The INTERSPEC project, funded by a European Research Council Starting Grant, is focused on introducing a novel analytical methodology for studying single-cell scale fungal metabolism to clarify how fungal decomposition rates are affected by changing environmental (biotic and abiotic) conditions.
Soil health in Europe has reached a critical point: it is estimated that 60-70% of European soils are unhealthy. Changes in land use, its intensity and the quality of management have significant impacts on soil health and soil related ecosystem services. A systems analysis of soil health dynamics requires an understanding of the drivers inducing changes in land use and management. The DPSIR framew
The EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has been broadened over recent decades in response to evolving challenges faced by the EU and its farmers. It now claims to support not only food security and farmers’ incomes, but also transitioning to a green economy, conservation of biodiversity and climate action. We have evaluated to what extent four main types of CAP payment instruments form a cohesi
Regeneration of Norway spruce, Picea abies, forests is to a large extent depending on the production of seeds from high quality plus trees in orchards. However, the seed yield is variable and unpredictable due to weather, pest insects and diseases. Thus, more knowledge is needed to improve planning of harvest and mitigation of pests and diseases to secure future forest regeneration. In this study,
Delivering a revolution in evidence use requires a cultural change across society. For a wide range of groups (practitioners, knowledge brokers, organisations, organisational leaders, policy makers, funders, researchers, journal publishers, the wider conservation community, educators, writers, and journalists), options are described to facilitate a change in practice, and a series of downloadable
Mot bakgrund av en kontinuerligt ökande handel och konsumtion har avfallshantering blivit en av nyckelkomponenterna i det utmanande arbetet mot ett hållbart samhälle. Växthusgasbalanser är användbart i bedömningen av miljöprestandan hos verksamheter med avfallshantering, och kan därav bistå med god vägledning i verksamheternas arbete mot en minskad klimatpåverkan. Avfallsverksamheten NSR AB har vDue to the continuous increase of global trading as well as consumption habits, waste disposal has become a key factor in the challenging work of accomplishing a sustainable society. A greenhouse gas balance is a useful tool when estimating the environmental performance of a waste disposal company, and therefore contributes with guidance in the company’s environmental protection work. The waste d
Living in the Anthropocene epoch, climate change is a fact and the rising temperatures due to increasing greenhouse gases are only one of the many consequences. The carbon dioxide levels and greenhouse gases are of international concern, but something must be done on a local scale for it to be improved globally. Green areas and ecological corridors are now a modern and fashionable way of doing thi
Sammanfattning Bakgrund: Ridsport är Sveriges näst största idrott sett till antalet deltagare. Den har en hög skadefrekvens, och vanligast är fall- och krosskador. Tidigare studier har dock även visat att smärta som uppstår på grund av stressreaktioner på skelett och muskler också är vanligt förekommande bland ryttare. Inom de flesta sporter är det vanligt med kompletterande träning i förebyggande
This thesis illuminates the deliberative democratic ideal's claim for efficiency and legitimacy that is brought forward by Robyn Eckersley and John S. Dryzek as being an essential brick in the struggle for a societal development that is ecologically sustainable. The take off lies in the belief that the current liberal democracy is incapable of responding sufficiently to the ecological problems
During the last ten years several international studies and reports have paid attention to the sexual life of HIV-positive homosexual men, while in Sweden this area is unexplored and has to be investigated in the future. The lack of knowledge of the sexual life of HIV-positive homosexual men risks to stigmatize still more this group of people who are already exposed in society. The aim of the repo
This paper is written in order to study the effects which foreign direct investment firms have on developing host countries in order to find if countries' policies to actively attract FDI are a good development strategy. In order to find how FDI effects the countries are a big set of possible effects discussed and empirically tested using firm level data from 126 different developing countries
Karst är landskap och karakteristika som är viktiga både ur hydrologisk och geologisk synpunkt och som är utvecklade genom vattnets vittring av oftast karbonathaltiga stenar. Denna uppsats kartlägger världens karstområden, beskriver egenskaper av karst och karsthydrologi och strävar efter att definiera problem och möjligheter med vattenhantering i karstlandskap. Akvifärer i karst skiljer sig i månSummary: Water is, and will in the near future be even more, a key issue for the global development, and for issues concerning equal rigts for all mankind. Water is a necessity and a scarce resource in great parts of the world and it therefore exists a great need for development and management of the world’s waters. With fresh waters being increasingly accentuated for their importance in global de
The construction sector currently accounts for 41.4% of the total energy consumption in Egypt and the residential sector accounts for more than half of all electricity consumed in the country. Therefore, there is great potential for reducing electricity use. Much of the electricity is used for lighting, air conditioning and hot water, a great part of this use can be reduced by passive climate cont
Upphandlingsreglerna i Sverige vilar på en komplicerad normbakgrund bestående av Lissabonfördraget, EU:s upphandlingsdirektiv och LOU. Livsmedelsupphandlingar har i upphandlingsutredningen (SOU 2011:71) identifierats som ett särskilt problemområde och det råder en stor osäkerhet om vilka krav som är tillåtna att ställa. En stor andel livsmedelsupphandlingar har blivit överprövade och många livsmeThe procurement rules in Sweden rests on a complex standard background consisting of the Lisbon Treaty, EU procurement directives and the Swedish procurement law LOU. Food procurements have in the public procurement report (SOU 2011:71) been identified as a particular problem area and there is a great insecurity of what demands that are allowed to be set. A great number of food procurements has b
Purpose: To investigate how consumers understand free services on the Internet. Theories: The research is primarily based upon theories of gift giving. Methodology and analysis: The Internet is not a tangible marketplace and in order to understand the value of the free services online, we used consumers' behavioral accounts to explain how they perceive the free services that are common online.
