Even though urban cemeteries in Sweden today can be seen as making space for different memorial practices, they are also a materialization of certain cultural and religious norms (Kjaersgaard & Venbrux, 2016), which sometimes are expressed as functional and aesthetic values. In this respect, the urban cemetery has an abiding attitude to change in building on past traditions and designs to addrEven though urban cemeteries in Sweden today can be seen as making space for different memorial practices, they are also a materialization of certain cultural and religious norms (Kjaersgaard & Venbrux, 2016), which sometimes are expressed as functional and aesthetic values.

Vegetation in the subarctic is expected to respond to climate warming as its growth becomes less temperature limited. This has previously been recorded in the form of treeline advances and increasing shrub cover. Changes in vegetation cover may accelerate warming due to a decrease in summer albedo, in what is termed surface albedo feedback. A quantification of the relationship between vegetation c

Racial discrimination is one of the most fundamental forms of social inequality. It remains prevalent in major progressive democracies such as Sweden and the United States. Limited studies have examined how the two nations differ in a comparative cross-sectional design. This paper aims to understand experiences and opinions regarding ethnicity and discrimination to explore differences and similari

Studiens syfte har varit att framställa en sociologisk analys av vilken inverkan krigsutbrottet i Ukraina har haft på svenska kommuners arbetssätt. För att på ett nyanserat och välgrundat sätt svara upp till studiens frågeställningar och syfte har en kvalitativ metod i form av semistrukturerade intervjuer med kommunernas säkerhetsansvariga utförts och kommunala dokument har analyserats. Urvalet av

In 2016 a historic peace agreement between the Colombian government and the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia – People’s Army (FARC) was signed, putting an end to a conflict that lasted over 50 years. This agreement was the world’s very first gender-inclusive peace accord, meaning that they included women in the peace process and recognized how they are particularly subjected to war and confl

Akut myeloisk leukemi (AML) är en heterogen sjukdom, vilket gör den svår att behandla. Standardbehandlingen är intensiv kemoterapi och har inte förändrats på 40 år. På senare tid har nya läkemedel och mindre intensiva behandlingsregimer godkänts i USA och Europa. Fler möjliga behandlingsformer gör att det krävs prediktiva biomarkörer och tillförlitliga utvärderingsmetoder för att hitta den optimalAcute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease, making it difficult to treat. The standard treatment is intensive chemotherapy and has not changed in 40 years. However, recently new drugs and as less intensive treatment regimens have been approved in the US and in Europe. However. With a larger therapeutic toolbox, there is an urgent need for predictive biomarkers to offer the optimal tre

HR-yrket är i ständig förändring och upplever i dagsläget ett stort intresse från organisationer runt om i landet för deras många kompetensområden. Med detta i åtanke är det av vikt att HR-funktionen bemöts på rätt sätt och har de verktyg som behövs för att kunna prestera. Denna studie ämnar därför att besvara två frågor: vilka krav och förväntningar existerar på HR-praktiker från olika sidor av o

The Circular Economy (CE) came into existence due to the increasing environmental concerns produced by the legacy linear economy which consumes too many resources and generates a lot of waste. The CE is initiated on the ideas of reducing, reusing, and recycling resources by utilising the product information. Thus, this study investigates the product information which is to be carried by Digital Pr

Företagsnytta är en del av influensregeln i 4 kap. 2 § expropriationslagen (ExL). Influensregeln innebär ett undantag från grundregeln i ersättningsreglerna i 4 kap. ExL som säger att fastighetens marknadsvärdeminskning ska ersättas. Regeln innebär att i de fall expropriationsföretaget föranlett en värdeförändring av någon betydelse ska värderingen av fastigheten göras utan beaktning av influensenThis report aims to investigate how the legislation regarding the positive effect from an enterprise for the conduct of which a property unit is expropriated, in chapter 4 section 2 of the Swedish Expropriation Act, is used in practice. The rule is an exception to the main compensation rules, which means that a landowner should be fully compensated in the event of expropriation. The rule has prove

Through adopting a methods triang

I denna rapport innebär \textit{pollinering}, eller \textit{pollination}, att ett djur transporterar pollen från en växt till en annan växt. Djuren som utför pollineringen (ofta insekter) kallas \textit{pollinerare}, eller \textit{pollinatörer}, och växterna sägs bli \textit{pollinerade}. Det uppskattas att omkring 90\% av alla kända växtarter, och 35\% av all odling av grödor, behöver pollineringWhile pollination is essential for many plant species and ecosystem functions, pollinator populations worldwide are declining. This decline is largely due to abiotic changes in the environment: climate change and other anthropogenic impacts, such as pesticides and land use change. Against this background, I investigate the effects of introducing a non-native pollinator species ("substituting

Bhutan is the world’s most mountainous country which comes with some logistical difficulties. Due to slow transportation times and lackluster food preservation are the post-harvest losses high which especially affects the rural parts of Bhutan negatively. Solar Food: Reducing post-harvest losses through improved solar drying, is a project set out to design a low-cost solar powered food dryer to im

Under de senaste åren har det skett betydande framsteg inom teknikområdet artificiell intelligens (AI). AI är ett komplext tekniskt område som involverar utveckling av mjuk- och programvara med förmåga att efterlikna de kognitiva egenskaper som normalt associeras med människor. Teknikutvecklingen på området förväntas föra med sig stora ekonomiska och sociala fördelar, men är också förenad med riskIn recent years, significant technological advancements have been made in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). AI is a complex technical domain that involves the development of software and hardware capable of mimicking the cognitive abilities normally associated with humans. Technological advancements in AI are expected to bring about substantial economic and social benefits. However, these
