Av de nästan 200 blottningarna av vulkaniska bergarter som kan ses i Central Skåne Volcanic Province (CSVP) består endast tre av vulkanoklastiskt material. Stratigrafin i dessa avlagringar vars förhållande till underliggande urberg har för första gången beskrivits i en borrkärna (KBH2) från Djupadalsmölla för att bestämma stratigrafin samt avsättningsprocessen, åldern och avsättningsmiljön. BorrkäFrom the almost 200 volcanic outcrops in the Central Skåne Volcanic Province (CSVP), only three are of volcaniclastic material. These volcanoclastics, and the transition to the underlying crystalline basement, have been investigated for the first time in a drill core (KBH2) from Djupadalsmölla in order to understand the stra-tigraphy, depositional process, age of deposition, and depositional envir

Why is Sweden plagued the most of right-wing terror and violence in comparison to its Nordic neighbors? This thesis explores the possible motive and opportunity for right-wing terror and violence between 1990 and 2015, by using new empirical data provided from the Center for Research and Extremism (C-REX). The cases of Sweden and Denmark are scrutinized through the lens of their respective economi

Using the most recent data from 1996 to 2016, I examine the more current relationship between housing wealth and private consumption. I extend the Life-Cycle Hypothesis and separate wealth into housing wealth from financial wealth. The main method em-ployed is the Engle-Granger two-step method. Combined with the use of quarterly data, the method allows investigation of the long-term and short-term

The aim with this thesis is to broaden the understanding of relations surrounding climate change in small-scale private forestry in Sweden by present results from an fieldwork study of a small sample of private forest owners in the south of Sweden. The thesis shows how forest owners are situated within socio-ecological, and political contexts that affect their possibilities to cope with, and shape

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether factor augmented vectorautoregression (FAVAR) models estimated using principal component analysis are able to improve monthly inflation rate forecasts for Sweden. We produce 42 forecasts for the period January 2012 to June 2015 and evaluate the forecasts by their root mean square errors as well as their ability to correctly predict the sign of t

The purpose of this thesis is to analytically examine and investigate if male and female have no meaning with regards to the County Administrative Courts descriptions and assessments in cases regarding the Care of Abusers (special provision) Act (LVM). It is to investigate if notions of gender are expressed in these LVM-cases, and if so, how are they expressed and how can we understand these expre

Cities affected by the impacts of climate change have to find new ways to adapt to the variability in weather patterns, such as heavy rainfalls and storms. The coastal city Malmö, a former industrial city, aims to be carbon neutral by 2020 and provided by 100 percent renewable energies in 2030. However, Malmö is facing many environmental and socio-economic challenges. One of these challenges is to

Giftigt lakvatten skadar småkryp Vattnet är turkos-färgat och innehåller giftigt höga halter av metaller, så småningom fälls metallerna ut och bildar en orange sörja som lägger sig som en kvävande filt över allt i vattnet. Livet är inte lätt för vattenlevande småkryp i Fredriksdalsviken. En rejäl översvämning år 2007 i Kristianstad fick missfärgat vatten att välla ut över strandängarna i naturresThe leaching of metals caused by drainage of peatland soils was, in Scania, brought to attention after a flood in Kristianstad 2007. The flood caused large areas of wet meadows to be covered in iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al) contaminated water and one of the affected areas was Fredriksdalsviken, a nature reserve important as a breeding area for birds. The negative effects of these metals on macroinve

Kreditsäkerheter i fartyg kan upplåtas genom ett flertal olika konstruktioner. Denna uppsats avhandlar tre utav dessa varianter; sjöpanträtt i fartyg, retentionsrätt och ägarförbehåll till helt fartyg. Sjöpanträtt i fartyg är en legal panträtt som i princip inte kan upplåtas genom avtal. Sjöpanträtt uppkommer som en giltig sakrätt endast för sådan skada som har ett direkt samband med fartygets veCredit securities in ships can be provided for by several different constructions. This thesis focuses on three of these varieties; maritime liens in ships, right to retention and title reservations in ships. Maritime liens in ships is a legally granted right that principally cannot be obtained by contractual agreements. Maritime liens evolve as a valid right in rem only for such situations speci
