Microscopic echinoderm remains from the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) of Västergötland, Sweden - faunal composition and applicability as environmental proxies

Mikroskopiska echinodermfossil har undersökts ur prover från täljstensintervallet och intillig-gande delar av ’lanna’- och ’holenkalkstenen’ i Hällekis stenbrott, Västergötland. Den undersökta sektionen är från översta volkhov och mellersta kunda, darriwilian (mellanordovicium). Tidigare studier har konkluderat att en regression/transgression skedde under den undersökta perioden, vilket bekräftas

Does Mr Anderson have a jobafter the military has left? -An investigation on unemployment rate in Swedish muncipalities aftected by a military base closure.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if a military base closure has any effects on unemployment in the affected municipality. In this study military base has been viewed as a cluster for the municipality where resources, infrastructure and employment in the municipality are drawn to maintain the base. When a shutdown happens they are viewed as a negative exogenous shock for the municipality

The effects of site preparation on carbon fluxes at two clear-cuts in southern Sweden

Popular science The carbon balance of the forest ecosystems is determined by the uptake and release of carbon. Forests take up carbon dioxide (CO2) by photosynthesis and release by respiration. One part of the assimilated carbon is respired back to the atmosphere by vegetation. The other part is respired by soil microbes which decompose organic material in soil. The microbial respiration is contro

Investigation of a landfill leachate treatment plant in southern Sweden

Behandling av lakvatten inom avfallsdeponierna Syftet med projektet var att utvärdera den faktiska lakvattenreningskapaciteten inom Hedeskogas avfallsanläggning, Skånes län. Målet var även att mäta eventuell bakterieaktivitet i dess dammar, i vilka lakvattnet hanteras. Men vad är då lakvatten? Lakvatten produceras varje gång vatten infiltreras genom ämnen samt när olika sorters substanser samlas

Developing a Pedestrian Route Network Service (PRNS)

Navigeringstjänster blir allt mer populära, men även om det finns en betydande mängd tjänster, finns det fortfarande begränsningar, speciellt för fotgängare. Fotgängare gör dagligen flera val om hur de ska hitta den bästa vägen i sin närmiljö. Att utveckla en navigeringstjänst för gående (PRNS) involverar flera viktiga faktorer. I denna studie analyseras flera befintliga nättjänster och studien viRoute network service is becoming increasingly popular. However, although there are significant amount of route network services there are still limitations especially to pedestrian network services. Pedestrians daily make decision about their navigation choices. Developing a pedestrian route network service (PRNS) involves several factors. During this study the analysis of several routing network

An Investigation of Swedish Aid Discourse on Sustainable Development

This study begins in the understanding of sustainable development as a complex matter open for interpretation, and continues in the notion that different dimensions of sustainability create different values that have different goals; meaning that they will sometimes unite, and sometimes collide and lead to trade-offs. The aim for this study is to add to the understanding of this matter through an

Schematic representation of the geographical railway network used by the Swedish Transport Administration

Idag vill man effektivisera användningen av geografiska informationssystem (GIS), vilket uppmuntrar järnvägsförvaltningarna att centralisera sina data. Därför hämtar de både geografiska och schematiska framställningar från samma databas. Men, en svårighet som möter Trafikverket är att olika representationer (geografiska och schematiska) måste uppdateras separat, vilket innebär större kostnader ochToday, one of the needs of the railway information systems is sharing the precise and exact data among varieties of stakeholders. In addition, efficient use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) encourages the railways administrations to centralize their data and prepare an information model whose purpose is to reduce the demands associated with the transformation of the data. One such reducti

Criteria, approaches and key enablers for a segmented supply chain – a study of Swedish industrial manufacturing companies

Problem definition: Supply chain segmentation is a topic which in later years has received increasing attention from supply chain managers of companies in industrial settings. To members of the supply chain research community the ideas and theoretical contributions underlying the concept of supply chain segmentation are hardly new, but have evolved ever since the beginning of the 1990s. However, a

Immigrants' Political Representation in Canada and Sweden: A Comparative Case Study

The increasing trends of immigration in the affluent North nation-states from the global South has led to the growing awareness of the problem of immigrants' political integration and their resulting participation in the existing political systems of this nation.The importance of this subject is underscored by the challenges posed to the established understanding of nation and citizenship, on

Management of Morphology: An investigation of the oikonomia of the Swedish horse breeding apparatus between 1874-1940

In this foucauldian inspired study I understand the kind of animal body that breeding practices produces based on Nicole Karafyllis concept biofact, which is defined by her as something or someone, whose growth is controlled and thus no longer self-determined. This leads to the question how, what Giorgio Agamben calls the oikonomia of apparatus governed the morphological changes that occurred in t

Biological control of rosy apple aphid (Dysaphis plantaginea) sentinel colonies and the natural enemy community associated with it: the effects of two management systems in Swedish apple orchards

Naturliga fiender för bladlöss i äppelodlingar Det finns en stor mångfald av insekter i vår omgivning. De insekter som man främst kanske tänker på är de olika skadeinsekter som finns i jordbrukslandskapet. Det här är kanske främst påtagligt för olika jordbrukare som får handskas med flera olika skadeinsekter innan de kan bärga sin skörd, men alla som har odlat något har troligen haft något probleSociety has become more aware of how overuse of chemical compounds in agriculture can affect the environment causing negative effects to ecosystem services. Due to this awareness, in recent years new regulation of pesticide use has been developed and some pesticides have been banned. With the new regulation, alternative methods of pest control have been advised which may also be easier to implemen

Identification and environmental interpretation of microtextures on quartz grains from aeolian sediments : Brattforsheden and Vittskövle, Sweden

Mikrotexturer är mikrometerstora avtryck på kvartskornens ytor samt på korn med andra mineralogiska egenskaper. Kvartskorn, som förekommer i de flesta sedimentära miljöer, innehåller mikrotexturer som undersöks särskilt på grund av kvartsmineralets unika mineralogiska egenskaper som möjliggör bevarandet av mikrotexturer genom olika miljöer. I denna studien är mikrotexturer en viktig källa för att Microtextures are micrometer-sized imprints on the surfaces of quartz grains and on grains with other mineralogical compositions. Quartz grains, which occur in most sedimentary environments, contain microtextures which are especially studied due to quartz unique mineralogical properties allowing for preservation of microtex-tures through different environments. In this study, microtextures are an

Parenting and Work. A comparative study between Sweden and Macedonia.

De lagar som finns gällande föräldraledighet påverkar arbetsmarknaden genom att sätta normer för arbetande föräldrar. De reglerar inte bara hur mycket och under hur lång tid en arbetande förälder kan vara ledig, utan bidrar också till den generella synen på könsrollerna i samhället och med det även synen på vem som är den primära föräldern. Den konservativa uppfattningen av modern som den huvudsakThe existing parenting protection legislation affects the labour market by setting standards for working parents. This to make sure they have the right to leave in order to take care of their children. These laws regulate not only the time frame and the days allowed for leave, but also contribute to the general view on gender roles and views on which parent is the primary one. The conservative per
