A palaeoecological study of Holocene lake sediments above the highest shoreline in the province of Västerbotten, northeast Sweden

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: En sedimentsekvens från sjön Svartkälstjärn i Västerbotten provtogs för pollen- och sporanalys samt kolpartikelanalys. Sedimentens ålder bestämdes med 14C-dateringar och spår av radioisotopen 137Cs, som indikerar modern tid då de återspeglar provsprängningarna av kärnvapen under senare delen av 1900-talet. Dateringarna visar att sedimentationen i sjön började fö

Early Ludlow (Silurian) graptolites from Skåne, southern Sweden

Colonusskiffern består av ljusgrå, grönaktig eller blåaktig skiffer med en del karbonatinslag. Vid vissa lokaler finns även kalksten och mineralet muskovit i skiffern. Colonusskiffern har en uppskattad tjocklek på mellan 600-1100 m i Skåne. Graptoliter ur colonusskiffern, från tidig Ludlow, beskrivs från sju olika lokaler i Skåne. En del av de genomgångna lokalerna har beskrivits många år tidigare

A dendroclimatic study at Store Mosse, South Sweden : climatic and hydrologic impacts on recent Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris) growth dynamics

Tallar Pinus sylvestris som växer på Store mosse i Småland har provtagits. Tolv bestånd från den västra kanten, som tillsammans bildar tre transekter, och tre bestånd från den östra kanten ingår i denna dendrokronologiska undersökning. Syftet med projektet har varit att korrelera ringbreddsvariationer från tallar växande på olika platser längs mossekanten för att undersöka i vilken grad klimatiska

Peat stratigraphical study of hydrological conditions at Stass Mosse, southern Sweden, and the relation to Holocene bog-pine growth

Sammanfattning: Torvhorisonter med stora mängder subfossila stubbar och rötter av tall (Pinus sylvestris) förekommer ofta i nordeuropeiska torvmossar. De visar att mossarna varit tallbevuxna under delar av Holocen. Det antas att perioder med relativt låg mossefuktighet har förstärkt etableringen av dessa mossetallar och att hydrologiska förändringar har påverkat tillväxt och degeneration hos tallaAbstract: Peat horizons with numerous subfossil stumps and roots of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), frequently occurring in northern European peat bogs, are reveling periods with considerable pine growth on the bogs during the Holocene. It is assumed that periods with relatively low bog surface wetness (BSW) have enhanced establishment of bog-pines in the past and that hydrological changes have inf

Dialogic Communication in Digital Diplomacy: A Case Study on The Embassy of Sweden in Bucharest

The number of diplomatic actors that use social media platforms to communicate with the publics has increased in the past years. Yet, these communicative approaches are still poorly researched. Moreover, the few studies from diplomacy and the ones from communication that explore two-way communication on social media present contradictions. If scholars from diplomacy present dialogue as a taken for

Habitat selection of Arctic-breeding waders in relation to palsa mire - a case study in Tavvavuoma, northern Sweden

Palsa mires are typical wetland landscapes of the Arctic regions, consisting of mosaics of palsas (raised formations of peat and permafrost) and shallow ponds, all embedded in wet mires. These heterogeneous habitats support rich and abundant wader populations, which breed there during the short Arctic summer. Although being threatened by climate change, relatively little is known about the ecologi

Towards a critical understanding of Doughnut Economics - The case of Tomelilla, Sweden

In recent years, Kate Raworth’s new alternative macroeconomic model, “doughnut economics” (DE) has become increasingly popular within policies on different scales around the world. The doughnut-shaped framework addresses the urgent crises of our time by advocating for a balanced development that considers the planet’s well-being while securing our social needs. Since the introduction of the framew

From Fama-French to LSTM: Rethinking Risk Factors in the Swedish Stock Market

This paper investigates the application of a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model to construct a forward-looking risk factor for asset pricing. The LSTM model's predictions are utilized to create a novel risk factor, derived from long-short portfolios, offering an innovative approach to decomposing asset returns. For comparative analysis, the Fama-French three-factor (FF3) and Carhart four-fact

Navigating the Shift from B2C to D2C: Addressing Marketing Strategy Challenges for Credit Reference Agencies in Sweden

Detta examensarbete undersöker hur ett business-to-business (B2B) inriktat företag som utvecklar ett direct-to-consumer (D2C) segment bör anpassa sin marknadsföringsstrategi för att växa genom marknadspenetration.

Trust-Based Leadership in Hybrid Work: A Case Study of a Large Swedish Technology Company

The phenomenon of hybrid work, combining remote and on-site work, has gained popularity in recent years following the COVID-19 pandemic. This shift has introduced new dynamics in the workplace, calling for a reevaluation of leadership practices in order to address the challenges and opportunities hybrid work brings. Despite the growing usage of hybrid work models, there is limited research on the

Long term ecosystem fluxes of BVOCs over a Norway spruce (Picea abies) forest in southern Sweden

Spruce forests cover a large portion of northern Europe, where species like Norway spruce (Picea abies) is considered to be a significant biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emitter to the atmosphere. BVOCs are highly reactive and can significantly influence atmospheric chemistry. Terpenoids are the most abundant group of BVOCs where especially Monoterpenes can facilitate the formation and g

Instrumentation of multilevel systems with transducers to characterize hydrogeological conditions at a PCE and TCE contaminated site in Helsingborg, Sweden

Detaljerade data är avgörande vid karaktärisering av komplexa förorenade områden. I denna studie utrustar vi ett antal G360-brunnssystem med Star-Oddi milli-TD-tryckgivare i ett mestadels PCE (tetrakloretylen)- och TCE (trikloretylen)-förorenat bostadsområde i Helsingborg. Trots att dessa tryckgivare vanligtvis används inom marina undersökningar gör deras kostnad samt kompakta storlek dem av intre

Property Taxes, Property Prices and Wealth Inequality: The role of recurrent property tax in the interaction between wealth inequality, property prices and homeownership rate with a special focus on Sweden.

This paper examines the effect of the recurrent tax on immovable property on wealth distribution. It also investigates how the wealth distributive effect of property prices is affected by the homeownership rate in a country. Data on the mean to median wealth ratio, tax sizes, property prices, homeownership rate, and economic freedom of 36 OECD member countries over the years 2000-2021 are used to

Testing a flexible hydrological model (FLEXG) for streamflow simulation in the Krycklan catchment, Sweden

Streamflow analysis helps us understand the availability of water resources in a region or a river. Accurate and timely streamflow monitoring is essential to improve our understanding of the hydrological cycle. Streamflow information is also necessary for many applications, such as irrigation planning, watershed management, hydropower products, flood control, and integrated water resources managem

A Housing Research Through Individual Border Experience, reflections on two housing projects in between Sweden and Türkiye

As humans, we experience many spaces/ borders throughout our life flow. The borders of countries, the houses we live in, the borders of a playground, or the borders between two people. Sometimes we shape the borders, sometimes the borders shape us. However, irrespective of the circumstances, these borders exert discernible influences on the trajectory of our life flow. Each of our border experienc
