The amphibian fauna of the Central Menabe region in Western Madagascar is important in respect to their extraordinary adaptations to the dry forest habitat. This habitat is highly threatened. Until 1990, the dry forest in the west of the island was thought to have been reduced to only 3% of its original extent. New analyses show that this deforestation was ongoing at an alarming rate also in the l
The AIDS crisis in the developing world has become a priority for international collaboration. The challenge is to find a balance between the acknowledged need to protect large investments expended in developing new medicines and the goal of providing essential medicines to poor countries. Patent protection must prevent undue infringement yet at the same time allow solutions to humanitarian needs.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar vad som kvalificerar att karakteriseras som handikapp i svensk socialförsäkringslagstiftning och vilka principer som användes för att avgöra vem som har rätt till stöd som funktionshindrad. Avhandlingen fokuserar på de behov/kriterier som i socialpolitiken befinns värdiga och acceptabla att utgöra kategorien handikappade. I centrum för uppmärkThis thesis is about what qualifies to be characterised as disability in Swedish social security legislation and which principles are used to decide who is entitled to social security benefit as disabled. The thesis brings into focus which definitions of needs and criteria that are found 'worthy' and acceptable to include in a disability category in Swedish social policy. In other words are social
The amount of mutual information contained in the time series of two elements gives a measure of how well their activities are coordinated. In a large, complex network of interacting elements, such as a genetic regulatory network within a cell, the average of the mutual information over all pairs, ⟨I⟩, is a global measure of how well the system can coordinate its internal dynamics. We study this a
BACKGROUND: Inter-atrial conduction disturbance is associated with the presence of atrial fibrillation (AF), although little is known about the anatomy of the inter-atrial connections. METHODS AND RESULTS: Twenty-seven hearts from in-hospital deaths were examined and stratified in two groups with regard to their history of AF. Measurements of atrial weight were performed after excising the atria a
We discuss general non-stationary spatio-temporal surfaces that involve dynamics governed by velocity fields. The approach formalizes and expands previously used models in analysis of satellite data of significant wave heights. We start with homogeneous spatial fields. By applying an extension of the standard moving average construction we obtain models which are stationary in time. The resulting
Starting from the assumption that citizenship is propertythat would be more valuable if it were transferable, the paper explores the idea of commodification of citizenship. The paper provides arguments in favor of commodification and recommendations to how the market for citizenships should be designed. A market for citizenships could result in an improved matching between employer and employee whStarting from the assumption that citizenship is valuable private property that would be even more valuable if it were transferable, the paper explores the idea of commodification of citizenship.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Nanoteknik och nanotrådar omnämns ofta media idag, men vad är egentligen en nanotråd, och vad kan den användas till? Dagens datorer, lysdioder och solceller är till stor del beroende av halvledare. En halvledare är ett kristallint material där man enkelt kan ändra ledningsförmågan. Man kan dels bestämma ledningsförmågan när materialet tillverkas genom att tillföra ytterThis thesis investigates novel electrical nanowire characterization tools and devices. Conventional characterization methods, long available to bulk semiconductor samples, have been adapted and transferred to the nanowire geometry. The first part of the thesis describes the development of Hall effect measurements, an entirely new characterization tool for nanowires. It is shown that Hall effect me
This disquisition explores the possibilities to install a battery storage situated in a gasturbineplant to enable a start up of the gasturbine in the case of a powerfailure. Since powerfailures are rare, the battery will mostly and to a large extent be unused, this creates an economic dilemma. Uniper has taken in and recieved a tender which includes and discribes a battery with a larger storage sy

Rapportserien Research Reports in Social Work är i första hand en möjlighet för personer verksamma vid Socialhögskolan att presentera aktuell forskning. Förutom forskningsrapporter rymmer RRSW även licentiatavhandlingar. Tanken är att RRSW ska vända sig till en bred läsekrets bestående av såväl forskare som studenter och praktiker. De texter som publiceras i RRSW ska vara resultat av slutförda pro

Innovation strategies are crucial for corporate success and should be a top priority for packaging companies. However, to improve the innovativeness of packaging manufacturers, there is a need to increase the integration of product and packaging development and collaboration within the supply chain. New methods for innovative packaging development are needed. Packaging plays a valuable role in the
The aim of this study was to investigate and gain a deeper understanding of how the staff at the youth clinic approaches, and might influence, participation and responsibility as regards the girl and boy respectively in the process that follows when an unplanned pregnancy has been verified. Qualitative interviews were carried out with staff at five youth clinics in Skåne. All staff did routinely w

In the world of cryptography, stream ciphers are known as primitives used to ensure privacy over a communication channel. One common way to build a stream cipher is to use a keystream generator to produce a pseudo-random sequence of symbols. In such algorithms, the ciphertext is the sum of the keystream and the plaintext, resembling the one-time pad principal. Although the idea behind stream ciphe
The global demand for ultralow-temperature (ULT) refrigeration units gets greatly promoted, for storage, transportation, and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. In this work, a ULT freezer is developed with a cascade refrigeration system (CRS) utilizing environmentally friendly refrigerants R290 and R170. The performance of the ULT freezer is experimentally evaluated under different ambient tempera

Pedestrian dynamics is concerned with understanding the movement patterns that arise in places where more than one person walks. Relating theoretical models to data is a crucial goal of research in this field. Statistical model fitting and model selection are a suitable approach to this problem and here we review the concepts and literature related to this methodology in the context of pedestrian
Among the numerous point vapor sources, microsecond-pulsed spark ablation at atmospheric pressure is a versatile and environmentally friendly method for producing ultrapure inorganic nanoparticles ranging from singlets having sizes smaller than 1 nm to larger agglomerated structures. Due to its fast quenching and extremely high supersaturation, coagulational growth already begins at the atomic sca
