Research methods in language policy and planning : a practical guide

Language policy and planning (LPP) is one of the fastest growing sub-disciplines of applied linguistics. This book is the first volume that is exclusively devoted to research methods in language policy. As in other areas of applied linguistics, LPP scholars have drawn upon an array of research methods from a range of disciplines. This book is designed as a practical roadmap for those methods. Each

Movement patterns and displacement of a soil insect

Popular Abstract in Swedish En insekts rörelsemönster i en värld av dofter Jag har videofilmat hur en marklevande insekt, Protaphorura armata, rör sig på en plan yta, hur de gör när de stöter på hinder, dofter från mat, artfränder och fiender. Jag har också använt matematiska modeller för att beskriva deras rörelsemönster. P. armata är en s.k. hoppstjärt men saknar förmågan att hoppa som flertaleMovement and dispersal are important determinants of the spatial distribution and persistence of animal populations in a heterogeneous environment. I studied the small-scale movement pattern of a soil-living insect, Protaphorura armata (Collembola) by using a video-equipment. I added chemical cues, food and conspecifics to their environment and evaluated the effects of external cues on the movemen

An algebraic/analytic method for reconstruction from image correspondences

A method for the reconstruction and motion problems is presented, under the assumption that a number of point correspondences in a pair of images are known. A geometric and algebraic theory is based on invariance properties of point configuration under affine and projective transformations. In particular, a characterization of those image pairs which correspond to the same point configuration in a

Probing the linguistic encoding of placement and removal events in Swedish

This paper explores the linguistic encoding of placement and removal events in Swedish. Drawing on elicited spoken data, it provides a unified approach to caused motion descriptions. The results show uniform syntactic behaviour of placement and removal descriptions and a consistent asymmetry between placement and removal in the semantic specificity of verbs. The results also reveal three further s
