Från oskiljbara till separerade: Fylogenin, ekologin och morfologin av de två lavarterna Rinodina pityrea och R. colobina i Sverige Rinodina pityrea och R. colobina är två lavar som tillhör släktet Rinodina. Typiska morfologiska karaktärer för arter inom Rinodina är mörka en septerade sporer. Enligt nuvarande litteratur så ser R. pityrea och R. colobina identiska ut. De har en blågrön blastidiös

The social media platform Instagram has become an official communication medium for the construction of corporate identity. This study explores how corporate identity is constructed on Oalty’s Instagram site using visual social semiotic analysis. More specifically, the aim of this study is to explore the visual and verbal approach used to construct corporate identity on Instagram from a small-medi

Development and international relations discourses have for a long-time represented women through dichotomous portrayals, either as liberated Western women or as oppressed Eastern women. The former being the heroic saviour of the latter. The subject of Western women joining the Islamic State, has not only received extensive media attention but proved the dichotomous portrayals of women to be insuf

Ett centralt problem i skogsbruket är att balansera mål för natur och produktion. Den avvägningen är inte bara viktigt på beståndsivå, utan det är även viktigt för att tänka på biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster på landskapsnivå. I Sverige, har privata skogsägare ett eget ansvar för skogsbruk, och dem tar beslut om skötsel främst på fastighets- eller beståndsnivå. I skogsbruket sker idag nat

The Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive calls for a new chapter in the fight against tax avoidance and abuse in the European Union - as a minimum level of protection against tax avoidance practises is established. Member States have a certain degree of discretion when implementing the directive. They must however make sure that measures transposed are in line with primary EU law. This essay investigates

After the financial crisis in 2008, governments became more aware about how multinational enterprises exploited gaps in the architecture of the international tax system in the globalized world to artificially shift profits to places where there was little or no taxation. It is estimated that base erosion and profit shifting cost countries 100-240 billion USD in lost revenue annually which is equal

Områden där floder mynnar ut i havet kan drabbas av kombinerade händelser av höga havsvattenstånd och höga flöden. När det sker kan konsekvenserna vara betydligt mer omfattande än vid isolerade händelser. För att förbereda samhällen för sådana händelser och undvika katastrofer när de sker är korrekt utfärdade hydrologiska varningar och hydrauliska kartläggningar av stor vikt. Sveriges MeteorologiCoastal floodplains are at risk for combined high discharge and sea level events. Consequences when they occur can be several magnitudes greater than the impact from any isolated event. In this thesis the compounding of different river and coastal flood combinations at three case study sites were studied through the use of 1D/2D-hydraulic modelling software LISFLOOD- FP. The areas were; Henån, Äng

The number of people living in urban areas has increased significantly over the past few decades. As such, cities have become centers for population and economic growth. These two factors, however, are also the most significant drivers of fossil fuel related CO2 emissions. Additionally, urban services contribute to dominant socio-technical systems that are inherently unsustainable, path dependent,

Purpose: Investigate the relation between block ownership and stock liquidity. Methodology: The empirical methods used in this project are of quantitative nature. We use a set of dependent variables representing liquidity measures in order to test how our main explanatory variable, sum of block holdings, affect this. Furthermore, control variables such as market capitalization, share price and vo

Lantbruket står inför stora förändringar till följd av en snabb ökning av den globala befolkningsmängden och klimatförändringar som skapar stor press på värdekedjan för matproduktion. Användningen av teknologier för precisionsodling (PA) har visat sig ha fördelar som kan vara en del av lösningen för dessa framtida utmaningar. Trots detta råder det inte konsensus inom forskarkåren om vilka aspekterThe agricultural industry is going through immense changes due to the rapid growth of the global population and climate change, creating increased pressure on the food supply chain. The use of precision agriculture (PA) technologies have shown benefits that could help solve these challenges. Despite this, there is no consensus among researchers on what aspects affect the adoption of PA technology

Abstract: This thesis analyzes the distribution of profits to labor. The factor share distribution has attracted mounting attention from researchers in the last decades, as it has been identified as a central determining factor for economic inequality. However, how the factor share distribution has developed historically is debated. By analyzing the historical wage share for manufacturing workers
