Disturbance regimes in dry sandy grasslands – past, present and future

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sandstäpp är ett starkt hotat växtsamhälle i Sverige som består av många specialiserade och hotade arter som t.ex. sandnejlika, tofsäxing och sandliljor. Exempel på hur en sandstäpp kan se ut hittas i Figur 1 i den Engelska sammanfattningen. Sandstäpp finns på sandig mark med kalk i ytjorden och ett lågt näringsinnehåll. Den karaktäriseras av ett uppbrutet växttäcke somA number of sandy grassland habitats of interest for biodiversity conservation can be found in Europe. One such habitat is the threatened xeric sand calcareous grassland, which is home to a large number of endangered species. It is characterized by a discontinuous vegetation cover, mainly consisting of stress-tolerant species favoured by nutrient-poor and dry conditions. The xeric sand calcareous

Train drivers and fatal accidents on the rail: Psychological aspects and safety. Report 2

Lokförare är en för olyckor särskilt utsatt grupp. I genomsnitt inträffar två allvarliga olyckor i veckan på järnvägsspåren, och statistiskt sett kommer varje lokförare att vara med om minst en påkörning med dödlig utgång under sitt yrkesliv. Att vara vittne till en dödsolycka skapar i de flesta fall svår stress, och det är inte ovanligt att lokförare drabbas av långvariga, om än inte nödvändigtvi

Molecularly imprinted polymers

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are man-made polymeric materials with molecular recognition abilities. The polymers mimic the molecular recognition of natural molecular recognition elements, such as receptors and antibodies, by binding target molecules in a highly selective manner. The interactions between MIPs and their targets are of non-covalent or covalent nature, or a mixture thereof. F

The Syntax of Tenselessness: Tense/Mood/Aspect-Agreeing Infinitivals

Tense/Mood/Aspect-agreeing Infinitivals is an in-depth investigation of the syntax of verb-verb agreement phenomena in Swedish, including pseudocoordinations of the form John started and wrote 'John started writing' and double participles of the form John had been-able written 'John had been able to write'. Providing evidence from facts concerning extraction, locality, selection, and interpretatio

Characterization of a new amino acid transport system in human epidermal Langerhans cells:

Popular Abstract in Swedish Olika aspekter angående transportmekanismen för aminosyran L-dopa in i så kallade Langerhans celler (LC) i människans överhud och överhudens energimetabolism är undersökta och karaktäriserade. LC har flera olika funktioner i huden, och är en av de mest perifera delarna i vårt immunsystem mot omvärlden. Cellerna vandrar ut i huden från blodkärlssystemet. Cellerna kan äveBased on the discovery of a new amino acid transport system in Langerhans cells (LC), various aspects concerning the L-dopa uptake mechanism into human epidermal LC and the energy metabolism of epidermis have been examined and subsequently characterised. The system lacks any characteristics of other described amino acid transport systems in other cell types. The Falck/Hillarp histofluorescence met

Start-to-end simulations for a seeded harmonic generation free electron laser

This paper shows how the MAX linac injector and transport system can be efficiently retuned to suit free electron laser (FEL) performance. In a collaboration between MAX-lab and BESSY, a seeded harmonic generation free electron laser is being constructed at MAX-lab. The setup uses the existing MAX-lab facility upgraded with a new low emittance photocathode gun, a Ti∶Sa 266 nm laser system used for

Development of the combat sleeping bag system of the Latvian National Armed Forces

Latvian National Armed forces (LNAF) in cooperation with Lund University, Sweden and Riga Technical University, Latvia has developed the combat sleeping bag system (CSBS) of the LNAF under the Soldier System platform (SSP) 2009 – 2013 modernization program. Protection from the cold and thermal infrared surveillance during the low level metabolic heat rate of sleeping (40 W/m2) is the key aspect of

Implications of the social consequences of global information technology outsourcing in the USA

The transformation and movement of work opportunities is not a new phenomenon. This has been the norm in many industries, such as manufacturing, semi-conductors, clothing, etc. This is the first time, however, that so-called knowledge intensive work areas would be hit en masse, instead of low waged jobs. This has and will have a large impact on individuals, firms, and society. From a global perspe
