Syftet med denna rapport och vägledning är att beskriva ett arbetssätt, Områdesbaserad risk- och sårbarhetsanalys (ORSA), för kommuner och andra aktörer som vill använda geografisk information och analys som stöd och utveckling av sitt RSA-arbete.

Erythrocytes (red blood cells) are known to produce large amounts of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). It has recently become clear that the ATP-release is part of a mechanism controlling the dilation of the body’s blood vessels. The study of the erythrocyte’s behaviour is complicated by the fact that they respond easily to any physical contact. In this paper we propose a new method for studying the d

EPR studies suggest that most transition atom impurities in silicon occupy the tetrahedral interstitial (Ti) site, preserving the Td symmetry of the host (1). The authors give, within the local-density approximation, a unified description of the electronic structure and `breathing-mode' relaxation of tetrahedral interstitial Cr, Mn, Fe, Co and Ni impurities in bulk silicon.(7 refs)

The article investigates the notion of 'Christian Europe' by tracing some of its ideological roots. In particular, it engages with the Romantic era of German philosophy. If the idea of Europe from its very earliest stage was closely linked to Christianity, this gesture also became an important element in the attempts of a number of Romantic poets and philosophers to seek the foundations for a new

(2 uppl.) The biblical figures have stimulated the creative imagination of a wide variety of writers and composers during the past two millennia. This study surveys the reception history in poetry, novels, art and music of a number of biblical figures, e.g. Cain, Abel, Abraham, Isaac, Miriam, the poor widow (Mark 12:41-44), Peter, Judas and Barabbas. The book discusses the interpretations of the

Biografisk artikel om lundastudenten, läraren, astronomen och filmentreprenören Karl Oskar Krantz (1867-1933) som exempel på en tidig representant för entreprenörskap och livslångt lärande.

Den politiska debatten har i flera år kretsat kring frågan om det finns en brist på finansieringsmöjligheter för de små företagen. Ett stort antal olika finansieringsåtgärder har införts med motiveringar som att de behövs för att skapa större risktagande, att det saknas finansiering i s.k. tidiga faser, samt att bristen på eget genererat kapital i Sverige kräver speciella insatser. Denna diskussio

Urban communities will face increased risks, such as floods, landslides, heat stress and fires and water scarcity, as a consequence of climate change. The latest IPCC report (AR5) has for the first time devoted a whole chapter to urban areas. The assessment stresses the need to tackle urban risk through more effective adaptation planning.
