Dramatic declines of some arthropod populations have recently received a lot of attention. Identified declines have mainly been attributed to changes in agriculture, climate, pathogen prevalence and light pollution, as well as cross-regional effects of, e.g., drifting pesticides. However, the overall picture is complex and debated, and there is a need for systematically collected long-term data, n
This chapter presents Sweden’s national public funding of independent arts andcultural activities and compares it to Nordic grant schemes and the funding of arts and culture at the European Union level. The aim of the chapter is to compare the orientation of funding at the various levels. Speciically, the chapter describes and discusses differences and similarities in the goals for, and scope and
There is a rising proportion of aging population worldwide. The high vulnerability of older adults to morbidity and mortality introduces an enormous health and economic burden to themselves and the society. The established leading cause of death among older adults is due to chronic and vascular diseases. These conditions are related to the nutritional status and are preventable with the help of ac
This thesis describes different aspects of nanotechnology manufacturing with nanoimprint lithography (NIL), a relatively new nanofabrication tool capable of high resolution and high throughput. Surface structure creation with NIL is based on mechanical deformation of the patterning material. This is radically different from the two main established methods, ultra violet lithography (UVL) and elect
The objective of ceramology is to describe pottery craft traditions; the potters, their production, social organisation and the use of the products. Through this the human actions surrounding the pottery are studied. The objective of the research presented in this thesis is to study patterns of contacts between different, contemporary sites within a limited area through a ceramological analysis of
This thesis describes the possibility of using hydrophobic peptide tags as tools for bioseparation and for the investigation of recombinant proteins. The hydrophobicity of a protein can easily be changed by minor modifications, such as fusions of tyrosine-containing peptides. The fusion tags may also increase both stability and expression of the fusion protein. Furthermore, a protein library with
Two different detection methods for on-line monitoring of substrates and products in ethanol fermentations have been studied. Amperometric biosensors were developed for use as detectors in flow injection or liquid chromatographic (LC) systems. Carbon paste was used as the electrode material and served as the supporting matrix to incorporate the enzymes alcohol oxidase or pyranose oxidase. Hydrogen
Food production and consumption are key drivers of environmental pressures and essential factors in the promotion and maintenance of health. Production of food occupies more than 1/3 of global land areas and is estimated to be responsible for some 30% of global greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, we live in a world where nearly one billion people go hungry and even more people suffer from
The primary aim of the present study is to reveal the creative awakening of Michalis Ganas, Maria Kirtzaki, Tzeni Mastoraki and Kostas Papageorgiou, four poets of the Greek 1970s Generation. All four poets were born during the decade of the 1940s. The thesis approaches the poets entire authorship from their debut, end of 1960s beginning of 1970s, until the present day, to distinguish a number of c
Exposure to nano-sized and nanostructured aerosol particles with tailored properties are likely to increase in society. Occupational exposure to various kinds of nanostructured aerosol particles such as soot and metal aggregates already exists. To understand the adverse human health effects of these particles, there is a need for systems that can Generate a stable output of aerosol particles, Char
The interpretation of ultrasonic imagery is typically not straightforward and of quite subjective nature and therefore strongly dependent on the expertise of its users. Thus the development of algorithms which aid in the interpretation of ultrasonic data is a highly relevant topic. This thesis examines aspects of segmentation and registration of ultrasonic data, utilizing the fact that the ultraso
This thesis consists of four independent exploratory research papers contributing to the economic literature on child and adolescent health, and adult educational and labor market outcomes. Each paper considers type 1 diabetes and focuses on onset over a specific age span. An overall conclusion of this thesis is that individuals with type 1 diabetes deviate from peers without diabetes, irrespectiv

For banks to remain resilient in times of economic instability, and what the Chair of the Supervisory Board of the European Central Bank refers to as; “radical uncertainty”, it is essential for banks to plan for the future. Challenges such as rising interest rates, climate change and geopolitical conflicts require proactive measures. Thus, accurately predicting bank revenue plays a crucial role in
Family oriented design has long been championed by sprawling suburbs and new town developments. Denser urban places have in most cases not been designed to attract or keep families as inhabitants, instead focusing on other qualities and user-groups. This has consequently led to a family flight from urban settings to monofunctional family oriented suburbs, in many chases exhilarating car-depencany
We observe that, while predicting returns remain difficult and uncertain, volatility exhibit more persistence and predictability due to well-known patterns such as volatility clustering (Mandelbrot, 1967). We test whether short-horizon volatility forecasts can be used to time leverage in a passive index strategy so as to mitigate the growth penalty from volatility drag in leveraged exchange-traded
