In 2022, the United Nations Environmental Assembly (UNEA) adopted resolution 5/14, giving mandate to UN Member States to start negotiations toward an international legally binding instrument on plastic pollution. This report delves into the pre-session submissions by states and coalitions for the second (INC-2) and third (INC-3) rounds of negotiations, held in 2023. Once the contents of the docume
Within the framework of the European Land Arctic Physical Processes project and as part of the Danish Research Council's Polar Program, a study on trace gas exchange in a high-arctic ecosystem was conducted in NE Greenland, May-August 1997. On the basis of carbon dioxide flux measurements from three dominant surface types, this paper reports on the upscaling of such measurements from canopy to lan
The effects of combustion phase and fuel on smoke particle emissions from a wood stove operated with three different wood fuels and from a corn stove were investigated. A single-particle mass spectrometer (aerosol time of flight mass spectrometer (ATOFMS)) was used for time-and size-resolved chemical signatures and a scanning mobility particle sizer (SMPS) was used for online mobility size distrib
Background and purpose: Invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation are therapeutic options in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Related to known national ALS incidence figures, the study aims to examine gender aspects versus physiological data in patients with ALS commencing mechanical ventilation. Methods: Data from two nationwide registers involving all patients with ALS i
Macroporous sponge-like gelatin-fibrinogen (Gl-Fg) scaffolds cross-linked with different concentrations (0.05-0.5%) of glutaraldehyde (GA) were produced using cryogelation technology, which allows for the preparation of highly porous scaffolds without compromising their mechanical properties, and is a more cost-efficient process than freeze-drying. The produced Gl-Fg-GA(X) scaffolds had a uniform
Spectral information from induced polarisation (IP) measurements can be used for several applications as the characterisation of the lithology, the estimation of hydraulic parameters, the localization of contaminated areas and many more.So far, the spectral content has been mainly determined in frequency domain (FD). Due to significant instrumental developments and advanced data processing and inv
The GHG-CCI project (http://www.esa-ghg-cci.org/) is one of several projects of the European Space Agency's (ESA) Climate Change Initiative (CCI). The goal of the CCI is to generate and deliver data sets of various satellite-derived Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) in line with GCOS (Global Climate Observing System) requirements. The "ECV Greenhouse Gases" (ECV GHG) is the global distribution of
Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate potential associations between body composition and current smoking in young healthy women from high-risk families. Cigarette smoke contains >7000 chemicals of which 69 are established carcinogens and smoke also acts as an aromatase inhibitor. Smoking is now recognized as a carcinogen for the breast and influences both risk and prognosis.
The Division of Industrial Electrical Engineering and Automation, IEA, at LTH is participating in the research project DLAB, sponsored by E.ON. The goal of this project is to gain more understanding of the problems arising from increased cablification of Swedish medium voltage distribution grid and to develop an electric power laboratory. More and longer cables have increased the capacitive earth
Background: The Nordic countries represent a unique case study for the COVID-19 pandemic due to socioeconomic and cultural similarities, high-quality comparable administrative register data and notable differences in mitigation policies during the pandemic. We aimed to compare weekly excess mortality in the Nordic countries across the three full pandemic years 2020–2022. Methods: Using data on wee
BACKGROUND: Preterm birth has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity in adult life. We evaluated whether preterm birth is associated with deviating cardiac structure and function before school start.METHODS AND RESULTS: In total, 176 children aged 6 years and born extremely preterm (EXPT; gestational age of 22-26 weeks) and 134 children born at term (control [CTRL]) were s
Purpose – This paper attempts to improve our understanding of strategic asymmetric alliance formation within the field of entrepreneurship. We employ previous research findings on alliance formation and power relationships to examine the alliance formation tactics of startups. Accordingly, we aim to answer the question: ‘How do entrepreneurs build ties with comparably larger and more established c
In the 1970s linguists started studying genderlects, the linguistic differences related to gender and its power dimensions. Studies conducted by Scandinavian researchers have shown that boys and men speak more and are more dominant in public spaces such as the classroom and political debates (Einarsson & Hultman 1984, Gomard & Krogstad 2001). One of the most prominent researchers in the fi

Eftersom människan nu står inför sin största utmaning någonsin – klimatkrisen – är det viktigare än någonsin att miljöskyddet integreras i alla delar av den Europeiska unionen. Miljöskydd anses vara ett huvudmål för EU. I Artikel 3.3 i EU-fördraget anges att Unionens inre marknad bör arbeta för en hållbar utveckling och en hög skyddsnivå och förbättring av miljön. Den inre marknaden ska dock ocksåAs humanity is facing its biggest challenge ever – the climate crisis – it is now more important than ever that environmental protection is integrated in all parts of the European Union. Environmental protection is considered a main objective of the EU. In Article 3(3) of the TEU is stated that the internal market of the Union should work for a sustainable development and a high level of protectio

The “new” Lund Protein Production Platform (LP3) was created as a centre in June 2016 by the Faculty of Science, the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Engineering, by combining the “old” LP3, which specialised in protein production, with the Lund University protein crystallization facility. In 2021, LP3 continued to deliver projects to its users at the maximum of its capacities and as much as

Popular Abstract in English This thesis concerns experiments of heat transfer in a rectangular channel with ribs and an obstacle. Liquid crystal thermography (LCT) is used to record the temperature fields in the experiments. LCT is based on measurement of the color response of a heated surface. When illuminated with a white light, the liquid crystals react to temperature changes by changing color,This thesis presents experimental investigations of local heat transfer in a rectangular channel (aspect ratio AR = 4) with continuous transverse ribs as well as an obstacle. Liquid crystal thermography (LCT) is employed to obtain the temperature fields in the heat transfer experiments. The liquid crystal applied here has a red start at 35°C and a bandwidth of 1°C. The work consists of (1) periodi
