This paper explores whether Article 11 TFEU, requiring that ‘[e]nvironmental protection requirements must be integrated into the definition and implementation of the Union’s policies and activities, in particular with a view to promoting sustainable development’ provides an environmental right within the EU’s constitutional setting. After setting out relevant features of rights and environmental r

Though perpetuating mThis article deals with narratives of rape in Swedish newspapers between 1990 and 2015. Though perpetuating myths and stereotypes about rape, rapists and rape victims, the main argument is that the narratives of rape in the news are diverse. This diversity is analysed in terms of different genres—narratives of “the lonely pervert”; “the sex slavery rape”; “the celebrity rape”; and “the suburb rape

In the summer of 1922, fieldwork was conducted in the Tornedalen district of northern Sweden, in the immediate vicinity of the border with Finland. Three young men travelled together through the district on a motorcycle, documenting archaic buildings and villages in words and images. This documentation effort was part of a larger endeavour to survey and collect all the different aspects of what wa

Increased greening, higher vegetation productivity, and shrubification have been observed in Arctic tundra in response to recent warming. Such changes have affected the near‐surface climate through opposing biogeophysical feedbacks (BF) associated with changes to albedo and evapotranspiration. However, the likely spatiotemporal variations of BF to future climate change and the consequences for Arc

Terrestrial carbon (C) cycling in high Arctic tundra depends on ecosystem responses toclimatic warming and concurrent changes in environmental conditions. There are very few studies toquantify long-term C budget in high Arctic tundra due to lack of sufficient measurements. Here based onwell-established multiyear measurements, we calibrated a process-oriented model (CoupModel) to quantifyvarious com

PURPOSE: To study newly diagnosed glaucoma patients given mono- or multi-therapy regarding differences in initial intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction, target IOP levels reached and influence of untreated baseline IOP on IOP reduction.METHODS: Patients newly diagnosed with manifest primary open-angle glaucoma and included in the Glaucoma Intensive Treatment Study (GITS) were randomized to immediat

Vi kryllar av bakterier. De bor framför allt i vår tjocktarm där de lever på de delar av vår mat som vi inte kan ta hand om själva. I utbyte omvandlar bakterierna en del av maten de äter till vitaminer och fettsyror som är viktiga för oss. Det bor flera olika arter av bakterier i vår tarm som äter lite olika saker, eftersom det är ont om mat för så många har de flesta specialiserat sig för att minHuman gut bacteria utilise different types of polysaccharides present in our diet. One of these polysaccharides is galactomannan. Many organisms in the phylum Bacteroidetes have gene clusters encoding for all proteins required for hydrolysis, binding and transport of one type of polysaccharide, called polysaccharide utilisation loci (PULs). A PUL from the human gut bacterium Bacteroides ovatus was

The genera Coppinsiella and Seawardiella are described based on the combined phylogenetic analysis from ITS nrDNA, 28S nrLSU and 12S mtSSU sequences. The affinities of the new genera Orientophila, Athallia, Flavoplaca and Calogaya are discussed.

Even though there is persuasive evidence to support the association between income distribution and health, research in the field is still progressing. There are questions, for instance, about the significance of the association in different countries and about the mechanisms linking income distribution and health. Addressing these issues, this doctoral thesis explores the influence of income dist

An experimental setup for microwave stimulation of a turbulent flame is presented. A low-swirl flame is being exposed to continuous microwave irradiation inside an aluminum cavity. The cavity is designed with inlets for laser beams and a viewport for optical access. The aluminum cavity is operated as a resonator where the microwave mode pattern is matched to the position of the flame. Two metal me

Generaliserad tillit till andra människor är både en individuell psykologisk egenskap och en kollektiv egenskap hos sociala kontexter/samhällen. Vissa författare betraktar tillit som en aspekt av socialt kapital. Tillit formas genom vänskapliga relationer, ömsesidighet, ömsesidig hjälp, jämlika relationer, samarbete och optimism och jämlikhet och religion under tonåren och vuxenlivet. Speciellt mi

Inspired by Putnam’s study of Italy, this chapter develops applications that test the issue of social capital and health in the context of social epidemiology. Three central concepts are explained. The chapter attends to the technical issues, including, for example, the portion of children in subgroups identifying conflicts. The author then comes to his main message: the value of longitudinal expe
