Popular Abstract in Swedish Skogar är av stor betydelse ur klimatsynpunkt på grund av deras stora förmåga att binda kol. Skogar på de nordligare breddgraderna spelar en viktig roll med sitt stora kolupptag, men eftersom dessa nordliga skogar troligen kommer att påverkas av klimatförändringarna i hög grad är det osäkert hur framtida kolupptag kommer att utvecklas. Ett varmare klimat kommer sannolikForests are of major importance to climate change mitigation due to their strong capacity to sequester carbon. Nearly half of the terrestrial carbon is stored in forests, and forests contribute to half of the terrestrial primary productivity, with forests in the mid- and high latitude ecosystems as major contributors. These high latitude forests are, however, projected to be strongly influenced by

Today embedded system development is a complex task. To aid the engineers new methodologies and languages are emerging. During the development the system is modeled using different tools and languages. Transformations between the models are traditionally done manually. We investigate the automation of this process, specifically we are looking at automatic UML to SystemC transformation. In this pap

Expression microarray analysis identified over 930 genes regulated during puberty in the mouse mammary gland. Most prominent were genes whose expression increased in parallel with pubertal development and remained high thereafter. Members of the Wnt, transforming growth factor-beta and oestrogen-signalling pathways were significantly overrepresented. Comparison to expression data from CITED1 knock

Laboratory analyses of the potsherds from Hellum, Barmer and Kragelund were performed in order to study the manufacturing techniques at the different sites. During the planning of the project it was suggested that the reconstructed pots to be fired in the kilns should not only have a shape resembling the original products, but also have a raw material composition as similar as possible to the medi

Kopplingen mellan design, hållbarhet och delaktighet har kommit att bli allt starkare i samhället. Till stor del beror det på att större förhoppningar ställs till arkitektur, form och design för att uppnå ökad sammanhållning, inkludering och tillgänglighet för alla människor i samhället (Kulturdepartementet 2015). Genom att ratificera FN:s konvention om rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsät

Aerosolsammansättningen i ett renluftsområde i Mellansverige (Velen) har studerats under en årscykel. Aerosolpartiklarna har uppdelats efter aerodynamisk storlek i 7 fraktioner. Varje fraktion från 113 provtagningstillfällen har analyserats m a p svavel och tungmetaller m h a partikelinducerad röntgenstrålning s k PIXE-analys. Resultaten påvisar variationer i ämneskoncentrationer mellan enskilda m

Denna bok handlar om ett förändringsprojekt vid Lunds universitet som syftade till att förkorta studietiderna utan att kandidat- och magisteruppsatsernas vetenskapliga kvalitet påverkades negativt. Det omedelbara resultatet blev att andelen uppsatser som blev färdiga inom föreskriven tidsram ökade från under 10 % till över 50 % samtidigt som deras vetenskapliga kvalitet inte försämrades. I boken b

Lao PDR has shown a strong record of economic growth and poverty alleviation since the early 1990s. Yet, the pace of economic development has varied significantly between different parts of the country - the rate of growth was initially faster in more developed areas, but after the mid-1990s growth has been stronger in poorer rural areas. Here it is shown that this pattern of regional development

'Understanding the Arab World': This paper was presented at "Tempus Information Days" held in Stockholm, September 6-7 2006. The paper tackles the issue of misunderstanding the other and high lightens encounters between the Arab World and the West.

Studies on the emergence of the picture sign in small children Pictures take part in every day life for as well adults as for children. In interaction with children, pictures are often used to facilitate communication, but the child does not understand pictures as adults do; that is as signs. In my studies I try to approach an understanding of the child’s emergence of the picture sign. Empirical
