryckning av önskad kommunikation från företagen. Företagens kommunikation riktar sig gärna till den yngre allmänheten som ofta formar sina uppfattningar och attityder genom inlärning och erfarenheter. Upps
In the Iron Age AD, ringforts were constructed on the Swedish island Öland. Most of them contained a settlement inside. The remains of 15 of these ringforts are still preserved in the landscape. This thesis gives a general overview of the known and the possible Ölandic ringforts and their historical and constructional context, before analysing and comparing the settlements inside the ringforts Eke
The aim of this master thesis is to conclude how the energy systems of smart cities can be designed to achieve an annual net-zero energy consumption. The study investigated different techniques that can be used for producing and storing energy locally. This was implemented on a planned residential project located in Veberöd, south of Scania. Hence, the heating and domestic hot water demand were ba
Medverkan till brott enligt brottsbalken (1962:700), BrB, 23:4 är en vidsträckt brottsform inte enbart utifrån kriminaliseringens utsträckning över olika delikt, men även eftersom tröskeln för det otillåtna är tämligen låg. Att även de som avses skyddas av olika straffbud ibland medverkar till gärningsmannens gärning är därför inte särskilt konstigt. Samtidigt kan ofta antas att lagstiftaren inte Complicity in crime according to Chapter 23 Section 4 of The Penal Code (1962:700), BrB, is an extensive type of crime, not only due to complicity being criminalized for a substantive number of crimes, but also because the threshold for the unallowed is rather low. That those who are supposed to be protected by different penalty provisions sometimes formally participate in the perpetrator’s act, i
Resning är ett av de extraordinära rättsmedlen som finns i svensk processrätt och är att se som ett undantagsfall till huvudregeln om att domstolars avgörande, som vunnit laga kraft, förblir orubbade. När ett mål beviljas resning blir det föremål för en ny domstolsprövning och det kan ske antingen till fördel eller nackdel för den tilltalade. Uppsatsen redogör för de motiv som ligger bakom det modOne of the extraordinary remedies in Swedish procedural law is when a case is granted a new trial after it became legally binding. It is an exceptional case that deviates from the general rule that the court’s ruling should not be disturbed. When a petition for a new trial is granted, it can either be in favor of the defendant or to their detriment. The essay describes the motives behind the insti
The ongoing climate change calls for an immediate decarbonization of society, where one important measure is a rapid transition of the energy system through an expansion of variable renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar photovoltaic power production. This transition imposes new challenges to the electrical power system, not least from a power balance perspective. This master’s thesis r
I have examined a text known as the litany. The term litany is, within the scope of my essay, the collective name for the text which is also known by other names such as Psalm 700:1, intercessory prayer 8 and Litany - shorter form in the liturgical context of the Church of Sweden. I have read the litany with a starting point in Gustavo Gutiérrez's liberation theology and Gustaf Wingren's S
Electric road systems (ERS) provide electric power to vehicles en route (dynamic charging) and can reduce the need for onboard battery capacity. This thesis sets out to examine the power demand of an ERS and the integration of energy storage in its power supply for grid load alleviation and backup power. Specifically, the analysis is based on the ongoing project to build a permanent ERS on a 21 km

I ett försök att kunna straffa brott med rasistiska motiv hårdare infördes den s.k. straffskärpningsregeln, i 29 kap. 2 § 7 p. BrB under 1990-talet. Den ger domstolen möjligheten att skärpa straffet för ett brott, om motivet varit helt eller delvis hatiskt. Lagstiftaren har infört regeln för att skapa ett mer enhetligt och frekvent beaktande av hatmotiv, samtidigt som den ska fungera som ett förläIn an attempt to enable to punish crimes with racist motives the so called punishment harshening rule was added to the Penal Code during the 1990s. It gives the court the opportunity to harshen the punishment for a crime, if the perpetrator have had a hateful motive, competely or partially. The rule is legislated to create a more uniform and frequent consideration of hateful motives throughout the
Syftet med detta examensarbete är klargöra gällande rätt för beskattning av styrelsearvoden. Ämnet har varit föremål för ett flertal avgöranden av HFD under en längre tid och nu senast ett plenumavgörande, följt av efterföljande resningsprövning. Frågan är komplex och kan sägas dels innefatta hur styrelsearvodet ska allokeras till ett skattesubjekt, dels till vilket inkomstslag den uppburna inkomsThe purpose of this thesis is to bring clarity to the established law concerning taxation of board fees. This subject has been subject to several rulings by the Supreme Administrative Court over a long period of time, of which the most recent being followed by a petition for a new trial. The issue is a complex one and can be said to consist of two components. The first being which taxable person t
Annually laminated (varved) sediments provide opportunities to reconstruct climate change and human impact on the environment with high temporal resolution. Depending on the character of the varves, such sediments can provide insight into the delivery of both autochthonous and allochthonous material from the lake and its catch- ment and answer questions regarding both regional and local responses
