Over the last decade, 1.8 billion people worldwide have been affected by disasters triggered by natural hazards and 740 000 lives have been lost. Due to climate change, these numbers are predicted to rise dramatically in the upcoming years. In disaster prone areas, remote communities and lower income countries are disproportionately affected and often lack the resources to prepare. Locating victim

A cornerstone in particle physics is that of simulation. The ability to test the components of a larger experiment in a safe and cheap digital environment allows modern experiments to have an optimised setup before testing it in an expensive to use particle accelerator. In this study, variations in the configuration of the main Hadronic Calorimeter (HCal) at the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX)

This paper goes over the process of evaluating the environmental variables, which are most likely to predict the locations of prehistoric settlements in a Scanian setting. This is accomplished by selecting variables which have shown to be successful in previous similar study areas and testing the spatial correlation between each variable and known settlement presence. This is followed by an ov

This feasabilitystudie aims to investigate fidelity and effect during the implementation process of an imported intervention in Sweden. Attachment & Biobehavioral Catch-up (ABC) is a 10-session, evidence-based parenting program. The current paper describes the implementation effort, including cultural adaptation and pandemic effect of switching from physical home visiting to digital home visit

I Sverige finns en lång tradition av att bygga småhus i trä. År 2022 beräknas det byggas ca 15 000 småhus varav den absoluta majoriteten byggs i trä. Att bygga mer i trä är något som eftersträvas då det är betydligt mer klimatvänligt än andra material. För att bygga tak används oftast prefabricerade takstolar där råspont eller plywoodskivor används som undertak. Det finns ofta inget extra system fIn Sweden there is a long-standing tradition of building houses out of wood. In the year 2022 it is expected that 15 000 houses will be built, where the majority are built out of wood. There is an aim to build more out of wood since it has less impact on the climate than other materials. To build roofs prefabricated trusses are often used, and the trusses are covered by tongue and groove (t&g)

The Covid-19 pandemic has been devastating across the globe, not the least for countries already struggling with insufficient health systems and a lack of medical resources. As soon as the crisis hit vaccines started being developed and seen as a way to get out on the other side, and with new techniques multiple vaccines quickly became effective. However, the distribution of these vaccines soon be

I denna studie beskrivs och analyseras internationell adoption inom svensk nyhetsmedia. Fokuset har varit på det historiska perspektivet av internationell adoption till Sverige samt hur detta har gestaltats i svenska tidningar genom tidsspannet 1980– 2020. 73 artiklar analyserats från olika tidpunkter under de senaste 40 åren. Metoden som användes för att genomföra detta var en kvalitativ innehåll

The push for sustainable development has become a central priority of governments in recent decades, and targeted fiscal policies tailored to meet environmental problems have arisen. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic launched the world into the most significant economic recession since the Great Depression of the 1930s. This paper examines how the COVID-19 pandemic has influenced green fiscal policie

Den pågående energiomställningen har gett upphov till ett växande behov av elanslutningar och aktualiserat behovet av att anpassa elnätet genom att införa flexibilitetslösningar. Elnätsföretag har med anledning av nätkapacitetsutmaningen redan svårt att ansluta nya kunder vilket gett upphov till diskussioner kring möjligheterna att tillämpa så kallade villkorade avtal. Till skillnad från traditionGrid modernisation is a key enabler in the ongoing transition to a more sustainable energy system. As both grid connections and power consumption are foreseen to increase, the introduction of flexibility solutions is an essential supplement to network deployment. Due to the current risk of grid congestion, power utilities are experiencing difficulties in connecting new customers which has given ri

Psykologisk forskning har under de senaste årtiondena rört sig bort från att se psykopatologi som distinkta diagnostiska kategorier och istället rört sig mot en hierarkisk, dimensionell modell där en empiriskt grundad struktur bygger på gemensamma faktorer mellan psykiatriska syndrom. Nya verktyg, som den andra versionen av The Inventory of Depression and Anxiety Symptoms (IDAS- II), har utvecklatPsychological research has in the last few decades moved away from viewing psychopathology as distinct categories towards a hierarchical, dimensional model where an empirically based structure reflects the similarities among disorders. New tools, such as the second version of The Inventory of Depression and Anxiety Symptoms (IDAS-II) have been developed to capture this dimensionality. In this time

Intresset och lusten för läsning verkar ständigt avtagande och hotad. Vad kan då skolan och lärarna göra för att väcka läslust hos tonåringar idag? Syftet var att göra en jämförande fallstudie som beskriver hur två svensklärare på en högstadieskola tänker och arbetar med läsfrämjande undervisning, för att sedan jämföra de två lärarnas strategier med vad deras tonårselever tyckte fungerade läsfrämj

Tillväxten inom digital handel har bidragit till att konsumenters köpvanor har förändrats. För att överleva förändringarna har nya konsumtionsmönster bildats genom multi försäljningskanaler där verksamheter integrerar sina nuvarande försäljningskanaler med nya multikanaler såsom pop-ups. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka, besvara och identifiera digitala verksamheters möjlighet att använda

Our food is produced further and further away from us. Consequently, we have lost our connection and respect for it, resulting in unnecessary food waste. Investigating alternative methods of growing vegetables created the ambition to encourage the end consumer to self-sufficient crop production at home. Initial trend research led to the rising interest in urban farming. The world becomes

We set out to investigate whether arctic tundra acted as a sink or source of carbon dioxide (CO2) between 1980-2014 and to relate changes in the net carbon balance to Arctic sea-ice decline. We want to understand how climate change and arctic warming influence arctic carbon cycling. Identifying the ways higher temperatures affect tundra carbon cycling, one of them being the decline of sea ice, can

Syftet med detta arbete har varit att undersöka faktorer som påverkar kombinationen av fastigheter inom detaljplanerat område som är taxerade för både bostadsändamål och industriändamål. Detta har gjorts genom litteraturstudier av relevanta lagar, och förordningar, en kvantitativ undersökning av fastigheter som är taxerade för ändamålen, en intervju med fastighetsvärderare samt en analys. Under pThe purpose of this work has been to investigate properties in Skåne County, Sweden, with detailed development plans with provision that approve both industrial and residential purposes. The majority of the properties had a detailed plan that gained legal force between 1950 and 1987. During the period, industrial and residential purposes were a recommended use in the planning instructions. With t
