Planetary boundary layer height measurements in a rural environment in southern Sweden - Relation to meteorological parameters and aerosol particle concentrations

The aim of this project is to analyse planetary boundary layer height (BLH) measurements from the Hyltemossa research station and find their dependence on seasonality, time of day, and air temperature. Further, investigation was made into the correlation between mass concentration of particulate matter with equivalent diameter<1μm (PM1) and black carbon (BC) aerosol and the BLH and how this varies

How Can CSR Give a Competitive Advantage in Accordance with the CSR Stage Model? A comparison between the Swedish company MAX and the American company McDonald's CSR strategies

The purpose of the thesis is to analyse how a CSR strategy can create a competitive advantage using the CSR Stage Model in a comparison between MAX and McDonald's. It was found that a majority of consumers value a fast-food restaurant’s CSR work and take that into consideration when choosing between restaurants.

Psychological Safety and Team Effectiveness – A Quantitative Study of IT Teams from Sweden and The United States

The modern economy has put an emphasis on team-led work in both large- and small-scale projects. This has led to ways to maximize the effectiveness of teams, with an increasing focus being put on one key concept: psychological safety. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between psychological safety and team effectiveness through the use of a cross-sectional study design on an IT p

Evaluating Sentinel-2 based phenology and productivity data for crop monitoring in Swedish agricultural fields

Högupplöst satellitdata erbjuder intressanta möjligheter för jordbrukssektorn och för precisionsodling. Sentinel-2 är ett jordobservationssystem som med sin höga rumsliga upplösning (10x10m) möjliggör analyser även inom jordbruksfält. En produkt framställd från Sentinel-2 är fenologi och produktivitetsdata från High-Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP). HR-VPP är en produkt meSentinel-2 based data provides interesting opportunities for land monitoring and applications in agriculture. High-Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP) is derived from Sentinel-2 data and offers up to 13 metrics. These metrics have a high spatial resolution (10x10m) and enables the possibility for in-field agricultural monitoring. The aim of this study is to evaluate four of t

Integration of Alkaline electrolysers with District Heating Networks in Sweden

Abstract Hydrogen as an alternative energy carrier has been up for discussion over decades. Perhaps this time, however, the political momentum and global technical context could be advantageous enough for the hydrogen economy to finally materialize. Despite investments from the EU commission up to €470 billion in renewable hydrogen, there are economical challenges in the way of decarbonisation of

Materiality and Brand Discursivity: Study case on commodities and discursive practices in the Swedish market.

This thesis analyzes the link between materiality and brand discursiveness. This study examines how material culture contributes to brand narratives' meaning and symbolic construction. For this purpose, the creation of commodities with metal obtained from molten guns is analyzed through a discursive analysis and anthropological theory. This research describes how the brands analyzed deploy dis

BVOC emission variability for Norway spruce (Picea abies) in Hyltemossa, Sweden

Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) are known as hydrocarbons emitted into the atmosphere from the biosphere. They have physiological and ecological functions such as communication within the plant and plant – plant, protection against environmental stress factors and defense against herbivores attack. Coniferous forests are known to produce larger quantities of BVOCs, especially terpenes,

Should motherhood have an upper age limit, and if so, would that constitute age discrimination? - A contextual analysis of artificial reproduction and age in the Swedish healthcare system -

Artificial insemination using the husband's sperm (AIH) and artificial insemination using sperm from a donor (AID) are artificial techniques which have been used for a long time, however, other forms of artificial procreation such as, in vitro fertilization (IVF), egg donation, embryo donation, and surrogacy are seen as truly modern reproductive techniques and did not come into use until the m

The relationship between leniency programmes and action for damages - A Comparative study in the competition laws of the European communities, Sweden and the U.S.

Offentligrättsliga sanktioner av EU:s konkurrensrätt är ett välutvecklat område. Detsamma gäller dock inte för civilrättsliga sanktioner. Kommissionen har antagit en Grönbok, som beskriver flera problem som behöver lösas för att uppnå att privata sanktioner i framtiden fungerar som ett naturligt komplement till de offentligrättsliga. Skadeståndsanspråk framförs i nationell domstol i en medlemsstat

EC State Aid Rules on Broadband Deployment in Rural Areas - Implementation and Functioning in Sweden

Den här uppsatsen handlar om EG-rättens inställning till statsstöd som ges till bredbandsutbyggnad i glesbygd. Syftet är att undersöka huruvida gemenskapsrätten tillåter att enskilda medlemsstater beviljar statsstöd till bredbandsprojekt, och i så fall under vilka förutsättningar stödet anses vara förenligt med EG-rätten. Fokus ligger på situationen i Sverige, satt i relation till EU15. Tillgång t
