The lower Wenlock Hangvar Formation - a sequence previously split between the Hogklint and Slite beds (Silurian, Gotland, Sweden)

Conodont faunas solve the long-standing problem regarding the relationships between the Hogklint, Tofta, and lower Slite. The name Hangvar Formation is here formally introduced for the strata identified between the Tofta Formation and the Slite Group. The Hangvar Fm. includes marls as far SW as near Paviken (previously Slite Marl), argillaceous limestones (seen only in the most distal areas access

Thirty years of measured prestress at Swedish nuclear reactor containments

The main function of the reactor containment, i.e. to ensure tightness at a major internal accident, depends directly on the prestressing system. To secure that the prestress level is sufficient, the tendon force has been measured during the whole time of operation. The general results from these measurements show that the loss of prestress 30 years after tensioning is between 5 and 10%. This is m

Seasonal fluctuations of active fungal biomass in horizons of a podzolized pine-forest soil in central Sweden

Metabolically-active fungal biomass determined by fluorescein diacetate (FDA) staining, was studied during a 27-month period in three horizons of a podzolized pine-forest soil. Recurrent biomass peaks were registered in autumn and early spring. Biomass increase was also noted during the winter with soil temperatures below 0 deg C. Only a minor fraction (2.4-4.3%) of the total fungal biomass was ac

Social capital and leisure time physical activity: a population based multilevel analysis in Malmo, Sweden
