This dissertation deals with the morphological development in written L2 French by Swedish learners. The thesis presents a detailed analysis of number marking and agreement in NPs and VPs, focusing mainly on the production of the morphemes –s (in NP) and the third person plural –nt (in VP). These agreements are particularly interesting in French where number morphology is often silent in the oral
The challenge how to assist enterprises more effectively within industrial hot spots of the Danube River Basin in order to meet environmental standards while enhancing their competitiveness was addressed by the project Transfer of Environmentally Sound Technology (TEST). New, integrated approaches were developed and found to be effective in fostering organizational learning and helping to ensure i
Finns det någon poäng med att övertyga gästerna om varumärkets storhet om inte de anställda är med på tåget? Det har påpekats att utan motiverade och nöjda anställda riskerar varumärkets och ledningens löften till gästerna att bli tomma, då det är personalen som ska leverera den utlovade servicen. Vi anser det intressant att undersöka hur företag inom hotellbranschen arbetar med att motivera sin p
Catalonia is a nation with it's own language, its own culture, own policy and own history it is said. A non-independent nation that is living it's ordinary life flagging its banal symbols as if it al ready was an independent state. Some catalanistas assert that this kind of weirdness could be the death row for Catalonia and its future as in independent nation of its own. They state that it
In 1994, Rwanda was a country ravaged by ethnic violence of an incomprehensible scale as 800,000 people were killed within 100 days. Whilst the abhorrent events of Rwanda’s genocide lack justification, the genocide marked a turning point for women’s position in this traditionally patriarchal society. In this post-conflict context, this study investigates adults’ perceptions of the gendered divisio

Functional MRI (fMRI) using the blood-oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal provides valuable insight into grey matter activity. However, uncertainty surrounds the white matter BOLD signal. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) offers an alternative fMRI contrast sensitive to transient cellular deformations during neural activity, facilitating detection of both grey and white matter activity. Furthe
Bivalves are considered mainly filter-feeding organisms; they remove suspended particles including phytoplankton, zooplankton, and bacteria from the water column. Moreover, some bivalves can also feed via pedal-feeding, which is the uptake of organic matter from the sediment using cilia on the foot. Diplodon parallelopipedon is a native bivalve from South America, which can obtain their foo
Dizziness and vertigo affect up to 20% of adults annually. Cervicogenic dizziness (CGD), a debated clinical entity, is characterized by dizziness associated with cervical pain or dysfunction, stemming from altered proprioceptive input from the cervical spine. Despite its recognition in clinical practice, CGD remains controversial due to its reliance on exclusionary diagnosis and the absence of spe

After a brief outlook on the field of concatenative synthesis of singing, with emphasis on the differences in comparison to synthesis of speech, the present paper gives an overview of a simple system for singing synthesis in Swedish based on concatenation of diphones. The system, called Burcas, accepts as input a text file for lyrics, from which it extracts a target phoneme sequence using basic le
SoPIP2;1 is one of the major integral proteins in spinach leaf plasma membranes. In the Xenopus oocyte expression system its water channel activity is regulated by phosphorylation at the C terminus and in the first cytosolic loop. To assess its structure, SoPIP2;1 was heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris as a His-tagged protein and in the non-tagged form. Both forms were reconstituted into
The Sheinwoodian succession of Gotland comprises the Högklint, Tofta and Hangvar Formations and most of the Slite Group. The succession consists of hierarchically ordered shallow marine depositional cycles, produced by orbitally forced climate changes. During warmer and wetter intervals (climate maxima) more carbonate was produced than during the cooler and dryer climate minima. Higher carbonate p
Sekundär användning av e-hälsodata är ett viktigt steg i att direkt och indirekt stärka vården, både inom Sverige och EU. Inom kort förväntas den uppmärksammade EU-förordningen om ett European Health Data Space (EHDS) antas. Genom förordningen kommer ett gemensamt hälsodataområde skapas vilket bland annat möjliggör sekundär användning av uppemot 450 miljoner EU-medborgares e-hälsodata för exempelvSecondary use of e-health data is an important step in directly and indirectly strengthening healthcare, both in Sweden and the EU. The anticipated EU regulation on a European Health Data Space (EHDS) will create a common health data space, allowing for the secondary use of the e-health data of up to 450 million EU citizens for research, innovation and decision-making. This has the potential to re
The hitchhiker’s guide to satellite dependencies For the last half century, humanity has gained access to better weather reports, live coverage of the Olympics, and a handheld map of the globe, all thanks to satellites in space. But what happens if these satellites fail? That question has been asked, but never answered in full. This thesis has aimed to assists researchers in answering that questiVital societal functions and critical infrastructure rely to an increasing extent on services from space, such as navigation and positioning systems, timekeeping, and communications. However, understanding of space service dependencies is low among practitioners and society at large, with research on societal space dependency being limited as well. In order to avoid cascading effects from disrupti
Introduction Using body mass index (BMI) as a proxy, previous Mendelian randomization (MR) studies found total causal effects of general obesity on polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Hitherto, total and direct causal effects of general- and central obesity on PCOS have not been comprehensively analyzed. Objectives To investigate the causality of central- and general obesity on PCOS using surrogat
