Genom att göra nödvändiga förändringar så som att renovera befintliga byggnader på ett miljösmart sätt kan energi- och miljöbesparingar göras med mer eller mindre enkla medel. I denna studie, som initierades av Trelleborgs Energi AB, undersöktes hur deras kontorsbyggnad kunde bli så innovativ, hållbar och energieffektiv som möjligt. S

Reflektionsseismik har använts i forsknings- och prospekteringsändamål sedan första halvan av 1900-talet. De moderna undersökningar som utförs idag behandlar hela datainsamlingsförloppet digitalt och färdig-behandlad data tillgängliggörs sedan för geologisk tolkning i moderna datorprogram. Det finns dock en stor före-komst av äldre seismisk reflektionsdata som sparats ned på numera omoderna formatSeismic reflection data has been collected for more than half a century for both scientific and industrial purposes. Data sampled in modern surveys are collected, processed and stored digitally. There are, however, large quantities of vintage seismic reflection data that since its original use has been stored away and remains difficult to access in its current form. This data was acquired when it

Food insecurity has proven to be a significant problem in many developing countries, which in some cases occurs due to the lack of adequate methods of preserving foods for longer periods of time.

A faulty desig
