Online processing of syntactic constructions unique to the second language: An eye-movement study of subject–verb agreement with Swedish advanced learners of English

It is a hotly debated issue whether second language (L2) learners can achieve target-like online syntactic processing of relations not instantiated in their first language (L1). The Shallow Structure Hypothesis (SSH) predicts that L2 learners will not process configurations with structural distance in a target-like online fashion (Clahsen & Felser, 2006 a,b,c), whereas some studies find that t

The European corn borer in Sweden : a future perspective based on a phenological model approach

Klimatet och klimatförändringen är för många abstrakt. Något man förstår vikten av men har svårt att intuitivt greppa. Kort och gott så är klimatet en generell bild av vädret över en längre period, vanligtvis sett över 30 år. Ett klimatscenario målar den globala klimatbilden, och observationer tyder på att vi globalt är i linje med det mest pessimistiska framtida klimatscenario, där kännbara föränThe European Corn Borer (ECB) has the potential to markedly reduce the yield from corn plants and in turn affect the economy of farmers. The human world population is increasing and there is consequently an increased number of mouths to feed on a limited area, the Earth, and this makes this an important topic to study. It is thus important to find out whether the ECB likely will be an important pe

Geochemical and palaeomagnetic characteristics of a Swedish Holocene sediment sequence from Lake Storsjön, Jämtland

Som en del i ett fransk-svensk sammarbete i syfte att rekonstruera holocena klimatförändringar i centrala och norra Europa, togs en sedimentsekvens upp från Storsjön, Jämtland och analyserades för geokemiska och paleomagnetiska egenskaper. Den provtagna delen av sekvensen, bestående av en fryskärna samt tre Niederreiter-kärnor, tydliggjorde förändringar orsakade av klimat samt antropogen påverkan

Sedimentology and carbon isotope stratigraphy of Lower–Middle Ordovician successions of Slemmestad (Oslo-Asker, Norway) and Brunflo (Jämtland, Sweden)

Under- till mellanordoviciska avlagringar beskrivs med avseende på sedimentologi och koliso-topstratigrafi från två blottningar vid Slemmestad i Oslo-Askerdistriktet i södra Norge samt en borrkärnesektion från Brunfloområdet i Jämtland i Mittsverigeregionen. Avlagringarna från dessa platser jämfördes och korreleras med en borrkärnesektion från Tingskullen på Öland i sydöstra Sverige. Regionalt vik

Small‑scale distribution and behaviour of the harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) around Kullaberg, Sweden

Kullabergs tumlare styrs av dygns- och månfas I havet runt Kullaberg i Skåne lever Sveriges enda val – tumlaren (Phocoena phocoena). Tumlaren är en liten tandval som mestadels lever ensam och som använder ett slags inbyggt ekolod, kallad biosonar, för att navigera, kommunicera och hitta fisk att äta. Utanför Kullaberg utgör tumlare en vanlig syn, men generellt hotas arten av mänsklig påverkan och

Bioavailability of macro-nutrients in Swedish Baltic Sea river catchments

Abstract Rivers deliver substantial amounts of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) to estuaries, but the effects of these inputs on the ecosystem depend on the degree to which the nutrients are bioavailable. The nutrient bioavailability is poorly known in northern regions of Scandinavia where most of the nutrients are organic. To simplify the measurements of nutrient bioavailability and

Functional diversity of evertebrates in different types of beech forest in southern Sweden

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: De skånska bokskogarna. Vad kan krypen säga? Det är mycket som påverkar våra skogar i dag. Vägar som delar upp dem i mindre delar och lantbruk och kvävenedfall som stör balansen för vad som ska växa i skogens utkanter med sin gödsling. Även trafiken påverkar genom att kväveoxiderna i avgaserna har en gödande effekt. Skogens hälsa påverkas självklart av detta, Abstract Deforestation, fragmentation and loss of biodiversity, all are elements that are common today. With this project I want to evaluate if there is a difference in functional diversity of evertebrates between beech stands of low herb and shrub type beech forest. I also want to test if there is a difference within tested areas between low herb and shrub type forests, but also if here is a dif

Between green consumerism and civic action – A case study of the solutions to environmental problems brought up in Swedish upper secondary education

Education is considered to be one of the most important tools for enabling the transition to a sustainable society, and it is commonly agreed that education for sustainable development (ESD) should be pluralistic, democratic and promote critical thinking. However, there are indications that education might be dominated by green consumerist approaches to solving environmental problems. If this is t

Minority Participation in the Public Sphere – A Critical Analysis of Claim-Making on Muslim Rights and Islam in Swedish News Media

As Muslim communities have become more permanently established in Western European societies, debates around the public practice of Islam in these societies have become more prevalent, while the “global war on terror” rhetoric has aided the construction of Muslim minorities into “Others” along lines of religious and cultural differences. Based on theories of minority participation in the public sp

Unemployment and alcohol-related health in Sweden

A large number of studies have explored the relations between unemployment and alcohol-related health, but so far there is no consensus among the results. This paper contributes to the literature by exploring how unemployment is related to overall alcohol consumption as well as to the rates of alcohol poisoning, alcohol addiction and alcohol-related liver disease. A fixed effects model is used on

Discrimination and Social Exclusion in Sweden in the Age of Globalization. The Case Study of Thai Migrants

International migration facilitated by contemporary globalization has brought about feelings of insecurity in terms of identity for both the host societies as well as incoming immigrants posing a major obstacle in host countries to integrate immigrants into society. In such context, social exclusion and discrimination can occur. The author argues that this is not a one-directional process. In orde
