Life-sciences have developed at a rapid pace during recent years. From experiments investigating single molecules such as proteins or single genes to large scale projects mapping entire organisms in one single experiment. However, data generated from this kind of large scale projects need to be interpreted and integrated with the base of prior knowledge in an efficient, reliable and correct way. T
This paper is about our relation to the physical book in our homes, the use and how we choose to store it, and the use of it in libraries with focus both on the visitors and the libraries itself. For a closer loook about the physical books status, the theoretic aspects is used for at look at the physical books as a product for our way to preciate the book, booth by economy and personal relations.
The thesis investigates how a norm-critical perspective on learning can impact the architectural design, and the aim is not to challenge the school as a form but to mediate a more supportive learning environment. The norm-critical, feminist and public pedagogy highlights the necessity of change towards collective learning with the individual in mind that includes introvert and extrovert personalit
Melanin is a group of pigments present in almost all kingdoms of life. It has many interesting properties such as high fossilizing potential and the ability to chelate metals. The binding of metal ions is believed to have two major functions within biological systems: metal reservoir and metal scavenger. However, eumelanin’s chemical structure is still unknown and there is a knowledge gap regardin
In the last couple of decades, it has become apparent in ecology that community structure can be governed by both local (e.g. abiotic and biotic filtering) and regional processes (e.g. dispersal) – known as Metacommunity theory. However, management and restoration projects have lagged, still mostly focusing on the local environment for the benefit of certain species or communities – leading to fai
This study aimed to examine how pocket parks should be designed in order to promote visits from the inhabitants in Malmö, as well as which of six design is the best from an ecological perspective. By examining these two aspects the goal was to identify how a pocket park can be designed to work as a multifunctional place in the city. Firstly, a literature study was carried out in order to identify
Green Roofs (GRs) have been used worldwide as a solution for greening cities, while providing useful services to society such as storm water management, improved air quality, energy savings, and increased biodiversity, to name a few. However, the environmental impact of their structure has been understudied, and more importantly, the carbon cost related to the use of materials that have a high car
Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om företag inom besöksnäringen använder sig av mitigation policyer och CSR vid utveckling av sina hållbarhetsstrategier. Undersökningen behandlar vilken betydelse samverkan har på en lokal nivå vid implementering av företags inom besöksnäringens hållbarhetsstrategier, som CSR och mitigation policyer, och hur detta kan bidra till företags hållbarhetsarbete. För
According to the UNESCO, the COVID-19 outbreak has forced millions of students to take virtual classes. For that reason, more than 80% of Higher Education institutions expect a big disruption in the sector in the next five years and 60% of them in the next 24 months (Holon IQ,2020). In Colombia, the big disruption is much needed. Currently, Physical Higher Education holds the lead regarding the pe
Cultural differences in emotion recognition have been found numerous times in the literature, especially when emotions are presented in social context (Masuda, 2017). However, we need to find a socioecological difference that explains such differences as current theoretical viewpoints fail to explain why these differences only arise later in life. This study aims to see if friendship habits, how w
Många läroböcker i Moderna språk innehåller stora delar historia, vilket tycks svara mot en idé om att eleverna ska lära sig om t.ex. Frankrikes historia när de studerar franska, trots att ingenting sägs om detta i Skolverkets läroplan. Denna uppsats undersöker utifrån ett bildningsperspektiv klyftan mellan styrdokument och den verklighet som läroböckerna utgör. Syftet är att, genom en jämförande
This thesis has attempted to show the process of transformation from the developmental state in South Korea and Taiwan since the 1990s on the perspective of the four main elements of the developmental state in strong capacity of state, coherent bureaucracy, government-business coalition and industrial policy. Based on these four dimensions, the thesis investigated the evolved process from the deve
Tatrabergen, som ligger i västra delen av Karpaterna, har upplevt flera nedisningar under kvartärtiden. Avsättningarna i sluttningarna längs bergens södra sida har klassificerats som glacifluviala, baserat på geomorfologi, men har inte undersökts i detalj tidigare. Det här projektet fokuserar därför på att etablera avsättningshistoria och -processer samt avlagringarnas ålder i ett grustag i Biely The Tatra Mountains have had several glaciations during the Quaternary. The deposits located in the southern foothills were classified as glacifluvial, based on geomorphology, but its sediments have not been studied in detail. Therefore, this project focused on establishing the depositional history, processes, and age of the deposits in a gravel pit, located in the Biely Váh valley in these foothi
With a mission to reduce the dependency of fossil-based plastics, the collaboration company to this master thesis project has developed and patented a technology that enables plastic production from wood fibers. The fibers of the company have been chemically treated in order to be more “plastic like” and thereby easier to mix and disperse with conventional or biobased plastics, to create a granula
Purpose: The aim of this dissertation is to explore mobility in a proximity tourism context. Mobilities are being widely discussed in connection to society, everyday life, and tourism as a whole. Thus, it focuses on the staycation phenomenon as a case of proximity tourism. In particular on its representations in the digital media and as a local travel practice in Sweden. Considering that tourism i
Sverige har satt upp mål om att bli fossilfritt till år 2030. Detta mål avses uppnås genom politisk styrning och riskhantering, bland annat genom en nära 90 procentig förnyelse av den svenska fordonsflottan. Denna reglering påverkar både individen och samhället. Becks (2000) begrepp risksamhället beskriver ett samhälle vars främsta syfte är att hantera abstrakta risker till följd av industrialiser
In this thesis determinants of distributed PV uptake in Brazil are estimated over a period from 2012 to 2019. To provide a deeper inside into the distributed PV market, a municipality-based panel regression is used to estimate determinants of PV consumer units and installed potential. The results indicate that most PV systems are located in the South and Southeast of the country, where PV potentia

I min hemstad Lidköping ligger ett av nordens största torg; Nya Stadens torg. Torgets och stadens historia är starkt sammankopplat med marknadstraditioner men också med en barock greve som ville bygga en stad i tidens ideal. Idag pågår det torghandel på onsdagar och lördagar på torget, men bortsett från de torgdagarna och vissa större event, står torget oftast tomt och öde. Vad som skulle kunna h
