Detta arbete sammanställer den prekambriska berggrunden och dess geologiska utvecklingshistoria i nordvästra Skåne. Studien baseras främst på SGUs berggrundskartor som benämns Af. 148 Helsingborg NO och Af. 180 Helsingborg SO samt tillhörande berggrundsbeskrivningar. Berggrunden inom det studerade området har bildats under regionala geologiska processer och dessa beskrivs it ett bredare perspektiv
Labour markets in Europe are changing from permanent employment to more flexible structures. Atypical work such as temporary work become more prevalent. In Germany, there is a high share of temporary work contracts within social work. The aim of this study was to understand what temporary employment means for the employees and which effect it has on the lives of the employees. The chosen method fo
Utifrån vandringar och undersökningar skapas ett lokalt förankrat konstnärsresidens i vilket man som konstnär och besökare har goda möjligheter att bygga vidare på den karaktär som mittskåne erbjuder. Inspiration har hämtats från lokala författare och diktare men också från bygden i sig. Frostavallen, vilket valet av site föll på, har ett rikt förflutet och en unik historia. Genom det här projekteBased on hikes and research an artist residency is created where one as a visitor or artist have a good prospect of creating something within the unique character of mittskåne. Inspiration has been found in local authors and poets but also from the area itself. Frostavallen, which became the site of this project, has a rich and very interesting past. Through this project I hope to revitalise the a
Att näringsidkare behandlar enskilda individers personuppgifter till ändamål för att individanpassa marknadsföring genom elektronisk väg får anses vara vanligt i dagens digitaliserade samhälle. Personuppgifter har fått ett eget kommersiellt värde och kan ses som en tillgång som bland annat genererar intäkter och konkurrensfördelar. Det är dock viktigt att individer får det skydd som krävs för att Personal data has an inherent commercial value and can be seen as an asset that generates revenue and competitive advantages. It is important that individuals receive the necessary protection for their personal data so that it is not used or processed in ways that are not legally compatible. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) creates protection for individuals by informing organizations
This paper assesses the effectiveness of foreign aid in reducing poverty and increasing HDI by analysing three different types of aid; bilateral, multilateral and NGO aid. While there have been several papers that have studied the differences between bilateral and multilateral aid and their effectiveness, such studies have not included NGO aid. In addition, research on what impact foreign aid has
Ecological rehabilitation projects - as a form of reforestation interventions - are increasing worldwide and present an opportunity for climate change mitigation and supporting local livelihoods. Implemented in post-conflict situations, they are increasingly promoted as solutions for peace. Aiming at understanding their contributions to sustainability and peacebuilding, I examine proposed rehabili
Shale gas extraction commonly known as fracking had support from the UK government with their ‘all out for shale’ policy. Despite this industry has struggled to establish itself mainly due to strong opposition from communities concerned about environmental and health impacts. Most research into the impacts of fracking is concerned with either environmental degradation or physical health impacts wh
Amidst global warming, perturbed ecosystems and an ever-diminishing fossil feedstock, a paradigm shift toward renewable and sustainable plastics have emerged. Significant advances have been made in the past decade and several green polymers have entered the market. Much attention has been focused on the catalytic conversion of lignin, as it represents the largest source of renewable platform chemi
Ecological compensation builds on the idea of substitutability, meaning that destroyed values can be replaced or substituted with new values that are equal to the ones lost. Through this equivalence between “lost” and “gained” values compensation is meant to allow dynamic economic development without causing irreversible biodiversity loss. Compensation is increasingly used as a means to reduce the
The development of new sequencing methods requires new computational pipelines to handle and analyse raw data. One recently developed method is Breaks Labelling In Situ and Sequencing (BLISS), which localise and quantifies DNA double-strand breaks (DSB). Coupling this technique, with RNA sequencing, the interaction of gene expression and accumulation of DSBs can be studied. The RNA-BLISS data anal
Certain retinal diseases that result in partial or complete visual loss due to the death of photoreceptor cells. These diseases can affect all ages, accounting for a significant fraction of blindness among younger adults in the developed world. Currently, no effective cure for these diseases exists. As they kill photoreceptors but leave the remaining retina and visual pathways comparatively intact
Cell death is an important field of biology that is linked to many other topics in medicine and biology. One of the methods to investigate cell death is through high content screening (HCS) which makes use of robotic microscopy. By this technology, cell death associated organelle membrane permeabilisation and the localisation of certain dyes can be visualised and elucidate a substantial amount of
Our oceans are filling up with plastic waste and this fact became the main inspiration for this project. I think it is important that us humans question our consumption and usage of plastic. A way to diminish the amount of plastics ending up in the ocean and nature is through a change in our behaviour and our habits. A lot of the plastics come from using single-use plastics and throwing it away. O
As the clock ticks on our opportunity to limit catastrophic climate change, mitigation efforts are becoming increasingly essential, especially amongst countries with high current or historic emissions. However, these mitigation attempts are not a guaranteed success, especially when the system within which they operate is not understood due to unacknowledged bias in quantitative data. As such, wick
The South Korean boycott movement of Japan that emerged over the summer of 2019 represents a drastic decline in Japan-South Korea relations. This thesis focused on how the boycott movement was framed in the five big national Japanese newspapers over a 50-day period in August and September 2019 in order to understand how the Japanese press constructs South Korean identity vis-àvis Japan. Drawing on
The main purpose of this was to examine the current Chinese satirical/political cartoons by studying anti-corruption cartoons. Also, to answer the question from an online discussion about “whether there are satirical cartoons (讽刺漫画) in China today”. The study follows the concept of political cartoons as a medium of politics and society. The information and the hidden meaning of the cartoons are ex
Japanese labor unions have the last many decades experienced diminishing union density and loss of political power. In contrast, the group of workers who have part-time or limited contracts, so-called non-regular workers, has simultaneously grown. Meanwhile, Japanese LGBTQ people are overrepresented within non-regular work, the same workers who often cannot join unions, due to a union culture of m
The SDGs provide a global policy framework for regulatory actions at national, regional and international levels. However, when it comes to how to locally implement these goals it is important to understand the context of the local reality. This paper has two objectives. It seeks to critically analyse how the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) goals are framed by civil society organizations (CSO
